I have a problem with staying in one place. I have a constant need to be in different places and meeting new people. The world is so big and I find it so hard to believe that we are meant to stay in one place for our whole life. How do you date a constant…

Accepting The Love You Think You Deserve
Once upon a time I got dumped and just did not know how to deal. I felt like I had failed the relationship, my boyfriend, myself. I thought I didn't really deserve to fall in love again - like I had missed my chance. And time and time again I was thrown into dating scenarios where…
You’ll Know When You Know
It’s no secret that I’ve been hesitant when it comes to relationships. After getting hurt by my first big love, I was really unsure how to move forward. When you think someone is “the one” and they turn out to totally be the worst - you start to question your judgment for a little. So…

What I’ve Learned In My 6 Year Relationship
One of my favorite parts of my relationship is the realizations I’ve had along the way. Six years is a long time, and hopefully anyone would grow in that amount of time, but I’m especially proud of myself for growing the right way alongside my fiancé. My history of love is tough. Sometimes I think…

Choosing Love
I think we all experience love differently. I see it every day, there is no one way to love someone. And I'm not just talking about family love vs. friends love vs. marriage love - I'm saying that every relationship and every person who is in love does it differently. My first big love was…
