All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.
Six Truths You Wish You Knew Before You Started Dating
Let me get this out of the way first. I am by no means a love guru, I don't have the idea of #relationshipgoals nailed down by any means. I don't completely understand what makes some relationships work and others not. I come from a line of imperfect relationships in my family; infidelity, divorce, lack of communication, and other things that get in the way of making relationships work.

Dear Someone I Thought Was Special
So it’s been 6 weeks I believe and every day from word go, I have been afraid. When we first started talking, I was relaxed and happy that I found someone I can have a giggle with, talk to and could actually see myself being with for a long time. I told you this, I opened up and you did to. Constantly texting, I was even texting you while I was "on dates" with other guys. To be honest, I wasn’t interested in them, I wanted you. When I became yours after two weeks of constant texting and phone calls, you asked me to be yours on our first date. There was something so special and real between us. Since then it feels like we haven’t been together 6 weeks but a year or two from the way you have started to behave.

She Speaks
Everyone on this god forsaken planet was given a voice. Some can’t figure out how to use it, for the life of them. Others don’t know when to stop using it, and listen. I suppose I follow under both categories, or directly in the middle. At least that’s where I think I would be placed. Growing up I was the youngest of four children, there was enough talking going around that anything I said was quickly disregarded or ignored and yet they wonder why I’m so “introverted.” I have a lot to say, I do. A lot goes through my mind, but more so complex thoughts and deeper conversations than just daily chit chat topics.

Together as One
Isn't it hard, knowing who to trust? The easy way out, in your mind, seems to be to avoid giving trust to anyone. But from first hand experience, that is never the way, and almost certainly does not help. There are a wide number of reasons why you may not feel up to trusting anyone ever again, there are plenty of reasons why you may feel the world is against you.

My Love
It all started with a smile and a hug. I remember looking into your beautiful hazel eyes, they shimmered like diamonds in bright light. You were oh so beautiful, like no one I had ever seen before. You pulled me close and with my head against your chest, all I could hear was your heartbeat. I fell in love with you the moment that I met you. You made me that happiest I had ever been, but we were only strangers. We were cruising around, it was a warm sunny day in California, I had the beautiful view of clear skies and tall palm trees, the wind flowing through my hair, but all I could focus is on was your breathtaking smile. That day I knew you were all I was missing.

Signs That You're Not a Priority to Him
There's nothing quite as hurtful as getting the sinking feeling that your partner doesn't see you as a priority, especially if you really want to be with him. I ought to know; the father of my child did that until there was no semblance of self-esteem left in me.

Why The "Beta" Male Is The Better Male...
I have come to notice as a woman that the majority of other women seem to want to go for the "Alpha" male, as far as physical attraction goes. The "Alpha" male is the big, buff "let's go to the gym" sort and most women seem to lose their shit over these kinds of men. You see it all over in the media, whether it be on the internet or magazine covers or even, as I saw recently on a calendar, to support local charities. I have nothing personal against big, buff, burly men, however, they're simply not my type. At all.

The Fire Sparked: Part 1
Five years later and I never thought I would be where I am or with whom I am. It all started back in November 2012; one night I was out with friends and I met Him. Now, just like every relationship it is never a fairy tale. Even if it was like a Disney love story there is still always sadness. Now, as we all know, the start of a relationship is always so fun and exciting. The adventure we all look for and with all of the dreams to come with it. But does it ever truly happen?
