Summer Lovin’

Ready For A Hot Summer Fling?

ALL. SUMMER. LONG.

That’s right. #DateMe has been extended through the summer.

Sick of us yet? TOO BAD. Because we LOVE You.

We’ve been running for TWO AND A HALF YEARS. Which is kind of mind-blowing.

But we wouldn’t be here without the immense support of our audience members. AND  so many people who have given positive write-ups and features.

Meet The Windy City Bloggers

Last summer, before I started DateMe Diaries, I wanted to do my research. And I discovered the perfect group — Windy City Bloggers.

I dove in hard. I love seeing pictures of Fashionable people (I wish I was one!), Foodies, Fitness tips, and just reading people’s personal stories.

#DateMe is my personal story. And I’m always so happy when it resonates with people. Sometimes I wonder why as I never consider myself that interesting of a person. I would MUCH rather hear about other people than shine a spotlight on me.

My Inner Self Says…

Look Away

Look Away. Look AWAY!


Yep. That’s the real me. The voice inside my head. Scary, right?!

ANYWAY, my favorite parts of the show are interacting with the audience and chatting with them afterwards. I love hearing their individual dating adventures almost more than I enjoy telling my own story.

I guess my point is — We’re all interesting in our own ways. And I so greatly admire all these Bloggers who spend HOURS every week crafting perfect posts and sharing THEIR personal stories.

SO… I thought I’d start a new feature this summer where we…

Share The Love

…and highlight our supporters. And people that we are fans of, too!

A few weeks ago (and last summer) I invited several bloggers out to see #DateMe. And the response was so positive!

I had the best time meeting everyone after the show.

This week we feature Dulce Arroyo.

She’s a high school teacher in Chicago. And her blog A Juxtaposed Mind is where she shares her…

“…thoughts, raves, opinions, and any beautiful or interesting moments in my life I wish to post.”

I love her upbeat attitude and adventurous spirit.

And she was kind enough to feature us recently in her blog post: A Sweet Start To Summer 2017

It’s a great read and features several other things Dulce is excited about for the Summer of 2017.

Thank you, Dulce!

We’ll be looking at other Bloggers in the coming weeks. So stay tuned!

And Now… YOU!!

Every week we feature our favorite moments from the previous week’s #DateMe audience.

We had submissions via:

YIKES! I’ll be honest. This name sorta scares me.

Before our first date I request that we exchange nonsensical braggadocios Tweets — You know, just to make sure you’re qualified for your position.

Fashionably Nerdy

This is more my speed. I got the Nerdy part DOWN. And I always appreciate good fashion.

Favorite Pics

I’ll do my regular collage of pics below. But some audience Pics need to be posted with their captions…

Secondly, he’s wearing a Fanny Pack.

Third, his friend spelled it “Fanypack” and owned it.

I love Everything about this post.
