Four years in Tallahassee and three years at the Zimmerman Agency came to a close last week. Another chapter for friendships and new adventures await! Last week was filled with many laughs and lots of tears. I had many ugly cries while hugging friends and standing from a whole department. I feel grateful and blessedContinue reading “Laugh, Cry & Look Ahead”

Flirty Friday: Learn A Secret
“Flirty Friday” – Friday dating and relationship inspiration as you head into the weekend. “I know something about loving people who aren’t smart enough to want to be loved back. I learned a secret that I can tell you. They don’t deserve it.” – Suzanne “Crazy Eyes” Warren, Orange Is The New Black Be boldContinue reading “Flirty Friday: Learn A Secret”
Compromised
As another year passes by I see how conversations about dating with friends don’t only revolve around the intricacies of asking someone out or the friend zone. It also revolves around the delicateness of hooking up and friends with benefits. Asking someone out, the friend zone and friends with benefits all have their own struggles,Continue reading “Compromised”
Tears Start Streaming
I remember my mom dropping me off at college, eager to grasp on to any extra minute with me before this truly new chapter of my life enclosed me. Here on the last school night of my college career tears don’t fall but do come forward. Memories have been ascertained, and I’m stronger for theContinue reading “Tears Start Streaming”

One of her comments reminded me of dating: It’s a lot of, “Hey, do you want to want to grabContinue reading “Flirty Friday: “I Promise It Won’t Be Awkward””
Too Cute for You
Tonight I thought about the last few years of dating and my professional life. At many points along the way we get the feeling of “I can’t” when going for whatever or whomever we want. We keep seeing this great-looking stranger, and we tell ourselves, I can’t approach them. We see a fantastic opportunity andContinue reading “Too Cute for You”
Wake-Up Call Wednesday: Dating & Facebook
Wake-Up Call Wednesday! We never like someone more romantically by friending them on Facebook. We start making assumptions and perceiving them in a different way than organically getting to know them. I embrace holding off from friending them until we’ve reached solid ground. We may never be on solid ground, but at least they aren’tContinue reading “Wake-Up Call Wednesday: Dating & Facebook”
Be. More. Invested.
On the brink of graduation and truly for the last year I’ve noticed a lack of investment in people when it comes to our platonic relationships and potential romances. I’m not naïve or lacking the idea that all types of relationships are two-way. Too often people want you to meet them three-quarters down the road.Continue reading “Be. More. Invested.”
Cheers to A New Story
Cheers. Cheers to the late nights dancing to the beat and offbeat with friends. Cheers to the tears shared with friends over moments we’ve grown from. Cheers to the dates we smile about and the ones we remember with dread. Cheers to the moments we wanted to quit and the successes we didn’t imagine possible.Continue reading “Cheers to A New Story”
