"You're Fat" Another Dating Misadventure

-

Dating in 2024 is an absolute drag. I have made many connections in the last few months but nothing has really worked out. I have been seeing a guy (Shared Birthday Boy) fairly consistently for the last 3ish weeks, but we are not official. He ghosted me for 24-hours this past weekend, so I took the time to update my dating profiles (FB Dating and Tinder) during the break. My profile is super fun, if I do say so myself. 

Pros and Cons of Dating Me: 

Pros:

  • I always have snacks in my bag.
  • I am a good listener and I will research the hell out of things you're interested in so I can be more engaging. 
  • I have a Costco membership and I'm always down for a Costco run. 
  • -I can talk about a plethora of topics!
Cons:
  • I am allergic to most animals (but I can buy allergy pills in bulk at Costco, haha).
  • I am hyper-independent and over-scheduled so I require at least 2 business days to schedule a date.

With the bio update I also posted a few new pictures of myself. I ended up getting 20 matches by the end of Saturday afternoon. I chatted with a few of the guys and had some pretty good conversations. 

I matched with a guy a few towns over and we were talking about sourdough bread. He told me about the 100-year-old sourdough starter that he recently inherited. We probably spent an hour talking about our love for bread. I thought things were going well, until the exchange below:


The AUDACITY of this man. Shaking my head.

I was flabbergasted, speechless, and super mad when I got his message. Please excuse the salty language in my response, I was tired and a little emotional. I can't stand when people think it's okay to comment on another person's body or weight.

So anyway, if Shared Birthday Boy wants to commit to a relationship with me that would be great. I like him a lot and I'm tired of talking to people on the apps. 😉

SPRING BREAK!!!!

Words cannot express how much love I feel for Spring Break right now. This picture pretty much sums up how I felt when I got out of school last Friday! It has been a crazy busy semester, so this week without having to worry about assignments and projects has been absolutely fantastic! Unfortunately, it's now Thursday and it is almost time to dive back into reality! :( Alright so here are five things that I love at the moment: 1. Sherlock Holmes on BBC!! Even when I am super busy I make time to watch this show! :) It has hilarious dialogue, plus it doesn't hurt that Sherlock is super cute! And the best part of this show is that the next episode for season two is going to air on my birthday!!!! To say that I am excited is a complete understatement! 2. Popcorn! The popcorn my mom buys hardly has any calories, it is delicious, and pretty much my favorite food at the moment! 3. The Clockwork Prince! I bought this book the week after it came out, and I fell in love with it. I

New York Story: NYC's Version of The Little Mermaid

New York City in the summer is Satan's literal anus. It smells bad and it's hot as hell. In an effort to help people in the city cool down, the fire department opens up the fire hydrants. Many people use the open water as a splash pad or a car wash. I preferred to close the curtains and lay in front of a fan for hours at a time. But to each their own, right? I lived down the street from the 1 Train at 135th and used that train almost exclusively to get to Amelia and Dillon's house. The 1 train was more reliable than the life ruining M11 bus, even though I liked taking the bus to the West Side way more. Anyway, since I practically lived on their couch on the weekend, the trip from Hamilton Heights to the West Side was familiar.  On this particular occasion, I had dinner plans with Amelia and Dillon and I was already running behind. I decided to walk on the right side of the street so I could pick up dessert at the grocery store before getting on the train. For reference, I N

Thanksgiving Day One!!

Okay, so I have never blogged from my phone before, so this will be interesting! Winter I my favorite time of the year. I love the cold weather, the clothes, the Christmas romantic comedies, and especially the general attitude. I love having an attitude of gratitude. And it seems like during the holiday season other people adopt that point of view as well. One of the most rewarding feelings is when you bring a light into someone's life, and the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays gives opportunities to do that. For the next five days I will be posting the things I am thankful for!! 5) Over the summer, I decided that I wanted to do a big project for personal progress. I decided on making baby hats for premature babies. Unfortunately, however, I am not crafty, I don't know how to knit, and I fail miserably at every artsy endeavor I have tried. Despite all the things that could go wrong, I bought hat knitting looms. It took a couple of days for me to finally learn how to do
