WHY WOMEN VALUE INTIMACY SO MUCH

intimacy

Intimacy means so many different things to so many different people. However to women, I find that we all view it the exact same way. It’s something that we believe should be cherished and kept close, only reserved for the people we love. The people that we find deserving of the intimacy we as women possess. It stands to reason then, why it can be so irritating when the significant others in our lives don’t value or understand something we hold so close. In light of that, keep reading as I explore a few things: Why women value intimacy so much (for my male readers), What intimacy means to us females (for my babes), and how knowledge of both can create magic in your current or next relationship.  Continue Reading

IS IT REALLY POSSIBLE TO BE FRIENDS WITH AN EX?

friends with an ex

When you go through a breakup, it feels like the worst thing that could ever happen. You fight with the idea of really being okay with that person no longer being a part of your life. It’s an all out uphill battle as you picture your life without them and the ways you’ll have to fight to get over them. Sometimes I wonder if because of that we’re so open to the idea of friendships with our exes. I ponder if that’s the reason many of us think it’s possible to be friends with an ex. Continue Reading

WCW: YARA SHAHIDI

On Sunday I woke up to the news that HRH Megan Markle, Duchess of Sussex had been invited to be the guest editor for the September Issue of British Vogue. In this issue, it was her desire to highlight the power of the collective. As women from all walks of life were recognized for their efforts to initiate as representatives of “Forces for Change” in their everyday lives. So when I went through the list of 15 and began to familiarize myself with those I didn’t know — I was pleased, but not shocked to see that Yara Shahidi had made the list. I mean she’s been my WCW for ages, it feels like. So much so that, I might have been more than a little salty if she hadn’t made the list. Continue Reading

BOUNDARIES YOUR MAN’S EX WOMAN SHOULD RESPECT

I can’t believe I have to write a post about this, about boundaries. But y’all we are in an era where the exes are just not getting it and because of that the demise of relationships are happening everywhere. I can’t even begin to explain to you all how many times I have seen an ex step out of her lane. Thinking that it’s appropriate to do certain things or behave a certain way when communicating with her former man, who is now your (my) man. If it’s not a text message saying “wyd” past 7pm, it’s a “Good morning” text before the sun rises. Neither of them being okay to send to a man who is with someone else. Don’t they get it? Their former man is taken. He is with someone else now and y’all are happy. Thriving in a way that doesn’t welcome distraction, disrespect, or other people. Exes included.

So without further ado, lets jump straight into things shall we? Today’s post is for the boundaries your man’s ex woman should respect. Hell needs to respect if we’re getting literal.  Continue Reading
