It was really great getting to know you. Thanks for taking me out for dinner, for paying, for the fluid conversations we seemed to have. Thanks for asking me questions about myself and for seeming interested in me. Thanks for making that effort and making me believe that maybe there was something there between us.…
Growing up as an only child, I spent the bulk of my life proving to people how good I was at sharing. I became a master of compromise and, hating confrontation, flourished at making sure everyone always ended up in a win-win situation. I hated the stigmas associated with not having siblings: spoiled, not good…
Relationships are funny things. They begin with so much hope and exhilaration, full of life and laughter, buckets of butterflies, and attempted patience while you both wonder if the other likes you back just as much. Once you get past the beginning stages and establish that you’re on the same page, the fun continues for…
