Also good is mashed rutabagas and carrots.

I mean this in the most helpful way possible, but your writing voice kind of gets on my nerves. It's like I'm having a conversation with a douchebag blogger who is screaming insults in my face. I feel like so many bloggers write in this trendy "goddamn" voice now, and it's so generic and annoying to me. It's like the…
She was incredibly flat the entire time. Oh Selena.
Official Motto: "Hobby Lobby - If discrimination and hate are your hobby, enjoy our lobby."
This is exactly the right attitude. I can't believe what an alien idea it is to some people that being alone is being better than being in a shitty relationship. I have friends who will put themselves through hell being with a loser just so they're not alone. I felt sorry for them when I was in a good relationship,…
My mom and I were just talking about this! I met a guy on OKBlowjob—er, OKCupid, and after hours of messaging on that platform, I gave him my number. He then texted me non-stop, asking me questions that one usually asks on a date, so needless to say, when I met him for our actual date, there was not a lot of talking,…
I sympathize....too many guys have pulled the disappearing act once the relationship seemed to be heading towards emotional intimacy. I am battling against low expectations at this point. It is hard to be open and excited about a relationship knowing that he might disappear at any moment and with no warning. Last…
This a million times. Recently encountered a slow-fader who I had a feeling wasn't so into me, but any time I tried to say I guess this isn't working he gave me a long list of excuses about being tired, being busy, not being good at texting but let's do something soon. I didn't care about him that much initially, but…
I'm really, really, really glad I did not marry in my 20s. The Right Guy For Me™ when I was 25 was a completely different person from TRGFM™ when I was 35. I'm pushing 45 and TRGFM™ is a completely different person from 9 years ago.
I find that people who do the slow fade are afraid of confrontation. And especially with guys. It's that whole line of thinking where "wimminz be crazy and the minute they like you they want you to marry and impregnate them". So they think that if they tell a girl they're not into them that the girl is gonna freak the…
On the other hand, I have had men dramatically and preemptively break up with me after one or two boring dates. For example, I met a guy on okcupid, had a nice hour's conversation over a drink. He was friendly and funny, even if I wasn't immediately attracted to him. I thought I should give it a chance. He asked me…
Only thing worse than the slow fade is the Slow but Never Actually Fully Fade. AKA the Long Term String Along. This is basically the perfect storm of attachment issues.... neither party has the balls to cut the other loose, months go by with a few texts here and there yielding (false) hopes. Nothing ever changes. The…
I've pulled the slow fade before, but it's generally when I perceive there to be very little on the line (we haven't really hung out more than once, didn't have sex, no rational reason for big or even medium feelings to be involved). It also has to do with the fact that I hate texting, so I, um, sort of only text…
Yes, I think its ok to slow fade too. But making tentative plans or acting like you might still be interested when you are not is the ultimate dick move. Most likely when people aare doing that they have someone else on the line that they are more interested in and you are their back up. Which SUCKS.
Oh gosh, the slow fade. I hate it, I hate it, I hate it. I hate dating in general, but the slow fade is a special hell. I'm one of those people who would genuinely would prefer a 'sorry, just not that into you' flat out. I can hack it. The 'is this happening/is it not happening' tenderhooks is something I have no…
Yeah, questioning whether you're "balanced"? Fuck him. Sorry, but that sounds like gaslighting, and if he's unwilling to budge this early on in your relationship, it doesn't bode well. It sounds like he's just not willing to see that maybe his busy schedule is the issue. People have different levels of needs, and…
The fact that the Countess managed to leverage her privilege into a duet with Natalie Cole is downright offensive.
Okay, yeah, I usually did that too, just because I didn't see any point taking a sugar pill - I know it's supposed to make it routine so you don't forget, but the pack is labelled with the days of the week, so you know when you start back up anyway.
I've never taken the placebo pills (didn't realize they were ever more than just PLACEBO) and I've never had a problem. I've also got it timed so that when I stop the pill on Tuesday I just start spotting in time for the weekend and can spend the whole thing at home if I wanna. Hooray, birth control!
