The Path Between Us

path between us
The Path Between Us, was inspired by a book I read this morning about a soldier coming home permanently and his wife attempting to come to terms with the things he’s seen and done. All the while trying to reach him through it all. Told from her perspective.

There’s this massive path between us that prevents me from getting close enough to you,

It’s almost as if the road block will never be lifted or the obstacle won’t ever move. Continue Reading

8 Apps I Can’t Live Without

apps

Let’s face it. We all hold our phones to a certain level of love and attention that some researchers may call “unhealthy”.

Is it though? I mean yes obviously. But speaking generally first. I’d like to think that our phones hold the answers to so much that to not hold it so near and dear to ourselves would be suicide on all fronts. I’m talking not knowing where to be, who you’re supposed to be there with, professional and social commitments, personal appointments, the ability to quick pay… I mean must I continue?

WHY I DON’T BELIEVE IN RELATIONSHIP GOALS ANYMORE

relationship goals

If you asked me a month ago about what couples were relationship goals, whew. I’d have listed off too many. Though these days I’m singing a totally different tune when it comes to relationships. They’re just never what they seem to be y’all. I think I’ve always known that, but I became more sure of that recently. There are so many things left to the imagination. I’m talking things you will never know about someone else’s life with another person. Things you aren’t meant to know to be honest. So to pit your own relationship or the one you hope to have on the basis of another is honestly a bit wild and mostly unrealistic.

How can you desire a relationship that you have no idea the ins and outs of..? How can someone else’s relationship be your relationship goals? Continue Reading

TEXT MESSAGES MEN ABSOLUTELY HATE RECEIVING

text messages

Have you ever felt like text messages and texting someone you’re interested in is a lot like playing chess with Bobby Fisher (American chess grandmaster)? The funny thing about texting is that men always get the bad rep. They’re always considered the horrible texters. I can’t tell you how many times my girlfriends and I have roasted a guy for his lack of texting abilities. Like seriously, why would he even text that? Us ladies are so damn quick to shit talk guys when it comes to texting, but what about us? Couldn’t the same be said about us women? The answer is yes, it absolutely could. So keep reading as I explore the opinions I received from a multitude of guys I polled as I share text messages men absolutely hate receiving.

WHY WOMEN VALUE INTIMACY SO MUCH

intimacy

Intimacy means so many different things to so many different people. However to women, I find that we all view it the exact same way. It’s something that we believe should be cherished and kept close, only reserved for the people we love. The people that we find deserving of the intimacy we as women possess. It stands to reason then, why it can be so irritating when the significant others in our lives don’t value or understand something we hold so close. In light of that, keep reading as I explore a few things: Why women value intimacy so much (for my male readers), What intimacy means to us females (for my babes), and how knowledge of both can create magic in your current or next relationship.  Continue Reading
