I want to shout this from the rooftops! When I was first researching Natural Family Planning and Fertility Awareness Methods as a 21-year-old single, 99% of all blog posts I read were either targeted at married couples or newly engaged couples. And I didn’t fit into either of those categories. Because of that, I wasn’t sure if I should start charting or wait until I got engaged someday. As I read article upon article, I somehow learned about the book… Read more »

Today is my boyfriend and my third year anniversary! It’s crazy for me to think that it was three whole years ago that I was freaking out, wondering if he would ask me out and what I would do if he didn’t. I shared a bit of our story three years ago when I announced that we were dating. But today I want to share the whole story. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Mostly because I love reflection….

You know… You meet a cute guy and then he smiles that smile at you and your heart skips a beat and your mind runs ahead to your future dating relationship and then marriage. Today, we’re talking about why it’s a problem to view guys as prospective husbands. I’m not talking about wondering if the guy you’re dating is the person you’re supposed to marry- that’s different. … Read more »

Have you ever placed your identity on something other than God? Personally, I have placed my identity on singleness… but I’m getting ahead of myself. ;) A little more than a year ago, something happened in my life that I had never experienced before: I became someone’s girlfriend. And as I started processing what this meant and the fact that my boyfriend and I were now dating, I realized it was hard for me to think that I was no… Read more »

I’ve been reading Kristen Clark and Bethany Baird’s blog, Girl Defined, for a few years now. When I heard that Kristen and Bethany were writing a new book called Love Defined, I was interested to see what they would say in it. I often find myself agreeing with about 85% of what they post on their blog; I think they are a little bit more conservative than I am when it comes to some things. So I was curious to see what I… Read more »

The following is a guest post by my roommate, Bonnie I have never dated anyone. I’m in my third year of college, and I’m still as I’ve always been: single. This fact doesn’t define me, lessen my value in any way or mean I’m not just as worthwhile as anyone who is or has been in a relationship. And honestly, a lot of me not dating anyone has been my choice. You see, when I was a freshman in high… Read more »

 The following is a guest post by my dear friend, Janae. Over and over and over again… it felt like we were on a merry-go-round. It was fun and everything until we tried to get off and walk away as if nothing happened.  The nausea and headaches and spinning became stronger each time. I was walking sideways in the relationship, no matter how much I tried to pretend that everything was fine. Honestly, I was sick of trying to hide… Read more »
