Self-Esteem

This is a blog I wrote when I was 22 years old: This was a hectic year. I was dealing with one guy long distance who called me crazy for actually having feelings and one who was just using me but I was too blind to see it. I'm so glad that I now have that "This is me and fuck you if you dont like it" attitude I was wishing for before. I am so much more at peace now, but it was great to come across this and see the growth: I would say that 2011 has been a bit crazy for me. The most hectic was between April to.... now. Not to go into my whole life story, but trying to deal with school, work, family, and relationships can drive a girl to drink. (& Trust me it did) I took a sociology class this summer that taught me alot about myself. I had one of the best professors I have ever had, a charismatic black woman that graduated from Harvard. She could make you feel like you could walk outside and pick up a car of you felt like it. She taught us to sit back and evalu

Online Dating

Since I've moved to Vegas I have fully embraced online dating. I am fairly new here (been here 10 months) and most of the people I meet out are tourist who are only looking for a quick nut on their wild Vegas vacation. I took to online dating because I thought it would be easier to meet locals. Well, it has been interesting but easy is not the word I would use. I frequent two dating sites Tinder and POF. I need to explain the dynamic of these two sites. POF is a site where you can create a profile, set your preferences and men or women in your area can view your profile and send you a message. This site can be very overwhelming because of the many bums on there who are extremely bored because they have nothing else better to do with their day other than be on POF. So on an average day I get upwards to 40 messages to sift through. In Vegas women being strippers, prostitutes, or cam girls is normal. I will never knock my sex working sisters but I do not know how they deal with the di

Well, it has been a long time since I have written a blog. Six years to be exact. I am now 28, and a lot of things have changed. I've lived in the DMV, Pittsburgh, and I am currently in Las Vegas, but my relationship status is still SINGLE . If I knew 6 years ago when I started this blog that I would still be single asking the SAME questions I would have off-ed myself. At 22 I knew I was young and dumb but I still thought by this age I'd have it figured out. Maybe even married? NOPE. These days I don't even think I want to get married, but we will get into that at a later date. I've been through a lot in these six years. I've broken hearts, had my heart broken, been cheated on, loved on, embraced, disappointed, ghosted, even lost a baby, but I have learned a lot and feel like I have grown into my womanhood. Again, this would never be an advice blog because I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. This is just me sharing some of my experiences and looking for ot
