Paige, I've been with a lot of men... And I have to say, the days I tried to find men on dating apps were the worst. In my opinion, it felt like trying to microwave intimacy with a whole bunch of people who had no business knowing me in the first place.

BUT- that's not the case for everyone! My brother met his fiance on Bumble, WHILE THEY LIVED IN DIFFERENT STATES, and five years later, they're getting married. She's wonderful. Truly- I couldn't ask for a better future SIL.

So, it CAN WORK! And does!

Since I haven't been married, I've done "the dance" a good amount of times. I can attest, NONE OF US, especially men, know what we're doing.

I don't know much about casual sex. But I know you don't owe anyone explanations as to why you aren't sharing your body with them anymore.

I think re: your question about "what are the damn rules" is something ... to look at. 😝😉 Because there are no rules. Humans don't have rules! I wish there were rules for this kind of thing, but it's best to just see where you are each day. None of us wake up as the same person today as we were yesterday, so the person you're talking to on Thursday at 5:04 pm might not be the same person you text on Friday at 9:17 am.

We just gotta boogie with what is. Be here now. ❤️
