All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.
What Not to Wear on a First Date
A first date can make or break a relationship. (Or should I say a "could be" relationship?) And while you're a fabulous woman just the way you are, the truth is that making a good first impression with a new guy is important. Not just with your attitude and behavior, but also with your appearance.

Swipe Left for WTF, Swipe Right for Nightmare
There you are, at the bar having tequila, wondering why it went so wrong. Why he decided to talk about the size of his penis for the last half hour or why he just answered a call from his “guy friend” who sounded a lot like a female—unless he is currently undergoing a voice change and taking hormones for it.

The Modern Dating Game
To say coming out of a 17 year relationship was a little scary is an understatement. Not least because I felt that nothing which was happening at the time was really within my control (the details of which I’ll leave for another blog).

What I Learned From My Weird Relationship-Non-Relationship
Growing up, I never had a spectacular love life. As much as I watched all of the Disney Channel Original Movies and learned the choreography to High School Musical, it was to no avail. Most of my school years were spent being known as "the other asian girl in our class" or "that girl who is obsessed with band" (and not in the sexy American Pie Presents: Band Camp kind of way.
