Navigating a breakup
Chanel found herself a man. I lost mine.
“Lost” might be the wrong word. I could find him if I needed to.
We dated for a month and when things ended, I was disappointed but not entirely surprised. While there wasn’t anything specifically wrong with the relationship (he was/is great), I was still incredibly nervous about actually dating someone. I mean let’s be real; this site is one giant...

Watch Your Step
My mother met her husband via online dating. So three months ago, when I explained to her that I’d be writing a potentially scathing exposé for IKDH on the merits of finding love online, she gently reminded me that though God is loving he is also unpredictable. Who was I to say he wouldn’t turn my research into something more meaningful? I listened, begrudgingly, and filed her advice under...

Thread & Water →
Remember when we said that you should do something in response to the situation in Haiti? One option for your charitable donations is Thread & Water. The project represents a collaborative effort between designers, developers and illustrators in direct response to the crises in Haiti. Every dollar from the shirt(s) that you buy goes towards providing clean water for the Haitian people.

“Your boyfriend can’t wait to see you :)”
Lindsay was referring to Wyatt, a younger guy that I met in church. While I adore him, I do have some doubts about our romantic future. Little man is 7 months old.
Normally, this wouldn’t be worth mentioning. Normally. Dear reader, this is where you begin to understand all the neuroses that make this heart go ‘round. Calling Wyatt my boyfriend...
Dating a Gamer
@ikdh, When on a date/hangtime w/ a girl, how much time is acceptable for a guy to play video games?
This insightful question was brought to you by our dear friend, Chris. He knows how to get a reaction, as proven by the inner monologue that followed: “Oh hellls no. None. Not ever. Not even a little bit.” I stopped just short of adding “FOR SHAME, CHRIS.”
I’m a...

Matching Words With Actions
Without getting into too much detail (different post for a different day), part of our recent radio silence has been due to the three of us trying to muddle through what it means to actually live out the things that we say matter. The reality is that for most of us, it’s much easier to say what we think than it is to execute.
The recent events in Haiti are an example of circumstances where...

Kibitzing in the New Year
Hi guys! It’s been a while!! Have you lost weight? Done something new to your hair? Are those lips chapped due to the weather, or have you taken this site’s manifesto to heart?? Clearly, we have some catching up to do. Pull up a seat, grab yourself a beer an appropriate day-time beverage, and let’s get this party started…
There’s this guy. Actually there’s been two or...
Did You Miss Us?
Because judging by the number of texts, tweets, emails and phone calls we’ve received, some of you have been crying yourself to sleep at night and asking friends what went wrong—why have the IKDH ladies disappeared? Well grab a tissue, get out of fetal position, and tell your mom you’ll call her later. You’re a grown ass man for goodness sake.
Besides…the girls are back!
While we’d love to say...
