  Embracing Singlehood: Why I Choose Happiness, Independence, and Self-Respect Recently, I found myself in a rather interesting conversation with a few individuals who seemed to question my life choices. They asked if I'd ever done something embarrassing, insinuating that perhaps I hadn't lived enough to understand certain experiences. Well, let me set the record straight: yes, I've had my fair share of embarrassing moments, but never anything as reckless or repulsive as some of the scenarios they brought up. Let's address the elephant in the room. No, I've never gone to bed with a stranger on the first date, nor have I ever stooped so low as to pick up human feces. Call me old-fashioned, but I believe in exercising better judgment than that. It's called common sense, folks, and it's a valuable tool for avoiding situations that would make you the subject of ridicule or scorn. You might wonder why I'm so passionate about this topic. Well, let me tell you.

Sex! Sex and marriage, viewed through an evolutionary lens, unveil fascinating insights into human behavior and societal shifts. Traditionally, men were driven by an instinctual urge to spread their genetic legacy far and wide, echoing behaviors seen in our animal counterparts. However, some men held steadfast to 'old-fashioned' values, seeking lasting love and commitment with a single partner. In contrast, women historically sought strong, healthy partners capable of providing security and resources for their offspring. The concept of pairing with one mate for life, akin to ancient hunter-gatherer societies, mirrored the modern institution of marriage. The sexual revolution of the 1960s and 1970s reshaped societal norms, challenging traditional views on relationships and marriage. Both men and women experienced shifts in attitudes, with a decline in the emphasis on commitment before sex and a delay in the age of marriage. Today, notions of commitment and love are evolving, in

Staying Safe in the Dating World: Essential Tips for a Secure Experience In today's digital age, navigating the world of dating can be both exhilarating and daunting. While meeting new people and forming connections is part of the adventure, it's crucial to prioritize safety and security at every step. With that in mind, here are two essential tips to keep in mind for a safer dating experience: Protect Your Privacy: When it comes to sharing personal information, discretion is key. Never disclose your home address to someone you're meeting for the first time. This includes avoiding inviting them to your home or divulging details about where you live. Instead, opt for public meeting places such as restaurants, cafes, or theaters. Not only does this protect your privacy, but it also provides a neutral and safe environment for getting to know each other. Travel Separately : It may seem convenient to share a ride with your date it's essential to prioritize your safety. Avo

Embracing Independence: Why I've Decided to Stop Dating In a world where dating apps and blind dates dominate the scene, I've made a bold decision: I've stopped dating altogether. And let me tell you, it's been the most liberating choice I've ever made. Gone are the days of stressing over what to wear, where to meet, and whether or not there will be a spark. Instead, I've embraced my independence and reclaimed control over my life. One of the key reasons behind my decision? Safety. Call me cautious, but I refuse to let anyone into my personal space. That means no inviting dates to my home or sharing my address. I've always been a "meet you there" kind of person, and I intend to keep it that way. Maintaining boundaries is crucial in today's world, especially when it comes to dating. By keeping my home and workplace off-limits to romantic interests, I ensure that my safety and security remain uncompromised. Let's talk about transportation. S

Cultivating the Garden of Love: A Reflection In the garden of the heart, love is the tender seedling that yearns for nurturing care to blossom into its full splendor. Much like a delicate flower, love requires constant attention and tending to thrive amidst life's ever-changing seasons. It's a notion that resonates deeply with me: the belief that true love, the kind that transcends fleeting infatuation and surface-level affection, possesses a resilience that withstands the test of time. For true love is not merely a passing fancy or a fleeting attraction—it is an enduring bond that weathers the storms of life and emerges stronger for it. In our fast-paced world, it's all too easy to mistake the spark of lust or the allure of fondness for the enduring flame of genuine love. Yet, true love is not defined by fleeting passions or fleeting pleasures; it is rooted in a deep and abiding connection that transcends the superficialities of attraction. Like any living thing, love requ

A Leopard Can't Change His Stripes! If someone disrespect you once they'll do it again. The only way you can stop this is if you remove them from your life. Trust me on this. It's a hard learned less for me. See I don't like “giving up” or “throng in the towel” on a person or on anything actually. The last man I dated, that I loved, never loved or respected me though he faked it for five years. He had showed me he didn't in small ways over the few years leading up to him asking me to be his girlfriend. I'm sure I just discounted the signs because I loved him and because he's a dude and we were just friends at the time. While we were together he showed his disdain, lack of love, and disrespect in increasingly obvious ways that even his acquaintances, friends, and family who barely knew me or only knew of me called him out on. A man who respects you won't cheat on you. A man who respects you won't' lie to you. A man who respects you won&
