All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.
Modern Dating
As someone who has spent more of their life single than in a relationship I've just really been having some thoughts about the dating world, what it has become, and is there really any hope to fix it. I know that what works for one person might n0t work for someone else, but I wanted to share my thoughts on this incase anyone felt the same.
Kimmiekins4Published about a month ago in HumansI dressed up for my husband and ended the night crying
Thursday, when my husband left, I was determined to greet him at home in a special way. I put on the lingerie I bought. I looked at myself in the mirror and felt ridiculous. I told myself I was being silly, that I was sexy and beautiful. I forced myself out of my comfort zone; I wanted to feel sexy and seen. I looked in the mirror again, considering changing. Should I switch to a different pair of panties? No, I'll wear them as they are. Oh my god, I look ridiculous, but my at least my chest looks nice like this. I fixed my hair. I poured myself a whisky and sat on the couch to wait for you. I looked in the mirror again, almost giving up. I reminded myself that it was just my low self-esteem talking.

Valentine's Day arrives, enveloping the world in its romantic aura. I sit alone in my room, the soft moonlight casting a gentle glow, providing the perfect ambiance for reflection. My thoughts drift to Q, our relationship, and the intricate dance of love that we shared.

Addiction
I'M SORRY my depression consumed us. I'm even more sorry yours didn't. If it had we could have been over a lot sooner. Not that I wanted an end at all. But because that's where we ended up anyways, we might as well have saved us a lot of time. People talk about cherishing or focusing on the good stuff... and let me tell yah, having been outside the good stuff for a while I really wish none of it ever happened. This isn't usual for me. I like to think I'm rather the optimist. But with you babe, I spent all my optimism. This isn't to say I didn't have a blast, feel love more intensely then ever imaginable... that's the issue really. I believed you were my one, my soulmate, twinflame, kindred spirit, partner in crime, better half, companion, lover, any other names I'm missing? Someone I've been with in many lives before this one maybe... (I don't know if I believe that sort of thing anymore, but with you I did.)
Hayley MattoPublished about a month ago in Humans My Family and Our Double "Marriage"
I grew up in a broken home. And it wasn't the best experience - but not because my family was broken. It wasn't the best experience because the people involved (mostly a dead-beat biological father) were... shitty. But I grew up with a strong resolve. I knew that if I ever had kids - my life wasn't going to be perfect and I knew the chances of a 'whole' family were slim.

What if we took a much-needed break this year from all the noise and chaos that surrounds us? What if we embraced a Valentine's Day that is filled with privacy, intimate moments, and genuine expressions of love? In a world that constantly bombards us with distractions and loud celebrations, it is refreshing to imagine a day where we can focus on small secrets and cultivate a deeper, more meaningful connection with our loved ones.

In point of fact, they are so frequent that many people who have been with the same spouse for a number of years may be concerned that their partner is becoming disinterested in receiving traditional presents like these.

This February was slightly colder than the last. With heavy rains, flights were backed up til the next morning! She could not make it in and the pattern displayed no signs of direct flights to DAL and all of them holding in a far away city!
Jay LeTron DobbinsPublished about a month ago in HumansMore than love
Valentine's Day has its inner flame. It's incredible that a simple saint (and I don't mean to sound sarcastic, seriously!) can produce so much love in the world, transformed into different forms, ironies and plagiarisms. While you're busy scouring the internet for chocolate and flower deals, let's take a tour of love traditions and curiosities around the world.
The Trouble With Princes
The man I love is far from perfect. Perfect, it should be noted, is a rather dangerous word. Perfectionism often keeps us from completing that which we have set out to accomplish, for the fear that it will not be taken as we'd like it to. Some would argue that this notion tarnishes the very definition of perfection, in the same sense that attempting to control beauty inherently will end up corrupting it in its essence. Perfection is a luxury afforded to those who have the privilege of choosing their truths; confectionization of the unsavory:
Friends to Lovers but in Real Life.
I thought that we were both the same with absent fathers and mothers who was a drunk. I know that for me I felt like I couldn’t leave no matter how badly I wanted to or needed to. For you, you wouldn’t leave no matter what. you found solace in your unwavering loyalty as if the stability you provided could compensate for the lack of it in your own life. I wanted to get out of there and as far away as possible but no matter how far I ran, it was just not enough.
