    NOT EMBARASSED

    & I probably should be. I was sitting at the bar with my mom & one of the regulars the other day and we were just having a casual conversation about our use of Metamucil. Despite this topic not really being one best suited for a restaurant, it’s also one that most people would be embarrassed by. Yet, we didn’t…

    NOT PUT FIRST

    Unpopular opinion: I don’t want my boyfriend to put me first (Maybe second though). The other day a girl reached out to me over DM and asked for some relationship advice. She told me that her and her boyfriend were taking a break because he needed to focus on school. He felt like he was less of a man because…

    SEARCHING FOR UNICORNS

    I am beyond surprised by the depth of emotion expressed by guys who have recently DM’ed me about a girl. One guy wanted to know if the girl he was talking to seemed interested, so he sent me a screenshot of their conversation (“wtf do these mixed signals even mean?!”). Another asked me how he should resolve an argument with…

    TEASE

    I have a very open family, so when my mom and I talked for a half an hour about past sexual experiences at dinner yesterday, it wasn’t all that out of the ordinary. Call me old fashioned, but I’m not typically someone who will kiss on a first date, let alone have sex with someone. My mom always raised me…

    EMBRACING ME

    I’ve always hated those people who become carbon copies of their significant other. Who lose their personal identity to become what they think the other person wants them to be. Yet, when I told my boyfriend that he needed to teach me everything about sports, something I don’t have any background in and am not sure I care all that…

    ALIVE

    Wow. Looking back at my year so far, I’ve basically been living my dream life. moving to Hawaii, working in Mexico for three weeks, and now staying with my boyfriend in Portland. Yet, while I spent the last seven months of my life surfing, hiking, riding along mountains in the bed of a truck, petting horses during sunset, floating down…

    TRUST AGAIN

    I’m in Portland, staying with my very recent boyfriend. Still very fresh in the honeymoon phase, I can’t get enough of him. My limbs are drawn to his, tracing my fingers along the veins that run from fingertips to forearm while we speed down the winding highway or our feet doing a dance under the kitchen table while we hang…

    i am. not expecting it

    it’s cuffing season, & i know a lot of people out there are looking for a boo to snuggle up with to watch christmas movies & drink hot chocolate. well, for those people in need, i may have some bad news; it’s typically easier to find a bf/gf that sticks if you’re not looking. sure, i’ve been in and out…

    i am. inexperienced

    so, we haven’t talked about sex in a while. probably because it has not been on my radar. (& by sex, i mean i’ve had none of that 🍆🍑🍌🍩🥜 shiz). in a generation where “we met on tinder” will be a common phrase and sex on the first date seems expected, the whole dating thing can be a little intimidating.…
