He didn’t make me wait an hour, not sure where you got that? He was just about ten minutes late. He ubered to the restaurant and rush hour traffic can be unpredictable. I was about ten minutes early cause I always get every where early. He texted me from the uber to say he was running behind. 

I have a weird prescription where one eye is a positive and the other is a negative which means I always have to get high index lenses. Its almost always the same price to get glasses from Zenni (or other similar companies) as it is from Warby Parker - and they have two brick and mortar stores in my city. So I just…

When I started dating again, I went on a few crappy first dates before I met my current boyfriend. One guy, I met for coffee (the date lasted about an hour) then we texted for a week or so every day. I was still feeling him out to see if I wanted to meet up again. Then one day, I mentioned I was really busy running…

Me too!! And thank you :)

That is SUCH a hard lesson to learn but one that we all have to learn (usually in our early 20's i think.) For me, I dated a guy from 23-28 who was SO funny and liked all the same things I did, and was one of those guys who you could talk to for hours because he had charisma like no one else. BUT man was he a fucking…

Im working on this right now. Im trying to cut my mother out after years of her substance abuse and putting her mental health on my shoulders. Its extremely difficult.

I just finished my taxes and Im getting $1 dollar back as a refund. So I guess I did everything correct last year. 

He will. 

I can’t get over how beautiful this switch is. I wish I didn’t already own mine! UGHHHHHH

If he had flaked, I hadn’t paid yet so I would have just had them remove them from my tab (like I said friends with the bartender)- or drank them and still go to the movie. Not a huge deal either way. But I knew he wouldn’t flake. 

So true, we were doing drinks then a movie. So I suggested the bar I like next door to the movie theater.

The boyfriend later would tell me that between that move and that I immediately started talking about star wars and video games, that he knew I was the one. :) 

Becoming friends with the bartenders at all my haunts has proven extremely useful over the years! I definitely recommend it as a hack. When I lost my ID a few months ago, they would still serve me while I waited for my replacement to come in. 

On the first date with my now boyfriend, he was running late due to rush hour traffic. However, since I was friends with the bartender, I was able to have him ring up two drinks for my boyfriend under the happy hour special before it ended. When he showed up, I just had to gesture to the bartender who brought him his…

If you plan on frequent *nonreturning guests like one night stands, then having just things like an unopened toothbrush, face wipes, pads/tampons and the like is a nice thought.

I totally agree. She seems soooo exhausting. Like I live a pretty healthy lifestyle, including working out and eating very healthy but I literally never talk about it and I never talk to other people about it who don’t live the same way I do - unless they seem unhappy and WANT advice. None of my coworkers even knew I…

There are like 8 different companies in my city for these now. Which means there are about 10 at every corner. The amount of times I’ve tripped over these because someone just dumps one on its side at a high pedestrian traffic area is way too high. I’m likely to die because of these when I accidentally fall into…

Im going to be strict about spending money on coffee and alcohol. I got REALLY lax about these two categories in December. The killer is that I would get a drink before a movie at the bar next door or I would get to a place early so I would get a drink while waiting - this added up! And as for coffee, I became friends…

In text I do a lot of the thumbs up emoji - but usually two of them in a row like 👍👍 so the person knows everything is cool and I’m on board. It works great for for if I am busy or driving or whatever. I don’t like texting “okay” or “K.” Occasionally, I will do a “sounds great!” but with family I tend to be a bit…
