Best Stories of All Time
If you have never read my stories, or if this is the first time you came across this blog, you can start here. I’ve put together a compilation of the top five stories from the last few years that my readers loved the most. Enjoy!
Molds and Blindfolds
What happens when your blind date blindfolds you?
Love, Lust, and Love Handles
As an expat in China, I get exposed to many thought-provoking phenomena. However, when it comes to sexual performance anxiety, it’s all the same, whether you’re in Toronto, Tokyo, or Timbuktu.
Come Back to My Lemon Castle
I went on a blind date that taught me that sometimes when life gives you lemons, you can’t make lemonade, even when they come from a Lemon Princess.
Hairy on the Prairie
This is a story of when I was eighteen, a freshman, and a virgin.
Lose Face: Instantly
I pulled out my phone to message my friend’s boss that the deal was off, but my friend took the phone away from me, “I have an idea,” she said. The plan was to go with the original plan. Her boss would get me what I wanted, she would show up for the date, and one of her colleagues would leak the info to his wife. That would make a great reality TV episode, I thought.
This is How You Lose Her
This is a follow-up post to A Boo-tiful Night. I’d suggest you read the backstory first. Here’s a quick recap: For our third date, we went to a Halloween party at one of the trendy spots in town. The next morning, when I woke up, the girl in my bed wasn’t my date. This is the story of what happened after that.
A Boo-tiful Night
For our third date, I wanted to take her out to a fancy dinner, but she invited me to go to a Halloween party with her at one of the trendy spots in town. “Let’s meet at the bar,” she said, “and let’s not tell each other what we’re gonna wear.”
She Came, She Saw, She Conquered
She came over with a box of cherries. I rinsed them in the kitchen sink, put them in a bowl, and poured a glass of red for her. I picked a cherry and placed it between her teeth, she bit down softly, and then brought it closer to my lips. I tried to bite it softly while I kissed her, but the whole cherry landed in my mouth, and we both laughed.
The 996 Culture in China
In the past, there were times when I dragged on despite knowing quite well that we were past the end of our story; stumbling like the rolling credits on a black screen, because I kept telling myself, but the sex is so good, or what if I don’t meet anyone else, or it’s going to be awkward seeing her on Monday. So, I kept on suffering, and so did the girl.
First Date in China: 2021 Edition
She wore a beautiful knitted top with spaghetti straps, had long brunette hair, and when she took off her mask, I couldn’t take my eyes off her lips, she was gorgeous. Nothing like her filtered images on Tinder (digital bunny ears, cat whiskers, and the reindeer antlers.)
What if I’m Single Forever?
Ten years ago, I met a girl I thought I’ll marry. Our beginning was perfect, just like what you see in a Christmas romcom. It was a Saturday night in Toronto, snow danced in the cold but gentle wind outside, and pine wood crackled in the fireplace inside. The moment I walked into the bar and saw her, I was in love.
Let’s Talk ‘bout Sex Baby Doll
It’s been 275 days since I last had sex. In January 2020, I went to Colombia to spend my winter holidays, where I met an Italian-Colombian girl from Medellin (Pablo Escobar’s town). Then the pandemic happened, and everything changed.
No Condom, I Love You
She told me she hated sunsets, because they made her sad, they reminded her that she was selfish; and instead of spending this valuable time with her family, she was sitting on a hill on the southwest coast of Sri Lanka, telling her secrets to a stranger.
