I am about halfway through Mitch Albom’s new book, Have a Little Faith. A nonfiction account of a series of conversations between Mitch and his rabbi, the book does an excellent job of showcasing the similarities between Judaism and Christianity. There is one particular quote that touched me and has stayed with me [...]
Mastering the Art of “I’m Not Interested”
I consider myself to be a pretty open person. In most situations, I’ll say exactly what is on my mind. But when it comes to men, I just can’t bring myself to say three very important words – “I’m not interested”.
Context is key. I am more than willing to say I’m not [...]
Still Going Strong
The boyfriend and I have been together for nearly two months now, and things are going surprisingly well. Those of you who really know me know just what a rarity this is. I usually feel smothered and pressured and just can’t seem to dedicate myself to the relationship. My current situation is [...]
An Odd Turn of Events
As most of you know, my energy was focused on the SPHR exam nearly all year. I talked about focusing on a relationship only after passing the test, and I even had plans of dusting off the old Find Tish a Boyfriend blog. Isn’t it funny how things never quite go according to [...]
The Lovers
I’ve always been intrigued by tarot cards, so I couldn’t pass up this neat little quiz.

Communication Gap
This morning in the grocery store, there was a guy ahead of me in the checkout line. He kept looking at me and smiling. I just smiled back, because that’s what us Tennesseans do, and then went back to reading the tabloid headlines. Every time I glanced back up, he smiled [...]
Unlucky in Love
My relationship history has made it very difficult to trust a man with my heart. In the past nine years, I’ve met a lot of guys – many of them nice men who truly cared for me. But I have been so protective of myself that I’ve pushed them away, choosing instead to [...]
