On Second First Dates.


After I've been dating the same person for a while what is a good date?



Try a second first date. Essentially, you can recreate certain aspects of your first date. You can relive those exciting first moments and feelings.  You can talk about what you were nervous about back then, and be happy in that you don't have to feel that way on this date. It's a fun and romantic way to celebrate moving forward in your "a while" relationship :)

On Keeping Secrets. [About presents].

Sometimes when in a relationship, it is extremely difficult to keep secrets.
In regard to present secrets, it is always very satisfying when you are able to keep the secret.
However, a lot of the time, it is not a big deal if you let a few present secrets slide, but you feel bummed about it.

This recently happened to me.

I sent my boyfriend a package that contained:

Textured Vegetable Protein





AND
..this picture framed.
One night, he requested for me to bring TVP to him next time I saw him [long distance relationship], but I was so excited that it was already on it's way to him that I told him.

I was very bummed.

BUT today he got the package. If he didn't know what was inside, he would have waited to open it later that night when we talked. Then he wouldn't have gotten to use the TVP with his dinner. But, since he knows I sent him TVP he can have a protein-filled dinner TONIGHT!

Plus, he still doesn't know about the rest of the present, so it's all good :)


And that's why sometimes it's okay to give away present secrets.

[P.S. This was my first attempt at being girlfriend Yoda. I may or may not get better at it].
