Loving this life

I go to work to pay for vacations and earn time off to take said vacations. I'm too busy living an action packed, comedic, real life love story, to be obsessed over what happens on the internet. That is all.

I never understood the advice that you should be happy single before you seek out a relationship. If I had the potential to be *that* happy being single then what would be the point in romantic partnership?

Nobody says “you should be happy being childless before you have a child”…Why do they use that line of logic for dating and marriage? Idk

[vierge-noire]

I really think it’s a toned down (or even camouflaged) extension of the whole “if you seem too eager you lose” thing. 

Which is why the dating “game” sucks a lot of the time. People are more conditioned to see relationships and dating as a power struggle rather than the manifestation of a genuine desire to be with/get to know someone.

[danielle-mertina]

I also think it’s a gendered thing because when women actively pursue romance they’re viewed as desperate, lacking in self-esteem and etc. But being active in dating is pretty normalized for men.

[tnoeisboss]

It just means you should be content with YOU, before you enter into a relationship. It’s the extension of, if you don’t love yourself, how can you love someone else.

[danielle-mertina]

I think if that’s what was meant that would have been what was said. But in any case, while I definitely think it’s ideal to be 100% content with yourself and your life and all of that prior to getting into a relationship…I don’t think that’s a requirement. 

Most of us are imperfect, a lot of us struggle with issues from prior experiences or familial issues and I think that love–real and healthy love–can actually be a salve for a lot of those problems. You don’t need to have it all together to be ready to enter into a relationship. In my opinion & personal experience. 

[tnoeisboss]

It's definitely not a requirement. However, when I finally did get to that point in my life, that's when I met my husband. I worked out all my past issues from relationships and anything else. Got to a point where I was so focused on me and just in love with myself. So when our relationship started I had no baggage. Granted I wouldn't say I had it ALL together, but the real and healthy love came from within first. So based on my experience, I would have to say that was the way to go. I loved myself before I truly loved someone else, or allowed them to love me.

Black Excellence strikes again.

Gabrielle Union just called out Michael Keaton’s complete non-apology for the “Hidden Fences” flub at the Golden Globes

Gabrielle Union isn’t about to sit down and let Hollywood’s elite disrespect Black excellence. The star delivered an important message during her Tuesday appearance on The View, calling out Michael Keaton for what she characterized as a “non-apology” after he lumped Black-cast films Hidden Figures and Fences together into one movie.

SLAYYY GABBY

[pettywap]

whoopy always saying something dumb

[caliphorniaqueen]

yes. Jenna’s apology did seem genuine but for Michael Keaton, an actor, to do it on the main stage while announcing a nominee for the damn movie was just disrespectful especially since he didn’t even apologize later.
