DISTRACTIONS

One thing I’ve learned in the fight for love is that it requires your attention. Now I know that sounds easy. But with everything going on to distract us, we tend to forget what’s important. Think I’m lying huh? Raise your hands if you text while you’re driving. Oh that didn’t apply to you? Okay. Raise your hands if you text while you are waiting a stop light. That didn’t apply either? How many of you are texting or Facebooking during Sunday service? If that doesn’t hit you, how manyRead More


CHILDHOOD CRUSH OR GROWN WOMAN LUST?

In the 90s RnB singer Nivea had a song with a chorus that goes,”if you mess with my man I’m gonna be the one to give it to ya… so find your own and leave mine alone.” Well this week, it seems as though Tia Mowry channeled her inner Nivea when she took to Twitter stating, “Saying you like married men in interviews in not cute… Just saying.” This tweet sent almost broke the internet while people tried to figure out who Tia, who isn’t known to be messy, could possibly be directingRead More


Angry Black Woman

I’m not an angry black woman. I’m just fine by myself and that’s where you got it twisted.

I’m sure you don’t date us due to the fact thatRead More

But, he suggested we go out for drinks, we did and had a great time. He basically told be he was feeling me, and we’ve been texting everyday since. He and my ex boyfriend from high-school are still really good friends. Is this too close for comfort for he and I to start dating? This was a decade ago,Read More


EMOTIONAL ROLLERCOASTER

R&B songstress Vivian Green sang a song where she described a relationship with a man as an emotional rollercoaster. You see, things would go very well for a certain amount of time, and then here comes the free fall. Unlike the roller coasters at Six Flags, these types of relationships aren’t fun as the dive into a downward spiral. The drop in rollercoaster relationships usually entails cheating, abuse (mental, physical, verbal, etc.) and down right disrespect. Only to be followed by promises to do and be better. Which of course,Read More
