Something happened between us. It could be one of many things. A switch flipped internally in you that won’t let us go the next friend level. Or you did something the last time I was around you that was friend turn off. Let’s talk out both scenarios. Am I too talkative? Too loud? Some people toldContinue reading “Why Can’t We Be Friends?”

Remember When. . .
There are those we care never to let go of. The people we want to stay in our lives forever because at one time they brought us such joy, calmed us down when we were upset — maybe on the verge of crying — or sat around doing nothing with us when no one elseContinue reading “Remember When. . .”
Date Someone Who Cares About You
Sometimes your special prince or princess doesn’t come dressed in royal clothes with a crown on. In this college dating world I occasionally feel like an outsider with what I want and hope to have with a guy. At the end of the day though I know we all have different dating agendas. When I read this below postContinue reading “Date Someone Who Cares About You”
The Summer of Me
I didn’t know what I would discover about myself this school year. I knew it would be different but I didn’t know I would start thinking of myself as cute. I never really thought of myself as truly cute. Every once in a while someone would give me a compliment, but I wouldn’t put much trustContinue reading “The Summer of Me”
He Has a Crush on You
As time unravels for me to know you more, I come to like what I see on the outside and especially on the inside even more. The validity of this crush is unsubstantiated. Your sexuality is still unproven but I’m sure it works in my favor. Tell me. Just me. That’s all I need. WhileContinue reading “He Has a Crush on You”
Whirlwind
I rush out the door. I need to get out of here. It’s been too much public relations lately. Class. Work. Helping friends. FPRA. There is still a few hours until sunset, but it’s slightly dark outside. I feel the wind encompassing me. I should go home soon. I need to go home soon. NotContinue reading “Whirlwind”
Goodbye Teens!
Let’s get ready to kiss those enlightening teenage years where I made naive mistakes goodbye but embrace them in my arms for all the great experiences. We had fun didn’t we! There were some fun nights but also tears. Maybe too many. . . There was love, and there were fights. We gained friends and lost aContinue reading “Goodbye Teens!”
Let’s Show Some Skin
In middle school I realized how unhealthy ketchup and syrup is. I began eating a little healthier. I lost weight. In high school I learned horizontal stripes are not flattering. I became aware of how these things affect physical perception. Freshman year I voiced to others, to strangers, “I’m Jarryd and I’m gay.” Today IContinue reading “Let’s Show Some Skin”
Why You Shouldn’t Text That Jerk Who Hasn’t Called You Back
It happened! You met a cutie at a party one weekend and got his/her number. You were confident, but aloof! Showing interest, but also saying I don’t know really need you. Except every part of you screamed, “Let’s hang out or go on a date! Whatever terminology you like to use cause I’m cool likeContinue reading “Why You Shouldn’t Text That Jerk Who Hasn’t Called You Back”
“It’s My New York”
2012 is proving to be a powerful year for me with new experiences and self-examination of everything surrounding me. We all have those people who irk us just by opening their mouths, the moment we question the college dating world, and the time we assess continuing activities from high school. Traveling to Boston in lateContinue reading ““It’s My New York””
