An young lady ask me where do all the nice guys that want relationships hangout at. My answer: THEY don’t have a club where they all meet up but there are ways to spot a great man that will commit but you can’t look at just his looks or accomplishments. You have to look at the whole picture…including what kind of friends he has, how he treats women / how the friends treat women & how he interacts with his family. It’s all about character traits. Birds of a feather often flock together.

He is a Father. Not A Baby Daddy.
This goes out to all my self proclaimed baby mamas. You are a mom. He is your child’s father. He needs to be a real dad even if he chooses not to make a life with you. A child is involved now & the first impressions you demonstrate of ” love” will affect that child for a lifetime. www.fromgirltogirl.com Stop the whole that’s my baby daddy. It’s foolish. That’s my child’s father is a respectful title.

How To Commit To Healthy Living: Set A Routine
My birthday is only a few days away & with that I made a new commitment to myself. The past year I have been on a spiritual journey. I have been working on it. I’m not as angry as I use to be about life & I am now accepting that some things I have no control over. One thing I never had control over was saving my older brother’s life after he fell ill. Our birthdays we always shared & this will be roughly the 5th year I didn’t share it with him. The pain of losing him is still there but it’s not as painful as before. It’s like God took that pain from me…I feel like something better is in store & I’ll see my brother again in time. Life is short. But along with my spiritual commitment I am adding a physical fitness commitment to myself. I am setting a goal to workout at least 30 minutes to 1 hour everyday. I am setting my workouts right after dinners. I am keeping hydrated and adding of fibers to my diet as well. My main focus is working on my core. Since graduating college,I gained 25 pounds. What can I say? Baltimore has good food but I don’t want my weight to get out of control. So I am doing this for my health & well being. I am a firm believer that my body will take care of me if I take care of my body. Will keep you posted on my progress. – Fromgirltogirl

Manhood: The Lost Generation
One of the worse decisions a woman can make for herself & society: Procreating with someone who never reached manhood. A guy can’t teach his son to be a man if he never learned to be a man himself.
