Drop Dead Gorgeous Syndrome – Curse, Blessing or Both?

As a teenager, I was convinced every "pretty girl" had the perfect life. All they had to do was smile. I was not an attractive teen and felt cheated by life.

The little I did not understand this spiritual truth. ...

Providence Dating Success Series – How We Date Now

If this is how we date now, dating has changed. Everything has changed, so why not dating as well? I was reading the following article, This Is How We Date Now, and found it stimulating and disturbing. I do not have direct experience with this world of dating. My relationships, past and present, are not on display on Facebook, Twitter, or anywhere else. Even before the Internet, I have never been one desiring to create happy, shining photographs posing with fake smiles. The fact that I have never felt moved to do so does not mean I do not understand the need to document life as positive and happy. My denial expresses itself differently....
