Hi there! I'm Jen, a teacher by day and a dater by night. Welcome to my dating blog, where I share the rollercoaster ride that is my dating life.

Having spent most of my adult years single, I'm now actively looking for that special someone to "do life" with. At least if it doesn't happen I can't say I didn't try, right? 

"You're so pretty and you've got such a great personality, someone would sweep you up in a heartbeat," they say. Unfortunately, it's not that easy. I don't want just anyone. Yes, I want kids, but I'm not about to settle for the first person who can check that box. I want someone who enhances my life and makes me a better person. It turns out, finding that magical mix is like trying to find a needle in a haystack, if the haystack was full of dating apps and awful first dates.

Over the years, I've been on more dates than I can count—some were fantastic, but most, well, were downright disastrous. My friends often joke that I could write a book with all the outrageous and hilarious experiences I've had, and so, here I am, blogging instead!

Whether you're single, dating, or just here for the entertainment, I hope my adventures bring a smile to your face and perhaps a little comfort in knowing you're not alone in the dating trenches.

So, grab a cup of coffee (or a glass of wine), and let's dive into the wild, wonderful, and often wacky world of dating together!
