I think monogamous people can learn a bunch from non monogamous people, let’s dive in! Follow us @sorryionlyreadromcoms and @helloaanu

At the end of season 1, I talked about 3 books that changed my life and how one of them, Ace, by Angela Chen, helped me come to terms with being on the ace-spectrum, specifically, being demisexual. Reading that book was very eye-opening for me in the way it permitted me to define my outlook on dating, sexuality, consent and it definitely added more…

So, I have been having tons of conversations around how people show up in relationships, both platonic and romantic relationships. You really can’t look at relational behavior without looking at attachment styles. I started paying attention to my attachment style when I noticed that there are specific people, friends, and acquaintances, that I felt…

There are 3 books that I consider life-changing. By life-changing I mean, reading them created a light bulb moment, changed my perspective, helped me name things about myself, and most importantly changed my behavior. I don’t think I’ve talked about them here before, so let's dive in!Follow us on Instagram @sorryionlyreadromcoms Follow Aanu everywh…

Anywho I decided to talk about something that every romcom can’t do without, THE TROPE!! We see it in every plot in different forms, we can’t go without our thropes, they are tropes for a reason. Tropes are like comfort food, our blankie, it's like that good old faithful grandma recipe that will never fail you if you tweak it right. You know and fo…

Friendships also play a key role in romantic relationships, what your friends perceive as healthy matters, they are who you bounce ideas off of, they make the call when you ask “should I be worried, this is what X person did” and they are most likely the consistent baseline that your romantic partner is measured against. By this I mean that if your…

First we have Bolatito by Seyi Amao, now off the bat I think this book should have been called Ifunanya because quite a bit of tragedy happened in this book and the only thing that kept me going is the optimism and spirit of this child named Ifunanya. A lot of things were explored in this book, it talked about PCOS, intimate partner violence, insur…

I like valentine’s day, I like chocolates, roses, dates, pampering sessions, rom coms, poems… Speaking of, I love poems, poetry, they pack a punch with the simplest of lines and I think one of the things I miss the most is being able to grunt and snap at a spoken word event. Anywho, I decided to read some of my favorite love poems, share why I love…

Anyway, Valentine's day is coming, capitalism is salivating at the feast and carnage of the day, I love it for her. And for the single folks I decided to pull some dating tips to get you a partner, or at least a date for the day. I mean, you deserve a teddy bear, fox cookies, a notepad, questionable perfume, plastic flowers, and cadbury chocolate a…

I figured that a monthly wrap up might be a bit long so I decided to do a mid month check in … let’s dive in!

So it’s the beginning of the year, and everyone is setting their reading goals for the year, so I thought to share some of my goals, some themes I hope I get to read and some of the barriers I may have that you may relate with, I will also share my tbr for the month of January. Let’s dive in!Follow us on Instagram @sorryionlyreadromcoms and Aanu @h…

Last week Shonda did the lord’s work and gave us Bridgerton, funny thing, I’d never read the books or heard of the author, prior to the show (I don’t know if this is the point where my romcom card is taken away from me) but twitter was all abuzz about it, being a Shonda stan, it was definitely a must watch for me and people… I have thoughts. Thankf…

What’s that thing they say about comedy being tragedy plus time. I don’t think anyone ever thinks that they will ever laugh about an event that once felt like your heart drowning in your chest but hey! Anyway, of course this prompted me to take a look at how break ups show up in romcoms, let's dive in!…

Hi folks! I got Clap When You Land from @rovingheights on Instagram! You can follow us @sorryionlyreadromcoms and @helloaanu

In romcoms, love and the acknowledgment of it is written as the gold standard for character growth. We forget that love can be unhealthily given and people can love badly even if the other character doesn’t know it.

So this week's episode is a campaign for reading more “guy next door”, the pot bellied love interest, or maybe a 2 pack, not six pack, the short man, listen, or medium height, not every time 6ft tall, yada yada.

Bisexual persons are more likely to experience depression, intimate partner violence and anxiety. So understanding bisxuality, what it is, what it isn’t, is so key.

So, for the last couple of weeks, I feel like I have been taking a stab at romcoms, for someone that unapologetically stans these books, I’ve been quite on the critical side when it comes to examining how romcoms push some unhealthy and to be honest very anti feminist positions. However, while it has its problematic sides, can we make the conclusio…

So when was the last time you read something like “do we mind if we tried this instead? Or maybe this isn't working, can we pause? Or a simple, this is what I like” I don’t think I have.

“your mouth is saying no, but your body is saying yes” is it though, let’s talk about this!

So we don’t get a Nigerian version of a queer romcom hero like Mellissa Brayden (the author I mentioned in the last two episodes), instead we are going through politics and war and rites and passages and its always a great learning moment but where is the fluff?

Have you ever read a story that makes you want to scream THERAPY!!!!

Sometimes sex scenes in romcoms are a tad too perfect for me. I like em awkward
