A Note From Our Founder

I wrote my first book The City of Dating, A Memoir, after a never-ending trend of failed relationships and situationships. I felt discouraged from dating, wondering if I was ever going to find my so-called soulmate. To understand the meaning of dating, I took to writing thank you letters to my past dates, relationships, and one-night stands—letters that were never sent but published into a book. It was only after I healed my past wounds, I learned dating shaped me into the woman I am today.

Dating is more than finding one soulmate. It is a lifeline to who we are and who we are meant to be. Dating opens us up to a world of new connections, perspectives, cultures, and spirituality. A universal journey to be enjoyed at every stage, or age. I founded The City of Dating to switch the narrative—to show how dating and relationships grow in many forms from all the connections we make in our lives. The City of Dating is where we date to find ourselves, not our soulmates.

It's your story. Build your narrative.
