This month I turn 29, my last year in my 20s. Insanely enough, I started this blog when I was 21. So I’m creeping up on 8 years writing on this blog. In that time, we’ve had a name change from Hookup Culture to Rosie Culture. I was a recently-dumped broken-hearted sorority girl trying to…
Not right this second - but think about it. Hate is the easiest emotion to come across when you've been hurt. It's the only way to truly feel towards someone who just crushed everything you believed in for so long. When someone initially cheats on you, breaks up with you, or wrongs you in a…
