She Said Archives:
We haven’t really discussed this before, but it may come as no surprise that I come from a long line of cheaters. In fact, aside from a very select few, every member of my family has been unfaithful to their spouses. Could the fact that I was born into a marriage which was over even before [...]
As I embark on the third month of my “If you build it, He will come” year, I have to take a moment to reflect on last month’s progress. Gotta say, compared to January, February was more than a little painful. In fact, I think I have a few battle wounds.
It started out fine; I [...]
Still licking my wounds from the recent [Salt & Pepper] break-up by text, last night I decided to give myself a big dose of ego medicine – in the form of my friends. So I had a few of them over for dinner. A few meaning two – one of my best guy friends, and [...]
“Hi [She Said] – It has been really great to get to know you. You are a great person and you make me laugh. I have recently met and been spending time with another gal and it’s a relationship that I want to pursue. I want to be honest with you rather than string you along. [...]
It’s that time. Well, at least I think it’s that time – the, “What’s the status of our relationship?” time. Over a month has gone by. Over 10 dates have gone by.

In my current dating delirium, I actually almost forgot that my least favorite day of the year is approaching – President’s Day. Just kidding. Yep, it’s true, I hate Valentine’s Day. Always have, always will. When you’re single, Valentine’s Day is a miserable, torturous day. You listen to your friends making their elaborate plans; you [...]
As I look back on the first five weeks of this year, I can’t help but smile. Dare I say it – compared to last year, life is definitely good. Last year at this time I had pneumonia. Last year at this time I was jobless. Last year at this time I was totally, and [...]
I had a date with four men last night. No, this wasn’t part of my current dating bonanza, this was actually closer to a business dinner, but it ended up being me, and four men, with three out of the four blatantly pursuing me. (The fourth was married and if he was pursuing me, I [...]
Just say no.
Those 3 words were the foundation of an advertising campaign that First Lady Nancy Reagan created in the 1980’s to discourage children from engaging in recreational drug use. The ads featured different ways to teach young people to say no to things that they felt pressured to do, be it drugs, sex, violence, [...]
