Why You Settle

I had this enlightening conversation with a new friend last night and it was on the subject of settling. I’ve heard this raised time and again whenever people would talk to me about relationships, staying with a current partner, or entering into a new relationship.

Involved or Committed?

Sometimes, we do have to ask ourselves which one are we. Are we the type who gets involved or one who commits? Every couple should take a step back and check which one you fall under. This will save you a whole lot of trouble later on.

Window of Honesty

In the two decades that I’ve been seriously in the dating scene, I’ve never really considered that such a theory — or is it a fact? — exists in relationships. It’s probably due to how I view relationships, how I perceive life.

Second Marriages and a Bag Full of Turmoil

It’s no secret that I’ve been going through some very trying times recently with the horrible flooding in Indiana, my puppy having Parvo and so much more that no one in their right mind would believe - so allow me to blame my fragile emotional state on the issues at hand while I offer […]
