So I was invited to dinner at a restaurant in the city by a guy that I recently met. Once inside, it seemed a little too ratchet [neither one of us had actually been to this place before] and my date quickly suggested that we walk around the area to find a different restaurant. There were a number of restaurants on the same block, so it didn’t take us long to find a better spot and get seated. We seemed to really be hitting it off when, out of nowhere, he decided to have a confession hour of sorts. He revealed that he hadn’t had sex in over a year and that his divorce was…

Don’t Be A Buzzkill
So have you ever gone on a date with someone that sucked the life out of the entire room? Perhaps he/she was a Debbie Downer, rubbed you the wrong way, or just killed the moment? Well, we call these people BUZZKILLS. Now I’m certain we’ve all had our very own buzzkill moments and here are some suggestions on how NOT to be a buzzkill on future dates.

Bosom Buddies
So a guy that I dated a few years prior resurfaced and we clicked instantly. It was like old times, but 1000 times better. We both picked up a little weight in between time, but that didn’t stop us from rekindling the flame.

One night, he was dropping me off at home after an amazing date and he planted a kiss on me that completely took my breath away. It was magical and at that point, there was no turning back. We…

Job Fair
So I kept hearing about a popular job fair in DC [my aunt was pressuring me about it] and reluctantly decided to attend [I HATE job fairs]. Although I had a great job at the time, I thought it would be a good opportunity to explore other options since I was looking to advance my career. Anyway, I arrived at the job fair and it was absolutely packed with a wide variety of potential employers as well as thousands upon thousands of people. I was dressed to the nines in one of my favorite suits [hey, I believe in looking the part] and, surprisingly, I stuck out like a sore thumb because…
