hardest pill i’ve had to swallow this year was learning that no matter how good you can be to someone, no matter how long you’ve been there for them, no matter how much you love them... that they CAN & they WILL turn their back on you. and there is nothing you can do but move on.
As a Black Woman who went to college
I remember being encouraged by other Black Women to "not focus on men" or "not get tied down too young."
Many White Women I know were encouraged to do the exact opposite.
