Hey Roxie,

I'm glad to here you had a wonderful time in Jamaica.

My husband and I was just talking about going back to Jamaica to visit. I mentioned to him that I want to stay at a resort..but then I told him that I'm afraid that I'll be spending a lot time by myself. He will be doing all of this catching up with family and friends. If I stay with him parents, I'll still be left with them but not alone. His suggestion is that we go somewhere else.

I only know Jamaica. What other islands would be a nice getaway. Then he can visit jamaica by himself.

Roxie - That was sooo cute. What a moment.

Philly - I didn't get a chance to check it. I'll check it out tonight.

Lawny- I agree..nothing like a cold shower in the morning. It's like it cooled me off from the heat.

Don't get me wrong..I like a warm bath too. I didn't have a problem with the cold shower.

Okay..first off my first shower my husband's house...No one told me there was no hot water. The bathroom and shower looked just the one here. Had a hot knob and a cold knob. Man o man. I jumped out of that tub so fast almost ripping the shower curtain. I find myself taking a cold (with just a little hot) shower during the summer here. I wish I knew this growing up in Florida.

KK

LOL I agree with u. When I got to my SO house I was like he is such a liad when I seen the two knobs but I quickly found out he was telling the truth... Did your SO laugh at yuh??

We never had the shower conversation. So he only knew after I told him. He was impressed that I could handle it. LOL.

Long time no see JG!!!

How is it going?

Hey KK. It's all good.

How about yourself?

Everything is good on my end. I can't wait for some real warm weather. Although I'm going to Orlando and Atlanta in May.

wha?? no JAMAICA??? i understand though kk, i hated when i was left w/ my husband's family.. i mean i get along w/ everybody, but i just didn't like getting left behind..

the bahamas was real nice.. i love the breeze, it so very refreshing and tranquil..

Kim, our first back to Jamaica I took my mother and aunt so I have someone to talk to. I, too, thought Damien would be all ova JA without me. That wasn't the case...there was a few times he was looking for me I kept myself busy.

Nicely put.

I'm having one of these days wondering what the h@ll I got myself into

stay up shemmy..i know it gets hard, but u just have to get over those humps. good days outweighing the bad?? just keep swimming then as nemo's lil friend said..

[^KK^ 3]

Shemmy, that might be a good idea. Take my mother..but then she is going to want my dad to come too. So I'll be third wheeling. Wait..can you be a third wheel when it's your parents. I was thinking maybe some friends.

[Rick Ross 0]

Thank you so much!!!

Everything that you said was so right! I know that they are only trying to protect me but at the same time can't they just accept the fact that I'm happy?? That is all that I am really asking for. I do not want them to help me in anyway at all other than be a support system.

Heck what is the difference in meeting someone in JA and falling in love or going to to the club meeting some stranger and proclaiming your love for him in a month? What is the differnce? None in my opinion!

No difference noted. MOst of us here understand what you're going through. Now that I look back, my family and friends was very supportive. Shoot, one my friends is the reason I even gave him a chance. I say...keep you eyes on the prize...meaning don't give up because other don't believe. I wish you and Rick {the SO...I'm guessing} a wonderful life and speedy visajourney.

KK

[Rick Ross 0]

Thank you so much KK..

I have my eye on the prize (SO.. RICK) and I know that we are going to make it!! I have faith in God and the love that he brought to us. Although it's hard to be around people who say it's not going to work!

[^KK^ 3]

Quana - Is the bahamas similar to Jamaica?

[Shemmy 4]

Shemmy, that might be a good idea. Take my mother..but then she is going to want my dad to come too. So I'll be third wheeling. Wait..can you be a third wheel when it's your parents. I was thinking maybe some friends.

Our second trip back, a few of friends who never been to JA travelled with us. We had some much fun. My father-in-law came to our hotel and cooked us breakfast every morning. My friends and I would head out doing tourist stuff all day and we hookup back up for dinner and the club. I assumed he be hanging out with friends and family all day. A few times Damien called my driver to tell me he missed me When my friends left, I stayed a few days to for "us" time...one of my best trips.

KK, the Bahamas is nice, but there is still so much to do and see in Jamaica, why don't you plan a couple of the events for you and your husband and then let there be some days that you both do individual things.

Quana - Is the bahamas similar to Jamaica?

KK, the bahamas has over a couple of hundreds different lil islands.

[^KK^ 3]

Shemmy - Yeah, his thinking is he would rather me be in Jamaica with him then at home with no dinner ????? Yeah..no dinner!!! I think he believe I can't eat without him. LMAO...I can fixed food to eat too. I know I don't cook but I can eat out. He suggested that we coordinate with his sister and family as to when they are going down. They plan on staying at a resort too.

[TRELAWNY PARISH 10]

Thank you for taking the time to talk to me!! It's hard for me because all of my family and friends with the exception of one think that I'm NUTTS!! I know that it was and still is hard for them to believe that I could go to JA for a few days and fall in love with a man that I barely know but to be honest that is exactly how it happened. We met through a friend of my brothers and communicated via emails, IM's and phone calls for moths and I decided to go visit him. I had no expectations of anything but having a good time. I knew that he was a fun loving guy but I had no idea that he was going to be the way that he is. He is truly amazing!! He made me believe in myself again and learn how to trust again. I'm not saying that I don't question things from time to time but that's only human nature, RIGHT?? I'm mean what 34 year old woman would question a man 10 years younger's intentions. I think a lot of that has to do with mi past and I pray that time will heal all of these issues because I don't want to run him away with all of my paranoia.. I know that this is not going to be an easy process and it's going to be a rough 2 years but I'm willing to make it work out by any means necessary just have to ward off that little voice in my head that appears from time to time that makes me doubt or want to give up. I'm learning to call him or text him when I'm having one of my episodes because he always knows how to bring me back to where I need to be. I know that it's hard but at the end of the day the one thing that remains the same is the love that we have for one another.

I look forward to talking to you ladies and hopefully getting to meet some of you one day!!

I know I'm late but I had to reapply. You really can't blame your family or friends I mean put yourself in their shoes. If one of them came back from JA saying they met a younger man for a couple of days and now they are smitten with them would you really believe them?? I mean really you would think they too a have gone mad.. I tell people all the time and I'm a FIRM believer in it. If you have not experienced it yourself you won't believe it. Its one of them things where you have to walk the walk to talk the talk. If not its all insane to you. When people t thought I was crazy for going back to see my SO shoot I did too I couldn't believe them but I was getting on the plane so there was nothing they could do. That is why I said find a supportive friends or family member. Leave the non believers alone because they will only add to your headache. Now trusting a man that is a million miles away is not no easy feat. Shoot I'm still struggling with it but it is what it is just like he has to trust me wayyyyy over here. I think if the two of you go through obstacles that is good. A perfect relationship would be a suspect relationship to me.

One thing that I love about my SO is I can be having the WORST possible day and just the sound of his voice makes everything better. Crazy I tell ya...

Nicely put.

don't say that, but I understand...can't wait for the weather to hit the 70s, I say GIRLS NIGHT @ CROSSROADS...I need a release

[^KK^ 3]

Roxie - I do miss Jamaica. I would love to visit Ocho Rios again.

KK, when I'm in JA, if Joel isn't able to entertain me or I want to go somewhere that he isn't interested in going, he will arrange for someone that he trust to go with or hang out with me. It's usually a good friend of his or a family member and they are happy to hang. So don't let the idea that you will be lonely stop you from going back to Ja with him.
