After days and weeks of swiping, I finally started chatting with a very handsome guy who just so happened to be from my hometown.

This is what happens when you don’t listen to your friends people…take it from me! Dame Dessa had it all spelled out in Five Terrible Tinder Cliches to Avoid but did I listen when Mr. Ab-licious asked me out? Nooooooo. That would be too easy. It wasn’t enough that his profile clearly stated he was a workout-maniac, much unlike myself, but he proceeded to send me ab and nearly naked self photos on the days leading up to our big date. Did I pay attention to any of those red flags? Of course not. Continue reading

I’m a complete wuss, I’ll be totally honest. Somewhere along life’s path, I became terrified to tell people how I truly feel. I’m scared of hurting others, I’m scared of not being accepted and most of all – I’m scared of hurting myself. Well, I’ve had a realization and I’m making this my 2014 resolution (a little late I know), I’m vowing to be more honest about my feelings with everyone. Here are some reasons why you, too, should open up about how you feel. Continue reading

We’re about to have our first sexy sleepover and I’m a nervous wreck! Continue reading
