He Says, She Says : It Just Doesn't Work * A Poem*


She Says:
He used to be so romantic, he would give me candle light dinners
I was amused by his antics, I thought I found a winner.
Now all he does is park his ass on the couch
and when I ask him what's wrong he says he doesnt know what I'm talking about.

He doesnt talk to me, he doesnt take me out
then he wants to sleep with me when he retires from his couch
he's hardly ever home and when he is here?
he makes me feel like I forced him to be, and it just isn't fair.

He Says:
She used to laugh at all my silly jokes
then she brought all of our problems to her girlfriends and folks.
now feel like a stranger in my own house
so I take my place quietly on the living room couch.

I try to step away from my man made island
but when I try to sleep with her, she makes me feel guilty for trying
she says that the way I treat her is so unfair
but if she doesnt want me with her, then why am I here?

She Says:
I used to try talk to him, but he didn't want to listen
I'm giving up on us, because I've grown too tired of wishing
If he really does love me, he won't let me go
So I'm going to leave him, because that's the only way I'll know.

He Says:
I want to tell her how I feel, but I don't know what to say
Each time I try to talk to her, she takes everything the wrong way
I tried to give her what she wanted. I thought what she wanted was me.
But she said she wants to go, and I love her... so I'll set her free.

The Punisher: Relationship Prejudice

When started dating after separation, I did it in phases. The first phase was catch up. I wanted to catch up with every man I had a spark with to explore where it would have went had I not gotten married. Once I realized that these "what if's" were really "don't bother's" I moved on to try to find "the one." After several failed attempts and false starts with "the one" I began making rules. I didn't always know what I liked but I was certain after several failed relationships of what I didnt. However, now that I look back, I realize that plenty of the red flags that made me run were almost always a shared similarity with my ex. If a man said he was interested in anything my ex was interested in, I began to feel uneasy and delve deeper for more "flags". I'll even admit that if a man were from the same country or continent as my ex, I would get turned off. I now know that I was suffering from PTRD (Post Traumatic Re...

The Real Thing *Relationships/Dating*

I love Marvin Gaye. I love how he croons along with Tammi Terrell about having the "Real Thing". If you have followed my blog over the years, you have seen me get separated, divorced, and hit the dating scene. Its been a long road. There was a time that I was dating just to get my feet wet. I just wanted to get into the habit of conversing and entertaining men in a way that I hadn't due to the confines of marriage. I just wanted to be single again. Eventually I came to want more. I wanted to have something...real. I am not a traditional woman. If I didn't have children I would likely never be married and I would be totally fine with living in a separate home from my significant other and connecting when we wanted to connect and maintaining space all other times. However, I have children...and my lifestyle preferences are not a priority. I am more interested in setting an example and foundation for my girls. So here I am, dating with a purpose. I have been on POF,...

The Secret Society Of Trump Supporters

I've heard at least a dozen people proclaim their disgust with the success of Donald Trumps Presidential campaign. I'm lying, it's been everywhere. On social media, articles, and conversation you hear plenty people express their disdain at the mere thought of Trump assuming office. Then there are the supporters. There are the people who openly express their support of Trump winning the White House. As time goes on, Trump's position is yet more secured and his supporters are also more secure in showing just how much they love him. It seems now that victory is within their grasp, they can more openly say : I helped make this happen. Those are the cowards. They won't openly defend their candidate but they quietly follow and support him. Those are the people who will say: "well there are some people who support Trump because he says what others won't say." Those people, are talking about themselves. They are far too timid to say what Trump says and he ha...
