Right now I am crush free (of course in reality crush terms) and I am just getting ready for another semester of school while I start up my second blog for romance writing.
When it comes to all the boys I’ve loved before I have no regrets in the decisions that I have made that have brought me up to this point.
I read this interview with Mavis Staples civil rights activist and singer about how she had a proposal from Bob Dylan when they were young:
A: (Laughing) That doggone Internet, they in everybody’s business. Me and Bobby met when we were teenagers and we were together a lot when the Staple Singers were doing folk festivals. When we weren’t together, we would write each other letters and talk on the phone.
One day after Bobby and I had just met, my father and I were standing in line to get lunch, and from way in the back of the line, Bobby yelled, “Pops, I want to marry Mavis.” And Pops yelled back, “Don’t tell me, tell Mavis.”
We went on into our 20s, and it was my fault that it stopped. I was so young I thought Dr. King might not like that, me marrying a white man. Later on, Pops told me that was foolish. He said, “Haven’t you been listening to what that Dylan kid is saying — ‘How many roads must a man walk down …’ Don’t you see all the white people marching with us?”
I often wonder if we’d gotten together and had some kids … they’d be some poetry-writing, singing kids, wouldn’t they?
I thought that I had said everything that I needed to before the new university year and thought about everything that I needed to...but that interview just got me. Honestly, this blog is about showing crushes in order to show that it isn’t a weird out of the ordinary thing for black women to like men of other races. It is normal period.
But how serious it proving that point is just got to be over and over again through reading that interview. Do not let a crush be regret in life. If you want to then don’t let anyone stop you!
In rawer terms: It is your life, your crush, your relationship, your marriage and your bedroom--YOU RULE IT!
