Taking Ownership
Good day all… How in 2014 presenting itself for you? So far, so good I hope… I was reminded yesterday that I have to take ownership of my role in my friendships/relationships/acquaintances… I was having a phone conversation with a man who made the statement “you must have a man now because I don’t hear from you unless I call you”… I guess I went into defense mode because I immediately began to verbalize all the reason why I didn’t call based on what I thought HE wanted…. The truth of the matter was I changed. I no longer desired his company because we were headed down two completely different…

What I Deserve More of In 2014…
Pondering over my 2014 goals I’ve decided to share with you the things I deserve more of in 2014. Weekend get-a-ways with and without the lil diva’s… I do enjoy a couple of days to get away from the noise and even when I take my daughters with me they are old enough now to do their own thing for the most part so weekend trips with them are usually peaceful as long as they have their own space. Long French Kisses on a Saturday afternoon. So YES I have been SINGLE but I also have been DATING, which means I have shared a few great kisses… Oh to…

The Effects of an Ex…
I was just sitting here thinking about the first time I heard Ex-Factor by Lauryn Hill… I remember driving up to Richmond, VA to visit her and we discussed this song in great detail. It is so funny how the effects of an Ex can be deeply rooted inside. It is also interesting how some Ex’s effect you more than others. For example when I was around the age of 13-14 I had a “puppy love” relationship with this boy… The most we could do is sit on the porch and talk or sit up on the phone late hours in the night talking. But one thing that stood out…

No Condom – No Cookie
ARCHIEVED POST FROM BLOGGER: Situation: A man text a woman and asked her if they could have sex tonight. The woman responds and says yes and lets the man know that he needs to wear a condom. If no condom then no sex. The woman never hears from the man again…. Okay this is a real topic… Maybe too real for some people but whatever. It’s not that I don’t care about you because I do, hence the topic at hand. I am 37 and single. In my lifetime I have been propositioned by several men to have a sexual encounter. What surprises me is the number of men who…

I don’t want to date a woman who has kids…
ARCHIEVED POST FROM BLOGGER: There are some phrases as a single woman with children that just make my skin crawl. The title of this blog post is on the top of the list. While I know that is a man’s preference and everyone is entitled to their preference… It just baffles me when a man (who has kids) says this… It is my opinion that this statement is one of the most selfish things to say to a single woman raising her child(ren)… Well if you are a man who has kids…. I am sure there are several reasons why a man doesn’t want to date a woman that has…
