Blacks and their relationships

Black people and their relationships is something most people (we bloggers included) love to write about. And I am guilty as charged, doing it in this post too. All this hit me when I was reviewing my interracial posts and looking at them, there is always a mention of black this … black that. So I got to thinking, why does this happen?

I have seen women calling their husbands’ names in front of the kids, calling them good for nothing, lazy and useless. The humiliation, the being fired from the marital bed – as if being fired from the job wasn’t enough

Is sleeping apart the key to a happy marriage?

A woman faced jail after stabbing and beating her husband to death. In Britain, one in four couples resort to separate beds. Reason? SNORING partners

The above are tragic-comic glimpses into a serious but rarely discussed issue for couples – sleep incompatibilities. My dude wakes me up more than six times a night because he keeps snoring and fidgeting. Wonder what he does in his dreams. Well, I am not alone. Both men and women suffer just like me.

So to forgive is divine. Why is it so hard then?

“Ultimately, what inspires us to forgive is more often selfishness than anything else. It hurts too much to stay angry and it becomes self-destructive to hold back forgiveness. We forgive for the sake of love; we just sometimes get stuck on the way there.” - Dr. Laura Berman, Berman Center,... full story
