In The Meantime
July 9, 2023Loneliness is starting to creep in like an old familiar friend. I don’t particularly like hanging out with this old friend but I know that I have to sit with this boring killjoy in order to feel what I need to feel. When this jackass comes around it causes me to feel vulnerable to making bad decisions. I want to escape from what I’m feeling and numb the pain. Full disclosure—I caved a few weeks ago. I was out with a few friends and ran into the last “situationship”. I knew he was going to be there and I had…
Re-Marriage
I’ve had a couple of weeks to process (and admittedly ruminate) on my recent “encounters” with men. When I meet someone that I’m attracted to and they are seemingly interested in me, I often size them up in just a…
Situationships
Well, it’s been a while since I’ve written but I felt the need to get my thoughts and feelings down on paper to help me process the shit show that is my love life. Around this time last year,…
Reflection
Lately I’ve been doing a lot of self-reflection. Looking in the mirror can often be difficult when you don’t like what you see. I suppose everyone has parts of themselves they don’t like, but I find that my inner voices…

Wants vs. Needs
I’m beginning to think that I’ve past the point of no return. I have entered the sweet spot of enjoying my freedom living the single life. Trust me it takes a lot to get here but I’ve finally settled into…
Who Needs a Man?
It has been months since my last post and I was beginning to question if I’d ever write again or have anything to write about. Since I wrote about my failed “Cuffing Season” back in November, I had to quickly…
Cuffing Season is Coming
Truth be told, I had never heard the term “cuffing season” until recently. For those of you (like me) who thought it might correlate to cold and flu season—well, let me enlighten you on yet another colloquialism related to dating.…
Lost in Uncertainty
Many of us are struggling in some kind of way. You may be noticing more anxiety, a constant low-grade level of stress, irritability, anger or sadness. I’m here to tell you that you’re not alone and it’s a normal reaction…
Love in the Time of Corona
Trying to find love in the middle of a pandemic just lessened my already dismal odds by about eight-five percent (and that is probably generous). Which is why I’m not going to even bother. In the beginning of the quarantine,…
Finding Clarity Through the Fog
Finding Clarity Through the Fog It’s been months since the last time I wrote but today although uncertain of what the hell I want to write about I felt the need to try to express the emotions that are coming…
