A couple weekends ago Ms. Rihanna and that mouth of hers almost caused a backlash from her fans on Twitter when it was made known that Chris Brown follows her. Upon notice, she decided to follow him back. Shortly after the Rihanna Navy went into full blown lunacy. Rihanna being Rihanna retaliated only to later apologize for her actions.
“@iStan4Rihanna_ its f*&#”in twitter, not the alter! calm down,” Rihanna tweeted. Shortly after the singer backtracked on her aggressive comments.
“@iStan4Rihanna_ babygirl I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt or offend u! Just needed to make it clear to the Navy! I still Stan for u xoxo.”
Look people, are we really expecting her to hate this man’s guts for the rest of her life? It has been two years. I understand that he physically abused her and domestic violence is a serious thing, which is why I would never suggest that she dated him again. However, if she hates him for the rest of her life, would she be healing from the situation? Even if she never dates him again in her life, that does not mean that she has to despise his very existence. This seems to be the way fans and other people respond whenever their names are brought up in the same instance. It is apparent that this woman has healed or at least is attempting to heal from the situation. Allow her to complete the process. I know that fans thought that they were having her back but really they are stalling her healing process and being quite selfish about the entire situation.
Realistically speaking would her carrying around that much disdain for an ex be at all healthy for her? Would she truly be moving on if she spent the rest of her life attempting to avoid him, knowing that they work in the same industry and are bound to have their paths cross? I will answer that for you folks. No. In fact as much ish as I talk about women standing up for themselves and demanding the best from the men that they deal with, I would never suggest that any woman carry a life long grudge against any man that she dated. You don’t have to be friends with him, or still love them, but you devoting energy into hating him can be equally damaging to one’s inner peace. It would be like allowing him to rape you of your energy. It would be like allowing that situation with that person to slowly devour your soul. I think it is a selfish request for her fans to expect her to obsessively dislike Brown for the rest of her life. If she has managed to move on and make peace with the situation then so should the public.
What do you think? If an ex did something horrible to you, would you be able to eventually forgive him and release any animosity towards them?

Rihanna has moved on from the infamous Chris Brown fiasco, and it’s time for her fans to do the same. The 2009 assault was a defining moment in both of their careers and overshadowed much of Rihanna’s work in recent years. But with her new single “Work” captivating audiences around the world, it appears she is ready to put that part of her life behind her. This article will explore why it’s important for Rihanna’s fans to let go of this chapter as well and focus on her current success.
The music industry can be unforgiving, especially when it comes to high-profile relationships between artists. To make matters worse, many have been quick to judge Rihanna over what happened between them – but now we are seeing an entirely different side of her career. She rose above all the negative press by staying true to herself and making great strides within the industry. Her recent accomplishments only prove how determined she is to stay relevant in today’s competitive market.
With such positive energy surrounding her latest release, there is no better time than now for people to move past this incident so they can appreciate everything else Rihanna has going on right now: powerful messages, an amazing stage presence, evolution through fashion trends — she truly embodies modern day artistry at its finest. It’s clear that despite any setbacks or difficulties along the way, Rihanna refuses to be defined by one particular event in history; instead she recognizes each challenge presents opportunities for growth and self-reflection — something we should all strive towards doing ourselves!
Understanding The History
The Chris Brown and Rihanna incident of 2009 has been a defining moment in both artist’s careers. Despite the fact that they have since rekindled their relationship, it is important to recognize how much hurt was caused during this tumultuous time in their lives. It is understandable why fans would still be reeling from what took place between them over a decade ago; however, it is also important to remember that there are lessons to be learned from this experience.
Firstly, domestic violence should never be taken lightly or normalized. While we cannot change the past, if anything can come out of this situation it should be an awareness about the magnitude of such acts and how damaging they can be for all involved. Learning from mistakes is key and recognizing when certain behaviors are not acceptable is essential for creating healthy relationships with those around us.
Secondly, forgiveness must always be part of any reconciliation process. After so much pain was inflicted by both members of the couple, forgiving each other was undoubtedly necessary in order for true healing to take place. This does not mean condoning any type of abuse; rather, it means taking responsibility and moving forward together despite negative experiences shared in the past.
Ultimately, everyone deserves a chance at happiness – including these two artists who have gone through so much together already. Although things may never go back to how they were before this tragic event occurred, understanding its implications and working towards individual growth as well as mutual respect can help ensure that neither person ever finds themselves in a similar situation again.
Moving Forward With Compassion
Ultimately, it is important for Rihanna and Chris Brown’s fans to move forward with compassion. While the situation between them was undeniably difficult, it has been over a decade since it occurred and both artists have clearly worked to heal from this painful chapter in their lives. The best way to show support at this time is by recognizing how much they have grown since then, understanding that mistakes can be made and learning from them, and respecting the decision of each individual in respect to what happens next.
In addition, we must also recognize our own role in all of this as well: It is easy to become wrapped up in celebrity drama without taking into account the reality of the situation or considering its long-term implications. Fans should remember that there are two human beings behind all headlines – people who deserve love, forgiveness, and healing just like anyone else does. This means being mindful about how we interact with these celebrities online and ensuring that our expressions of opinion remain respectful despite any disagreements one might have with either artist’s choices.
Allowing space for growth and reconciliation is part of life; not only for ourselves but for those around us too. Moving forward with an open heart and mind will ultimately ensure that everyone involved receives the same chance at happiness – something which no one ever deserves to be denied.
Conclusion
In conclusion, it’s clear that the Rihanna and Chris Brown fiasco is something that shouldn’t be taken lightly. It has been a decade since this incident occurred, but it still leaves so many of us with mixed feelings. While we may never know what actually happened between them on that fateful night, one thing remains certain: violence against women should never be tolerated in any form or manner.
It’s time to move forward and put this pain aside. We can do so by recognizing the trauma experienced by both parties involved, and also showing compassion for their struggles over the years. By doing this, we can create an environment where all individuals are respected regardless of gender identity or past relationships. Furthermore, we can use our understanding of these events to educate others about feminism and promote healthy relationships within society as a whole.
The past cannot be changed, however how we choose to view it now determines how much progress will be made in the future. Let’s strive towards understanding each other better rather than judging those who have had difficult experiences in life. As fans of Rihanna, let’s show her support by respecting her decisions and being open-minded when discussing such topics—even if they’re uncomfortable ones.
