“I’m still in love with you,” I said to the girl I hadn’t seen in four years. I’m pretty sure this caught her off guard. At least, that’s what the expression on her face told me. It probably doesn’t help that I threw that statement out there about seven minutes into our first conversation since … Continue reading Reunited

Question of the Week #232

I’ll Be There For You
I'm certain we've established that I, from time to time, have some pretty freakin' bizarre dreams. Exhibit A. At times, they can be kind of disturbing. Exhibit B.

Dedicated
I should preface this by saying that I really don't listen to the radio that much.

Crushing It
Kids, the other day, I gave a friend of mine a ride from the garage. Do you know how she repaid me? By asking me an incredibly personal question. She asked, "Who do you have a crush on right now?" I mean, she is one of my best friends in the world, so she really … Continue reading Crushing It
The Single Guy and the Ribbon Cutting
When was the last time I did a post like this? It's been a long time. And, I think, most of that is because I haven't really given much thought to my status as a Single Guy lately. I mean, of course I'm still single. I just haven't been dating and haven't had much of … Continue reading The Single Guy and the Ribbon Cutting

If you were happily married, and then met someone you felt was certain to always bring you deeply passionate, intoxicating love, would you leave your spouse? What if you had kids?
