Sometimes, due to human nature, we just have a problem with ending something we've gotten comfortable with. Even though we know what we're doing isn't right for us, it would just be more of a hassle to learn to live a new way. I've done it before. I lived a life where I was…

Do You Like Him Or Do You Like The Attention?
Loneliness can cause a lot of confusion. It's not just being alone, but being happy sometimes and sad others, missing the feeling of someone laying beside you, of always having someone to turn to - it jumbles up your brain and heart to the point where clarity is a small speck in the distance. It…

Does Online Dating Lack Spontaneity?
Meet cute: a scene in film, television, etc. in which a future romantic couple meets for the first time in a way that is considered adorable, entertaining, or amusing. Because I base so many of my falling-in-love fantasies off of love novels and star crossed movies, I've always pictured my moment with "the one" as a…
Having Faith
The world is filled with cynicism and pessimism. The news mostly shows depressing wars abroad or even in our own country. Our generation is consistently put down for not being good enough. Everyone makes the future look so bleak. It's easy to just adopt that attitude. To look at things with a half-empty glass point…

Who doesn't like to win? We are wired to be the best we can be and it's a very disrupting feeling to know you're coming in second to someone - especially in relationships. It's a hookup culture, we know that a lot of people are hooking up with more than one person at a time.…

Breaking Up Because I’m Happy
Republished from 4/19/15 Confused? I think a lot of people in our generation are. I'm not going to start talking about how I'm 100% clear on what relationships should be like and how we should live our lives. For the most part, I have no idea. I can only dictate how I'm feeling and go…
Falling In Love With Everyone and Everything
Republished from 4/5/15 Everywhere we turn, there are interesting people. Walk into class, stumble into the bar, open up twitter, and scroll through Instagram. You can find someone you have something in common with in every nook of your life. So how do you choose and how do you settle? I don't think our generation…

My Millennial Work Ethic
The stereotypical millennial is lazy, entitled, ruining relationships, and most of the things that were built for us. This stereotype mostly comes from the fact that we do things differently than our parents. I went to college, got an internship when I graduated, got a job then got a better job. Not exactly what I…
