Copa: Just tell us how you feel at this point .
Sabrina: Prior to this relationship I was really a happy person. I'm a single Mom. I work hard for me and my daughter. Everything I do is for her, I didn't need any man to bring me any happiness. I didn't need a man to take the trash out and pay my bills. I've had cars, houses and everything else that anyone would wish to have. I had to work hard for my daughter because she didn't have anyone else to fall back on. Anyone that I bring in my life should be an addition to what I have, not enter and try to screw my stuff up. When that happens I feel as if I'm being taken advantage of.
I worked hard for my great credit score and other things that I've acquired in the past years. To have someone to come into my life and attempt to take all of that away from me really pisses me off to a great degree. The reason I made that initial post on social media 'Relationships 101' I refuse to be that woman of shame thinking about what people will saying about me or looking at me. "Don't be messy, don't air your dirty laundry." I can be messy all I want, who are you to tell me. This is my laundry, I can do what I want. I'm not ashamed, I'm a strong Black confident woman, I knew what I brought to the table. The reason I did it was because so many women I knew would not have done it. So I'm going to be their voice. It's not just me, it's so many women that go through this mess every day and we never hear about it. The victim usually has to deal with this shit in private while the other person continues to live in the this fabulous public life. That's not me, I'm not her!

Copa: Do you feel as if you have a sense of more control of your life now?
Sabrina: First, I would like to say that this is not relieving, with me placing the post 'Relationships' 101' up earlier and speaking about this. I feel as if I need to educate and inform other individuals that it's okay to speak your mind on a subject such as this, I'm still dealing with the pain.
When I did come out on social media my phone and inbox just blew up with messages. This doesn't only happen to women, it happens with men too. It makes me feel better when others share their experiences with me. Men and women go through these things with each other constantly. I feel that I succeeded what I accomplished by posting 'Relationships 101' on my Facebook page after I ended the relationship.
When you wake up every morning with this individual and find out that there's someone completely different you really become extremely confused. You deal with the excitement, the emotions, and then you have to deal with all of this bullshit afterwards.
