So I have a friend who has a friend, who has a cousin who has a best friend who usually comes by our house to just hang with the girls on the porch and pour drinks over a lot of chat topics.
I will call this lady Bianca for the purpose of my article.
Yesterday was another lovely evening and we were in the corner of the yard guzzling away our boredom on bottles and bottles of wine and chatting the evening away. Then Bianca shows up with her four year old daughter-Drew.
So Bianca joins our table made up of Janice, Pamela, Shirley, Bernice and me!
Drew plays away in the hall while we chat, Bernice asks Bianca about Drew’s dad and Bianca immediately slams. “the oaf will not even send me and Drew a dime for upkeep, and when Drew got sick the other day, I had to stay awake two nights straight in the hospital all by myself and you know the excuse he cooked up when I called him to bring us some supplies? He had the nerve to tell me he was at a family meeting and could not leave! The hell, like Drew and I aren’t family huh?”
Yea Bianca was mad. But that is to be expected from having a child with a man who already has a family right? You will never be his first family or priority.
This is the part Bianca never mentions when she slams her baby daddy, the fact that he is a married man and she knew he was married even before he got her pregnant.
Now to more the real purpose of this article; we were still doing drinks and on the issue of how single most of us are even though we are somewhat seeing somebody but each persons relationship seems to have its own special issues.
Bianca is the most single one of us because she cannot juggle work, her kid and nurturing a real relationship and according to her, the most painful part is that no single men seem to want a relationship with her. So now she tells us “Ladies, I am actually thinking of giving some married man who has been chasing me a chance”
