Why Did He Break Up With Me? Black Women Bare their Souls about Love, Loss & Lessons Learned! 

I've received some powerful breakup stories from sisters. As Why Did He Break Up With Me? has evolved, I too have evolved. I've learned that it's not only possible to be single, but a woman can also be satisfied, even happy alone. As I've talked to audiences about love and relationships I've met beautiful, accomplished black women who are choosing to be single and unattached.  One woman, a college professor, husband recently passed away. She says she's loving her singleness. Another sister, divorced, with two children in college who just earned a master's degree in social work, says she's enjoying not having to answer to another person, not having to consider another in her decision making. Her life is her own. She doesn't have to explain why she "bought a second loaf of bread even though the frig is full." If you can relate, if you're single and satisfied, share your story. Tell us where you are emotionally and spiritually, how you got there, what sustains you, how you spend your time, and what brings you joy.
