Dating

I've recently entered into the world of dating. I don't do this much so I do not claim to be an expert in this area. However, I've met the most beautiful, intelligent, driven, arrogant, condescending butthole on this journey. The sad part is idk if I like him or dislike him. We'll see how this turns out.

Relationship Strain

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls it has been a long time since I've been in a relationship and in my first week of commitment I have found one thing to be true...cellular phone plans and service can MAKE or BREAK your relationship.

it's frustrating because we're not in the same city and his phone plan sucks. I thought most legitimate cell phone companies nights started at 7 but not his. I'm not that type of person who needs to talk all day. I prefer not to, but a simple text to say "hey, just thinking of you" would be nice. I can't get that because he doesn't have text messages.

Relationships are not easy, both parties have to put effort into making it work. However, conflicting schedules and different cell phone providers is making this more difficult than I expected. So for all my people who are doing the long distance thing AND have different cell phone providers I am in solidarity with you. Stay positive.

Peace & Blessings,

Hell...I can't call it

If you asked me six years ago how would my life be in six years I would have told you I'd graduate in four years with a degree in electrical engineering making big money. Needless to say, life didn't pan out the way I expected it to. I graduated in five years with a degree in Professional History. I work almost 40 hours a week at a non-profit and make little to no money, but it's all good. I've found what I wanted to do, I have a passion for helping people and improving bad situations.

But the biggest thing that is a surprise to me is my love life. After 4 years of dealing with a man 13 years older than me I now am in a relationship with a guy 3 years YOUNGER than me. I'm slightly old fashioned and believe that I woman should date a man her age or older. However, I had to go out on a limb and give my coco a chance. If i could deal with a guy 13 years older than me I'll be able to deal with a guy closer my age. I still have my reservations about dating a younger man, but I'm not going to sabotage this based on my ideologies of relationships and dating.

I only have my dreams and can only work hard to achieve my goals.So, farewell to all predictions on life because I clearly can't call it!

Peace,
Brooks
