"Girl…He Is NOT Going To Marry You" (Naomi's Blog)

Optimized-Blog_3-Pic

So, Thanksgiving has come and gone and no proposal during dinner from my guy. The holidays have passed and no ring as a gift. Even after the clock struck twelve to bring in the New Year, I still have no ring. Maybe for Valentine’s Day if I’m lucky, he’ll pop the question. Until then, I will continue to “convince” my guy of how “worthy” I am of becoming a wife. I will take into consideration all that he has told me … Read more →

"Unsettled Feelings" (A FB Guest Blog From Brooklyn)

"Unsettled Feelings" (A FB Guest Blog From Brooklyn)

I am sitting here thinking to myself and trying to absorb all the pain I feel and the pain of others. I have communicated to a few other women about the pain from failed relationships and the type of pain that I endured during my relationships. It’s still unclear to me why a man must hurt a woman in such ways. You know, he cheats, he hits you, etc. Or he puts you down and makes you feel inferior to him. … Read more →

"Fairy Tale Love…Bliss After Hell" (Lupe's Blog)

"Fairy Tale Love…Bliss After Hell" (Lupe's Blog)

As I stand there in the bridal boutique watching my very best friend try on dress after dress, I come to the realization that she is finally getting the real thing. She has met a man that not only treats her like a queen but loves her daughters, as well. I am quiet and in awe as I look at her face and see how truly happy she is…and I wonder: Will I ever feel happiness like that? I have seen … Read more →

"Is 'Separated' The New 'Single'?" (A Guest Blog From Yarisela)

Optimized-couple-separated-by-glass-thumb8886196

Men…they su*k! lol. Is it OK to act single when you’re separated from your spouse? Does being separated, with the future hope of reconciliation, mean that we are free to do whatever we want in the mean time? Clubs, bars, checking people out, maybe even sleeping with them, partying, living the single life etc. I’m not doing this stuff…my husband/ex(?) is. I’m just confused because I feel disrespected. I feel like the lines of single and still married are blurred, especially … Read more →

"My Refusal To Have Unprotected Sex" (A Guy Needs A Female's Perspective)

Optimized-emergency-contraceptive

Hi. I’m sending this to SoLatina in hopes of getting a females opinion. I’m actually a fan of SoLatina on FB. Kind of embarrassing but, oh well. lol This morning my girlfriend asked me to cum inside her. She’s on the pill but I feel really uncomfortable doing so. I trust her but I already have one child that I wasn’t prepared for as a result of having unprotected sex while genuinely believing that my (ex) partner at the time was … Read more →

“Creepers, Ever Dealt With One?” (Claudia's Blog)

Optimized-Claudia-Gil

Being single has been a good thing for me in my life right now. I can honestly say that I am in a good place in my life and that I’m truly happy…for as the saying goes, “Mejor sola que mal acompanada!” The saying is very true! At least for me it has been. Well, since I’ve been single I have been making time to do things with my amigas and have an occasional girls night out. Even though I have … Read more →

“It Will Be All About Me…For A Change” (Cuni's Commentary)

Blog_13-Pic_200x200

Some day when I’m ready I will search for a man; one who will love me for me; one who will take interest in getting to know me.  How can he like me if he shows no interest in anything that I do?  The man who will love me will wonder about my passions, will always want to know more, will ask all the questions, will listen.  I will feel totally comfortable being myself around him and things will just “jive”.  … Read more →

“Don’t Call Me Baby!” (Claudia’s Blog)

“Don’t Call Me Baby!” (Claudia’s Blog)

Hi, my name is Claudia and I’m a proud mother of 2. I have the best of both worlds: I have a beautiful 17-year-old daughter and a handsome 13-year-old son. They are truly the best things in my life. Since this is my first blog for SoLatina I wasn’t sure what I would write about, so I thought maybe I could just write whatever comes to mind that I feel girls can relate to. So here’s my first one, hope you … Read more →

Parenting My Way (Crystal R’s Blog)

Parenting My Way (Crystal R’s Blog)

Hi everyone. I have an issue I would like to discuss and maybe get your insight on. I have this guy friend who has four kids by three different women. The oldest is 14 and the youngest is 7. The sad thing is that these women took his kids away from seeing him even though he always paid his child support, paid extra money to them and provided them with whatever they needed. His first baby mama has finally came to … Read more →

Diary Of A Young Latina Mom (Lupe’s Blog #5)

Diary Of A Young Latina Mom (Lupe’s Blog #5)

I’ve been dreading following up on my blog because that means that I have to admit that there’s something wrong with me. That even though I attempt to be strong and refuse to let my emotions take the best of me, I am, hurting. I hurt because I still have so much anger, so much hurt, so much pain. I am so smart that I’m stupid. When it comes to academics, I’m very good, when it comes to life, I’m stupid. … Read more →
