All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.

5 of Today's Popular Dating Apps Debunked
Serial dating is definitely not a hobby or pastime of mine, it is simply a means to an end—the dating app end. I serial date myself to death in hopes of finding that one date that makes it all worth while. The one date for whom I would gladly delete every single last app, so we could live happily ever after and in love forever. Until then, the search continues and my dating stories continue making my friends laugh till they cry. All this dating probably makes me an expert by now, especially when it comes to using all the dating apps available in the App Store. I’ve used them all, way more than anyone should ever use in this lifetime and the next. Here is what I found in my dating app experiences and what I think about each of the apps in comparison to the rest.

Being the Other Woman
When someone doesn't feel loved, they might go looking for it. They could even make the mistake of looking for it in the wrong places with the wrong people. It just happens that's exactly what I did. Everyone makes mistakes and mine was falling for a person l knew I would never have. What is it with feeling a rush when you do something wrong but exciting? Why do we feel so powerful while doing a thing you know you'll eventually regret? It's these questions I ask myself to this day. I no longer feel anything for what happened, but I still wonder about it.

Am Byth
I can’t remember what made me want to message you. It was almost instinctive, I just knew I had to message you, I had to have you in my life. I wasn’t sure why but I acted upon it anyway. Everything that had happened in my life, lead me to that moment where I found you.

My First Date Since My Split
The dry, bubbly champagne made its way down my throat. My nerves were trying to creep in, so I decided to quiet them with a drink. My confidence isn't what it used to be; being in a relationship for over three years makes you lose some of that. Luckily, I had at least shaved my legs and underarms a day ago. That was a nightmare. Imagine a vacant house, whose poor lawn was never maintained; that's how I felt. I had lost all my drive to keep myself looking pretty; that's what unhappiness will do to you. My fingernail polish was chipped, my roots were growing in, and any where hair would grow, it just kept growing because I just didn't care to shave. I always joked that I am a hippie at heart, and it is true to an extent. But the reality of it all is I just let myself go. I didn't have anyone to impress, and I was so over my relationship that I quit caring to impress him as well.

Date Gone Very Bad
When I’m around my friend Suja, I tend to make bad decisions. We were out one night shooting pool at a bar, and as usual, we attracted attention. Two single girls—one Asian and one Indian—who were actually good at the game playing alone are bound to catch a few men’s eyes.

Can Love Survive?
It was a day like no other, Rick was sitting on his bed thinking about what to say to Emily. The last time they texted they had a huge fight; he had gotten mad at her for sexting another guy. He missed her though.

What Polyamory Has Taught Me
I have been married twice and divorced twice. Why is that? I could go on about who was at fault. Was it me or them? But I won’t go there. Plus I’m relatively sure I’ve done that in another story. But one thing I can say with certainty is that there was little to no trust in either marriage. As a touring musician, it would have made a lot of sense to marry women who had no problem with having an entertainer for a spouse. I should have considered that, but instead, I was blinded by the booty. Or rather, booties. So anyway, due to that lack of trust and honesty in the marriages, I rarely if ever felt okay with being my authentic self in the relationships.

Being the Girl That Stayed With an Unfaithful Partner
Throughout my past, a lot of things have happened. I had boyfriends, I had relationship problems, and personal problems, all of this causing mental and trust issues that eventually would bite me in the ass. Throughout those personal and romantic relationships, trust would be broken many times, which kept me from wanting to be in love. I hadn't said "I love you" to a boyfriend since my first real relationship. That is, until I met Mike.*

Wanderlustful
There is something scary about getting involved with someone who doesn't live in your country, who has no intention of staying and, in a year's time, intends to fly home, which is halfway across the world. A feeling of dread at the beginning of the relationship that makes you not want to give yourself over even though you heart does. This person before you lights you up in a way that other people around you don't and you laugh wholeheartedly and enjoy walking in the dark, frigid cold for three hours because his hand is warm.

2017
Going into 2017 I make sure to be as positive as I can be. Calvin and I are still talking, but this time we call every night and talk to each other until we fall asleep. It is very different talking on the phone with him, because he likes to talk dirty and have phone sex. Me being me, I have never done that with anyone before so it was quite weird and interesting. Of course he doesn’t need to know that I am just pretending to moan. ;)
