Dumb Broad Confessions

Confessions of a Dumb Broad....Look up, Marlon....Say cheeeese!
Today I just realized that I was a dumb broad........ Don't know how I didn't know before.... I had a lot of the characteristics. See.....I know there are many different types of dumb broads

You got the DB who doesn't know she's one (I guess that's me)......The DB who justifies being one...The DB who does everything in her power not to be one and still ends up one....The DB who has been one for so long that she doesn't even care....there are so many variations and each DB is different. Some are hard-working women who accidentally get caught up in the wrong situation. And some are gold digging heffers with one too many motives.

Then there's the DB who assumes that she's going through the bull crap for a reason. Some divine lesson from GOD. And how can we forget about the DB who is the product of her Mother, her sister, her Aunt or her friend. Her warped perception of "love" almost isn't her fault.

I kind of feel crazy calling myself a dumb broad but I'm sure a crackhead does too the moment s/he knows s/he's one. S/He tries to deny it. But nahhhh....s/he just looks in the mirror and frowns, just like I did this morning...A friend of mine said that I wasn't a dumb broad. Instead she said that I was a woman who did not know her worth....... I really didn't. Now, I am secure with my looks, my personality, my flaws, my past......I'm okay on the inside Or am I? See.....a dumb broad has so many issues on the inside. She knows it too. But she doesn't always know how to deal with it. Poor thing. More than the nicest clothes, success and recognition, the DB wants love. She wants unconditional, there in the morning, kisses at night, braggin' to his boys kind of love. DB thinks it's such a simple thing. It seems simple enough. But the situations she gets herself in makes the simple, the damn near impossible......

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...
