6 Signs You are Dating a FB Who Thinks He’s a Good Guy

I know I'm a little late with this, seeing how we're all waiting on Season 3 of Insecure, however, the subject never dies and I personally feel like we let this one fly over our heads. In season two we saw a little more than we wanted to see with Tasha & Lawrence. At the end of the "never should have started situationship", Tasha tells Lawrence that he is the worst kind of guy: A F***Boy who thinks he's a good guy. What does this mean? We mostly talk about guys in two extremes. Read more [...]

I Think I’ve Found The “Flu Shot” For Heartbreak

There are so many blogs, podcast, songs, and books that talk about love. They give advice from how to fall in love to how to get over a heartbreak. It's not the advice that I have a problem with, it's how it's given, like they have found the cure. None of it works. Let me say it again: NONE OF IT WORKS! If it worked, if there was a "cure" for love, everyone would be drinking the KoolAid. Love to me is like the Flu. You have flu shots for preventative measures and you have medicine for healing.

Love Me Ugly

Everyone has a preference, maybe he likes thick women, maybe she likes men with beards. Maybe she doesn't like short guys, maybe he doesn't like women with short hair. Either way someone will always be beautiful to someone and someone will always be ugly to someone. What you deem ugly doesn't matter, because if a man is ugly to a woman, he can make her laugh and feel safe and he's no longer ugly anymore.

5 Lessons You Learn About Marriage From The Outside Looking In

If you follow me on social media, then you are probably aware that I was just in North Carolina celebrating the 5th Anniversary of some really good friends of mine.

They inspired me to have this conversation. With that being said, you don't have to be married for marriage to teach you some very important lessons. Read more [...]

4 Ways to Love Being Single on February 14th

Here we are 3 days removed from the day the entire world celebrates love. But lets be honest, it is also a day that singles get ostracized, and sometimes not on purpose. Statistics still show a heightened percentage of depression around this time of the year. What makes it even worst, is that we live (even more so today) in a social media centered world. Singles may feel forced to have to validate why they are single, why they aren't sad that they are not getting surprised gifts of candy, teddy Read more [...]

It’s National DJ Day!

They keep us on our feet IF they are good! It's National Disc Jockey Day! According to Wikipedia, a disc jockey (abbreviated D.J., DJ or deejay) is a person who mixes recorded music for an audience; in a club event or rave, this is an audience of dancers.
