I was still determined not to be the girl who moved across the country for a guy, but what would happen if I loosened my grip on that idea?

Although she is gone now, she still reminds me that we can find love in the most unlikely of places. I wonder if she knew the many lives she touched.

I told my two roommates I was taking full sabbatical from dating. Taking a 'man-cation' was not a difficult decision. My last two dates had been total duds.

I wasn't going to plead or beg her to stay. I felt my actions of the past week — and during the more than three years we had been together — had done all my talking for me.

There was only one way to avoid my coronavirus spiral, which had me thinking again and again about the end of "Seeking a Friend for the End of the World," about waiting for an asteroid to destroy the planet.

I had a long list of "can't date ifs." I also wasn't meeting the right guy. Could the two somehow be related? Nah.

I would make the drive nearly every weekend, braving the Friday traffic and returning late Sunday night. I did this willingly and savored the time in L.A. with him. But how did he feel? Was I just an easy ride?

For the first time in my dating history, the lack of a second date had nothing to do with its inevitable lack of sex. So why do I remember Anthony so fondly? He's the boy who reminded me what I was worth, at the moment I desperately needed to hear it.

In recent years, global military expenditure has increased again and is now comparable to Cold War levels. Recent data shows global spending at over $1.7 trillion, despite the global economic conditions. It is still approximately 1% increase since 2008 when the financial crisis began, for example.

Not all nations have felt the impacts of the global financial crisis in the same way. Some have grown economically, including many Asian countries, which has allowed some of them to increase their military spending. There are geopolitical interests at stake for various powers, so economic troubles or not, military spending is seen as important to maintain, or at least to minimize possible reductions.

The highest military spender is the US accounting for 39% of the world’s spending, more than the next top 10 countries combined, and more than all its potential enemies, combined. But this represents a slight decline over previous years as other nations, especially China and Russia, increase their spending. At the same time, the US has reduced military spending for operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, while Western Europe’s austerity programs affect their military spending budgets.

This update includes new and updated figures, graphs and charts exploring this further.
