DC Bachelor was started on impulse. One day I came up with the idea and three days later I was a local blogger. I didn’t think it would last as long as it has, or else I would have put more thought into the name.

I’m changing it for a few reasons:

1. I hate DC. There is nothing about the city of DC I like more than other cities I’ve been to.

2. I don’t live in DC. I have never lived there and I don’t ever want to live there. When foreigners ask me where I’m from, I say Maryland, not DC. Technically, I’ve been faking all this time.

3. I don’t use the word ‘bachelor’ in real life. Being single is a lifestyle that changes with time, not a single defining word.

So I decided on a domain that is boring but timeless, that will still work no matter where I end up. (The ‘V’ stands for the first letter of my last name and not the Roman numeral five, though I don’t mind being called Roosh the Fifth.)

The content and layout will remain the same. DC Bachelor will stay open as a permanent archive. If you haven’t already done so, point your RSS reader to feeds.feedburner.com/dcb, which should still work.
