All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.
Why Having a Crush On Someone Is the Worst!
A Crush. According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, a crush is an "intense and usually passing infatuation." Passing, being the key word there. I'm sure many of you have had crushes before and it's either worked out or not so much. If your crush liked you back, that's great! I'm so happy for you guys! But this... this is for those who haven't been able to be successful with their crushes. Those that are constantly tossing and turning at nights, hoping, waiting for their crush to notice them, talk to them, or even just a simple wave that would make their hearts flutter.

Is Online Dating Good or Bad for Society?
I’ll never forget my first online date. It went very well. Nothing weird happened. It was a normal date. With a pretty normal girl. Even though I was partially expecting something bad to happen, nothing did. See there’s this dumb stereotype that online dating is dangerous and you’re gonna meet weird ass people who are gonna rape you or tell you their life story 15 minutes after meeting you. Now, for the most part, I’ve been very fortunate in the online dating department. In fact, me and my current girlfriend met on OkCupid (if she knew I was telling you this though I probably wouldn’t have a girlfriend anymore), and I understand that most people who’ve used online dating services such as, Tinder, POF, OkCupid, Match, bumble, have had some pretty fucked up experiences. Especially girls, beause some guys are literal pieces of shit and should be flushed down the toilet of prison to be-butt fucked for 20 to 30 years with the possibility of parole.

Love at First Conversation
I laid in an unfamiliar bed that squeaked in response to every breath I took. My head rested inches away from a penis-shaped rocket ship that was carefully sketched in pencil on the wall. I stared up, admiring how the sun skates across the naked ceiling, flirting with each crystal throughout the room, birthing rainbows that stretched corner to corner. My motto, “Grow through what you go through,” tossed and turned in the back of my mind trying to get comfortable in its new environment: college.

One-Year Relationship Gifts
So I've never been in a long-term relationship, but my boyfriend and I are coming to hit our one year mark. When I realized this, I thought to myself, 'What in the world do I get this boy to show him how much I love him?' There's nothing I'd rather do than show him how much I care for him and our past year together. So I did some research, and here's what I found:

Asexual Dating
There's something that's always terrifying about being on a first date. Most of the time, I'm quite open about my sexuality beforehand, knowing that it'll be a deal breaker for almost every person I meet. If someone asks me on a date, I'll typically blurt it out without even thinking because I don't want anyone getting uncomfortable or pushing me into something that I don't want. They usually lose interest.

Exploring the Worlds of Non-Monogamy and Kink
A few months ago, I decided to embark on a new journey. A journey into the worlds of consensual non-monogamy and kink. I am in my 30s and I’ve been in long-term relationships most of my life but monogamy wasn’t working out particularly well for me. In a romantic relationship I am a people-pleaser: I lose my sense of self too easily and get very bogged down with the shoulds.

A Most Beautiful Lady
It was a sunny Saturday morning one November. I had many things to do that day. After all, Thanksgiving was less than two weeks away and I had much to do before I could chomp into any turkey on my plate in the coming fortnight. They had to get things done.
