To My Bestfriend.... B.


My bestfriend was one of the first men that I genuinely ever loved, and still love. B and I started off as a couple years ago, and even with that not working, we have always kept love and respect for one another. He seriously is my heart and I'd do anything for him. Not a lot of people are blessed with the opportunity to have true friends, we may have friends, but I am talking about true friends that will be there through thick and thin and ride your life rollercoaster with you. B was there before the adult Briahna, before the tamed Briahna, before the Briahna and Allen.... he was there through all major markers of my life and still continues to be one of my major support systems. If there is one person that I tell I love you to everyday, it is him. When you discover that you have a true friendship with someone, my main advice to you is to do everything to keep that friendship together and strong because you just might not get another one like it. I have known B since my freshman year of high school and our friendship has surpassed relationships, women who I thought would be in my life eternally, hell, even some relationships that I have had with family... my relationship with him has been present past them all and I kinda think we both slept on it for the longest time. I think that through meeting two people that we thought were our soulmates, and leaving them, we got a lot closer than we thought we would and connected on so many levels. My bestfriend, he was the one I called when I thought I was pregnant and he was the one that held my hand. My bestfriend, he was the one that kept it real with me most times and said men weren't shit. It's something amazing about having a guy bestfriend because I can literally text him asking what this means from a guy and he will keep it real. He always keeps it real with me. My bestfriend.... if I live to be old (based on my personal definition) and I am unmarried and still wanting a child, he will be the person to help me get what it is that I want because our love for each other is just like that. As I sit up and think about all the things to say about you, B... I struggle because I may not express it to you everyday, but I am wayyy beyond grateful and thankful for you. I have went through my share of relationships and friendships with men and this is the one man that has not deceived me. The one man that has not torn me down where I stood.... the one man that hasn't seen me for only sex and tried to take advantage of me. My love for him is unexplainable and everlasting. If you can't sit up and get sensitive over your bestfriend when talking about your trials and tribulations, are they really your bestfriend because just blogging about this has me on edge. When you find a friendship, a bond, a relationship similar to what we may have... don't be lazy in it. Don't think that you don't have to put in work to keep the bond present because you do. There will never be another person, situation, obstacle... whatever to dismantle your place in my life, bestfriend.... and I love you.

Girl friendssssss !!!!

Girlfriends was by far one of the best television shows that I grew up watching, and still watch to this day... and when I think about the type of women/social circle that I would like to be around, Joan, Toni, Mya, and Lynn is exactly what it would look like. I remember starting off the sixth grade and traveling up until high school with a huge social circle filled with all these different types of girls and young women with varied personalities, values, and beliefs. Throughout that time, my social circle remained large, but there were some tweaks here and there and some people were not meant to last. What I mean is, we outgrow some relationships, we drain out some relationships, and we sometimes stop putting forth the effort to keep up effective relationships. Over the course of those years, I developed a lot of meaningful relationships and developed a slight sense of what type of people I wanted to be surrounded by. One of the major adjustments that I had throughout graduat

Facebook Chronicles.

My post had over 250 comments and 18 shares as of writing this blog. So, all different types of men come in my dms messaging me with different purposes. I've gotten nudes in my messages, wanna-be thugs, nerds, mixtapes, drama, and all these other things in my messages, but today was the ultimate breaking point for me. This guy, who has been trying to get with me for years, came in my messages trying to talk to me, which I denied, and he in return got potty within the mouth and said some disrespectful things to me. There were a few reasons why I shared the messages on Facebook and Snapchat that I really want to share. For starters, there are right and wrong ways to approach women when you come in their direct messages. I don't know how other people were raised, but meeting and talking to people online is already something sketchy because you don't really have a sure perception of how this person is through something where we can be who we want to be.

How Do You Go About Letting People Go?

The past few days, people have been trying me, yet I have provided them with opportunities to change that. Today, I decided to take the initiative to cut off my "best friend" due to her no longer being fit to have that role anymore. Was the decision hard? Far from it. I say that... if you allow people the opportunity to come back into your life from a previous mishap, and they did not learn from it from not having you present in their life then, then they are not fit to be a part of your life. I do not grieve over losses of people in that manner anymore because I make decisions that are going to be best for me. If it is best for me to cut ties with people that I have known for years, so be it. Whether it is friends, family, whoever... because you will not have a place in my life where you choose to be toxic. We are not going to speak on the countless nights where you called and I was the only one there to talk to. We are not going to speak on how you questioned whether you w
