February 2017. Big Country and I were getting along swimmingly. We spent many evenings cooking dinner together, watching hockey and sitting around his outdoor fire pit drinking, shooting the shit. He seemed like he was genuinely into me. I was liking him more and more despite the obvious fact that he didn’t want a relationship. […]

Big Country…Part I
September 2016. The buzz was back at work. Me and my work peeps did our typical “how was your summer” conversations. Paul was disappointed that I didn’t have any sexy stories to regal him with. I think he enjoyed living vicariously through me (hehe). He was also eager to set me up with someone, anyone. […]
The Dateless Spring & Summer…

OPP…
May 2015. He reached out to me first on Match. I checked his profile and nothing stood out as super unique or spectacular; but on the surface, things seemed “normal” (although they all appear fucking normal until you start peeling back the layers). About two weeks after emailing back and forth, we decided to meet […]
