What's so cool about the word transparency? It combines the words trans and parenting all in one. Both of which are cool qualities in my eyes. Anyway, I will admit that today I had a hard day. Today, I also drank a bit of the Japanese Whisky on my counter but that just adds to my credibility (maybe?).


Anyway today was tough for me. I actually felt really bogged down by life and all the processes we repeat on a daily basis trying to find gratification. There are so many times where I definitely find myself saying “What am I doing with my life? Why am I here? What is the point of all of this?” Though I also find myself asking all of these questions much more when I don’t feel like I have a solid support system or when I feel really alone. I try my best not to fill these voids with aimless or stupid interactions but i’m human so it happens.


The real meat and potatoes of this is that if someone makes you feel a certain way tell them. If you care about someone, it’s ok to be vulnerable because you’re human. No one expects a surface level “oh i’ve been doing so well” if you are really connected with someone whether it be friendship or romantic.


If someone makes you feel like shit, tell them why. The worst that can happen is they respond like the POS they are and you have filtered someone effectively out of your life that served no purpose. Though, if you present your feelings and someone acknowledges them, you know that person is versatile enough to adapt to you and is worth your time.


Give what you take and be willing to give that much more if you see someone you care about struggling. Though, if people prove to you how worthless they are, don’t let them excuse their way out of it, Leave them. No one has time for that.

The moment you realize that people might not have the capacity to acknowledge your feelings (especially when they are people who are supposedly close to you) will always hurt. I think it is definitely one of those revelations that will set you free. It’s insanely tiring fighting for something you believe in immensely when the receiving end doesn’t have the capacity to understand the concept regardless of how you deliver your message (i don’t mean by pigeon…)


I would say that in these instances, it’s just important to cover all your bases and ensure that the message you are conveying is really as clear as it could be. If after this, the receiving party still does not understand, don’t bother wasting any extra energy conveying a message which will never get through.


Remember to surround yourself with others that make you feel loved, smart, and admired and will also call you out on your bs with the best intentions in mind. Most importantly, believe in yourself, love yourself, and know that even when you have dumb moments, you are still smart AF. You are the only person you can trust to make you feel a certain way.

I just found this picture I took quite funny. Hope you guys get a laugh out of it also :D

Happy Saturday All :) I figure I would share some thoughts about online dating as i've done a crap ton of it so I can definitely say i'm at expert level. I would say that dating for me is tough, I mean frequency and amount of dates isn't quite an issue but the type of person I attract or am attracted to never turn out to be who I want them to be or vice versa. It's a weird dynamic.


I hate to say this but it always seems like everyone is perfect aside from one thing. I'm sure the same could also be said about me as well. I think this is why i'm so selective in my interactions, as in if i feel anything which even signifies to me you are just going on a date with me just to go on a date with me I try to peace out ASAP. I might be sabotaging myself because not everyone is as forward with their emotions as I am, but it's definitely also a defense mechanism. I'm not going to wait around to see if someone likes me, if they don't seem too, statistics are they don't.


I also find that there is also this phenomenon of always thinking you can do better. My thought process goes like this "he's sweet to me, he's kind, he likes me, i like him, but i'm also talking to this other guy." There is so much crap in this thought process. I feel like the stubborn powerful woman side of me is always thinking i'll find better, in essence I'm looking for some magical unicorn. I need to realize that I am not a magical unicorn, so finding a magical unicorn is going to be a tough endeavor. Anyway, good luck swiping, if it hasn't worked for you, their are alot of fish in the sea but if you find one that you enjoy, stop swiping (now to follow my own wisdom).
