There seems to be a common trend when it comes to me and my luck with dating. I will go on about two to three dates with a guy and then he suggests that I come over to watch Netflix on our next date. I kindly say that It is too soon for me and I would rather do something else that doesn’t involve me being at his house. At this point they either don’t respond to my text and go completely MIA or they just make up some lame ass excuse and cancel our date all together. Well, this weekend seemed to pan out this way because JTT conveniently cancelled our date on Saturday morning saying that he was too hung over to hang out that night. He didn’t make plans to reschedule and simply went MIA which doesn’t surprise me. If you want to see if a guy actually likes you don’t go over to his house right away and if he still wants to hang out with you then he’s a keeper. I seem to be getting the worst luck with Tinder and have since deleted my account because it feels like a complete waste of time. I have been thinking about renting out a furnished place for a couple of weeks in Seattle over the summer. My mom really wants to come with me and take blog photos throughout city. I think I just need a change of scenery for a while and a break from dating awful Tinder guys.

June 1, 2015 at 5:17 amUgh, I have heard enough tinder horror stories to make me really grateful I found my other half B.T (before Tinder!). That said, I have a friend who found her current boyfriend on tinder and they’re going strong… I call those guys #tindertreasures haha. I can imagine a lot of guys viewing Tinder as a lazy hookup option, some of them are gross like that… A change of scenery sounds so perfect to do, it’ll give you a bit of time to find some clarity xo

June 1, 2015 at 7:59 amFirst of all, you look amazing! So sorry to hear about your awful luck with guys lately. I’m kind of in the same boat as you being from a small town where everyone knows everyone and the selection pool isn’t that great.. I’ve never done Tinder (I’ve heard way too many horror stories), but have tried some other apps just for kicks and have come across some weirdos. One guy seemed perfect…we chatted for about a week, had a lot in common, he was nice looking and had a great personality, etc., until we met in person. I almost didn’t recognize him b/c he Photoshopped his pics (he admitted this) and he kept going on and on about how he wanted to get married so his wife could help him pay for his tuition and do chores around the house b/c it was way too hard for him to do all by himself (we are talking basic gen ed classes)! My jaw hit the floor and he was being dead serious- why in the world would you say something like that on a first date and keep whining about it. Lol. Anyway, hang in there, I feel your pain! Everyone says the right one will come along at the right time…. You deserve better than that immature guy!!

June 1, 2015 at 10:34 pmThanks so much Brittany, Don’t do Tinder! It is awful! That has happened to me too where I talked to a guy for two weeks and when we met it was awful! That whole photoshop thing sounds terrible! I am so sorry to hear that. My fingers are crossed for you too!

Elva Roberts
June 1, 2015 at 5:28 pmI think feminism has made it much for difficult for women in that men think that women are just dying to be intimate. For many guys, once a woman does so, it’s the mia . My daughter tells me that bars are called ‘meat bars’ where guys go to get their latest ‘kill.’ -whatever, you know what I mean. How demeaning this is to women. We are superior to men and should not settle for this treatment.

And like someone says here beneath: don't be in a rush. I'm sure you will find someone who likes you! I just quit dating for a while, because of kind of the same reasons. Dating and guys are just mostly a waste of time (except you find the right one of course!) Anyways is really like the outfit!
