this song is for those who are in a relationship and doing right and the other person does not appreciate them. so take it to heart and find happiness in yourself
so much emotion i love this song, i dont want to be with someone who is abusive or someone who keeps hurting me, verbally or physically. cause then as the song says i wont be happy!! so i agree, i rather be alone, even thou alone STINKS!!!!
No woman deserves to be abused. But respectfully, sometimes a woman needs to use her head and take some responsibility. NEVER PROVOKE A VIOLENT MAN! Let your feet do the walking instead of your mouth doing the talking.
Touching video :( Ladies plz don't be a fool for any man like those, I'm begging you. You deserve better and please realize it, you only have one life.
Radio slept on this CD. It was Brilliant -"Make Him Do Right"...She out did herself on that CD. Every song should have been a hit, that's how good that CD was in my opinion. But, then, this was the early nineties and radio had no idea where music was going...there was so many different sounds back then, music got lost and was trying to find it's way back. And, now it's like the 90's repeating itself in the 21st century except it's worse, with a few exceptions...
I just discovered this song a year ago. Karyn had to much competition for her to really stand out. Though she had her share of hits, but being a Black Female Singer is really tough, you got sing ballads, then hit right back with a dance song.
Only a person who has been in this position can understand. Men don't start acting like this, not until you fall in love and feel connected to them. Then it is like the tilt-a-whirl you cant get off of.
My theme song!! I kicked my boyfriend to the curb 4 actin like he's walking on 4 legs (a dog). This song reminds me that i'v made a damn good decision 4 myself.
This should be the theme song for all of the PEOPLE who have been through some tough love for all time..I realized that Id rather be alone with a puppy and a ball than to be hit on
i love this song i have been listening to it since i was 10 years old and it's the best song for when you realize that ur better off by yourself and wit some lame ass nigga.
I was in an abusive relationship years ago and I had my bad days and good days but I learned that if the bad days out weigh my good days than it's always best to be alone.But I never regretted nothing that I went through because it was a learning experience and I know better now.This songs is an eye opener for every woman that has been or being abuse by the one they think they LOVE...............
this is a amazing song i want to hear it all yhe time and iam learning to live by it day by day cause truleyif i cannot be happy with yhe one i love i dont want anything i just want to give it up
A large group of women stay with men because of what they've experienced themselves growing up. Whether it was a father who wasn't there or one who was who was ineffective (many meanings behind that). A self-esteem issue plays a major role. Seems easy for them to walk away but it isn't because these men ALSO make them feel wanted when they are at their best. These men end up being both their joys and their sorrows. Physical, emotional and financial abuse are the main culprits. All with scars!
When we talk about abuse it could be both ways most suffer from pyshical abuse and many from mental and emotional why do we stay? because we say we love them they might change but what we fail to relize is that if they did love you they wont hurt you maybe there not shure about themselves.
True. I just got out of an abusive relationship. I didn't stay with him long. That's all it took, is to hit me just that one time and it was just misunderstand after that. Some females think that if he hits her, he loves her. My daddy never hit me in my life time and I'll push flowers before I let another man put his hands on me. We'll have nothing but misunderstanding. If you get what I'm saying.
you can do bad by yourself,and i rather be alone than unhappy,but it;s a lonely road.i have did that and been there!karen white sangs it best in this here video.you go girl!
We had our first argument last night, and he said a lot of cruel things that really hurt me. I know he is sorry and didn't mean the things he said, because he sent me flowers today. I got flowers today.
It wasn't our anniversary or any other special day.
Last night he threw me into a wall and started to choke me. It seemed like a nightmare, I couldn't believe it was real.
I woke up this morning sore and bruised all over. I know he must be sorry cause he sent me flowers today.
I got flowers today, and it wasn't mother's day or any other special day.
Last night, he beat me up again, it was much worse than all the other times. If I leave him, what will I do? How will I take care of my kids? What about money?
I'm afraid of him and scared to leave. But I know he must be sorry because he sent me flowers today.
I got flowers today. Today was a very special day. It was the day of my funeral!
Last night, he finally killed me. He beat me to death. If only I had gathered enough courage to leave him, I would not have gotten flowers today.......
If you are against domestic abuse, please pass this along to everyone,
I love this song! It kinda feels like what im going through at this very moment! Karyn White has a beautiful voice and i would listen to her songs any day
my mum used 2 listen 2 karyn white on a regs think it was a depression thing, but the woman brought out some strong tunes only made ma mama stronger she came out tha other end anywayz bless mama xx
I love me some Karyn White. I remember hearing this song as a child. It used to play on the radio everyday. I was so diappointed that the singles and album did not do as well ai it should, becuz all the songs are great and Karyn put her heart in all of them. I bought it twice and still don't have a copy, guess I have to buy it a third time As it worth every penny!!!
Unfortunately she's not with the team she had before. I did notice that her new greatest hits album was released by shout records a subsidary of Warner Bros. which also contains two new tracks, All I do, and Disconnected
i had been trying looking for thid song and i couldn't remember the name of it. i love this song especially now because of the situation that im going through.
This is my favorite video and song ever!!! i've loved it since i was a child and there's just been nothing better lyrically or in depth since this Karyn White for me...Where are you Karyn? 'three liner' R&B 'hits'are killing us!!
as a gay male i totally relate to this song, not physical abuse, thank GOD. but emotionally stress out. this is my theme song, I'D RATHER BE ALONE THAN BE UNHAPPY. LARYN WHITE WE NEED YOU COME BACK OUT AND SHOW THESE AMMITURES HOW ITS REALLY DONE!
this song is for those who are in a relationship and doing right and the other person does not appreciate them. so take it to heart and find happiness in yourself

Why do women stay with men who abuse them? I figure if he abuses you then move on bcuz there is no love there.
