He Told Me He Loved Me...

He Told Me He Loved Me...

He told me he loved me.
Then he told me I was a whore.
He constantly berated me.
and even told me I was a sore...
loser that is...
Until I gave him head...
Then it was all good;
Until he bashed my head...

IN

After that...

I tried to console HIM,
I believed it was my fault;
I told him he was the best I'd ever had,
so a ring for me he bought...
Then I heard...FUCK YOU BITCH!
and the truth came out instead,
That I truly liked him, but somehow I knew...

I could end up dead.

Opposites Attract....or Do They?

I have heard all my life that opposites attract, but early on, I was never one to understand that saying because I never got along with anyone I felt was opposite me. It wasn't until I got older, maybe in my late 20's when I completely understood it, but didn't agree.

I have always been a person with standards, requirements, wants, or whatever you want to call them, but I have always believed that a person shouldn't settle for less when they know what they want.

That being said, let's fastforward to the present time and how my beliefs have changed drastically from what I believed in my 20's and how they quickly reverted back to those beliefs within a month or so. It doesn't take long....

Anyway, I reconnected with this guy from years ago that I never gave a chance to, mainly because he was shorter than me and I have had a strict rule about never dating men shorter than me (unless it's Prince, if I should ever be so fortunate to meet that man!). I've also had rules about never dating men who have been married, have kids, have gold teeth (or missing teeth for that matter), jheri curls, etc. The list goes on, but as you can see a few of the things on this list can be altered as you grow older and you realize that the chances of you meeting a man your age who has never been married or has children may be slim to none. I can deal with that now, but the gold teeth/missing teeth/jheri curl...no can do. Back to my point...I've adjusted some of my "standards" and one of them was dating a man shorter than me other than Prince because I believe that you can pass up your blessings if you're too picky.

Well, this guy made me comfortable from day one, probably because we have known each other for years and he made me smile constantly. I was on cloud nine daily and all my friends could see it. My closest friends knew what was going on while others wondered what was different about me. To make a long story short, I finally believed opposites could attract because not only was he shorter than me, but he has a child and has a bad boy personality; all three characteristics I never thought I'd be attracted to.

BUT, before I tell you we have been happily ever after, let me say that he showed his true thug, jackass, disrespectful, non compassionate, deadbeat dad ass to me, forcing me to revert back to my "standards". So, with that being said...I STILL don't believe opposites attract!

Missing In Action

Wow! I just realized I haven't posted a blog post in ages...

I'm back though, refreshed and ready to take on the world! So, what has been up with Ms. Gemini lately, you ask? Well, for starters, I've been working hard on my design work and trying to perfect this photography thing. Aside from that, I tried getting back into the dating game and the working thing, but that didn't work out too well, so I decided to take a back seat and start over. Now I'm still doing the design and photography thing because that's my destiny, but I've decided to focus on something new as far as the world of dating goes...

I took some time to get to know the real "me" and realize that I cannot continue to be the selfish person I've been in certain areas, so instead, I decided it was time to get to know the real Gemini I am and say "FUCK IT" you can change whatever you want to change...and not care what the next person says or thinks.

So, with that being said...I present to you the new and improved Gemini!!!
