Tinder Nightmare
Written January 18, 2018. Tinder. It's where all the wrong people look for peopleFor all the wrong reasons...I thought I learned my lesson.After every season's worth of liars,Of emotionally manipulative people.Do they not know that one does not necessarily NEEDTo be on a DATING app for the sole purpose of intercourse?And every time I turned them down, they'd beat me downAdding insults to injuries of memories past.It's their own fault that their own games never last,Never getting past my own cold, logical mind.It’s my own fault for letting it hurt me more than it needs to.

Relationships, Learn and Build
My relationship ideas and tips are based partly on my previous relationships but mainly on the present one. We have both had good times and bad times in the past and therefore are trying to make sure this one is all good by bringing things from the past that have worked and by trying not to repeat mistakes. Some things that didn’t work in the past were mostly or totally the fault of the other person so can be easily eradicated but memories can last so we must make the other person realize that the past will stay in the past and past poor treatment won’t be replicated.

He Followed Me Home
This happened when I was 14. My friends all had dates to homecoming and I didn't, so they decided to convince this guy, lets call him DeathBomb (DB for short), to ask me to homecoming. He was nineteen. I wouldn't have agreed had I known that, but I didn't, so I did. I had no clue who this guy was. I had seen him around, but I didn't know anything about him.So we get to homecoming, my dad dropped me off and told me that if I needed anything, to call him. The night was... okay, for the most part. He was a bit touchy, but I shut him down hard. Then, the grade dances came on. If you don't know what that is, each grade has a song, and only that grade dances when that song comes on. They called for seniors, and DB left me standing there awkwardly to dance with his friends. That's when I realized that he was a senior. I was a little uncomfortable, being so young, but I waited until afterwards to talk to him.He told me he was 19, and, like this was no big deal, swept me into a slow song. Right back to touching on me. I asked if he knew I was 14. He did. He said that was awesome. Wow! Okay, yeah, time to text my dad and run girl run!

My Dating Disaster
His picture popped up on my screen—a tall, dark, and handsome enough guy with an air of intellect and a suave smile. He was a PHD student in Physics, a fact I found both intimidating and arousing.

The Wild One
Unexpected is an understatement. To say I wasn't looking for anyone or anything, also an understatement. I wanted to be solo for the rest of my life. My scars luminous and unwavering. I had no want to let anyone see them, let alone heal them.

Blind Date
I was 21 and working full time at a Title Loan store. My manager and I became really close and turned into best friends. She was there to listen to all my guy trouble and let me vent whenever I needed. One day she told me her husband had a friend she wanted to set me up with. I was so desperate at the time I told her sure.

What Is an INTJ Relationship?
Don't let the all caps scare you. INTJ is just an acronym for a certain personality type: Introverted, Intuitive, Thinking, and Judging. It is a personality description that is based on something called the Myers-Briggs test; think of it like reading up on your zodiac sign. So what are INTJs like and what is an INTJ relationship?

Payment
When people talk about having the worst date ever it usually goes something like he or she was so rude, he or she was ugly, they looked nothing like their picture, the person was a narcissist, they were boring, or they didn’t pay for dinner. Well this unfortunate tale is nothing like that.

I Solemnly Swear!
Last night I made a promise to myself that I really hope to keep, for my own good. The promise was that I will never again be bothered with someone that I have to “chase,” and that under no circumstances will ever go after someone who doesn't seem to be interested in me as much as I am interested in him.

Plenty of Fish...?
Now, I think it’s safe to say that over the past eighteen months, my "love life," or rather lack thereof, has become somewhat of a laughing stock and a subject of amusement amongst my friends.

Raging Richard
Imagine a young, reasonably attractive, shorter than expected male, with the personality of Victor Meldrew on steroids. Now, for those of you who are unfamiliar with our Vickers, he was an old man who moaned about everything, usually with the phrase “I don’t believe it!!”

A Night I Can't Forget
If you’ve ever been nervous before a first date, or had the feeling, "maybe I shouldn’t do this," you are not alone. This was years ago, but the memories of these events have always stayed with me.
