    Articles by Deborrah Cooper
    dcooperdone.gif

    Deborrah Cooper (writing under the pen name Ms. HeartBeat) has provided witty, insightful, no nonsense advice and information on creating more rewarding romantic relationships both on and offline for more than 15 years.

    When AskHeartBeat.Com launched in December 1997, Ms. Cooper was quoted as saying "I firmly believe that many of the ills suffered by the Black community are the direct result of destructive relationships and making bad choices with respect to partners. These problems can be solved only when we acquire the skills necessary to select partners that are truly right for us. We must also learn to resolve conflicts in mutually beneficial, growth-oriented ways. The goal for the Ask HeartBeat!™ site is to help my brothers and sisters find solutions, and make the love they seek a reality."

    If you have suggestions for an topic that you would like to see addressed as an article on AskHeartBeat.Com, please submit it via the Contact Us link above.
