About Alexandra
I’m Alexandra, the writer behind Be Lucky in Love—a place for women who like their love with clarity, confidence, and a healthy sense of humor. Because love can be wonderful. It can also make perfectly intelligent women stare at a three-word text message as though it contains classified information.
Around here, we talk about dating, relationships, and breakups without the drama, the gloom, or the suggestion that you simply need to become more patient, more understanding, more mysterious, and somehow less interested—all at the same time. My goal is much simpler: help you see what is actually happening, trust what you already know, and make choices in love that leave your confidence—and your sense of humor—beautifully intact.
The Story Behind Be Lucky in Love
Be Lucky in Love began with a fairly obvious observation: women are given an astonishing amount of advice about relationships, yet somehow we’re still expected to decode mixed signals as though they’re part of an advanced placement course.
He disappears for four days. Maybe he’s overwhelmed.
He only calls at midnight. Maybe he’s afraid of intimacy.
He says he isn’t looking for a relationship. Suddenly everyone becomes very interested in what he might have meant.
Well, ladies, sometimes he meant exactly what he said.
I wanted to create a place where we could talk about love intelligently, candidly, and with a little more charm. No lectures. No gloomy predictions. And no turning every unanswered text into a twelve-step emotional investigation.
Because relationships become much easier to understand when you stop studying every tiny detail and start noticing the things that actually matter: how someone treats you, how you feel around them, whether their actions match their words, and whether the relationship adds something lovely to the life you already have.
That is what Be Lucky in Love is really about: seeing clearly, choosing confidently, and remembering that romance is supposed to enhance your life—not become your second unpaid job.
The Way I See Love
I’m practical about love.
Words are lovely. Consistency is lovelier.
Chemistry matters. So does character.
And if you regularly need a committee meeting, three girlfriends, and a flowchart to figure out where you stand with someone, that is useful information.
I believe in paying attention to actions, keeping your standards, trusting what you see, and resisting the temptation to turn another person’s confusing behavior into a research project about your own worth.
I’ll give you the truth, but never in a way that makes love feel hopeless. There is room here for good judgment and optimism, standards and softness, common sense and romance.
You can want the butterflies. You can also want reliability.
In fact, I highly recommend both.
♥
Warm guidance, sharp insight, and a little playful honesty.
