This is an interview I did with Valentino, my friend Rita’s dog..I’ve spent the past week watching him while Rita checks out the west coast. We’ve had a blast together. We laughed, we cried, we really bonded. We started to feel comfortable around each other and I finally asked him what he loves the most and rather then tell me, he showed me.
It’s a very simple question but it asks for so much. You want their hand on your stomach so they can feel you breathing. You want the hand of that person to slowly slide lower and caress your pubic hairs. You want to come over and feel wanted. Coming over is about enjoying the experience and being held accountable to the time and space you share. I’ve recently felt that I want to come over [...]
Nyron and Why love is worth it… NYRON LOVE INTERVIEW from 2browngirlstalkaboutlove on Vimeo.
Okay so I stuck to my promise to study The Rules. This weekend, I read through the introduction/prologue of the book a few times. I decided if I was going to dedicate myself to religiously following The Rules that I would have to bust out a list. I combed through the chapter ( about 3 pages ) and wrote down every directive thing that the authors told me to do. Mind you it’s only [...]

So on my way into the city, I usually pick up a copy of the Metro NY free newspaper. I love it because you get the gist of stories. No one article takes more than ten minutes to read so I can usually blast through the whole paper right before I reach 86th street. This makes me feel super productive…kind of like when I read the Goosebumps book series as a kid…blow through a whole [...]
because I lost the book for two weeks and then I found it…but I haven’t read it because the only time I tend to read is on the subway and I’m embarrassed to read The Rules in public so I keep The Rules in my bag thinking maybe one day I’ll grow some nerve and read it…but I don’t…I did, however, take it out at work this week and Lina, my boss, kept it on her [...]
Sometimes I think it’s awesome…sometimes I know I’ll be a manizer for the rest of my life. With that said here is an amazing video/song by my homeboy ERiMAJ…

Since this blog started, I’ve been actively engaging people in discourses about love. I really enjoy hearing different viewpoints on the subject and the more people I talk to, the more I realize what a lovesick nation we are. We LOVE talking about love. We crave the opportunity to fall into those conversations where we can bring up a story about a friend of a friend who fell madly in love with someone they met [...]

So I’m house-sitting this weekend and the first time I tried to get into my friends apartment I didn’t realize that the process of opening the door is completely counter-intuitive. You have to turn the key to the left in order to the get inside. So I’m sitting here like a dork turing the key to the right totally failing, freaking out at the thought of not being able to get in but I finally [...]

Beautiful short about love by Martin Piroyansky NO ME AMA (SHE DOESN’T LOVE ME) from santiago capulos on Vimeo.
Since I started this project I’ve had some AMAZING conversations with people about love! Someone mentioned to me this week that my past entries about love have been really negative. I have to say, I love love I really do! I AM a weirdo hopeless romantic!! I am I promise! I need to change my perspective. Get a little happier. Stop writing so much about misery and past failings and move on so that I [...]
Today I saw you’re in a relationship with her. I knew she existed but I was ok never seeing a face, never knowing a name . I was ok. I do not love you and she probably does but I want you for me. I want you in the most selfish way. I don’t want to care what’s best for you and I…I want to care what’s best for my ego. I’m revealing a lot for [...]
