Who’s Who

Birthday Twin- We share the exact same birthday, down to the year. We have shared some friends with benefits moments, and I really care about him. He isn’t date material, though sometimes I wish he was. He is a great friend and he’s always there when I really need him.

Brazil- Brazil and I have been friends since I was in college, and we met through Ex Best Friend. Her husband is Bearded Guy, and they are expecting their first baby any day now. They are part of the group I hang out with, that includes Old Married Couple. Brazil is a very warm and loving person, who was the first to say that Match was the one.

Coast Sister- She was like my sister from other parents. She was my very best girlfriend, even though she lives across the country. I could tell her anything and she always knew how to cheer me up. Recently she’s gone through some changes, and we’ve grown apart, and I feel like I can’t talk to her anymore.

Couple Wife- I refer to her and her husband and Couple Friends and they recently had a baby, better known as Couple Baby. Couple Wife is a lot of fun, and I love that we’re hanging out more. She’s outspoken, funny, and we always have a good time hanging out.

Drama Chick- She was formerly known as Gym Buddy, but that fizzled because she hates to work out. As I got to know her, Drama Chick definitely fit. She’s a sweet girl, but has a lot of growing up to do. I like hanging out with her, but can’t do it in large doses because I get tired of her princessy-ness.

French Guy- A random guy I met who took me out on an ok date. I was intrigued by him because he was foreign, but we didn’t spark.

Friend Zone- A great guy who I wish didn’t like me. He is roommates with Birthday Twin and a real sweetie. Hopefully we’ll be able to hang as friends, but right now he’s pouting because we’re not more.

Hooded Sweatshirt Guy- A nice guy who doesn’t have a clue about how to treat a lady. Wore the same sweatshirt every time I saw him. Perfect guy for a girl who’s just looking for a warm body to sit next to.

Mama Drama- We met online through blogging, and she was like the wise, older sister I never had. She listened to all of my dating stories, and gave me great advice. She helped me with this website, and it was her idea to start it. She stopped talking to me because she said I offended her, though to this day I have no idea what I said. She truly lives up to her nickname, that’s all I can say.

Match Guy-My boyfriend: We met through the online dating service Match.com. He’s funny, outgoing, and just as cute in real life as his pictures. I can’t tell you how happy this man makes me. He is my other half.

Off Limits- He is just that, off limits. I thought he was a good guy but he turned out to be a real piece of work. He was love with Reality Check, but trying to move on. He is her version of the Friend Zone but now we don’t talk to him. Read the entries to figure out why we hate him so much.

One Night Stand- A very sweet, sexy guy I met when I was drunk. I wouldn’t mind going back for another round, if we were ever in the same town and single.

Personality Twin-She is my younger sister, or the younger version of myself. I adore this girl, and so happy we met. She is always down to go out and flirt and meet guys with me. I just wish she wasn’t moving two hours away from me. Visiting her for weekends by the beach won’t be so bad though.

Potential Guy- This guy has potential, but he hasn’t reached it. He is the king of a great date, but horrible with follow through.

Reality Check-Used to be my best friend who always told it like it is. She was honest, sometimes brutally, but I valued that about her. Then she stopped being honest with herself, and our friendship crumbled.

The Enabler- My party buddy who is always hooking me up with his friends. He’s always encouraging me to do the wrong thing. He is the devil on my shoulder. “Come on, just drink!” or, “There’s room for two upstairs in my guest room, go on, follow him.”

The Mistake- Best friend of The Enabler. While very sweet, he is still a newbie when it comes to women. Has sex like a robot and is very very bad at it.

Unemployed Guy-My last relationship. I knew him for 12 years and he was someone I had built up in my head. He had no career, no ambition, and no motivation. I am much better off without him, but I do care about him and wish he could learn how to pull himself out of the hole he is in.

Younger Guy- Acts much older than he is, and knows how to have a good time. He can dance and he can play, but there is a ghetto quality about him. He’s a fun guy to hang out with, but he doesn’t do it for me. I’d definitely recommend him to a friend!
