I believe the abuse happened too. And in some ways it took a lot of courage for her to write about their relationship. I say this because her book not only detailed how horribly she was treated by a man she loved,but her own short comings and williness to be treated like dirt. This woman wrote about the fact that she had no problem dating,living with and having a child by a married man. A man who did not divorce his wife that he cheated on to marry her. The fact that her "soul mate" (her words) left her pregnant to have a very public realtionship with and later become engaged to another woman while she was struggling and in need of help. She talks about parking in his drive way,hoping he would notice her. showing up at the apartment "pregnant" that he shared with another woman,only to be dismissed. Attempting suicide,and having her one true love say once he was notified that the police should have been called instead of him. Finding love letters and other rememberences he kept from another woman even after she had died. His marrying yet another woman,and her befriending her just to try to stay in the picture. Berating Sandra Ruffin, becuase Sandra wanted to save her Marriage. Berating TT because she had the love of the man she wanted so badly. Berating Jimmy Ruffin because he told her on more than one occassion that David didn't love her. Berating Debbie Rhone,because once again David chose another woman over her. Berating Diane Showers for the same reasons. And the list goes on. She revealed a great deal about herself in this book,however there did not seem to be any thing resembling a "mutual" love affair. In the end she revealed much more about herself when she took the man's last name and called it an "adoption". Wonder how well that sat with "real" Ruffins??? I beleive her supporters or fans if you will are people that knew nothing about David Ruffin outside of the mini series, that's why many actually refer to her as his wife. Because if you notice NO ONE that actually knew David Ruffin has come out in support of her or her book.

trisha posted I believe your story would be encouraging to anyone who was going through such events and could not see the light at the end of the dark tunnel.Just when I was about to say drex aka trisha has finally said something that makes sense. I read this: You story would be even more interesting because your life's experience include David Ruffin.HOW would her life's experience be more encouraging,because she suffered abuse at the hands of a celebrity? Victims of abuse share a common bond,in that they all are victims of abuse. What possible difference does it make if you're abused by Joe Blow, a Relative or a David Ruffin? Tina Turner is a musical icon that was abused. What makes her story encouraging is the fact that "she" went on in spite of the abuse and made a successful life for herself. The abuse and the abuser are less important to victims of abuse,what they need to be encouraged by is the ability to continue on inspite of it, and be lectured by one that has done so. I'm most surprised that drex aka trisha is offereing to help genna period. Maybe she's had a change of heart after posting the things she did about her. Wasn't it trisha that posted in so many words that genna was a "moocher"? Because when they went out to eat genna always left her purse. But wait...If trisha is willing to help genna get her story of abuse out then who is going to help jody dispel the lies?

P.S. to everyone who hated on the book..... get a life and go to hellGet a life and go to hell.... why are you telling us that we did not tell DER to pimp slap you around that little apartment....we did not send you to the welfare office....we did not ask DE to buy little Jr's pair of shoes...how low!....we did not tell you to stand on tables shaking your butt in front of strangers.....More importantly, we did not advise you to take DER's last name.. the man you claim abuse you which I don't believe he did... he probably told your crazy azz a thousand times to leave him alone...but nooo you had to hang around thinking he was going to do the right thing.. You knew the man did not want you from the get go so why call wolf after his death?... Lady you receive what you put into your own life which was nothing... it is not our fault you mess up your life... if you had a brain, you should have went back to school after the first slap instead of chasing DER around the country... You probably be able to pay the rent instead selling shoes, slippers, and cigar butts on Ebay! You Big Dummy !

Drex can't get an interview with DER's best friend Reggie how in the hell is she going to get Genna's book publish? Earth to Genna.... Earth to Genna..maybe I should say Mars to Genna... Mars to Genna... Lady, Drex doesn't have any connection she's only trying to be your friend because Jody is getting on her nerves about those 3 stories.... Stop playing the fool Genna... Did you get enough when DER was alived stringing you alone saying "Someday We Are Going To Be Together"....some day would never came... Leave Drex alone all she wants someone to cuss you out about that book... she knows no one is going publish it I don't know why she is doing this to because it is never going to come to fruition... if it was Genna, someone will be in jail for the murder of DER...right Drex..

The cocktail dancer berated who... see this when I would've kick her hillbilly ass back to Montana or whatever hell she was from. Genna and I would've went blow to blow every night... Damn I wish I was one of DER's children... that "hoe" would've gotten a beat down at the funeral... The way she talk about my mother I would've slapped all teeth out of her mouth.. Police would've taken to me to jail instead of EJK...

How you gonna tell us to 'get a life and go to hell' when this woman spent her entire life trying to prove how important she was to a celebrity??? She wrote this because she wanted to make a dollar and for folks who spent their HARD EARNED MONEY (you know, like going to work & getting a CHECK instead of relying on the 'gubermint' for handouts!!!) buying this so-called 'book', shouldn't comment on it. From what she wrote in her own words, it didn't sound like she had much of a 'life' to me. Perhaps she is the one whom the comment should be directed to.

Perhaps she is the one whom the comment should be directed to. yes Common i agree, that comment was very presumptuous..but for me personally i dont even think twice about the nitwit that made the comment. this person doesn't know the HAPs if you will lol ,the REALITY of it all..this is comical. all that is, is someone trying to get in close to a person, that they THINK knows something about David Ruffin. its sad ,Genna should really stop trying to fool people and herself.
