One of the reasons I started writing about the whole being single thing was being tired of dealing with all the people who have the audacity to question why I’m still single. It’s not just one question, it’s when the person starts an interrogation. I personally think people who get all judgmental about it are […]

The Single Conundrum
I’m not sure the title really fits what I’m going to try to say here, but it will have to do. When I was “researching” topics for this blog I noticed something that I hadn’t paid attention to before. The “research” included looking for motivational type quotes like the one above on the black […]
