While some complain about this absence, many are embracing this time to mingle, find themselves, and just have fun!!  A good friend of mine says she loves being single, because she has options. Sorry men, women are becoming the players! Having options and not being tied down is something that women are now embracing. Since we out number you anyway in college,…

Praise Him this New Year!!

Pinks
Happy New Year!  As we come into the new year of 2011, it is important to give thanks to God for allowing us to see another year.“And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father”  Colossians 3:17  NLT         Many times we forget that God has brought us through a year of ups and downs.  The New Year symbolizes a new beginning for many people.  People make resolutions to save more money, lose weight, exercise more, or simply break old habits.  Let us not forget to make the resolution to become closer with God.  Take time out of your busy schedule to attend church, read the Bible, and/or engage in praise and worship.  People turn to God…

Life as the RB: Wisdom, Courage and the Drive to Move Forward

Plums
With the New Year only days in, it's imperative that I start the articles on the Recovering Bitch. I'm talking about all of the people who don't want to bring that unnecessary, unwanted, drama into the New Year with them. The RB focuses on the self. They must work on ways to make themselves feel wanted and appreciated. This has to be accomplished before they can give themselves to anybody else.“Out with the old and in with the New.” People love to use this slogan when referring to the desire to move past unhappy relationships. This slogan is often heard at the beginning of the year. As a way to tell yourself "Its over!" But is it really? We have learned some of the qualities of a SB and can point…

SBS: A guide to a healthier mind (Finale)

Plums
When a person is dealing with Stupid Bitch Syndrome, they tend to lose sight of reality. The reality that is needed in order to function with a decent amount of sanity.  I say “decent amount” because in some way, form or fashion we all are a little crazy. Sometimes, we place ourselves in situations where we know the outcome will not be to our liking, but we follow through with hopes that the situation will change.In this article on Stupid Bitch Syndrome I want to address the concept of “change”. This idea corrupts the mind in ways that are not healthy to any individual. What makes this symptom so devastating is the fact that we can all agree on, “no one person can change an individual.” But, don’t we try…

SBS: A guide to a healthier mind (Part II)

Plums
I decided to begin Stupid Bitch Syndrome by addressing the issue of TIME. Listening to people who have a strong case of SBS, I've concluded that the length of time a person has committed into a given relationship is a cause of why the disease is so prominient. A Stupid Bitch, places emphasis on time invested in hopes of justifying the reasons they deal with unnecessary mess. In this report from the guide we will examine why TIME itself should not be a factor in determining how a relationship progress. Using TIME as a clutch, a person with Stupid Bitch Syndrome say things like but not limited to the following:"We've been together forever, its something I can deal with it""Its been 3 years. I'm not going to let those years go…
