Hi it's me Joan. I wanted to share my story about this guy i met online. But before that, let me tell you something about myself.
I'm 27 years old, living alone with cats actually. You can say I'm very independent. I am that type of a person who doesn't listen to what other says, in short... stubborn! which I think is a no-no for other people, I care less anyway. What else? I got this awesome wa...
She was late and I was early. I haven’t been out much since the nightmares and I had never been on a blind date, so I didn’t know what the fashionable etiquette was. I had gotten her a grocery store rose, arrived ten minutes early and I had waxed myself pit to pinky toe just in case it went that direction.
I was already walking to the little cafe she’d chosen in a khaki button up dress before I ...
I put on my soft pink blush on my cheeks then grab my bag and head out the door, today is my first date and i’m so excited! While I get in my mom’s car I start brushing my long golden blonde hair. “Wish you luck Kaliya” mom said waving to me as I step into the restaurant.

This restaurant is like none i’ve been to, it’s pretty empty and quiet, but I shake that off, I want this to be the perfec...
I let out a shaky laugh, “I don’t know you.”
His hands slip from my cheeks and into waves of blond hair, “Are you sure?”
“Yes, I-.” My breath catches as he pulls me in for a kiss.
As our lips touch my hands grab his, and put them by his side. I step back from his embrace, as the memory hit me like a tidal wave.

“Daniel?” I asked, my lips touching his ear.
“Mhm?”
“What are we waiting for?...
I smoothed out my poofy, purple dress and took a step forward. The ballroom was full of pastel dresses and suits wandering around the room. My name would be announced as soon as the DJ saw me. Obviously, this party was for me.
Despite the excitement of the event, nerves fluttered through my veins. I couldn’t mess this up. I had to be perfect. People I couldn’t name waved at me, sipping from fanc...
“Simply,” she said smoothly, “I’m not your date. Well, not this time.”
“You’re not—you’re not what?”
My leg jittered under the table, my foot tapping quietly on the stone floor. Silence clogged the empty pub like smoke. It stifled the room, made it stuffy, hard to breathe, to think.
Usually, I’d revel in the quiet, welcome it, but this was maddening.
It was dead silent.
Even the beat of my ...
He walked in
His head up while he was raising his chin
He looked like an old friend
But we hadn't seen each other since we met our end
It looked like fate
That we were going on a date
Something about him was different
Like he was less Considerate
Something about him had changed
Something oddly strange
It was like a light flickered
All things considered
When he took me out to walk in the rain...
Sitting in a dim lit bar, John prattled on about the breakup with his latest girlfriend. They had only been together a little over five weeks, a personal record for him, but he wasn’t taking the split very well. To her credit, at least his ex-girlfriend ended the relationship in person. The previous two broke up with him over the phone, one via voice mail. On some level, it was progress.
“I d...
This was not too long ago before I gave Danny a chance So we were sitting in the dinning room of a really big time restaurant that he picked and Things were going pretty good he and I like similar things and felt like he was a generally decent person at least as we were laughing at some joke he had about school I had something dawned on me but kept quiet for a little while he somehow had a big tel...
Those eyes, they’re so familiar. I’m sure I’ve seen her somewhere before.
The way she glides her hair past her ear, and the way her nose flares when her smile shows.
I swear I’ve seen this girl before. But I can’t put my finger on it.
“Have we met?” She’s looking at me, a little nervous. Blushing with embarrassment, avoiding eye contact.
“Actually yeah we have now you mention it” she starts t...
