After the news of Seal and Heidi Klum’s break up made news, many wondered what went wrong. By all accounts the couple seemed totally in love with each other, and many seemed to take the split personally, wondering, if Seal and Heidi couldn’t make it, maybe it couldn’t be done. Seal added to the confusion by continuing to wear his wedding ring during interviews and speaking lovingly about his soon-to-be ex-wife. Recently,
2012 just began and this year, I’m aiming to try some new things. While I dipped my toe into the online dating world last year, I figured I’d give it another shot this year. While I don’t think I’ll meet my future husband, at the very least I’ll expand my social circle, hopefully have some fun, and have some interesting stories to write about (I DO need to start on
A group of friends and I went out a few weeks ago at an event and had the opportunity to meet a local artist. Now, ladies, when I tell you that this man was FOINE, please understand that I am in no way, shape or form exaggerating the claim. He was tall, polite, beautiful smile, had strong, yet soft hands and insisted on hugging each of us to thank us
A few months ago I met a guy via the social networks that turned out to be quite interesting. On paper he’s a magnificent catch. He’s degreed twice over, has a professional job, is a certified cutie (taller than me), is on his way to law school, and yes…he’s black. While many sisters would be licking their chops and busting out their best tricks to “catch” him, I’m wondering if
You would have had to be living under a rock, or not born, to have missed out on the 1992 classic, Boomerang, starring Eddie Murphy with the likes of Martin Lawrence, David Alan Grier, Robin Givens, Eartha Kitt, John Witherspoon, Grace Jones and (then) lesser knowns Chris Rock and Halle Berry. But just in case you missed it, or even if you have seen the movie a million
Ask any 10 millennial black women to list their favorite movies, and I’d bet at lest half of them will mention Love Jones, the 1997 film about two lovers in Chicago who were deeply drawn to each other despite trying very, very hard to keep things light. If you’re one of the few sad souls who’s never seen the film (where the hell you been?) it stars Larenz Tate and
Tomorrow we’ll return to our regularly scheduled dialogue about love, sex, and relationships…but today, in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King’s birthday I thought we’d take a little time to honor the man who fought for so many of our dreams. While we, young black and brown folks, could not even be HERE without Dr. King’s sacrifices, at times we lose sight of that fact. We get caught up in
 Ashamedly I must admit to half-ass watching Love That Girl this evening. I was in a deep, medicine induced, migraine fighting haze and then I woke up to an interesting scenario playing out on the screen. Tatyana Ali’s character was on a date (I assume it was a blind date) with Omar Gooding. Long story short, he was a bamma. Her best friend, who was watching her from another
Look at Luther stylin’ in his leather blazer! “Never Too Much” is one of my favorite songs of all times, but when I take the time to analyze the lyrics, Luther may be encouraging foolishness. Woke up today, looked at your picture just to get me started I called you up, but you weren’t there and I was broken hearted Hung up the phone, can’t be too late, the boss
The ladies of WYCAB resolved this year to read some books, try out some of the advice given and then share our results. This should be fun…and quite transparent…but then again, I’m the consummate over sharer. Even at my expense, if I can help others, it’s worth it. Somehow. *smile* I actually chose, “He’s Just Not That Into You: The No-Excuses Truth to Understanding Guys”, because frankly, I’on understand em.
