Breaking out of the cycle
I know I haven’t written in awhile. I have had so many things on my mind to write about, but I was stuck in this cycle. This cycle of dating people who were just there to fill the void. Time-wasters. I kept trying to date the same type of person. The person that wasn’t emotionally… Read more

Waiting for my unicorn
A lot of people ask me why I’m single. Why, despite everything going for me, I can’t land me a husband. Or boyfriend. Or a guy that makes it past one date if I’m being honest. It’s because I’m waiting for my unicorn. My unicorn is basically a male version of myself. I want someone… Read more

Writings from the other side
I’ve been dealing with a few thoughts lately that have been coming at me from the other side. Bear with me. “No offense Jen, but I’d never marry someone who’s divorced.” How I remain unoffended is another story for another time, but what about being divorced makes someone undesirable?

Dating in 2017 – a mental shift
Dating is dead, or so they say. In my opinion, it’s not completely dead, it has just changed into something very different compared to when I started dating many years ago.
