Women all around the world have toyed with this question at one point or another in their lives.  Our biggest flaw, perhaps, is that we toy with this question for far too long!  Yes, I too am guilty of procrastinating a break up or two.  “He’s not that bad all the time” or “I’m too comfortable”, are usually my most common road blocks.  And I know that I’m not alone.
So, Rule Number 1 girls, if you’re thinking about breaking up with him, it’s because you want to.

Yes, breaking up is hard to do, but have you ever stayed with somebody …read more

We have all been called “crazy” by boyfriends, family, or friends at some point in our emotion-filled lives.  Sometimes it is with love and sometimes it is with anger, but it references an aspect of our personalities that is special and lovable.  I just conducted an interview with the insightful self-proclaimed “Crazy Girl” Kaneisha Grayson who teaches women how to be strong and love themselves for being just a little bit crazy!  She started the relationship blog CrazyGirl Nation to share advice about careers, happiness, and dating.  I wanted to find out how she gets comfortable writing about such private …read more

Many women who find themselves consistently in situations where they are hurt by insensitive, manipulative, or deceitful men wonder what they are doing wrong.  They question how they could find themselves over and over again in the exact same situation at the end of a failed relationship with a guy who they probably should never have given a chance in the first place.  Are these women doomed to date terrible men for the rest of their lives?

This is a dangerous pattern for women to get in because with each failed relationship their confidence falls a little lower.  They think that …read more

I was talking with daughter about men and dating recently. She has a new boyfriend and so far he’s very different from her other boyfriends. He takes her places, he pays for things, he asks her questions about herself, really tries to get to know her. He works and goes to school. He goes home at a sensible hour when he’s got an early class. He’s responsible. Last night he came over and sat on the patio with her and when he left, she said, “I think I’m dating a man.”  I think she’s right.

When is he going to propose?  Are you guys fighting?  Shouldn’t you be mad about that?  I think that’s something to worry about, don’t you?
Everyone has those friends and family members who want to show that they care by inquiring into every little detail about your relationship and offering their personal opinion about every response.  They want to know everything!  Older siblings, younger siblings, parents, ex-boyfriends, best friends, co-workers, lots of people seem to feel comfortable offering their opinion about your relationship when you didn’t really ask for it.  They are usually just trying to “watch out for you”, but …read more

This is a common relationship story that happens often to both men and women.  You find yourself in a relationship that you think is blissfully perfect.  You dream of a happy future with a big house, babies, and a white picket fence.  You imagine your life together as a perfect happily ever after.  And then you get dumped.
This abrupt and unexpected type of break-up can be the most emotionally crushing, but surprisingly with some time and mental control, can be one of the easiest to get over.  If you have just suffered from this experience, here are the steps to …read more

How to keep a relationship healthy, happy, and hot
In even the best marriages and relationships, there are days when you look at your partner and stifle the urge to stab him with your salad fork. But these bursts of acute anger are rarely what torpedo a marriage; instead it is usually chronic neglect that eats away at the fabric of a relationship. The old saw about familiarity breeding contempt may be overstating the case. Most of the time, rather than contempt, familiarity breeds flashes of bemused resignation or profound, soul-sucking boredom. …read more

In honor of this season’s Bloggy Giveaways I’m giving away my copy of Mama Gena’s Owner’s and Operator’s Guide to Men.

I went to this Life Coach Shrink in Atlanta to learn about Tapping to get rid of some of my hang-ups about sex and money and marriage (before my Law of Attraction mentor Jeff Howard told me to just go online and learn about it for FREE) and paid $150. One of the things I walked away with was a recommendation for THIS book. When I was cleaning out my office I found it and thought, for $150 I should …read more

Thanks to That Girl for guest posting on Blog Fabulous today. That Girl lives in Louisiana and mothers two sons and a husband. She writes Hey You! Remember Me? where she takes us down memory lane with recollections about teenage life in the ’90s. Read her latest post Wannabe. I would post her beautiful photo, but she’s incognito due to the drug use and teen sex that comes up in bloggy memoir.

A couple of years ago my husband and I went through a pretty rocky spell. By rocky, I mean that I was constantly hurt and wondering “Who is …read more
