Getting personal is therapeutic for me. My story will be pure entertainment for some and will inspire others. Sometimes it helps to hear a story you can relate to. To know that you are not the only one going through certain experiences. I’m using this platform to share my story, the lessons I’ve learned and the experiences that have brought me to this humble place. I truly believe my purpose in life is to be a testimony and a light to others. I’m telling this story from the inside looking out and from the outside looking in. I’m not going to use this platform to bash any of my exes or men that I have encountered on my quest for love. Instead, I want to use our experiences as lessons. Teachable moments.
There is an episode of Sex and City where Carrie was asked to teach a class on how to meet men. She didn’t consider herself an expert on meeting men. She had just gotten out of a serious relationship and hadn’t had the best track record with relationship.. However, she had enough experience meeting men that yes, she could teach a class on it. When you want the lessons that go beyond theory, then yes it’s best to go the experienced person.
I may not have a master’s degree nor a PhD in Psychology. However, I got this dating game down to a science. I have had enough experiences having being married, divorced and dating that I know I’m real and I’m going to give it to you straight. I don’t claim to be an expert on dating. I’ve been through way too much to say that I am the expert on any of this. Had I been an expert I doubt it would have changed my experiences or the outcome. I truly believe that “my experiences” are truly mine and were meant for me to go through them. This was how God was shaping me into the woman that stands before you today. I don’t think I would have learned half as much from my successes as I have learned from my failures.
