8B5A7737-938F-4B05-BB20-A5E4240B196B
Dear Dearest,  My daughter is a beautiful, chocolate, 18 year old whose personality just glows. But she recently told me that she never had a boy talk to her and that most boys she knows just don’t like Black girls. I asked her what she meant and she told me most Black boys are not attracted to Black girls unless they ...

Dear Dearest

5C077324-8D79-44C8-94E8-5A57689074C5
Dear Dearest,  My husband can’t respond to me without being verbally abusive. He humiliates me in public and private. He yells at me in front of our children like I am a child. He is so mean. We have children from different partners but he is especially cruel in front of his own children. Most of the time it’s over the simplest ...

Dear Dearest, She Big Mad. What kind of ratchetness?

Dear Dearest,  My man is hard working and loves his kids more than anything on the planet but he is a complete narcissist and has too many children (over 6). He makes posts on social media, which includes everything but me. He will post our house, with him and his kids, our car with him and his kids, even our dinn...

My husband is throwing a temper tantrum because I had dinner with my ex who is leaving for prison for the remainder of his life. I just wanted to apologize for any hurt he caused me and say goodbye. Boy boo, I needed that closure. Cry about it then. #ghettoqueen Dear Ghetto Queen,  Sis, what in the Ham Sam, marriage buffoonery you got going on...

Insurance Got Me In My Feelings - Dear Dearest,

DD2B3FBC-EE5C-4786-98DD-806B1B19F224
Dear Dearest,  My family has always been the type to shy away from the conversation of death. But as our parents became older and the passing of our beloved mother, thoughts of insurance crossed my mind. Yet as a single father of 3 I never followed up with it. My brother and sister-in-law approached me about a pol...

Dear Dearest, - “Trapped In A 14 Year Gap”

326125B5-2D4A-4485-8515-A6F6BB0EAE2D
Dear Dearest,  On my 42nd birthday, I realized I wanted to start dating again. My 22 year old son was on his own and as a school bus driver, I was not putting time into myself like I should. So, me and the girls got dolled up and hit the club scene. It had been almost 20 years for me. That’s where I met an in...

Dear Dearest,  My financial situation is in shambles. I have a 12 year old daughter and I was just laid off from a job in Florence, SC. She is ready to go back to school but other than that every thing is falling apart. I don’t even know how I’m going to buy food. My car was reprocessed and I am about to get evicted from my apar...

August 6, 2019 Dear Dearest,  Toni Morrison died today.  “Sorry” Dear “Sorry”,  What a horrible thing for you to say.  With two mass shooting, too many bodies to lay. She’s not dead cause words never die. I’m truly messed up, but have no tears to cry. I read all her books, even the ones I didn’t get. I tried to be like her ...

​August 5, 2019 Dear Dearest,  I am the survivor of a physically abusive relationship from my husband who I haven’t seen in 4 years. I was a coward and I exposed my children, who were 10 and 8 at the time to their father physically violating me, breaking my nose, damaging my vison among other things. I never ...

August 4, 2019 Dear Dearest,   I have been with the same individual for 3 years. We started doing business together until we realized we had great chemistry. We had to immediately “x” the business relationship because it caused too much conflict with the new way that we looked at each other. We have even been disgraceful, f...
