Making the decision to remove someone from your life is hard. You probably have a very lengthy and complicated past with this person. A past that once may have involved happiness and love but began to bring out the worst in you. If someone in your life is putting you down instead of picking you…
Some relationships fail. Some relationships succeed. But how are you supposed to know what the outcome will be? There are too many variables when it comes to love. The timing, the emotions, the other players. I just feel like I've seen more relationships fail than I've seen succeed. Therefore, I'm a relationship cynic. We're constantly…
It's hard to imagine that every person that we pass on the street has a complex and intricate life, just like our own. You don't know them - but they have their own web of lies they've spun too. They have people they care about too. They have problems too. And those people you left…
It's been one year since I posted my first Hookup Culture article on WordPress and I couldn't be happier!! Hookup Culture started as a school project for my New Media Concentration.

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…
