Dear Bad Kisser:
I didn't say anything because I didn't want to offend you or hurt your feelings by shrieking in disgust after our first kiss. Many times I liked you and didn't want to ruin "a good thing" by being so picky about something as small as a kiss.

Commuting every day on mass transportation can give the mind a lot of time wander. When I lived in Boston I had a one-hour commute each way, and since I arrived and departed at exactly the same time each day, there were several men I got to see routinely. Cute men, I might add.
I called these men my "T boyfriends." Without sounding too stalker-esque I knew their cologne, what books…

I've had many bad first kisses in my time. For that matter, I've had plenty of bad second, third, and fourth kisses too. One of the worst kisses involved an injury.
Like many first kisses, it was precluded by lots of drinks at a club. The overhead lights were dim and the black lights and disco balls were in full affect. With both of these two factors in action it was…

Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl "Will you marry me?" The girl said:"NO!" And the girl lived happily ever-after and went shopping, dancing, camping, drank martinis, always had a clean house, never had to cook, did whatever the hell she wanted, never argued, didn't get fat, traveled more, had many lovers, didn't save money, and had all the hot water to herself. She went to the theater…

I know, I know. It's only one day and it only has to mean what you want it to mean. There's absolutely no reason that one single day, which is corporately sponsored by every greeting and gift company on the planet should motivate any one of us to date or not to date. I get it.
But don't tell me you're not thinking about it.
Whether you agree with the Valentine's Day…
