When I first met this dude from the Hinge app, I drove about an hour north to his momās house (where he lived) while she was out of town visiting his sisterās family for thanksgiving. I had talked to this dude for about a month on the phone (not text, actually hour-plus calls) cause he was a bit older and more old-fashioned (texting with him seemed like conversing with a dumb child). First time we spoke on the phone was a full moon on Halloween night. He told me he loved me cause I think he was out late with friends doing drugs. (Obviously already a flag of some sort, but over the month conversing, he won me over.) Now, to the in-person meeting: as I got out of my car at his house, I see this skinny, long-haired, shirtless hippy on the second story porch. He comes down the stairs to greet me, and we hug as Iām polite and do like him. As I follow him up the stairs to his front door, I see his shorts are sagging quite a bit. I stared at his cute little butt crack the whole way upā¦ that entire first day/date was so crazy and awkward but also amazing and comfortable. I am still āhomiesā with this dude over four years later, but definitely one of the most awkward experiences first meeting someone.

We met at a concert through a bunch of mutual friends and chatted for a while - we both had partners at the time so nothing came of it, but we matched on hinge a couple years later and he remember the exact conversation we had at the venue. We dated for a few months but it didnāt line up - we stayed friends and eventually were both single, doing everything together, and texting non-stop. He asked if I ever thought about us dating again and then I pretended to not be in love with him for about 3 months until I couldnāt take it anymore. Weāve been together for over a year now and heās my best friend in the world - I love him so much and feel so grateful for the universe continuously putting us back together.

I was at the bar and my friend was telling me about this girl that her friend had a crush on and the description sounded vaguely familiar so I asked them to show me her Instagram and she pulled it up and put it on the table. I scrolled through to find a good picture and said āyes I do know her sheās-ā¦right thereā and I looked up and she was running towards me and I screamed her name and we hugged and made a huge scene. Definitely not slick wingman wise but I couldnāt help it because of how much of a coincidence it was.
This girl was constantly on tour up and down the east coast and never in town really so we barely saw each other but always had a good time whenever we did. It was so random and felt cosmic. I introduced her to my friends and she hung out for a bit. Someoneās far away, āunattainableā Instagram crush popping up at the table, as soon shes brought up. It was so cool, Iāll never forget it.

This is my ultimate artistic goal with all the little pieces of awesomeness Iāve procured, like a crow with shiny objects. These discovered-treasures deserve a forever-home in collage form.

All of Holy Mother Earth is alive and listening to us. Have you ever tried speaking aloud to Mother Nature?
Hug a tree, stop and smell a pretty flower. Tell this plant how you love it and appreciate its sweet fragrance and colorful bloom. Theyāre listening and will project love back.
Can you bond with a tree enough for it to come kiss you on the cheek with its leafy branch?
