Hey y’all. I know one of the top questions on your mind is, “But what does dating look like during COVID-19?” I mean, we keep seeing people get engaged so I just guess they must be really good at ring toss. I hesitated to write this blog. Not for the reason you may think (ie. […]

Liz’s Set-up Service, Part 3: The Process
If you’ve read my last two blog posts on the idea and the basis stats of the great set-up service experiment of 2015, you already have the gist and the kind of numbers and demographics I was working with. So let’s get down to how I went about setting people up. First, though, there must […]
Liz’s Set-up Service, Part 2: The Basic Stats
I have to clarify for y’all. My Set-up Service was an experiment that I tried 5 years ago in 2015. It’s not something I’m currently doing or planning to do again at the moment (although I now realize how my “Liz’s Set-up Service, Part 1: The idea” post could have seemed that way). That being […]
Liz’s Set-up Service, Part 1: The Idea
My brother Kyler and I like to talk about a lot of crazy ideas. In 2015, he and I were both single. He’s good and married now; I’m still good and single. I am a serial matchmaker and just have the hardest time NOT trying to set people up, even though sometimes people hate me […]
34 Reasons Why I’m Still Single at Age 34
About a month ago, a friend excitedly said, “Your birthday is coming up, isn’t it?” “Wow,” I thought. “How does she remember my birthday? So thoughtful.” Out loud. “Yes, yes it is.” Her reply, “YES! I’m so excited to read your blog about reasons you’re single.” You’re welcome. 😛 For those who are new to […]
Strange Ways I’ve Set (or almost set) People Up
Two years ago, I wrote a post about 5 Crazy Ways I’ve Been Set Up. Today, I add the companion post with ways I have set other people up, or in some cases, tried to set others up because I rarely succeed. But who cares about success rates in dating, right?
33 Reasons Why I’m Still Single at Age 33
So here we are again. “[I’ve] had a birthday, shout hooray….One year older, and one year older”… as my modified version of the Primary birthday song goes. The laughs, the tears, the “I seriously can’t believe that even happened” are now here for your review. Presenting… 33 Reasons Why I’m Still Single at Age 33 […]
32 Reasons Why I’m Still Single at age 32
Woah. Another year went by just like that. I didn’t want to write another blogpost like this. And, quite frankly, I thought I’d surely run out of reasons why I’m single. But no. Apparently I can go on for years (please, no). (Really, please no). The bad thing about getting older and still being single […]
5 Crazy Ways I’ve Been Set Up
I’ve probably gone on at least a million “blind” dates in my life. I say “blind” because there’s hardly any such thing since the advent of Facebook (and Google and LinkedIn, not that I would know where to look…). Thus the picture of blinds on my post. Dates these days are less blindfold-y and more […]
June roses in…October
“God gave us memories, that we might have June roses in the December of our lives.” — James Barrie (paraphrased by Thomas S. Monson). I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s a December of my life…more like an October. And I do agree with Anne of Green Gables, “I’m so glad I live in a world where […]
