dating
All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.
Literal Heartache
Dating is always somewhat difficult. It isn't easy, trying to navigate how your life can fit in with someone else's. There's a lot of factors that go into it: whether or not you can trust the other person, if your personalities mesh well, if you guys have a similar idea of what you want out of life, the list goes on. It takes two people taking time and energy to figure each other out, to get to know one another.

Paul Joseph Watson Asks, "Are You a Young Man Who Has Given Up on Women and Why?"
I am a young man who recently turned 24 (in October of this year). I enjoy a lot of the same things that other guys do (video games, music, movies, comic books and so on). Throughout my life, society has perceived me as "eccentric" (and there have been others who simply thought I was on the autism spectrum somewhere). While I do share some symptoms with Aspies (mainly with how socially awkward I was as a teenager, my tendency to zone in a small group of interests and my occasional slowness to process information), I'd like to think that just because I have some commonalities with autistic people doesn't mean that I must be one myself.

Mercy
My sheets smell like gun oil. You could never seem to wash the ghost of bullets from your palm lines. Rifle stains spell out a destiny across the map of your hands. I only hope you remember that my name is written there too. I worry about oil spills, the traces your hands leave behind, painting war between my fingers, through my hair. My new perfume is someone else’s battle, a second hand smoke I’m trying not to choke on.

A Useless Crush
Let's begin! I was about 19–20 years old when I decided to socialize with a guy a few years older than me. IT WAS POINTLESS! All I knew as to why I hung out with him a few times was because he was handsome. He basically lived around the same neighborhood as me. As a teenager I had the butterflies for him, but I was young so I was not going to try to make moves. Once I hit 19, I was like, why not shoot my shot. Swissshhhh! Of course I scored and got his number. Anyways, I learned he was nice, polite, and the worst of all, too needy and sensitive. I learned more, but you'll have to keep reading.

Are You Worth the Commitment?
Looking back at my relationships, I can honestly say each guy I dated would agree that I gave my all (I would say that I love hard, but I'm starting to think that everyone either loves hard or not at all). Like many women, I saw myself being a wife to whoever the lucky guy was at the moment. Even when I knew deep down we didn't belong together, I tried to be an amazing girlfriend. What is an amazing girlfriend you ask? Well I'll be happy to run down the list: understanding, supportive, honest, helpful, considerate, compassionate, aiming to please... you know, A Wife!

My Heart, My Love, My Forever and Always
Being in a relationship is nice. It's a step closer of starting your own family. That is, if you are like me, and you date someone, not based on their looks or how much money they have, but that you could see yourself marrying-having a future.

Beyonce Does Not Tolerate Cheaters...And Neither Should You!
Beyoncé’s “Irreplaceable” is a mid-tempo pop track with a smooth R&B flow that comes so naturally to Texas-born recording artist Beyoncé Knowles. Her emotional power and extraordinary control modernizes the timeless soul of rhythm and blues.

Netflix And Chill Out: How I Kept My Long Distance Relationship Alive
Moving abroad can be a struggle for anyone, let alone when you don't speak the language, you're horrible with directions, and you'll be leaving your nearest and dearest behind. Believe me though, relationships can survive that short hop over the ocean and a small plane ride — don't ask me about further away, Berlin to Manchester is only a two-hour flight. Where 2016 has been a year of sadness and death for many, I strived to keep my relationship alive and make the most out of a difficult situation. I don't expect any medals, but I am accepting bouquets of flowers.
