Give Me a Break!

My friend Elliot called me “unique” today. Maybe not for the reasons I would have liked, but he definitely had a point. We were talking about my relationship issues. Yes, I will admit I have issues - the biggest being my tremendous need for alone time.
Nearly every relationship begins and ends the [...]

They’re Not All Jerks

You’re all well aware of the many losers I’ve dated, but there have been a few nice guys along the way too. And David is by far the nicest.
We met at Cotton Eyed Joe back in 2000. I was hanging out with a large group of people from an AOL chat room at [...]

Overlooking the Past

I have always believed in choosing my friends based on the people they are today - not what they were like in the past. After all, none of us are perfect, and we all have the ability to change. A few years ago, I would have told you that I have always selected [...]

Women Helping Women Avoid Jerks

It’s no secret that I’ve had a long history of crappy relationships. I always seem to meet the jerkiest guys on the face of the Earth. There was the abusive ex-husband and the psycho boyfriend. And of course, we can’t forget the guy who pretended to be a devoted boyfriend for nearly [...]

“What exactly is a soulmate?”
I wrote A Message for My Soulmate nearly three years ago. The post gives my definition of a soulmate as well as [...]

A Few Thoughts on Love

The girlfriend of a guy I used to date has been reading my blogs.  As much as I’d like to think that she finds my writing interesting and humorous, I’m 99% sure that isn’t the case.  Most girls aren’t wired that way. 
With the exception of one, my exes’ girlfriends have never been fond of me.  [...]

Of Beauty, Spiders, and Men

While browsing through my Google search terms today, I realized that my blog is often accessed for advice on beauty, spiders, and men.  I consider myself to be quite knowledgeable on beauty topics, but when it comes to spiders and men, I’m not so sure anyone should turn to me for advice.
I have decided, however, [...]
