dating
All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.
Young Love
That feeling when you receive that text message whilst you're trying to concentrate on your lesson in high school. When it's dinner time and all you want to do is text him rather than socialise with your friends. The funny feelings you get when he messages you. You just can't beat it. And then, you guys make it official at the age of 16. The world at your feet, beginning your life in adult hood.

Why
I’ll be the first to say it: I’m sick of age gap apologists. I’m sick of people seeing no problem with today’s dating era of ages. I’m sick of people not knowing what legit consent is and what constitutes as "okay," to the point that people have to sit there and explain what the problem is to college age adults and over.

What It Means to Be in a NSA Relationship
Being in a no strings attached (NSA) relationship is like breaking the rules, but getting away with it. Meaning you're not in a fully committed relationship that only consists of pleasure and excitement. There's no love behind it, not being dedicated to this person, and you can also date other people while having an NSA relationship. That's why many men and women are so into it, but it's not for everyone. Not many people can handle a casual relationship because it's possible to end up falling for this person and that's not what having an NSA relationship is about.

A Love Letter
It feels like it was just yesterday that I saw you for the first time. Warm brown eyes filled with life and laughter, you carved your way into my heart and haven’t left since. I cannot imagine loving you more than I do at this very moment and yet I know that in the time to come, I will love you even more. I know that I should probably be weighed down by the intensity of the feelings that I have for you, but never have I felt more complete.

Saturday Night Bible Study
Who has been dragged to bible study when they where young? We all had to do it, and sometimes it was even fun. Fast forward about ten years. I had just gotten out of a very abusive relationship. I wasn't looking for a new boyfriend. This guy seemed pretty nice, so I had decided I would hang out with him a bit. For a few weeks we would just sit out on my porch and talk. He was easy to talk to. He seemed like a good 'ole country boy. Right down to the dirty cowboy hat. He even had a can of tobacco in his back pocket and called me ma'am. Sounds like the beginning of a cute country movie, right? Wrong! So very wrong.

My Second Love
The first time I fell in love was utterly disappointing. I don't really think I was ever in "love," at least not the real kind of enduring love. The kind of love that makes you care more about that person and their wellbeing and about how you can support them. No, this love was all about me and what I wanted from it. In the end, it festered and died as he had found someone else to fill the needs that I neglected to.

Long Distance
My boyfriend and I have been together for two and half years now. We have the same sense of humour, work well together and both have similar ideas for the future. For me, he is perfect. It has, however, not been all plain sailing. The main problem in our relationship is that there are about one hundred and fifty-three miles between us. Long distance can cause a strain on our relationship. There is not being able to see my boyfriend as much as I would like, as well as the time and money that goes into traveling. But when you are really committed to each other, there are things that make it all worthwhile.
