Let’s dive in.
Dear Diary,
“My husband gave me something I can’t get rid of. I’ve known for about a year but I still find myself angry and heartbroken. He purposely withheld information from me because he was ‘scared to lose me.’ It put me in a state of depression and doubt. I can’t seem to shake it. I just want to be happy and loved. I feel so disgusted by him because he continues to treat me poorly after finding out. He’s never treated me right, and it’s because of his upbringing. I went into this marriage because of potential and lies. All in all, I’m hurt and I just want to be loved. I don’t necessarily want advice, just wanted to get this off my chest…”

NOW SIS, you should be treated like a plantain. A golden ripe plantain. 🍌
If you’re Caribbean, you know exactly how cherished a nicely fried golden plantain is. It’s nurtured, watched carefully, given the love and attention it deserves. That plantain gets the perfect balance of attention and care—and in return, it gives back perfect sweetness and crispiness.
You deserve the same treatment.
Nah. I know you’re just getting things off your chest, but I’m angry for you! You deserve to be handled with care. To be loved the right way—not with lies, not with fear, and definitely not with that kind of hurt. You deserve someone who sees your value, who nurtures it, and who takes time to truly know you—not someone who treats you like an afterthought.
What he’s doing, sis? That’s not love.
Love doesn’t put you in a state of doubt.
Love doesn’t withhold the truth.
Love doesn’t make you feel less than what you are.
He didn’t treat you right from the start, and it sounds like you’ve been waiting for him to change. But here’s the thing—he’s not.
He’s showing you who he is, and it’s time to look at that for what it really is.
And I get it. It hurts. Deeply. But pain like this can also be a mirror—and a push. A push to turn that love inward. To remember that you are still in there. The version of you that laughed harder, that dreamed bigger, that loved freely before life and lies tried to dim her.
So let’s start there.
Date yourself.
Wake up and pour into you.
Take yourself out—buy that scent you love, dress up for no reason, flirt with your own reflection.
Remind yourself of how good it feels to choose you.
Because sis… you are still here. You are not broken. You are becoming. And that’s a beautiful thing.
Take that space to care for yourself like that golden plantain. You deserve joy, peace, and someone who can appreciate all the sweetness you bring to the table. But for now, let that someone be you.
Love starts with you, sis.
You’re worth the kind of love that feels like home.
And if you ever need to get these feelings off your chest, this space is always here for you.
Sometimes the release is the first step toward healing.
You’re seen. You’re heard. And you are SO deeply loved. 💛
