Hello!

Welcome to my blog. I make no promises as to what I'm going to write or even when. I write about whatever is on my mind when I get the chance (but I'm working on posting more often). Feel free to leave me messages about what you want to see here or what you think about what I've already said. See ya!

What ever happened to how things used to be?

When I say this, I don't mean everything. For example, I'm super glad we're not still wearing this...





And that modern technology doesn't look like this...



But there is something I really wish could go back in time a little...



No, not making out in public with people we don't know. That certainly hasn't died out. I mean dating how it used to be.


What happened to getting to know somebody, going on a 1st date, 2nd date... THEN officially becoming a couple? I would love for a guy I like to ask me on a real date. Anymore, it's just "Hey there. I like you. You like me. We're dating." Facebook official. Done.


Sure it's convenient... but seriously, it's kind of lame. People are in and out of "relationships" so fast it's sickening. If we went back to the method I like, it would dramatically decrease the number of changes to everybody's "relationship status" so we don't all have to see it in our news feeds every 3 days.


(If you find yourself doing this, please for the sake of your friends, reevaluate your approach to dating.)


Think about it. Let me know what you think. I'll be hoping my way of dating comes back in style (unlike that dress).


Now I just need to find that guy. I'll let you know when he shows up. :-)


Have a lovely night and a beautiful tomorrow.

  1. There are still people who prefer this dating style that you are talking about. I know I personally like it that way. Its just now with how easy it is for people to stay in touch, find out what each other is up to, etc. it seems to me that people feel that they can take that to relationships *shrug* just my thought. Stay positive and there will be people who will want the same thing you want.

    1. Oh the irony of this. We did NOT date this way! But happy 235 days until our wedding. :)
