hey
I have followed your blog for a while… and im trying to understand your point of your love obsession. I dont know You but you do come across as desperate to have a guy. Really over the top…
But maybe you are trying to say something else?

Hope you're having a lovely weekend Queen Melissa.
Melissa Blake says
Hey Abbie — thanks for asking. I'll be elaborating on your question in a future blog post, but here's the short answer: My blog is about my search for love with a physical disability. That's the focus of my blog, so of course it's going to mainly cover topics that have to do with love. Am I desperate for a guy? HELL no.
I'm merely documenting my journey and trying to show people views of love from perhaps a lense different from their own.

I like the clear and succint answer you replied to anonymous. I am also looking forward to your future blogs on the subject. Desiring to love and be loved is not desperate. I find it very liberating that you discuss the subject so openly. I am quite sure you are empowering so many of us, with your poignant and honest observations of the need to be loved.
Melissa Blake says
Thanks, Style! You're so sweet! xoxo
