I went down a rabbit hole recently and found myself deep in a video about medieval dating advice. Let me tell you, it was part hilarious, part terrifying, and strangely… familiar. You’d think we’ve come a long way in love since the days of jousting and herbal love potions, but honestly? Some [...]

I Saw the Red Flags—But I Wanted It to Work

June 11, 2025

I’ve got to admit something that took me years to say out loud: I saw the red flags. I just didn’t want to believe them. I made excuses, told myself I was overthinking, and tried to be “understanding.” Deep down, I knew something wasn’t right. But when you’re craving connection, it’s [...]

June 11, 2025

used to think moving on was just a matter of time. That one day, you’d wake up and it just wouldn’t hurt anymore. No tears, no triggers, no late-night spirals when a song came on or a photo popped up in your memories. But I’ve come to learn the truth: moving on isn’t passive. It’s not [...]

How to Spot Gold Diggers and Red Flags Without Losing Your Mind

June 11, 2025

There’s a reason I don’t go into first dates wide-eyed and wallet-first anymore. I’ve been burned. I’ve bought the drinks, shouted the dinners, paid for the weekends away—and ended up wondering if any of it actually meant anything. I used to think generosity was attractive. Now I realise [...]

Why Dating Feels So Impossible in 2025

June 11, 2025

I’ve been in the dating scene a long time, but I’ve never seen anything quite like what’s going on in 2025. It’s wild out there. People are more connected than ever, and yet it feels like nobody is truly connecting. I don’t know if it’s the apps, the expectations, or the constant [...]
