“One day he’ll wake up and realize how amazing she really was and when that day comes she will be waking up next to the man who already knew.”

Let the church say “Amen”. Caution- This One Is For The Sistas. In other words I am about to let the Shera, feminist princess, warrior chick out. I am not for the tame of heart.

There are a lot of women who just read the above quote and are thinking to themselves that “this is the story of their lives”. It stroke a chord with me as well. Lets digest this quote. How often do we as women go back and forth with a man that we love in the hopes that he will one day be true, appreciate us, or just get his act together? Whatever the issue may be, we struggle with him in hopes of it coming into fruition but at last, it does not. After realizing that you are at fault as well for wasting so much time and energy on the relationship you are forced to put on your soldier of love armor and proceed into the jungles of the dating world.

How defeating is it that you can give your heart to someone and love them as openly as humanely possible and yet they still choose to dishonor you? I currently am in a loving, healthy relationship but I can count about 3-4 ex boyfriends of mine who if were to give them a chance, would love to take my current honey’s place. All it would take is a simple phone call from me requesting their attention and they would respond.

There is no clear explanation as to why a man does not appreciate the woman he has until he no longer has her. It is as if it does not connect with them until much after. By then it is too late. She is no longer interested or has moved on. Some say this concept is human nature. Now, I am not talking about ALL men because obviously not all men are foolish but in this moment, I am more so speaking to my sista’s so brothas, see you your way to the door. I also am fully aware that women equally damage relationships as well but again, this quote is for my sistas. Thanks.

8 Mistakes Men Make To Ruin A Relationship

With that being said ladies, in reference to my earlier statement about there being at least 3 exes of mine whose mistakes ended our relationships. They would jump at the chance to be with me now if I initiated it. What is it that makes a woman more desirable when she in not thinking of you? Ladies, you have been here. Each of these fellas has tried on at least two different occasions to attempt to win my love back after the break up. Some tried right away and for some it took years for them to fully grasp what I may have meant to them, what we could have had, or the mistakes that they made to contribute to the demise of the relationship.

In fact within the last year of me moving from my hometown to California, at least 4 of my exes have reached out to me in some capacity.
