Bitter is the New Black is sarcastic, dry, and all around awesome written by a blonde reluctant adult trying to remember to put on her big girl pants every day.
I just read in this from US Weekly that Rihanna was spotted making out with Chris Brown in an NYC night club. I just find it sad. Sad that she continues to go to back to him. If she wants to forgive him for bashing her face in then that's her choice. Forgiveness can be very powerful for people of abuse. However, just because she forgives him does not mean she has to associate with him. The fact that she continues to be around him shows what she thinks of herself. Abused women typically go back to their abusers because they feel that's what they deserve. They feel they deserve the abusive love and cannot do any better. I can't ever imagine feeling so poorly of myself that I felt I could do no better than the man who frequently beat me.I pray my self esteem never hits that kind of low. The kind of low were I find it acceptable for someone to put their hands on me. I haven't supported anything of Chris Brown's since he was arrested in 2009. I cannot condone his actions that night or his actions after. He has continued to have childish outbursts while showing no remorse. I will never support anything he's involved in. I will no longer be supporting anything of Rihanna's either because I find her actions deplorable especially since young women look up to her. They look up to her and see her doing these things with Brown and think it's okay to silence themselves and go back to their abusers. Makes me wonder if the next time Chris Brown loses his temper and lashes out at her by raising his hand to her if she will finally get. My guess is she won't.
