#ThatAwkwardMomentWhen: You return to your car only to find out someone has been sleeping in it
I spent about 5 minutes reminiscing about everything that had been and everything that was going to be. The last time I was here I was a naive girl that had just driven cross country for three days with a couple hundred dollars to her name, and an apartment found on craigslist. Since that time, I have not only discovered myself but successfully built a name for myself. I quickly realized this was a pronounced full circle moment.
#Randombling: That Nerdy Chick (are we there yet?)
I'm not even picky, I said to a writer over lunch yesterday. All I want is a guy that is passionate about what he does, loves his life, and is smart.
He stared back at me with this death gaze.
You really believe that, he said. Interesting.
#DatingDetox: It's done, but now what?
It's all so frustrating, and never ending. Google says I'm the "worlds best girlfriend" yet the only relationship I've had for the last 6 years has been in this last month and required watering once a week.
#Question: Why Is She Not Returning My Calls Or Texts?
Just because you have nothing else going on, does not mean that she doesn’t. Women have very active social lives. They are in high demand for events, parties, dates and friends. Look at the typical girl’s Facebook page. She has her own career, possibly school and her own social life that existed before she ever gave you her number. You think that just because you had an innocent flirty exchange and managed to get her number that she’s been thinking about you since? Guys let’s be realistic here. Girls give out their numbers a lot. Sometimes, they do it just to get you to leave them alone.
#ThatAwkwardMomentWhen: You meet a guy on a plane and end up staying out with him until 2 am
I continued, the problem though is the fact that we're the ones that also learned to troubleshoot. These next generation of kids have only had an iphone and working internet. We dealt with dial up, and Juno. It's a new playing field.
#NerdsUnite: Getting Women to Chase You
When you do this successfully you will wonder when you will have time to hang out with the girls you are interested in. You’ll come off as aloof and hard to get. Let’s work on becoming the man we truly want to be and women will be knocking down our door to get to us.
#SMSsummit: Thank you & #messageme!
Thank you so so so much to those that attended my presentation on blog strategy, narrative advertising, and alternative monetization streams at the Social Media Strategies Summit today in Vegas. It sounds cheesy but it really is an honor to get to meet so many of you, and I'd LOVE to connect!!
#DatingDetox: Living the "let go" mentality & appreciating abundance
Remember Antonio? Well, on one of his many adventures in kidnapping me he took me shopping and bought (among clothing since I had literally nothing to wear) a coin necklace. The chain was too short for my taste so I put it on this charm necklace I had from my grandmother. See picture below:
#BrutalHonesty: A step in trust and a story about dealing with your sexuality
The reason that I am writing about my sexuality is because of this story. I'm not gay or transgender but I know what it's like to feel out of place and alone in your sexuality. It has brought me a lot of happiness to see how far we have come in our acceptance of human sexuality but we still have much further to go. This is my small step to help in this movement...
#HowTo: Find out the identity of a fake internet boyfriend/ girlfriend
Having a fake internet boyfriend/ girlfriend is an extremely, extremely shameful experience. We all think we are too smart to have something like that happen to us, but you have to remember, these people are EXPERTS at pulling at the heartstrings.
