Don’t Call It A Comeback!

CocoaDiva — Sun, 09 May 2010 19:20:06 +0000

Alright folks. I know it has been way too long. I just needed to reorganize my life physically, mentally, and spiritually. So many things in my life needed a pick me up and like most of you a shift in my life turned towards keeping my job. But, as part of my committment and dedication to [...] No related posts.

Tiger Woods Apologized: So What?

CocoaDiva — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 17:09:20 +0000

So, I awoke this morning, not to a Special Report about a natural disaster, or a Presidential Address regarding a national crisis, but to a 15 minute long “heartfelt” apology to the world to the world from Tiger Woods. The first thing that crossed my mind was so what and why does he get to [...] Related posts:

Its Tiger’s Wife’s Fault He Cheated?

CocoaDiva — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 17:26:38 +0000

So, according to word on the street, Tiger is up to mistress number 9!! I mean they have only been married a little over 5 years. That’s a whole lot of cheating if you ask me. I don’t agree with all the mess in the media saying Elin is at fault for all of Tiger’s cheating. [...] Related posts:

Monogamy is Against Human Nature?

CocoaDiva — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 19:21:23 +0000

I was sitting around chatting with a few of my male friends. They tried to persuade me that monogamy is dead in marriage and that men should not be held to the standards of our parents. What??? I refuse to believe that such a thing can be true. Back in our parents and grandparents time, marriages [...] Related posts:

Closure and Relationships

CocoaDiva — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 07:01:41 +0000

Make it last foreva, and eva, and eva…….well sometimes it doesn’t. That relationship or “situation” you were in ended for one reason or another. I have found people fit into two categories, the one needing closure and the one running from it (ie. dumper/dumpee). Often times, we live happily in the grey with someone until [...] Related posts:

Two Week Workout Plan

CocoaDiva — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 17:05:49 +0000

No, I know you cannot change your weight in two weeks. Rome wasn’t built in a day and you have to chisel away all those Gyros and Cheesteak building blocks that make the current you. However, in the spirit of the swiftly approaching SpelHouse homecoming, I wanted to give those few stragglers who couldn’t get [...] Related posts:

Holding Hands in Public – Its A Big Deal

CocoaDiva — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 14:57:53 +0000

So, I noticed something the other day. Many men don’t do public displays of affection. No, I am not talking about slobbing you down in the middle of the street, or that hand to buttcheek cuff in a crowded party. I’m talking about something so simple as holding our hand. A friend blogged about this [...] Related posts:

Body Language and Lying in Relationships

CocoaDiva — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 16:54:04 +0000

Everybody lies. The lies may be small and harmless (“That haircut looks great!”; “I find your abs way better than Brad Pitt’s”), or they may be big and serious (“No, honey, I didn’t take out a second mortgage”). Even the “harmless” ones can destroy a relationship if they’re sufficiently frequent. So how do you know [...] Related posts:
