The Writeventures of Emaleecious

Nothing is private. Not when you have to put it online anyway. I bet the account owners of Ashley Madison have realized this a little too late. Funny, this isn't even the first time a dating website as been hacked into. Yet we find people flocking to these websites every time. source  I don't even want to imagine how those who have accounts on Ashely Madison (Read all about it here source 1 and here source 2 ) must be feeling right now. Its like all their secrets have been exposed. How do you face your spouse? How do you explain to your family? Your friends? How do you raise your head up when you have been caught pants down  with your hands in the proverbial cookie jar? How does your partner (who probably has been faithful to you) trust you again? WOW!!! Is there really a thing called Married dating?Like how can you be married and still be dating at the same time? I ain't no judge, but it just sounds so wrong!!! Wrong on all counts.If you are marri...

I started reading in earnest and the more I read, the more desperate I became and my fear of failing knew no bounds. I was afraid because I didn’t want to fail. You see, I used to fail almost every exam before, well, not total failure, but the kind that they call “let-m...

Jealousy is really a bad thing. I have always sworn that I can never be jealous of a man... Aramide, this is not saying I was jealous...I  just  came very close to it. Here's what happened...

Is this work related, and he goes, no, its my friend xyz, remember, I told you about the person before. I go "ok" Later on, I picked up the phone and was going through my own messages to him ( I am weird that way, read just my messages to him and his to me) and another message comes in from him, so I tell him and I proceed to read the message. At this stage, I was curious. I read it and the message is "funny". I have this look on my face and start going over all other recent messages by the same sender.
