Before we get into this post, it's important to note that I wrote this way back around the beginning of May. I wrote it because it was therapeutic. I didn't immediately post it because I didn't necessarily want the person who winds up being the subject of this post (even though there are no names … Continue reading I’m Gonna Die Alone
Relationships
Question of the Week #158
You notice a self-destructive behavior pattern in a friend who is clearly unaware of it. Would you point it out? I would probably try to point it out, yeah. Because if it's someone I care about and they're doing something that's unhealthy or unsafe, I'd want to keep them from harm. However, I would only try … Continue reading Question of the Week #158
Neighboring
When you think of your neighbors, what comes to mind? If you're like me, you probably just think of the people who live in your general vicinity who you never speak to and try to avoid eye contact with if you all happen to be outside at the same time. But that may just be … Continue reading Neighboring
Question of the Week #124
Who is the most important person in your life? What could you do to improve the relationship? Will you ever do it? I usually judge the most important person in my life based on how much money they give me. And no one has really given me any money lately, so the position is currently … Continue reading Question of the Week #124
Question of the Week #122
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? Whether I had kids or not, the answer is absolutely no. If I'm married, it means I already met the one person whom I … Continue reading Question of the Week #122
The Single Guy vs. Convenience
There's a gas station/convenience store near where I live. I'm sure it's convenient for a lot of people, but it's super convenient for me because it's on my way to work. Back in my pre-Whole30 days, I would often stop there in the mornings to pick up my version of caffeine, a Coke or Mountain … Continue reading The Single Guy vs. Convenience
Valentine’s Day on Whole 30
It's Valentine's Day again. Honestly, I couldn't care less. I'm not dating anyone to convince me to care. However, my current predicament of being on Whole30 for the month of February (plus two days in March) got me thinking... What if you're dating someone on Whole30? I mean, let's say your sweetheart is doing Whole30 … Continue reading Valentine’s Day on Whole 30
A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Anna
Oh, Anna... Sweet, naive Anna. Throughout the first act of Frozen, you feel pretty bad for her. Well, you feel bad for Elsa, as well, but we covered her last week. As a young child, Anna is very close with her sister, Elsa. She gets injured in an accident involving Elsa's icy powers, which causes … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Anna
How to Know if I Have a Crush on You
I'm single. Have been all my life. Beyond that, I'm an introverted single person. That makes it extremely difficult for me to approach a woman to whom I'm attracted in order to generate a conversation out of thin air. Therefore, all I ever really experience are crushes. You know, like a kid will have on … Continue reading How to Know if I Have a Crush on You
Out of My League
One evening, while I was on a break from work, I heard a song being played over the store's speakers. Honestly, I didn't hear the whole thing and I don't know what it was about. I'd never heard the song before and I had no idea who sang it. But one line talked about a … Continue reading Out of My League
