At Last
Last Thursday I had a dream about my future husband. I literally know everything about how we will meet and details in our relationship. We have at least one mutual friend, which is how we met. Let’s get into it.
I was somewhere, at some...
You’re Beautiful
I would like to discuss the women today. If there is a woman reading this that considers themselves flawless (mind body and spirit), please comment and tell me how you’ve come to be so perfect.
It’s sad to see how we treat each...
Glutton for Punishment
I must be a glutton for punishment.
It seems when it comes to relationships I either enjoy pushing people away or just have no idea what the hell I am doing. I have had a few chances with great guys but either push too hard or don’t push...
A Vision of Love
I am a hopeless romantic. When President and First Lady Obama went to the White House, I was overjoyed. Obviously, for his historic accomplishment, but also for the fact that Black Love would be seen in a positive light. Finally, the world...
Once a Cheater, Not Always Cheater
I had my first boyfriend when I was 16. I lived in an interracial world and had an interracial relationship. Everything was going good and then one day we had the conversation about where we were going sexually. He absolutely thought...
Does Staying for the Children Ever Work?
Many of us have already asked and answered that question. Our children are our most precious gift. We are always working hard to give them more than what we had when we were growing up. For some, that may include a stable, happy, two-parent...

Well, another year has come upon me, and...
True Blessings
Children are the biggest blessings ever to grace the face of the earth. That seems to be a rather big and bold statement but one that I heavily believe, not because I’m a mother, myself, but because the very innocence of a child even causes...
My Bonus Child
“That’s not his son”.
That was the phrase my honey’s sister uttered as he walked through the door of the restaurant. I looked at her and raised my eyebrow wondering why she would lie. I mean this kid sort of looks like him and he...
The Breakup Letter
Dear _____________,
We have been married for many years. I have tried to talk to you on several occasions about not growing and accomplishing anything together. I am so tired of talking because no matter what I say, it doesn’t change anything....
Double Mid-Life Crisis
Here’s my dilemma:
I have been with my husband for 17 years and married for 10 years. We have 6 kids together, but we are apart now. He has been spoiled by his mother, grandmother, aunts etc. and is turning 40 and seems to want to revert...
The List: Practical or Preposterous?
I’m not sure which relationship guru first came up with the idea to create a list, but it caught on like wildfire for women around the globe. Tall, dark, & handsome was probably on the original list. Maybe we got a little crazy with...
Infatuation: Is It Real Or a Fantasy
Infatuation is defined as an intense but short-lived passion or admiration for someone or something.
