Serena Williams Blog Breakup; Serena Williams Breakup Blog

Serena Williams has poured out her heart on the break up of her relationship in
an emotional 600-word account on her official website. Serena reveals how she fell in love only to have her heart broken when her boyfriend (Common or Jackie Long?) stopped calling and finally told her he ‘needed space.’
In a blog headlined ‘Stand In These Shoes (I’m sure u have before)’, Serena wrote:
“You can’t stand being without each other”, she wrote. “You start to feel like you have never felt before, and you do things for him you have never done before.”
“He tells you he adores you. He tells you u guys were meant for each other. You care for him. You are falling for him.”
“You take things slow. You don’t want to make any mistakes. You are feeling this and you feel this could mean forever.”
You ask him "are we moving too fast"? He replies "We are just following our hearts." You start to trust him. Something you have not done since your first heart break. How long ago was that? You wonder. Trust is something you vowed you would never do again. But slowly your heart comes out of its steel enclosure. You feel like you can trust him. You feel as if everything you went though was for a reason. And the reason was to meet him. Days turns into weeks. And he tells you about the connection you guys have in each others hearts. Weeks turns into months and you slowly start to wean the other guys in your life out. And than it happens. No not the "L" word. But what you have been most afraid of. What deep in your heart you have been afraid to confront. What you always suspected would happen one day sooner or later. HE STOPS CALLING. You panic. But you try to stay calm. He did this before when you first started talking, but u tried to forget it. You knew u should have not forgotten. But u tried to ignore it. He disappears for a week with no phone call. No answer to yours no nothing. Finally you hear from him. You want to rage you want to scream you want to cry. But you can't help you heart from feeling a tad bit happy. As you begin to ask him what happened he stops you. He says "I need space". You cringe at these words. This is the very reason you begin to think why your heart was in that steel enclosure. The reason you don't put your emotions your feelings, your heart into it. Because one day it always turns in to this day. But you are already too far out you are at the point of no return, you can't come back. You can't believe, although a piece of you does believe it. Space. How many time have you heard this before? Space? Wasn't you giving him enough? Space. Hummm you laugh because its so ridiculous. You laugh because again u knew this day would come. Why did you not listen to that little voice inside your hear telling you to "watch out". "Be careful". You laugh only because tears won't come. You know its not you, but u cant help but look at that man in the mirror. You can't help but pick yourself apart. Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? And again and again you can't come up with the answer. Slowly as you try to focus on other things and think of other people you put you heart back into that steel case. Tears finally come and they make you feel a little better, but the pain is piercing through your soul. The pain never hurts as bad as the first time. . But all the same you can't help but feel hopeless, foolish. Your great chance to be with your soul mate has again somehow slipped and failed. But eventually you know you will pick yourself up. Eventually you know you will try again. And eventually you know you will find the keys to you heart, but also in the back of your mind you think.... Will it happen again.

Look at it this way…this too shall pass. God does not put us through things if we can not handle them. He teaches us everyday and yes it is going to hurt. But keep in mind you do not know where life is going to take you in your near future. All I can say is that ONE person is out there for you and you don’t even know who it is. Believe it or not it could possibly be someone in your past or your future. But you have to have FAITH in GOD and he will not lead you wrong. Take care and continue to suceed. Much love. I’ve been there and still going through it. We as women are very STRONG! We can get through anything and this is one you can get through. GOD BLESS!

Ana Ivanovic is the best looking tennis player ever. To me ana and jelena jankovic are the best players ever to play tennis. Not ugly venus and serena.

Serena and Venus are two of the greatest athletic in sports I have ever seen, lots of young people are jealous of them because they seldom get beat in the sport of their choice, Keep up the good work ladies, and continue to hold your heads high.

Serena and Venus are beautiful black women and they are the best female tennis players ever. You do not have to look like you are white to be beautiful. I am so proud of them and what they represent. I walk around with my head held high because of the Williams’ sisters and of course Obama and the other great African American who all “say yes we can”. Serena hang in there, when thing go wrong I alway say there must be something better for me and guess what there always is.

It is “DESTINY” that makes People find their “Soul Mate” !….. I think we have no
control…! Nevertheless if we follow our
heart and soul in the end we will meet
the “Right Person” even if it would go
against our best judgment. Let us all
keep in mind, though, that appearance
can be and often is ”DECEIVING” !!!

i wonder if he found out she may have an XY chromosome and her testosterone was way over the top. hay what the hell as they say.. ” You can take the person out of the Ghetto but you can’t take the Ghetto out of the person”..
and if serena was the line judge and and the player was white we would be hearing a bunch of racial crap every where right now and the punishment would much more severe for the outburst if it was white on black actually any race on black. special treatment…

I don’t know, she is the example of everything wrong in our me-me-me culture. I love the old world Asian women, at all costs they bow and respect the wisdom of the spirit first, before saying a word of disagreement. Serena doesn’t have a clue what this is or that it even exists, it’s her world and we share it. RESPECT, simple Respect. Respect for elders first always, and then respect for others. I love Venus, she’s aware of these principles. I give money grubbing Serena a big OINK, OINK…..

It hurts to know Serena is hurt by a guy who does not worth a farthing. i have always desired for an opportunity to give happiness to serena by taking her to a world she had never known before. I am big and strong with enough energy to compete with a stALLION. I think I am a perfect match for that perfect body. She has made some fortune no doubt but i am not interested in that. I need to talk to Serena directly. Can anybody connect me? I am hurting so bad.
