Broke Back Mountain

Ang Lee's Brokeback Mountain is a thought-provoking and moving love story. Yes it is the story of two married men, that explore a homosexual relationship. That was the main reason why I wanted to see it. However, I am also a romantic, and like most this was also an affair. Not your typical and/or usual affair, but an affair that spanned 20 years, nonetheless.

I went throw so many emotions with this movie. At first I was shocked and amazed at the chemistry between these two actors Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhall. The heat emanating from the screen between these two were as real and tangible as the heat I felt from Omar Epps and Sanaa Lathan in Love and Basketball. It filled the entire theater, as did the eroticisim that burst forth between Ledger and Gyllenhall.

I give this movie 5 stars. I was shocked in the beginning, I was laughing middle and I cryed in the end.

No, this movie is not for the faint of heart. It is however, for the open minded, individual that can handle seeing love shared between two men.

Online Dating

When I first got my computer, I used to sit up and chat all night long with numerous people from across the globe. As I got bolder, I actually met some of these individuals that I had chatted with online. The one commonality I found was that they all lied about something...that was in 2002. Today, I am a member of three online dating services {I'm a free member to them so communication is limited} anyway, three years later I am finding the same thing...that they all lie for some reason or another. Now my girlz feel that I am crazy to not only talk to these freaks I meet online but to actually meet them. And I am beginning to realize that they are right...I am crazy or are they crazy? I'm crazy because I genuinely want a relationship, and I am finding out the reason why some of these men are still single and that is....drum roll please--- They don't say what they mean and mean what they say! That goes for the women as well! Now I know life happens and you had a life before ...

Relationship Deal Breakers

We all know folks out here tolerating alot of unnecessary bullshyt from their significant other...I sit back and look at them, saying to myself "Girl, you are good, because I wouldn't put up with that bullshyt," but you know what, someone will. Or is it more like someone has to? How many times have we heard that what one woman/man won't do another will? Too many times to count, right. But does that saying make situations right? I mean when someone does something that you don't like...betrays a trust, a confidence, cheats, steals, or lies etc...what makes some people forgive---over and over and over and over...how many times does a person get a second chance? Don't get me wrong, I feel that sometimes people make honest mistakes...but to continue to repeat the same mistake is not a mistake...its a problem, that obviously the person cannot fix on their own. When I think of deal breakers, I think like this... Cheating Cheating and the person gets pregnant Cheating...
