Let’s keep it real. I’m a decent looking kid. I’m not your average woman. I am not a size 8 and do not aspire to be. I like artsy things and unconventional places. I keep weave hair in the trunk of my car. My shoe game is pretty impressive. I’m definitely an original by any standard, yet I find it difficult to find someone that is even down for a
There’s something about Valentine’s Day that brings out the worst in people. Judging by my Facebook news feed yesterday, there are a lot of bitter broads out there, and quite honestly, I’m sick of it. They’re starting to bring me down. I mean, I get it. A lot of my sistern have been done dirty in the love game. They’ve given their all to unworthy dudes. They’ve put up with
Music is one of the most important parts of our lives. Whether we like it or not, when we deal with issues of the heart, we often search for the perfect song to fit our mood. Whether we’re happily single, blissfully boo’d up, or single and ready to mingle (no Bitter Betty’s allowed…today lol), I’ve got a song for you. Check it: Here are a few songs to add to
As of late, it seems like everyone’s an expert on how everyone else should be living. Prime example ^^^^… Yes, I’m going there today. I have noticed more and more in my social networking exploration the cropping up of more and more self-appointed “relationship experts”, all focused on one specific demographic: The confused, misguided women folk that walk the earth in a daze, looking for that one man that holds
I can’t believe that we have entered the 2nd month of 2012 already. 2011 was a pretty rough look for ya gyrl, but I’m happy to say…I made it! A part of “making it” was vowing to make changes that would find me living the best life meant for me. It took a lot of thought, a lot of pain, a lot of tears and a lot of lessons learned
CRAZY…. One of the most commonly used adjectives I hear men use to describe women. And these muthasuckas love throwing it out there at any opportunity. “Man, I dated this chick for 4 1/2 years and decided that I didn’t wanna be there anymore. I moved in the middle of the night while she was out of town with her girls and she keyed my car. She CRAZY!” “I met
Last year I felt completely stuck. I was in a job that I hated, I dreamed about writing full-time but couldn’t figure out how, and I just felt like my life was moving at a snail’s pace. I was degreed, in debt, and I felt like I was beginning to feel like a failure, despite all that I had accomplished to that point. It didn’t matter, I felt stuck. Although
I was listening to a popular radio show the other day and the idea following the popular movie “Hall Pass” came into discussion. Men and women were being polled to determine if they would give their significant other a “pass” to step out of the relationship, share an evening (sexual experience) with someone ELSE and then fall back in line. The very idea is absolutely ludicrous to me, as it
Times are tough, but dating in a down economy can been even tougher. Although money is tight these days, if a man manages to plan a creative, fun, and cheap date…I’m good. And as a matter of fact, I prefer it! Dinner and a movie is not only costly, but it can be a bit boring and predictable. So, fellas…why not trying something new?
