It would take me all damn day to unpack the wealth of wisdom and revelation packed into...
Road to Separation
Everyone has a story. Recently my husband shared with a semi public group that he cheated on me. This confession came as a big surprise to me. Even though the weeks preceding his disclosure I had been telling him that I was indeed ready to...
Are Divorcees Damaged Goods
We have all met this person, or are related to this person, or have heard of this person… the (wo)man who has been married and divorced four times, can’t manage to stay in a marriage for more than three years, are ready to jump...
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...
Acceptance
This past weekend I went to a close friend’s party. It was an intimate affair with friends and family. Gosh it’s been a while since I went out for an evening of fun and celebrating good times without loud music and drunk people bumping...
My Choice to Break Up with a Married Man
I honestly have to say I never thought I would find myself in a situation like this. I have watched it on TV so many times screaming at the TV at women’s stupidity and how she can’t see that he is never going to leave his wife. Then...

The New Era of Cheating
Is He or She “The One”?
One of the greatest (if not the best) gifts that life offers is love. As people of this day in age, we require and demand so much of it. Rather love of self or others, we continue to seek and search for it at all...
Designer Mates
It’s no secret that we live in a consumer society. Everything is about “customize”, catering to people, convenience. From computer colors, to phone shells, to 950 cable channels with nothing on. Everything. Gone are the days when a company...
All’s Fair in Love and War
History is always told from the perspective of the winner, not as it actually went down. Our history books are all written in such a way that applauds the actions of the ones in control and condemns those of the loser. This is simply one of...
Couple of the Month – October
EDITOR NOTE: When we first received the email from Scott Hayes, we were floored. It’s not common for a man to express his love for the woman for which he is involved. The email was so riveting. Scott expressed extreme love for the woman...
