Terms such as "hooking up" and "friends with benefits" are pretty common these days. The hookup culture we live in means less relationships because our time is focused elsewhere. Whether we are career driven, education focused, dream chasing, or just plain selfish. There is a time in our life where relationships just aren't possible so…

“We’re Talking” Isn’t A Relationship Status
A lot of people have a problem with the way millennials date. Or the lack of dating that occurs. Sure, we live in a hookup culture. We choose one night stands over lasting relationships. We honestly have too many people to meet and too much to do. But in many ways, we date just like everyone…

DON’T Hate on Valentine’s Day
It's easy to get into a funk around Valentine's Day when you're single. Everyone else is getting presents, love, awesome dinners. And if you're lucky, your mom sent you a care package with a gift card and candy (which is still pretty clutch) but you're still really single. Really, it's just a day that's going…
I Hate Texting
It's no secret that everyone is glued to their phones. Some people love to bash the way we use technology. They get aggravated over cell phone use at dinner and kids always taking selfies. But really, it's no different than when we used to plop ourselves down in front of the tv or spend 45…
First Impressions Aren’t Important
You're going on a job interview, a first date, or meeting the parents. And you're supposed to make a good first impression. Because first impressions are important - that's what they say. But I don't think first impressions are important at all, because I mostly see them as a nice little white lie. All a…
Single You Vs. You In A Relationship
People often speak of change so negatively. I can specifically remember multiple conversations throughout middle school, high school, college, and even now where one of my friends looked at me with narrow eyes and said "you've changed" with such disgust. That's what we do, that's what growing up is. You change due to your circumstances.…
Nice Guys Don’t Always Finish Last
“Nice guys finish last.” Why do I always hear that? There is some sort of stereotype in the world that says girls like to be treated like dirt, so they intentionally find the guys that are going to hurt them and ignore all of those wonderful ‘nice guys’ who are pining for them. First of…
First Date Freakout
If you're calm before a first date, please let me know your secret because I become a mess of anxiety and nerves. Most people freak out. It has to do with a variety of things. You're meeting up with someone in a new way. If you knew them before, you're taking it to another level.…
How To Date Casually
I've always had a hard time having anything but a one track mind. If I'm committed to something or someone, then that's that and I can't think any other way. We casually date because dating is hard. Meeting one person at a time, only to be disappointed after the date and having to wait a…
Dating Is Depressing
We're often told that all good things must come to an end. Which just means that every beginning has an ending. So it's easy to look at dating with a negative viewpoint instead of a positive one. This is especially true if you have gone through heart break. Every relationship comes to a break up.…
