Knowing when the stars just aren’t aligning

Realizing that I was looking for more

Learning to be honest about what I want

Growing on my own before going back to dating

I’m glad I gave dating another chance

My mom’s advice stuck with me

It took a love song for me to realize we weren’t in love

I’m more than an online match

Finding the language to say “yes”

A shared sense of humor makes dating fun and can affect how you handle the ups and downs of life together

Embracing a balance between modesty and confidence in my own ambitions

A candid approach to dating that shows respect for the other person

Looking back on our past self and mistakes with gentleness and wisdom

Freeing ourselves and our relationships from the tyranny of our own fears.

Go with your gut.

Trust your gut when it comes to online dating.

How my love of cookies led me to the love of my life.

Uncomfortable as it may be, save time with honest communication.

Sometimes, timing is everything.

Navigating the chaotic new world of modern dating

Hold on to your non-negotiables.

Breaking up (twice) is hard to do.

Sometimes the best dates are among friends
