Power Couple

See the thing I like about this couple is they are a power couple!! He is a strong, independent, go-getter, motivated man and she is a get-what-i-want, I’m-not-playin-wit-you, hard-working woman! Together this equals a power couple…… and you know what people…. the only way you can move up in this world and keep climbing that ladder, is to be with someone who is ready to help you to that next step and work with you to knock down the next barrier!

Here’s my point, when your looking for someone to spend your life with, you need to see if they have the same goals you have…… no scratch that they need to have higher goals than yours!!! That way you know that the sky is the limit! It may be hard to understand or sound like I’m not making any real point when i put it this way…. but let me put it in negative terms:

If your with a guy that doesn’t want to get his ass up and strive for more……

if he’s content in that house, driving that car, having that job forever……

while you are fighting for a promotion when half the office are trying to stab you in the back and working in the mall so you can get that new Mercedes you’ve had you eye on……..

**NEWS FLASH** he is NOT the one for you.

If your a go-getter you need a go-getter………. because your only aspiration should be, to be one half of a power-couple! (I’m not being funny but if your just not that kind of a person and are not on my page….. good luck to ya!…. cause life's a bitch!) Here’s the thing if you have to motivate him all the time…… that’s energy that you could be using to better yourself…… essentially being wasted! (feel me?) Why would you want to have to wake someone up in the morning, when you could have someone wake you up and remind you to keep up the good work?

What i’m saying is that couples like President Obama and First Lady Michelle (what better couple is there) will always be ahead of the game because two heads are better than one! As Neyo says “I’m a movement by myself, but I’m a FORCE when we’re together…. la la la la la……you make me better!” That’s the point!!! In a relationship you have to be with someone that makes you a better person….. a stronger person…. a more successful person!

The lesson in this is, if your in a relationship where a person can not make you better, and I’m not talking material things…… I’m not saying he gotta buy you a car!….. What I’m saying is if when you look at him/her and that person’s actions don’t make you feel motivated or like you can go the extra mile….. then i think you have to ask yourself if you are limiting your growth? and if that is the kind of relationship you want to be in?!

Be a power couple…… cause when your down, at least you know there will be someone to pick you back up!

The Silent Whisper: How "Being Remembered" Shows the Difference Between Compromise and Settling

We talk a lot about “not settling” in modern dating how we shouldn’t accept the bare minimum, how we deserve effort, consistency, and someone choosing us every day. But somewhere along the way, “not settling” started getting confused with “never compromising,” and those two things are not the same. Compromise is collaboration. Settling is self-betrayal. And nothing captures that difference more clearly than the quiet, intimate act of being remembered. The Effort I Mistook for Compatibility For a long time, I was the one who remembered. I'm the woman who'll clock your favorite snack in passing and pick it up "just because." The one who remembers your big meeting, your bad knee, the story about your childhood bedroom. I remember the song you skip every time, the way you side-eye certain foods, the exact way you take your coffee. That's how I love people—through details. And for a long time, I mistook my own effort for "compatibility." I’ve been in situat...

When Your Person is Also Your Friend

Dating today feels like it’s running on fast-forward. Everything is about instant attraction, hookups, and surface-level vibes. Rarely do people pause long enough to ask: But are we friends? See, when someone is your friend to the core, it changes everything. Friends don’t go out of their way to hurt each other. Friends know how to tell the truth...even when it’s uncomfortable  because the bond matters more than ego. That’s what’s missing in a lot of relationships right now: the foundation. If I’m your friend, I should be able to say what’s on my heart without fear that you’ll twist it, dismiss it, or run away. And let’s be real, the group chat knows more than the man in the bed. I laughed when someone told me “girls share everything in the group chat” because listen, if any of my group chats ever got leaked? Wheeeew, pray for us all. 🤭 But here’s the kicker: most of us don’t actually share it all with the man we’re sleeping with. Some women do, sure, but most don’t. We’ll c...

Put Me In

I’m not good at this game called Love. Someone once told me I’m not supposed to be good at it— I’m just supposed to take care of it when I find it or if it finds me. But every time I tried to take care of it, It didn’t take care of me. I’m not good at this game called Love. I’ve trained for years. Had a few different teammates. Revised my playbook. Yet, somehow, I’m still no good at this game. And the closest I came to winning, I realized I was running plays with a teammate Who was passing the ball to every other team in the league. 😉 I left my last team. I walked away, filed the paperwork, Hung up my old jersey for good. Sometimes leaving is the hardest move you’ll ever make. And even though my heart is healing, It still feels like I’m stuck on the sideline. But the game goes on. I built this wall around me, Told myself it was for protection, But after my divorce, I was always looking for the quickest exit— Just waiting for the moment to leave. My therapist recently chuckled and said...
