When your last baby flies away, what’s next for you? — The years between the first time you see your precious little one after birth and the day they leave home are both endless and short.

Drag Queens: Not the Same as Pedophiles

I’ve been around both, and trust me, they are not the same — My favorite uncle was gay. I’ve grown up with gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer family and friends. I’ve known drag queens and thoroughly enjoyed their shows. For me, these things are as natural as anything else in the world. My best friend lived next door when I was around 10…

The Ultimate Misadventure in Online Dating: Too Big to Fail?

He certainly had something big, but it wasn’t exactly what he claimed — I’ve written before about some of my misadventures in online dating. Usually, I group a bunch of men together in one story, with just a short tale of what they did that was so memorable in such a bad way. However, this guy earned a post all for himself. Based…

My Grandson (and Every Baby) is a Miracle

It’s overwhelming to think of what it takes to get us here — My grandson was born the morning of January 11, 2023. My daughter-in-law gave me a beautiful granddaughter from her previous marriage, age five, but the birth of my grandson has hit me in a very different way. I remember looking into his father’s, my son’s, eyes the day he was…

So you can identify harassment from a man who should not hit on you unless you show signs of interest, but cannot see that you are harassing me by continuing to respond to me after I have said I no longer wish to hear your opinion? Oh, the irony! Seriously…

Should a Relationship Ever Be a Goal?

We’re told to set goals, but maybe some things aren’t meant to be goals — Over the years, I’ve had goals around relationships. At one point, the goal was marriage and kids. At another point, it was to find lasting love — with or without marriage. There was even a time, very briefly, when the goal was just to find someone I was sexually compatible…

Why We Should Be Nice to Men Who Hit On Us: An Important Perspective

As a mom of sons, I worry sometimes we’re too aggressive — Like so many women, I have experienced the frustration and fear because a man won’t take no for an answer. I have snuggled my keys between my fingers as I walk through a dark parking lot late at night, checked my back seat, and practically jumped into my car so…

Dating on a Budget: How to Have Fun without Spending a Fortune

You don’t need to give up on dating to save some cash — Aside from a short-lived, casual relationship this summer, I’ve been single since I ended my last serious relationship almost four years ago. During those four years, I’ve gone back and forth between actively dating and enjoying being single. And most recently, like so many, I’ve had to take some hard…

My Age is Not My Age

I’ve noticed an unusual pattern that I don’t understand — I use a few different dating apps. Though there is definitely some crossover where I see some of the same faces on all of them, there are also some unique profiles on each. Truth be told, I’m not super interested in dating these days. I mostly scroll the apps when…
