Five years. Last week, though (like the bad little blogger I’ve been lately) I only just realized, marked five years for me as a blogger. Reflecting on that time, both upon blogging and the content on which I write, I’ve experienced quite a bit of Life over those years… I fell in love. And out [...]

So there I am, sitting on the bus the other morning, minding my own bee’s wax, when I notice the couple sitting next to me. As does the all male contingent sitting all around me, sporting many a scornful face and much eye rolling. See, the couple sitting next to me turned out to be [...]

If Valentine’s Day is supposed to be about love and sex, passion and romance; what does it mean if you don’t have sex with your significant other? Sunday night, I took care in donning my thigh high stockings, lace and silk slip, 5 inch heels, and LBD for dinner with my boyfriend. It was a….hopeful little [...]

I used to believe that romance was about Grand Gestures- things like full-on floral bouquets, hand-scrawled love letters and cards, and thoughtfully planned out dates. A younger me believed romance was a [...]

Last night, my boyfriend sat slumped over my laptop. He was showing me his commitment, his desire to be with me. And I was showing him my openness to change, my desire to be with him. In the wake of our trip to Seattle and Alaska, a decision was reached: no more retreating to our [...]

I’ve found myself doing a lot of thinking lately about relationships and commitment and happiness. In particular, I’ve been wondering if it’s possible for me to have all three at once. And the more I think about it, the more I begin to wonder if my questioning whether happiness and commitment can go hand-in-hand is [...]
