For my new Roses, “Rose Letters” are confessions submitted to raven@ravenrosado.com and posted here anonymously. Come get some things off of your chest. This is a safe space.
1. I accidentally ran over my neighbor's cat. Then I helped them look for it.
2. I only committed to my last relationship because the building I was staying in was raising the rent. I told shorty I loved her and thought we should move in. Once I got my money up I acted like everything she did bothered me. She was cool, I just wanted my old life back.
3. I dated my best friend's step-father. It's over now so even though I feel a little guilty, don't see the point of bringing it up now.
4. I only offer to baby-sit so that I can make my siblings do my chores.
5. I know my mom is cheating on my dad but I'ma just mind my business. He ain't shit as far as a husband anyway. He lays around, yells at us, and he never has pants on. It's not right but I don't blame her. She looks happier now too.
6. I hate being a parent. My kids suck, Is that bad?
7. My uncle is on the run but he owes me money and refuses to pay me back. Should I snitch?
8. This girl I used to date was soooo fuckinnnn clingyyy. She was fine, smelled good, and smart so Idk why she was so thirsty. Didn't have to be. That's what turned me off to her. I would tell her exactly how I feel but she just wasn't gettin it so I ghosted. One night she called me like 4 times and was blowing up my text messages. One of the last messages said "I'm on my way". I'm like, hell naw, let me call this girl. She tweakin. So I call her and said "Don't come to my house. I'm chillin' and my people are tryna sleep. You're doin entirely too much." Then she starts yellin and sayin that she can't take not hearing from me anymore and we gotta fix this and woo woo woo. She said she was nothing without me and will kill herself if I walk out of her life. I said "Bitch I've known you for 3 months." then hung up the phone.....tell me why this girl actually did it. I regret not taking what she was saying more seriously. I didn't go to the funeral cause I felt guilty and wondered if anyone knew the details.
9. My mom is a principal and be going to work high as fuck but gets mad at me for saying "no problem" instead of "thank you." Ummm, who is really the problem here?
10. I hate visiting my grandparents. They look so wrinkly and sad. Their house smells like wood and they don't have wifi. I don't like to eat there either.
11. I got more bodies than my friends who go out all the time but dudes look down on them and think I'm somehow better cause I don't go out. I think that's so funny
12. I told people I was studying over-seas for a month but I was really in rehab.
13. I always had horrible skin. I used to get made fun of so bad because of it. My biggest crush told me that my face looks like cheetah print. I tried EVERYTHING to get rid of it. I drink a lot of water, eat healthy, bought every kind of face mask and was even given a prescription. After crying so much and doing so much research, I found this method...it involves urine. I was desperate and tried it. Within 6 months my acne was completely gone. So many people reached out and asked me how I did it. I don't have the guts to tell them I've been putting urine on my face for months. I'm embarrassed but it worked.
14. My husband really wants kids and we were "trying" for over a year. He finally gave up. He seems so depressed because he thinks there's either something wrong with him or me. I feel guilty but all this time, I was secretly taking my birth control. I don't want kids right now because I really want to focus on my career and the pregnant chick is not about to get promoted. At least not at my male-dominated company.
