Karrueche Shares Emotions About The Relationship She Had With Chris Brown Talking to Iyanla
“I’m very relatable”, Karrueche says, as she wipes the tears from her face.
I’ve been meaning to blog about the whole ‘Chris Brown and Karrueche’ situation for a while but, after Iyanla interviewed the singer/rapper’s ex-girlfriend, I finally thought I’ve got to weigh in on this situation personally. If you don’t know the story already, the two split up for the 278862897494th time after Karrueche found out through TMZ that Chris had a secret 9 month old love child. Read more on that story HERE.
I witnessed so many people share the same thoughts Karrueche did, identifying with Karrueche’s feelings having once shared the same experience she has been in and out of for four years. And it’s this seemingly never-ending narrative whereby someone keeps returning to a lover repeatedly after being hurt one too many times because, as we know, love does some pretty fucked up things if you allow it to.
Iyanla started the interview with Karrueche like a mother giving a daughter some advice and, quite frankly, kept cutting her off annoyingly. At a later stage, it seemed like a bit of an ambush, “He loved your heart but he broke your heart”, Iyanla states. A line she quite clearly needed to hear, but after how many times? I mean, she has friends right….?
There’s no doubt in my mind that we have all returned to an ex who has hurt us in the past. Yes, second chances exist, but what about public embarrassment and humiliation? Why are we not creating boundaries instead of becoming more accepting of bullsh*t only to justify it with love? ‘Love’, a phrase Karrueche used often when asked if she’d go back to Christopher Brown. When someone loves you but hurts you repeatedly, is it not fair to call them a liar?
What she did own up to was her nature to run to social media every time she had a falling out with Chris, something so many people are still doing in 2015. Twitter, Facebook and Instagram is the last place you want to share your drama. Why on earth would you want to give strangers ammo to hurl at you? I always advise women to stay away from indirecting/tweeting relatable crap song lyrics after they have had a rough patch or an argument.
Karrueche is quite clearly a sweet and beautiful girl, and there is no doubt in my mind that she can’t scoop a new guy that will treat her right. I do believe that, due to her relationship being so heavily publicised within the media, we were able to see something so many other women are going through even to furthest extent. The real question is, when is enough enough?
