Janice Q's blog: "a poem I wrote last year to Kenneth"

IF A MAN WANTS YOU If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache. Stop trying to change yourselves for a relationship that's not meant to be. Slower is better. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly Happy. If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you Deserve, Then heck no, you can't "be friends." A friend wouldn't mistreat a Friend. Don't settle. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he Probably is. Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at Yourself A year later for staying when things are not better. The only person you can control in a relationship is you. Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, Why would he treat you any differently? Always have your own set of friends separate from his. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up. Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later. You cannot change a man's behavior. Change comes from within. Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are...even if he Has More education or in a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less. Never let a man define who you are. Never borrow someone else's man. Oh Lord! If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you. A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you. All men are NOT dogs. You should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is a Two-way street. You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute About Baggage... Deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you...a relationship Consists Of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone complimentary...not Supplementary. Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right. Make him miss you sometimes...when a man always know where you are, and You are Always readily available to him- he takes it for granted. Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you Need. Keep him in your radar but get to know others. BY THE WAY, THIS WAS WRITTEN BY A MAN, SO TAKE A HINT..............

Artist: Kellie Pickler Album: Small Town Girl Title: Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You I remember the way you made love to me Like I was all you'd ever need Did you change your mind Well I didn't change mine Now here I am trying to make sense of it all We were best friends now we don't even talk You broke my heart Ripped my world apart Didn't you know how much I loved you Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby I gave you everything, every part of me Didn't you feel it when I touched you Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby Baby, tell me Didn't you know how much I loved you I can't get you out of my head I still feel you in this bed Left me all alone You couldn't be more gone From falling apart to fighting mad From wanting you back to not giving a damn I've felt it all I've been to the wall Didn't you know how much I loved you Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby I gave you everything, every part of me Didn't you feel it when I touched you Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby Baby, tell me Didn't you know how much I loved you One day justice will come and find you And I'll be right there in your memory to remind you Didn't you know how much I loved you Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby I gave you everything, every part of me Didn't you feel it when I touched you Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby Baby, tell me Didn't you know how much I loved you Didn't you know how much I loved you, baby I gave you everything, every part of me Didn't you feel it when I touched you Didn't I rock you when I loved you, baby Baby, tell me I gave you everything, every part of me

How do I tell you what you mean to me? You see things in me, I will never see. I search for the words, and I find none. How do I make you see, you are the only one? I have never felt like this before, My heart so full of love, can I feel more? I miss you every minute of the day, All I can pray for, is for you to stay. What have I done to deserve a man like you? The world is full of males, but real men, there are few. You were sent to me by something bigger than me. When we first saw each other, it was destiny. I’ll love you forever, of this I am sure Your heart is my heart, our love is so pure. What fate brought together, let no one tear apart You are my love, my world and my heart. I will love you forever and ever. Janice Ilene 6/17/2006
