Reappearing Act Gone Wrong
It’s amazing how men think they can just disappear and pop back into your life like it’s nothing. But this hangover thought wrong and caught me on the sober end of taco Tuesday. Grab your headphones and get ready to LISTEN to a raw and UNEDITED explanation of why I sent that venomous text in my last post. This is my first time trying a podcast style post, so don’t judge me. I was pissed. Take a listen: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9Z8h58LxeVOWXFfSmRHWTNkazg/view?usp=drivesdk Until there’s a cure… Carmen Jones

I’ve got some ‘splaining to do…
I know, I know- I can’t just drop a screen shot like this and not explain but I’m on my way out the door. Besides, I haven’t even shared the update on my felonious friend I told you about last time. So for now, let’s just say Jon B. won’t be trying to “get together” again. Carmen Jones

Dating Someone Who’s Been to Prison
Where do you draw a line in the sand that separates judgment from an inability to relate? It seems as if a lot of the men trying to date are in situations that make it hard for a woman to want to deal with them.

Single With Benefits
I’m still here and yes, still single. This chick here has been quite busy over the holidays and am just now starting to get into the swing of things after ending the year trying to knock out some of my goals that I’d set which included the usual suspects such as: losing weight, saving money, traveling, meeting “him” and purchasing a home. The bad news is when it came to losing a couple of pounds and meeting him I failed, failed, failed. I got nothing, nada, zero, zilch to offer for either of those two major goals. The good news is that I hit two of the major ones out…

He Didn’t Wear Heels
Last week’s date marked the first time I’ve gone out with a non-black man and while one “quick” meet up will never allow me to claim an interracial dating experience, at least I was open coerced enough to have tried it. During that excruciating hour and eleven minutes with the hangover I’ll call Guido, a few things became perfectly clear to me: (1) nearly every man lies about at least one thing on his dating profile, (2) broken English and improper verb tense isn’t something I’ll ever be able to stomach, and (3) being told how beautiful I am repeatedly in one sitting is a little creepy. That being said,…

The Come Back Charlie’s
Hangovers aren’t really feelings you ever want to return but every now and then, I just might entertain the idea of being entertained. It’s been several years since I’ve been seen the one called The Black Russian, but we have both been in and out of the online dating scene so we have chatted briefly a time or two. Yesterday he decided to reach out via telephone and before I share the how his life has been since we met, here’s a little throwback post to reintroduce or introduce him to you. If you want to read about how that first encounter ended, click here. And now on to The Date with…

We Aren’t Friends Like That
I have never really understood why people feel the need to hold on after the relationship has gone bust or the dating situation has ended, so this “Let’s be friends” idea has always been pointless in my eyes. Unless you have children together and obviously need to be cordial, you need to get along until changes in living arrangements are finalized or maybe in the case of someone getting close to the ex’s children as step-parent extraordinaire, what are other valid reasons and why not just cut ties and move on? Just as I tried explaining to Out of Sight when I saw him last week, I really don’t want to…

The Representative
Sometimes I really wished my levels of perception were dialed down from a level 10 to maybe a 2. Maybe if my instincts about certain situations with these hangovers weren’t so on point, then perhaps I wouldn’t be struggling so much in trying to find my guy. Translation – I should either ignore a lot of shit and be as naïve as a lot of women and just suck it up. The problem is that the thought of doing this aches me to the core of my soul, because it just isn’t in me to ignore the obvious. I guess th is all means the man I’m supposed to be with…

There is NOTHING like a woman scorned!
Is it just the women who seem to lose their flipping minds when they find out their significant other is fooling around? Maybe not, but let’s just say this – we are certainly the ones more likely to let the entire world know when we have been done wrong. I came across this on Facebook earlier today and man, it brought back some memories: If you want the full story, check it out herehttp://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/06/03/girlfriends-amazing-break-up-letter-goes-mega-viral-everything-elseis-at-kelsis-house/ Hmm.. talk about a flashback. The story of the man I just knew I was destined to be with has yet to be shared on My Dating Hangovers, but believe me- it’s a good one. …

He’s Getting Closer but…
Nervousness, excitement and that tingling feeling and a host of other emotions is what I’m feeling right now which seems a little strange because I’ve already met Out of Sight who in just a few short days, will be back in California and this time for good. I’m so happy and can’t wait to give him the biggest hug and some of the longest and wettest kisses possible, and find myself just smiling at the thought of him. Hmmm, what a refreshing feeling. Having stepped outside of my comfort zone of local only encounters and allowing a nearly 4-month friendship (guess that is what I call this “thing”) with someone…

Enron
As of a few moments ago, I just canceled my second date with Enron only he doesn’t know it yet. You’ll notice that this post doesn’t have a title because hell, I’m a little conflicted on what it should be. While I always said the direct approach is the best way of letting someone know you’re not interested, I may have to do a gradual phase out of this one. Let me just say that Enron is an amazingly interesting man. He had my mind enthralled with his initial message to me, and after the second reply something struck me that said “These words are too good to be…

How I’m Handling Being Uninterested
As frustrated as I may be with the dating scene and the failure of past relationships, I still have some compassion buried inside. I feel a little bad for how things have ended with Brooklyn’s Finest, but a part of me feels that the situation was handled in a fairly decent manner. My infamous “Take Care” text finalized things with this one who, based on us noting having met, probably isn’t a certifiable hangover. Being respectful of a person’s time, energy and effort is one of my good traits. Why waste BF’s time? This man was saying and doing all that a man should if he’s interested in a woman…

Guest Post: Dishonest Men, Jaded Women
I’m ready to lay Special Agent’s story to rest in the archives. Thank you all for the text messages, BBM’s, emails and posts in response to “Dishonest Men, Jaded Women. Several of you who choose not to comment here on the blog seem to feel that my reaction was a little too nonchalant, not angry enough, no signs of “slash that fool’s tires”. Trust me when I say this, I was over dealing with him at 4am Saturday morning before all of this went down. The next woman who doesn’t understand his brush off, special assignments or mood swings and has to Google “how to date an asshole” can deal…
