Have you ever tried to fix your friend’s relationship problems by giving your opinion and advice, sure she would follow it, only to watch her repeat the same pattern? I have. And the cold hard lesson is this: you cannot save every woman you know or love. At the end of the day, she is going to do what she wants until she finally gets …
If a man’s dating profile says he is “open to short,” “open to long term,” “casual,” and “friendship” all at once, read it again. That is not a man keeping his options open. That is a man telling you, in writing, that you are an option. And you keep falling for it. He is not undecided. He is unbothered. He has no intention of choosing, …
Every June, the same script runs. Cards for dad. Posts about the man who taught you to ride a bike. Brunches and ties and “world’s best father” mugs.
