I’m a dad watching my 20 something daughter try to navigate this mess. Can someone start writing about how men need to get their act together and be present, attentive and engaging. Everyone deserves a partner that makes them more, this only happens when men show up. To all the romantics, hold the line, don’t settle and keep the faith - love is worth the wait.

Date yesterday on Sunday for dinner. Anytime I thought about dimming my light a little I thought “Queens Gambit” and showed as my “ May blind you if you look directly” self. Take it or leave it mate.
Brilliantly written, sharp, sarcastic but honest. It makes me wonder: why are we so afraid of keeping things simple and authentic?
If honesty scares someone off, that’s clarity... not failure 🙃
The real loss is when we hide what we feel just to keep someone interested #winning
wear your heart on your sleeve - I wish more people did it 🫶

It’s hell out here….but at least there is comfort in knowing that your daughter will never settle with such a caring father figure as a role model 🙏
Just wrote an article inspired by your comment Kurt - hopefully it meets your request haha!

“…Winning ✌️”
Always
This is genuinely so freaking good. I love it, I want to eat this column, digest it and don’t poop it.
Love.
and so, so, so much truth
I fucking love this. eloquent yet bad bitch vibes. perfection
Thank you!
Really well written.. love the flow and humour.
I feel your pain, being straight forward and enthusiastic seems to garner a frustrating reaction from both sexes..
My question is, though… how much do you chase the toxic? How much is there this inherent instinct to run when chased and desire what you cannot have?
Do you even give the enthusiastic man that first sniff of a chance so you can get to the stage where you then want them..
Or are we all just totally toxic?
Valid. It seems that toxicity courses through my veins. The pattern is an addiction without an obvious cure….
You write so honestly. Refreshing.
Thank you
With the pawns! Go, girl! ❤️

Boys play games, man are chasing. Although some boys never turn man.
