Dates with Exboyfriends, Tinder, and Other Shenanigans

The past few weeks have been interesting to say the least. With the news of my sequel getting published being the craziest (and most exciting) thing in the mix, my dating life is definitely a close second. Third, I have my sisters engagement party.

Obviously, my sister is getting married. And I am the Maid of Honor. I am so excited about this and absolutely overjoyed for the exciting things coming our way. But, it DEFINITELY makes me realize just how single I am. And, being that my sisters soon to be husband is quite an amazing guy, it definitely makes me realize what I do and don't deserve.

It turns out most of the guys on Tinder are NOT what I don't deserve. How do I know this? Because I've been on A BILLION Tinder dates. I've met up with winners to say the least. One of the guys was in a relationship THE WHOLE TIME we talked (like 3 weeks), several of the guys didn't pay for the whole bill at dinner and the rest of them were just looking to get laid.

That being said, there were some nice guys. It just didn't work out.

When things seem to not work out for a while, I find myself reverting back to old habits (AKA boyfriends). I can't help it. I start to remember why I was with them and how much I miss the good times.

Of course, I never remember the reasons why we broke up. Most of the time, I go into the situation thinking that it'll go well and leave really upset. But sometimes (RARELY) it surprisingly goes well. I leave feeling exciting, missing them, and all of my old feelings seem to creep back. Being that I am Ms. Sensitivity, sometimes when things go well with an ex it screws with me more than if it went badly. Why? Because then I care. And I'm desperately trying to keep my guard up unless I know that I'm going to be caught.

As of right now, I'm not sure what's going to happen with the guys in my life. But, sometimes the chase and the unknown is a little fun. Because maybe, just maybe, things will turn around and the guys from tinder, an ex, or maybe even someone I meet at a party will be the guy that makes me as happy as my sister's fiance makes my sister.
