The word “like” is being used more and more, with buttons scattered around the internet, urging us to press them. But no click of a button can properly imitate the feeling you get when hearing that word from someone. “I like you”. It’s not a loaded phrase, unlike its o-v-e relative, but the feeling on [...]

Let’s Just Be Friends
Sunday, 25 April 2010
I don’t want to be your friend, I just want to be your lover. Radiohead – “House of Cards” While Green may be the new Black,”Let’s just be friends” is most certainly the new “It’s not you, it’s me”. Sometimes, they may be four relieving words exiting your mouth, and other times, four awful words [...]
Soulseek is Not a Dating Site
Sunday, 18 April 2010
Rock and roll. You are envy, I am, so uncool. Still I want to do the best that I can. Let’s meet on the corner and act like we’re old friends. – Josh Rouse “Streetlights” How could I forget this story? It wasn’t until I received a very kind text from him about my last [...]
A League of Her Own
Thursday, 8 April 2010
Walking down the street, how often do you see an absolutely stunning woman, with a boy on her arm who is nowhere near her physical equal? Now think of it the other way around; a drop dead gorgeous man, with a not so pretty girl? I can’t even remember the last time I experienced the [...]
Bathroom Floor Beauty
Tuesday, 6 April 2010
So, you heard about one of my worst first dates. Well, what about one of the best first dates I’ve ever had, only to be shortly followed by the weirdest second date? Alright, here we go. (I’m sorry…) (Have I deterred every boy in Toronto from dating me yet?) We had met the first night [...]
First Date Faux Pas
Sunday, 28 March 2010
A few years ago now, I went on a date with a boy. I had met him at the Social, and he came over to me without saying as much as two words before he asked me out on a date. I figured, sure, why not. He was 30, and the drummer of a band. [...]
Date By Numbers
Friday, 19 March 2010
Everyone has a type. Or at least we say we do. It seems for me that after each relationship, something is either added, or removed, from that list of what constitutes my type. The strange thing is, that while I have a pretty clear picture on the type of guy I feel I would be [...]
Not for the Faint of Heartache
Friday, 26 February 2010
A word of caution, this is my blog. Shocking, I know, but sometimes it’s necessary to state the obvious. I started it as a method of therapy, to lay it all out in the open, so I would be forced to come face to face with it, stare it deep in the eyes. I can’t [...]
The 5 Second Rule of Dating
Tuesday, 16 February 2010
We all know it. You drop something tasty on the floor, and you have to make a mental decision on whether it is still edible, or is it now tainted with germs? How long before it is no longer appealing to you? Is it, perhaps, the absurdly abitrary 5 seconds? For those who are a [...]
Do women need to follow the “Man Code”?
Saturday, 6 February 2010
http://theacidsweatlodge.blogspot.com/2009/11/brotown-slogans.html The Man Code. Bros before Hoes. So many different terms for something that, in my opinion, doesn’t even really need a term. Isn’t it just common sense? However, it is the extension of this code to related parties that gets a little fuzzy for me. We all have those friends of the guy you [...]
