You can learn to live with the pain, you can move on as I have after over a decade of self-reflection and hard work, but you never, ever get over it.

A polyamorous relationship is like any other relationship — you set rules and sometimes you hit bumps along the way, but everyone involved knows what is and isn’t acceptable.

It's okay to dump your friends — even friends who have been there for you in the past. Remember today that you deserve good things and good people.

Because you only get one shot at life.

To claim that something is “just politics” is to point out how much privilege you have, either systematically or incidentally.

Is anything keeping you from believing that you deserve good things?

We’ve all made bad choices when it comes to dating. Mine involves Hannah Montana, a tractor, and an awkward invitation to a threesome.

Even a Google search will conflate “queer women” with “lesbian.” So the first and most obvious thing I wish people understood about being a queer woman, is that we exist.
