Okay, as you know, I’m not an ordinary blogger…so here’s what I would like to do..
I want to know if there is a particular topic or subject you would like for me to discuss on my blog. Since I have a few strong commenters here we could probably have fun with this. I will take one topic or subject or even a question one day of every week. I can do a Monday or Wednesday. You can email me your subject or leave a comment…if you prefer that no one knows who is asking the questions or wants to discuss the subject then indicate that and I will not post your comment publicly or just send me a confidential email to: Serenitysmith98@yahoo.com.
Okay, if you think this is a stupid idea…sorry…but I love to switch things up! For some reason I haven’t got many Dear Serenity emails in a while so let’s get them back going again! I love social interaction on my blog…

Dear Serenity,
My boyfriend and I have been dating for several years and we have one beautiful daughter. We both work and have pretty good jobs. Yet, my boyfriend comes from a family of money! I get spoiled with material things and gets to travel more than the average girl my age. The problem is that he gets angry all the time and he scares me a lot. He threatens to kill me or shoot me or beat up, but I don’t think he will. Well in a way I do. He has slapped me once but I covered it with make up and never told anyone about it. He locked me in my room for an entire weekend once. I had my cell phone with me but I was scared to call anyone. All of my friends think we are the perfect couple and I just don’t want to let them down. What should I do? He talks to me like I’m worthless all the time, mostly when we are alone. My daughter loves her father and he is really good with her, but I’m the only one not happy here!! Should I be selfish and exit the relationship? If I leave I will have to start all over with nothing. I’m not sure if my family will support my decision to leave. I’m so sad!
Wow! I read this and I was getting pissed with each word. Nobody deserves to be treated this way and I’m sure you have heard this before. You ask yourself this is those trips and material things worth your life or possibly your life being taken if he snap?! Normally, I don’t say leave your man, but when it comes to domestic violence or any kind of abuse. Verbal or Physical I have to advise you to get out while you can, safely though! Don’t take his words lightly when he say he will kill you. Be safe about it for you and your daughter. Keep me updated! I’ll be praying for you…
Readers feel free to comment! Thanks!

Seems like everyone around me is breaking up or going through drama with their men! Um, damn I thought winter time was Make-UP Season! Guess not this year! Problem is most of my friends look to me for advice but only the strong can handle what the hell I have to say…Looks like a few have fell off. Why do women do that? Why ask me a freaking question if you don’t want my honest answer? I’m not mad that you don’t discuss the issue with me anymore or stop talking to me all together because you came to me. I just can’t understand your thought process behind it.
Women always feel so guilty about the slightest mistakes we make, yet we can’t come close to what Men put us through. Stop fucking making excuses to let him walk all over you! Think with your damn head and not your heart for once!
Break-ups suck! I hate to go through one and hate to witness someone else go through one, but that’s the cycle of life. Got to get thru the bad to get to the good! But if you stand still in the wrong spot too long you will miss out! Just my thoughts at random!

Maybe tonight I’ll get home in time enough to finish writing in Drifting Apart~ I just been working so much overtime. I’m so behind on reading my favorite blogs, uggh! I hate that part because I love to read the updates. I’ll also have to update again on some new blogs I’m now reading as addition to the others I follow. Some I’ve read from my phone but I can only comment or “LIKE” them from my computer!
*serenitysmith98@yahoo.com*
I’m going to be answering some questions from my emails as well this week! Stay tuned!

Still stuck on the subject! I write about many things here and I haven’t been able to just write on one subject for a solid week yet! I mean I watch my views go up and down. I monitor who subscribe and who follows, being the analytical person I am…I just been trying to find out what my readers like! Instead I find myself off key with writing based off of my mood or what’s going on around me at the time. Are you doing the same here?
Well we all know sex is a sure hitter for views to go up to the ceilings…I can get a hundred views or more a day off of that subject but my life is not filled with enough of it to talk about it everyday! Maybe I should do it more often! LOL Just kidding…
I was surprised to know Parenting Bratts does pretty well though…I want to share with as many people as I can so I think I may take my blog to another level here soon.
Talk to me readers and bloggers…
email me at serenitysmith98@yahoo.com or just leave me a comment!

Well quite a few small things has happen since my last blog. Like, I should be writing another subject to Parenting Bratts soon because those damn kids are running me crazy! LOL…
And for those who might be wondering did I keep my word with the child support. I did make the phone call and to my surprise the court said he has got all the reductions he is going to get but he can try going through the courts again! Hell I’m done with it. I’m not going to stress over that shit like it’s to me and my children benefit!
I been preparing for my trip and been trying to start a secret BLOG! Ha!! but it seems as if I’m cheating or something and I can’t write there. So here I am…You guys are stuck with me!!
What do you guys want to talk about? tell me and if u don’t want your response approved for everyone to view just let me know and I will not publish it!

I’m thinking of what I want to talk about next week…I’m so into this blogging thing. It’s sort of my therapy, sad I know but I love to write, I love to share, hell I love to talk and here I can say whatever! Even though I know some people know me in person…I still feel somewhat anonymous! Therefore, I’m leaning toward never posting any real life pictures of myself here. I guess I will remain a Blog without a face!
As a reader myself I enjoy funny pictures and the videos and I enjoy to actually see the person behind it if they choose to share, but it doesn’t take away from their blog to me. How do you feel about it? Do you need a face with a Blog?

Dear SerenityLuv,
I’m married with children but my children are not all from my wife. The story is I take care of my children outside of the child support, I spend lots of time with them and they are very important to me and my wife too. We been very active in their lives. My wife takes them to their doctor appointments, visit their schools when I’m working and unable to and I’m there equally and more. Well the problem is I have one child (outside of my marriage) my child mother is financially unstable, mentally unstable too (but that’s just my opinion) and she has other children that doesn’t belong to me. I had been able to have my child in the home with me for quite some time and now she wants my child back home with her. I’m so upset about it. I mean my child was doing much better in school, active in sports & I never had a problem with splitting holidays with their mom. My Ex (child mother) situation has not changed but yet just because she has the right she wants to take my child back. Okay so I agree to that but she doesn’t want to cooperate with me getting them like I want. I mean she makes it complicated for me to see my child. I don’t understand. I mean what’s the point of her taking my child back when she’s struggling and really can’t afford them, doesn’t have the time to see to them with homework and all the important things. I think this is just a selfish act on her part just to prove to her friends that she has all her children home with her. I’m thinking of taking her to court for my child. What do you think? Am I missing something here?
WOW! I have so many male friends who deals with similar or worse situations like this. How many women are fighting to have an active father in their child or children lives? Yet, here we have a father that wants to help wants to be a good father and the odds are against him. Women we have got to do better. Children are not objects or tools they are little human beings who need both parents ~ regardless of money & your hurt feelings.
P.S. Mr Dad-if you can’t work things out with the mother take her to court, we have to do what’s best for the child!

Dear SerenityLuv,
Do you think my boyfriend is cheating on me? When we are out he turns his cell phone off or leaves it in the car. I mean usually he has his phone with him when we are not together. I don’t want to sound insecure but I’m starting to wonder if he’s cheating on me. There are times when I can’t reach him not often but when it does occur it’s for long periods of time and he always say he was sleep or something that doesn’t make sense. Another thing, I use to be able to drive to his house all the time but now he seems to try to avoid me coming over and if I do he wants to pick me up. I don’t know what to think, it’s a lot of small things that is weird on unusual about him. What do you think?
Sincerely Amy
Dear Amy,
There is definitely something going on here. Either he is giving you undivided attention or he doesn’t want you to ask why he’s not answering his phone and possibly don’t want the person who’s calling him to ask why he’s ignoring their calls. I’m going to say this if you are not one of those girls who just have extremely low self-esteem and is paranoid all the time-follow your gut feeling. If something doesn’t feel right then it’s probably not! Oh yeah, and he probably doesn’t want you to stop by because there might be a head on collision, you follow me! If he picks you up people will not be able to ride by and see a strange car in the drive. I say bring it to his attention-call his bluff and watch him squirm just keep in mind men are good liars. Trust what you feel. Either way it goes if you don’t feel secure in the relationship and can’t communicate your feelings to him and feel good about things it’s always going to be a problem!
Just my thoughts! What’s yours?
