Rom-com Syndrome

Saturday night was a lazy night of bumming it at home with some ice cream and a bunch of romantic comedies. This is a very fun activity when in a group of like minded single ladies. But I caution watching these movies alone. It’s akin to an alcoholic at home alone with a bottle of…

Oh! That’s Why I’m Single!!

Last weekend my 3 girlfriends and I went out for drinks at a usual haunt that we enjoy. One friend is married. One friend is practically engaged and one friend is single like me. She also happens to be my beautiful, nerdy roommate. Now, to clarify, we do not go out to these places trolling…

Surely You Jest

Sometimes I wonder if men are capable of making jokes without it being completely inappopriate and highly sexual. Take Mr. “I’m-still-deciding.” So the next day, I guess he decided because he texted me. And here’s what happened. Him – “are we fighting?” Me – “who is this again?” Him – “see… now you should have…

Don’t Even Bother

A couple weeks ago, Grace Kelle and I were out as usual. And we met these 2 guys. The one I ended up talking to was funny and nice and cute so I gave him my number. At the end of the night he (of course) invited me home with him. Promising all kinds of…

Men! Listen up.

So Monday I shared a few steps that women can take to put themselves in the path of a hottie at church. The truth of the matter is that, for the majority of us, that’s all we’ll ever do. Put ourselves in your path. 21st century be darned. Men need to step up. And Christian…

How to…

Catch a church boy. Yesterday I was talking with a few single ladies at the church I attend, Journey Church in midtown Manhattan. And I was explaining my guidelines for catching a man. Now I must add a disclaimer, I have never tried them out myself. But I kinda think the logic behind the list…

Ok, So Where Then?

After my post about the douchey married guy, my grandmother sent me a message expressing concern for me and encouraging me not to go to bars to meet guys. Let me assure you… I do not go to bars expecting to meet Mr. Right. I don’t even expect to meet Mr. Nice. But you never…

The “Married” Guy

[Disclaimer: this is not a story for grandmas, moms, dads, brothers or the faint of heart. Shocking language is involved.] Went out with wingman… wingwoman… wingperson extraordinaire, Grace Kelle the other night. While shopping for a few good men (for me.) We stumbled upon a group of 4 guys. Two of them were brothers and…

Now that’s romantic!

As a modern woman who knows only of romance via TV and movies, the smallest gesture becomes monumental. Because the truth is that we (modern women) are so rarely exposed to gestures of the romantic persuasion. And it would be so simple, men! So simple to impress us. So easy to knock our socks off.…

What is wrong with me?

Sometimes, despite my better nature and good intentions, I can be a real B! For example… I got off the bus from Jersey at Port Authority in NY and this normal, nice guy approached me. He said he’d noticed me on the bus and wondered if I took it into the city regularly. (Which I…
