Beautiful mistake

The best dating mistake I’ve ever made was in high school. Actually, I don’t know if you can call it a mistake as much as a personality flaw, because that’s just who I was. I was in a relationship with a guy that lasted just short of a year, although I could have spared myself a lot of pain if I had ended it earlier.

I was young, and I was clingy.

Not to say the young man didn’t also contribute to the dysfunction of our relationship, but looking back at the way I behaved, I’ve learned one of the greatest dating lessons that has impacted every single relationship I’ve had since then: Have your own life. Have your own friends, activities, and plans for the weekend. Your life is happening with or without that special person, but if they choose to come along for the ride, it’s a bonus.

Do you have any “beautiful disaster”-type relationships in which you learned something that has helped you to become a better dater? Maybe even breakups you’re glad happened because of how much you learned from them?

How have dating mistakes that you’ve made caused you to rethink how you view or act in relationships? Is there any advice you learned the hard way you think others should know?

Good Morning Yawls

Bella I too learned a long time ago that it was good to maintain your own life, even when in a relationship.

I’m currently learning another lesson right now but I’m not sure what it is yet. At this critical point in time, I’m trying not to adopt the mentality that you can’t trust anybody and that folks can’t change. I’m sure the lesson will reveal itself in hindsight.

Good Morning I’ve learned not to drink too much around someone you really, really like. It makes you vulnerable, tipsy, and you give it up too quick. Then you’re mad cause when he was bragging about his “middle man” it turned out to be a Dr Thumb have a nice day everybody.

Wow the ajc is putting mug shots of animals on the front page now.

The biggest lesson I learned is to be honest and direct with how I feel. Holding it inside or agreeing with something just for the sake of being agreeable does not work and it’s unfair to myself. So now I’m a lot more vocal with my opinions and what I want.

Okay, I know I’m going to get hit by this but why do you seem so…what’s the word I’m looking for? Just Ms It…all the time, on every subject, in every way? Not quite self righteous but something I can’t quite put my finger on. I don’t know why your posts sometimes irke me. Sorry, nothing against you personally but sometimes you seem to go on and on and on and on…every subject, all matters, every issue. Sometimes it’s just too much. Sometimes I wish you’d got back to blythering about Mase.

Morning Everybody!! Happy Hump Day!

On topic: I think the hardest lesson I learned was to SPEAK UP in a relationship, whether it be about something you want, how you feel, whatever. I lost out on a good relationship because I simply didnt want to put myself out there and say how I really felt. I was too concerned about other stuff that in the long run didnt matter. I have always been proud of my never-let’em-see-you-sweat attitude about things but on that one, I should have put it all out there. I had nothing to lose but everything to gain!

Hey SlimOne glad you coming around chica!

Good morning everyone. What’s up Prize. Girl you a hot mess with all these name changes..LOL. One of the more important lessons I’ve learned over the years is not to be clingy and have your own life. Never let a man know you’re sitting at home pining for him because you have absolutely nothing to do but be with him. He’ll walk over you each and every time.

Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning? It is waay too early for mudslinging….

SexyLeggs, u are a beautiful woman inside and out, i can tell. If u luv somebody, let them know.That pride thing u talking about does not make sense and it only hurts u. But ofcourse if the man is a Dog, then u have to walk away. But a good man apreciates a woman who expresses her luv for Him.I think. So tell him, u want him home with u or u want to gout with him. He will understand, if he truly luvs u.If he consistently gives u excuses,RED FLAG!

Hi, everyone!

@I Sing Soprano: my friend just had this experience this weekend! She got sloshed, had to have her man friend take her home and was really embarrassed about the whole thing, because usually she’s really in control of herself.

Good Morning Folks:

The mistake that taught me the most was, control the flow of information on both sides. Everyone has heard the saying to keep people out of your business, but its not always as easy as it sounds. I lost a good one over mutual friends, in all the time I was with the lady, every major situation had a little interjection from some “friend”, words get changed, or meanings get crossed. Them buddies can fugg up a good thing.

Morning fellow Bloggers!

Prize..I tell you Slim…you got MPD…yet another personality is coming out. Hell…you got more than me! LOL D*amn you are going through it right now huh girl? I was there about 3 and a half months ago. But it’s cool now. It hurt at first..now I wouldn’t care if he got hit by a bus…not that I wishing it on him. I just would not care.

Tiff I like Kelly Clarkson too..I’m really feeling her song “Never Again”! She let ole dude know how she really felt!

I Sing Soprano D8mn..I feel bad for ya girlie! But he thought he was the man huh? LMAO! Classic!

Raqi I think most of the world’s population are Beautiful Mistakes! LOL

I ain’t trying to be funny who got your knickers in a bunch this early in the morning?

On Topic: my problem is I can’t give 50% of me. I am an all or nothing type person. So if I love you then you are in my heart and i would do almost anything for you. Butonce you are out…like a vault…you can NOT get back in. My late grandpa always told me to not love anyone 100%. But that is easier said than done. When I act mean and treat a guy like crap..they keep coming back like a stray dog once you feed them. But be nice…be the woman the “claim” they want. They disappear faster than Indian Remi hair for $20 a pack at a swap meet! So I have learned not to be the nice Staceye…but the mean Staceye.

By Jewel

August 22, 2007 10:53 AM | Link to this

Good morning Everyone!

Things I have learned in life, love and relationships…

As Maya Angelou said, “When people tell you who they are, believe them.”

Live your life with no regrets. The opportunity is now. If you love someone, tell him or her today because tomorrow is not promised to you.

Do not feel bad if after you tell them “I love you” they do not reciprocate the sentiment. You haven’t done anything wrong if it was spoken from an honest heart.

Follow your instincts.

Do not make excuses for bad behavior.

Everyone is not capable of receiving your love and kindness. You cannot control a person’s response to you…never try to make him or her love you. Either they do or they don’t. And, since love is an action word, their actions will tell.

Make sure you have a life outside of the relationship. Never keep your life on pause for someone. “Me time” is required for rejuvenation and to be capable of giving more of yourself.

Sacrifice is not an option if you have a solid relationship; it is a pleasure.

Know who you are and what is required to make you happy. You will determine that you can be happy with or without a mate AND you will have more to give when the right person comes along.

Relationships are not a completion of me, but rather a compliment to who I am and who I am becoming.

Enough for now. Don’t want to have to break Musing or GaMan’s fingers for writing me a citation. LOL!

Have a Powerful, Productive, Prosperous and Positive Day!!!

Jake I think Sexione went into hiding after Truth got on her case about selling Old Puddy at new puddy prices and of course the low turn-out blog meet-n-greet.

I think Randyt was cleaning out one of his closets and got trapped by an avalanche of t-shirts. We haven’t heard from him in a while. It might have been too dangerous to send anyone in to get him.

If it was a bad situation, i’m happy that they’ve resolved it but I can’t bake a cake to celebrate increasing the divorce rate.

You don’t see the happiness for Poo Bah? On one hand it is the demise of a family..however..it’s not prolonged agony of unhappiness. Some people stay together for the wrong reasons….fear of being alone…for the kids…fear of starting over. But if you are smart enought to know when to call it quits before you die old and miserable…then you should be happy.

It’s funny you mention the glad someone is dead thing. I would never be glad someone is dead. However…if they had hurt me, I would go to the funeral just to make sure it was really them. Not to mention I’d be thanking the Lord that it had nothing to do with me. I know…it’s sadistic. is the Dr. in? I’m coming to lay on your couch!

I ain’t I have to agree w/ Jewel. It’s not about coming to Raqi’s defense. She defends herself just fine. And I certainly can’t say that I always agree w/ what she says. But, attacking her isn’t going to change who she is or what she decides to share on the blog. If you don’t like her posts, ignore them. There are plenty of bloggers whose posts I routinely ignore, and who, I’m sure routinely ignore mine. No big deal. Like I said yesterday, it takes too much energy to stay mad at someone. Keep it moving…

Staceye Poo Bah’s happiness is not mines to see but I do know what he think has just ended is actually the beginning and whatever emotions or feelings that were not resolved in his marriage will most definitely be there in his divorce. Divorce ain’t easy, it may seem like the fix but it could be the root of future problems.

SlimOne about celebrating divorce, its not so much about celebrating the divorce as it is about knowing you are doing the right thing by not staying in a bad relationship. For some though, there is a need to celebrate. If your marriage was emotionally, physically, psychologically draining then of course you would celebrate. For me (emphasis on me), its knowing that my child will no longer have a look of panic on his lil face when his father and I are closer than two feet. Its also knowing that I dont have to worry about not arguing in front of him or worrying about he will react. But also b/c I honestly felt like my marriage was put together by me and my husband, we didnt seek God in it. So now I look forward to celebrating my new life and all that it has to offer as long as I seek God in everything I do.

Just my .02…..

Mo Yes, I agree with all you said. I also would not expect anyone to stay in an unhealthy situation. I was only saying it feels kind of funny to actually celebrate divorce, not necessarily a stab at the reasons why. I’m glad for anyone who can get out of a bad situation but i was indirectly speaking in terms of the state of marriage in our society. Thats all. If you’re seeking God’s guidance then there’s nothing anyone else can say. No judgement here cuz Slim shole ain’t no saint. lol

SexyLeggs I was at the meet and greet. Although it was only 5 of us..i had a nice time meeting those that I did meet and getting free drinks from dudes who came over to the bar. You know how we NY’ers do it girl….with my tough veneer! HiJake & For Real!

Raqi we all make mistakes. So don’t let anyone get to you mama. You owed up to it like a woman. So it’s done.

For Real sometimes the fact that two people who should not be married is the root of the problem. Just love someone is not enough. When you realize it…then you cut your losses. Poo Bah what is your take on this, since this is based on you?

Mo, Staceye, SexyLeggs,& For Real
I do not have a party planned, although I may grab a beverage with buddy tonight. For me it is a relief that I can finally move on with my life. I see both sides, I agree with For Real that you don’t celebrate then end of what was once the most important relationship I had.
Any celebration I have is about starting a new chapter in life. I hold no bitterness to the former Mrs. Poo Bah, I will focus on me and enjoy what I have.
With that being said, I think I’ll take a looooooonnnnngggg lunch and will catch up with everyone later this week.

Mr. Obama: Good Morning general. Actually it’s my mistress…uh…Mrs. Raqi that would like to have a word with you. Here you go sweety the floor is yours.

Mistress Raqi: After the recent events that have taken place, Barak…I mean Mr. Obama and I have I needed to publicly make the following apology.

“I apologize that I have been fortunate enough to experience life and a lot of its hills and valleys. I apologize that I would rather make fun of my bad experiences and laugh about them rather than hate myself, God and everyone else for the mistakes I made. I apologize that I don’t mind telling others about the crap I allowed myself to get into. I apologize that I married a man that don’t mind laughing with me about my past and the things that I experience now. I apologize that I choose to make the best of things and be happy. And last but not least I apologize for being me.”

Now I bow my head and tuck my tail and go to lunch. I’m sorry. NOT.

I hate that it ended the way it did, but I learned a lot about myself and I got a beautiful baby out of it. And truth be told, I couldnt have chosen a better man to be my baby daddy! LOL But WE couldnt make it, too many red flags that we missed that were issues for us. Our season came and went so its time to move on.

August 22, 2007 12:56 PM | Link to this

Staceye I agree wholeheartedly that staying together would have been wrong for me. I am in an easier position than others because we did not have children so I could selfishly think only of me. I hated making the decision to end the marriage based on the fact I felt I did not have a true partner. With the struggle I had before I was ready to finally go through with it, factoring in kids would have more than doubled the process.
I think the deciding factor to me was I saw older couples still together that seemed miserable, and I did not want to be in that situation. I did factor in her feelings, and weighed them against my needs, and what I predicted my best chance for happiness would be. That’s the best part, because I weighed it so heavily, I beleive I will always be happy with my decision.
The other side is that now that the papers are signed, I can let go of any bitterness and hopefully remember the good times we had.

Thanks Everyone!

We were at the resort in our room getting ready to meet our other friends for dinner/partying. He started walking around the room, pacing, and I was on the bed looking at restaurants and such…He started talking and I didn’t even look up from the magazine. He stared talking about how much I meant to him, how I changed his life, how I’ve stood by him,etc. The sweetest thing he said was that I trusted him enough to support him while he became a better person (and he didn’t know anyone else like me who would do that)… by this time I was looking up and he had the ring in his hand. He got on his knees (in the bed) and asked me if I would do the honor of spending the rest of my life with him. Of course tears were strolling down my face by this time and he was all choked up….but he proudly reminds me that he didn’t cry though!

Lady Dark w/Dimples I knew that was gonna happen. Congrats! But I must warn you…here comes GA Man with my citation* but I am willing to pay it!

Marriage is not a word. It’s a sentence (a life sentence).

2. Marriage is love. Love is blind. Therefore marriage is an institution for the blind 3. Marriage is an institution in which a man loses his Bachelor's Degree and the woman gets her masters. 4. Marriage is a three ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring and suffering. 5. Married life is full of excitement and frustration: In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens. In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens. In the third year, they both speak and the NEIGHBOURS listen. 6. Getting married is very much like going to a restaurant with

friends. You order what you want, and when you see what the other person has, you wish you had ordered that instead.

7. Son: How much does it cost to get married, Dad? Father: I don't know son, I'm still paying for it. 8. Son: Is it true Dad? I heard that in ancient China, a man doesn't know his wife until he marries her. Father: That happens everywhere, son, EVERYWHERE! 9. Love is one long sweet dream, and marriage is the alarm clock. 10. They say that when a man holds a woman's hand before marriage, it is love; after marriage it is self-defense. 11. When a newly married man looks happy, we know why. But when a 10-year married man looks happy, we wonder why. 12. Eighty percent of married man cheats in America, the rest cheat in Europe. 13. After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin. They just can't face each other, but still they stay together. 14. Before marriage, a man 'yearns' for the woman he loves. After the marriage the "Y" becomes silent. 15. it's not true that married men live longer than single men, it only seems longer. 16. When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of one thing - either the car is new or the wife is.

Nah..but really though..that was a sweet proposal story…one to tel the kids & grandkids. *”Daddy tried to propose in spanish since we were in Mexico but what he really said was will you spank my monkey?” LOL

Cinderella D@mn girl…you let Lady Dark know straight up that you are hating you now! LOL

Staceye, I thought it was yet had to ask. Didn’t think you were that jaded. Girl, I was going to call TheTruth or ForReal and have him lay hands on you! It’s all good now!

Actually, Raqi, I think he/she has paid you a compliment…I do not watch her show much, but that sounds like Oprah and she makes what, billions of dollars doing it? Taking the bad and the ugly and choosing to see the good AND learn a lesson or two so that you have the ability too appreciate life. Hmmmph. But really, this is old. It’s best to leave some people in their own misery…

ForReal, HotSauce never said she was a police officer. Just said she works in law enforcement. Don’t assume anything. Let her come out flat and tell you she’s an officer. Shyt, I have special handcuffs too…LOL

I aint

You spoiling the day, I’m not sure who you are behind the bullshyt moniker, but newbie or not, I sure am tired of your azz today. Also, you don’t get a special prize cause youare an original blogger. As my old coach would say, “we’re happy to have you, but we sure as hellz don’t need you” Now, with that said, I won’t say your post have no merit.

@Raqi, there are times you do come off arrogant. The confidence that life has given you can rub like conceit; but in your defense, you have admitted your questinable acts, and you were right, you didn’t say anything today, somebody is just ready to bytch today, whoever she is…lol.

Now ya’ll post about me since I jumped in the middle…hehehe!!!

Mo You are right, no directions needed.

HotSauce no offense to you, just realized you never said you well an officer so in essence ForReal has a chance (if you want him).

Late Lunchtime Observations:

  • Hot Wings should not be eaten at the bus stop…Where are you gonna wash your hands?

  • If you can’t cross the street before the light changes, don’t look at me and hold your hands up, you should probably be running by now.

  • Why the hellz would I buy a “pizza” from Subway???

  • When are folks just gonna wear their pants around their ankles??? If I’m gonna make a fashion statement, I’m gonna make a big one.

    Raqi and Ain’t I have a way to settle your dispute. How about each of you write a post about the freakest thing you all have done. BUT, you cannot use a vowel in writing your post. The Blog will decide which tell is the freakest.

    Sexyleggs For Real has enough Black Cake for the both of yall.

    NC Since 2D’s is off the market now you can have her portion of Black Cake.
