Technology has completely changed the way that a lot of us do life, especially in the world of dating. We can literally manage our love lives with the click of a mouse and/or thumbs via online dating. Online dating seems like a no-brainer or that it would be fairly simple, but it can be a little complex. So we’ve come up with a list [yes! the dreaded list] of some tips, tricks, advice, and etc. that we’ve learned along the way. Of course we won’t cover everything and will probably have to create several blog posts on this subject, so just humor us for now. lol HAVE AN OPEN MIND…

Speed Date
So I met this guy online and we began to speak on the phone off and on for a couple of weeks. I had been out of town for work, so there wasn’t an immediate opportunity for us to connect face to face. Well, I was home this particular week and the guy called to ask what I was doing that evening. I let him know that I had a meeting when I got off and would be headed home afterwards. He said he wanted to see me and would be wrapping up with his client [he was a personal trainer] at around 7:30pm, which happened to be around the…

The Set Up
So this guy that I knew from an online dating site hit me up a year later out of the blue. We dated for a bit previously, but I didn’t think he was a good fit because he had a Napoleon complex: he was mean to me at times and didn’t know how to talk to me. I stopped communicating with him at that time and told him that I didn’t think we were compatible. As I said before, he messaged me one year later on a social media site asking to reconnect. I told him it wasn’t a good idea and declined, but he just kept asking. He asked me out…

1 Bar, 2 Fools
So I was at the bar with a group of friends when I felt someone squeezing on my side. It caught me totally off guard because I was in the middle of a conversation with one of my homegirls and knew it wasn’t her grabbing me on my love handles. I turned my chair around to see who touched me and it was some guy who was sitting in the stool right next to me at the bar. Me: Ummmmm…why are you touching me? Can I help you with something? Him: Oh, I just wanted to get your attention to talk to you. Me: My attention? Are you kidding me right now? You’re…
