Good Girl vs. Bad Girl Myth

Image
This myth has been the bane of my existence for many years. It has held me hostage and crying for mercy many sleepless nights. It has sent me running away in fear to belting out in intoxicating angry lashes at myself, and others. It has caused me to see red and attack others for no reason other than to cause pain. I screamed at the top of my lungs and I cried like a little baby. I was in turmoil over this and didn't know how to stop it.  My dilemma? The title says it all! I wanted to be a "good" girl so bad.

I attract a lot of knuckle heads! There I said it. Let me take a deep breath before I continue. Okay, I may need to OM before I move on. I'm ready. Lately, I feel like I've been attracting people who are a bit challenging to deal with. So i ask myself why? Why am I attracting such less than desirable people in my life? What am I missing? I feel like I'm missing something because I can't seem to shake them. Shake them as in, go away...PUHLEASE! Really that's the polite way of putting it. Y'all know what I really want to say, because we all been there. Dealing with people and we can't figure out why the heck they are in our lives! I'm usually an easy going, easy to get along with kinda chic. I have my days, I'm not even going to lie. I'm not always that peachy, sweet, and rosy but for the most part I feel that I am.
