When the Cockroaches Say Goodbye

My roommate and I have a longtime saying: “When the cockroaches say goodbye.”I can’t remember exactly when we came up with the phrase, probably one night after downing a few bottles of wine on our blue velvet couch, but I know it came from an uncanny, shared experience.In the three years I had lived in my Brooklyn apartment, I was lucky enough to have just two encounters with the freakishly large bugs endemic to the city. Unfortunately, that second encounter came the night before a big move from...

An Unexpected Cure for the Dating Crisis

By the time I was 10 years old, I already knew my life as a Philadelphia sports fan would be one of pain and suffering. The Eagles had lost Super Bowl XXXIX three years prior (and wouldn’t claim their first championship until 13 years later). In 2001, the 76ers biffed it in the NBA Finals. As for the Flyers, well, they haven’t held the Stanley Cup since 1975. But that all changed in 2008.

Real Men Bird Watch

One early spring, around three years ago, I found myself in an empty bar in Salt Lake City, Utah, with my dad. We had been skiing all day at Park City with my aunt and uncle, but had decided on a nightcap just the two of us. Taking a seat at the bar, we ordered two shots of whiskey and a couple of cocktails. After chatting with our bartender about the backwards alcohol laws the state enforced, our conversation somehow shifted to birding.


I asked my dad, a longtime birder, what his birding W...

It’s a Park Date Summer. Here’s What to Bring.

Two celebrity couples — Zoë Kravitz and Harry Styles and Joe Alwyn and Sarah Pidgeon — were separately pap’d this week, getting quite cozy in what appeared to be the same open field in London. Surrounded by noticeably tall, ungroomed grass, the couples looked utterly complacent on their respective open-air park dates: their tangled limbs spread out on a picnic blanket while they shared vapes and bottles of wine and snapped photos of each other. While commenters speculated if the two back-to-back...

Why Aren't Men Asking Women Questions on Dates?

The best dating advice I received after ending a three-year relationship and finally feeling ready to “get back out there” came from a coworker: After a date, you have to ask yourself, did you have a good time because he’s fun, or because you are? 


This question has bounced around in my mind in the aftermath of many dates with men I’d initially deemed a success. Admittedly, reevaluating a date can be somewhat difficult for me since I tend to drink one too many Dirty Martinis (blame the nerve...

Take It From a Woman: You Need to Know One-Night Stand Etiquette

After listening to a friend recount a “demoralizing” one-night stand, as she described it, I started thinking about hookup etiquette. As someone who engages in casual sex, and often substance-infused casual sex, I have been in grey-ish areas myself. These situations don’t feel particularly nefarious, but they’re also not sexual experiences I get excitement or satisfaction from.
