We often hold on to “good things”.

We were once taught that beauty is parameters. Numbers. Tables. Gloss. 90-60-90, straight arrows, hair - like a shampoo ad, skin - as if you have never been bothered by stress, lack of sleep and a cat that knocked over a vase at 3 am.

They say that a woman either loves perfume or hasn't found that one - her scent. And it's true. Because perfume is not just a bottle. It's an extension of your character. It's a mood in liquid form. It's a way to say something about yourself without saying a word.

We all know this old as the world phrase: "Happiness is not in money." It is usually said by people who either already have money or do not have the Internet to order another parcel from the marketplace.

Let's be honest: we all beat ourselves up for mistakes sometimes. Maybe you snapped at a loved one, or embarrassed yourself in a group... 😔 And now thoughts are spinning: "I'm a terrible person" or "How could I do that?"

Today I want to tell you a small but important secret. Often in profiles on dating sites or in apps you see the phrase: "Looking for a serious relationship." And, I admit, this wording raises questions for many of you. Some perceive it with caution 🤔, some - skeptically 🙄, and some just scroll on. Let's figure it out: what is really behind it?

Hello, supermen! 🦸‍♂️I'm not here to lecture you 🙅‍♀️, but to save your time and mood 💬⚡. There are things in correspondence that act like a cold shower on a first date 🥶 and today I will tell you about them honestly and with humor.

The men women are willing to communicate with and those they often ignore can be very different from each other. This phenomenon does not always lend itself to a logical explanation, but there are several reasons why this happens. I want to share with you some thoughts that can help you understand why women sometimes do not respond and what in men's behavior or approach can influence this.❤️

My name is Nastya, and I am the same woman who "accidentally" registered on a dating site two years ago during a break between coffee ☕ and Zoom 📞. Spoiler: I am still together with that man 💑. Not because I was lucky 🍀. But because both of us — yes, and he too 💪 — worked to keep the spark alive a month after the first "hey, what are you into?" 🔥.

Hi! I'm writing to you on behalf of a woman who knows how it all looks from our side. Sometimes we give signals that men read incorrectly. Or correctly but ignore. It's time to clarify! Men often ask: "Is she really interested or is she just flirting for self-esteem?" The answer is not always obvious, but here are some honest hints. If you are not looking for a game, but want to understand who is in front of you read carefully 👇

I'm an ordinary woman who, like many others, sits in dating apps, opens direct messages on social networks and... most often sighs 😒, closing yet another "Hi, how are you?". No, I'm not a snob 🙅‍♀️. It's just that, like any other woman, I don't want to be just another "mailing list" on your list ✉️. I want to feel that you're writing to me, and not just "catching a chance" 🎯.

When someone mentions "traditional relationships," people often jump to old clichés - dusty gender roles, stiff dinners, a woman in the kitchen, and a man carrying all the weight. 🙄 But honestly? I think that's such a shallow view of something much deeper and more beautiful.

Recently, at the checkout at the store, a young guy accidentally called me "grandma." He was, of course, embarrassed, I smiled. And then, returning home, I thought: it's funny how we are still afraid of age. Especially women's.

If someone had told me a couple of years ago that I would voluntarily drag myself to the gym in the morning, I would have laughed. Not because I don’t like movement. But because the gym seemed to me something alien, loud, metallic, and necessarily with alien views in which comparisons can be read.

Sometimes I think that flowers are letters. They speak without words, but they contain so many meanings that each petal becomes a line.

Reading is like friendship. Sometimes a chance meeting in a bookstore turns into true love. Sometimes – disappointment after the first few pages. But always – something personal.

A man begins receiving letters from a woman who lived in the same apartment… 50 years ago.

A physicist wakes up in a world where she made different life choices.

🙏🏻🙏🏻IN MY FAMILY WE ALL LOVE MAY WEEKENDS! This is a tradition that has been going on for many, many years!
