We can never judge another person’s relationship. We’re always on the outside.

I’m not quite sure when it happens, but there’s a certain moment in our teenage lives when our minds become clouded with dating rules.

I burned 65 calories just trying to cancel my gym membership, just from being on the phone with one person, then another, until finally I found myself shouting at a pulsing dial tone.

Five years ago, I packed up everything with my name scribbled on it and stuffed it into the leather backseat of my car.

“I’m so scared to make changes in my life because of all that could go wrong.”

“Pressure is a privilege. So is turning another year older.”

“What have I failed at?” I said, repeating the question to buy some more time. So that I could remember why I was there and who I was with and, I guess, most importantly how the heck to answer a question like that.

In some ways, the way love is portrayed on The Bachelor is much more straight forward and organized then how we approach it in real life.

I’ll admit it.

Why don’t we love as easily and as rapidly as we did when we were little bitty kids?

Let yourself remember.

Let’s talk about it.

I make New Year’s Resolutions all the time.
