The First Time I Asked A Guy Out
Corey worked at the 711 next to the sub shop where I worked. He'd often come in and ask for a free sandwich. Most of the time, I would make it for him. While I made his food, we would flirt with one another.

My Thoughts About Marriage in 2025
It's been nearly 20 years since I graduated from high school and the majority of my friends have since gotten married and had children. I'm very happy for them and glad that they're raising their own families. As for me, I'm still single and have the desire of getting married one day. One of the reasons of why I'm still without a romantic partner is because of a man's unrealistic dating expectations. The struggles I face are being "too old", whatever that meant to most men. I don't like the word old being used in a negative sense towards me, because what they mean by that is even if I'm a few years older than they are, they'll still find a way to use my age as an excuse to reject me. Ageism in the dating scene is real. Honestly, I take offense to a random man calling me old. Sure, I don't look like my age, but I'm still a human being with feelings at the end of the day. Also, the biggest complaint that most men have with me is that I don't smoke or drink. It's not to say that there's anything wrong with either one of those things. I have never smoked a day in my life, and I stopped drinking alcohol about a decade ago. I can find things to do in order to have a good time. While we're on the subject, another complaint I get from most men is that I don't go to parties or the club. If you love going to these places, good for you. Most men would see me as too boring and uninteresting, honestly, I'm more of a homebody. Watching my favorite movies and TV shows. Don't get me wrong. I'll go to places like the arcade or the movies every once in the while. Those are the kind of places I love going to and want a potential partner to enjoy those things with me. Finally, most men pass me over because of my overall appearance. I'm not the most attractive man in the world, but I believe every man should have a chance at love. Growing up, I was bullied for my dark skin and told that I looked ugly. Looks are subjective and beauty fades.

She Hated LGBTQ People—So We Flooded Her Bakery with Pride Cakes. AI-Generated.
My sibling worked with a woman who made their life miserable. Let’s call her Diane. She worked as the only cake decorator at a small-town grocery store—not a big box chain, but one of those local places where everyone knows everyone. From the outside, the store seemed friendly, warm, even community-focused. But behind the bakery counter? Hatred quietly simmered under a layer of fondant and fake smiles.
