Attaining a Positive Body Image

I have an eerily vivid memory of my young self  trying on shorts in The Children’s Place.

How to Get a Boyfriend in 2017

For years, I was the girl who desperately wanted to be in a relationship, but would never admit it. I would meet guys, and tell them right off the bat that I wasn’t looking for anything serious. I realize now that this was my insecurity talking, but at the time, I thought that was what guys wanted to hear. I thought that if I played it cool for long enough, the guy would have to come around eventually, right? Continue reading How to Get a Boyfriend in 2017
