There’s something about looking backward that changes the way we look at our younger selves. At 20, we think we’re grown. We may have a job, be in college, serving in the military, building a relationship, or trying to figure out what we’re going to do with our lives. We…
Let’s talk about dating. Not the cute, butterflies-in-your-stomach, “he texted me good morning” version. I’m talking about dating as a grown woman.
