Happy Humpty Hump Day Everybody!!!!

Wise I like this……….tell the dayum truth!!!! It’s just that simple. Why most people (esp. men, lol) don’t? Because they know if they did, they would not get the same results (or what they really want) out of a person/situation. So “lie to get __, it’s all a part of the game”, is a lot of folks mentality! And its just sad! I like this too…None of us are dating each other (I don’t think?) HAHAHAHAHAHA!! That’s funny!!! lol

GoodMorning Er’body. whats up SexiOne, SlimOne, MsU, and QC

Wise Diva For instance, I want to know how men decide that they want a meaningful connection with a woman, instead of booty calls? Is it about the attraction, timing, blood alcohol level? i dont go out to meet a female with the thoughts of a long term relationship in mind. i just stay open-minded. if im dating a female and i just feel that connection and feel like i can have something with her then ill give it a shot, if not then it just is what it is.

SexiOne I like this……….tell the dayum truth!!!! It’s just that simple. Why most people (esp. men, lol) don’t? now you know its too early in the morning to start male bashing. and you also know that women lie a helluva lot more, and better, than men do. a woman can tell a man a lie with a straight face like its nothing. and yall know when yall have told a good one because yall have that look on your face like, damn that was a good one, ima have to use that one again.

Good Morning, and a Happy Hump Day to all my Blog Family.

My favorite of liquid courage in the summer is Pina Colada with the Rum, and I’ve had about three. I’m a Gemini so here we go.
What do you do, hobbys, pasatiempos?
Do you practice abstinence and if not exactly how sexually experienced are you?
What is you family like, big, small, friendly, violent, etc.? Do you have a past criminal record, if so, what is it?
What made you consider asking me out?
I know I’m a little tipsy, but are you a Christian?
Do you have any children, anywhere?
Now realize I will answer these same questions about myself.

Personal and emotional compatibility, similar or complementary interests, pleasant and relatively drama-free company, physical attraction, sexual compatibility. I’m not so sure one can come up with a questionaire to spring on a date, especially early on, that will be very telling about what kind of person they really are. That’s something you have to discover over time. Consider whether that person is God’s provision for you.

I think it’s all in the flow of the conversation. My response to such questions would be: I enjoy having parties, doing community service, and traveling. I do you practice abstinence and, I’ve had some sexual experience. My family is big, extremely friendly, and can become violent if provoked. No, I don’t have a past criminal record. I decided to say yes to your invitation because… I am a Christian, not perfect, so I do have a drink or two, I can hold my coladas. No children, no where.

I would rather be in a “real meaningful relationship in which money was not as abundant.took both incomes to make.u lived in an average size house..2 hondas..2 kids..” I say this because I was raised the quality is better than quantity. So if the means I have to contribute to the household and not necessarily live the high life, I am okay if that means I am loved and I love the one I am with.

August 1, 2007 9:43 AM | Link to this

Good morning all.

I have to agree with Musing. To some extent it is good to have some mystery.

As far as deciding the difference between a booty call and wife (I am married), it was when I went started talking to my wife without any expectations that I found someone that I felt that I could spend the rest of my life with. I just thinks that comes with maturity and being comfortable with you own strengths and weaknesses.

Telling the truth goes both ways, females have to be truthful with themselves as well. Pushup bras, fake eyelashes, and just make-up in general are cover-ups of the real you (both physically and in other ways as well). A lie is still a lie. Why not be proud of what good gave ya? I understand some foundation and such but some women put on full faces.

I wanted my wife to have the same face when we wake up that she has out and about. That’s what I got.

Think about this…why are there panties that have padding to make a females booty look bigger? lol

Merning ya’all! Guys, what could you tell the ladies about what really matters and what doesn’t in dating? which side of town u live,do u swing,how many tatoos u got,what do u like to do on the regular,you got a job, how many kids u got….?

What preceded this wasme observing how i like her azz and body and the way she walks. Now after asking those questions, i am making a determination of whether this is a hook up girl or a serious date.. and that determines what i am gonna tell her…50 percent of the truth(and not disclose the rest) or some contrived info to get her toes curly!! For a serious date, the other 50 percent of the truth will follow with time.

By Cemeeli

August 1, 2007 9:47 AM | Link to this

Proofreading Sean, That’s allright. But to answer your questions:

Would u rather be in a real meaningful relationship in which money was not as abundant or would u rather be in something where the man took care of all the bills? Actually the meaningful realtionship gets my vote. B/C a man taking care of all the bills is not what i have ever seeked for in a SO nor do i think i want…there goes that independant woman stuff. Dang what’s wrong with me?

By Sexione

August 1, 2007 9:50 AM | Link to this

SJ I’ll take the first one (real meaningful relationship with minimal $$) any day! With the right person, all of that other stuff is just that, “stuff”.

Something men should know about me…

Don’t lie to me. I will respect you much more if you’re honest. I don’t buy into the “double standard” or the “numbers game”, if you’re looking for your inferior match or looking to play around, go for it, but you won’t do it with me. I am a single mommie, and my child comes first. No, you can’t meet her, hang out at the house around her, or take “us” out until you’ve proven your worth. Again, I’m a single mommie, so don’t ask me to do anything that would go against my mommie persona/mindset! And definitely don’t ask me to do anything for you that you wouldn’t do for me!

Slim gurl, you are a mess!!!! grabbing that mans crotch!!! lol

By Deeva4Life

August 1, 2007 9:52 AM | Link to this

SeanJohnson3000 to answer your question…I’d take the meaningful relationship any day over the stuff. I think we all like nice things and for the most part we’d all like the finer things in live but true love and companionship has no price tag on it. One thing about it, when you’re building something together then you feel like you’ve contributed and can bask in the fruits of both parties labor. However, if he has everything and he’s not really into me or vice versa then I have to live with the thought that “HE” accomplished these things therefore this little fantasy world belongs to him. Lastly, when you have love, devotion and true committment in a relationship there really isn’t anything you two can’t have if you work together. You can have the crib, the car, the vacations…whatever. It may take time but it’s attainable.

Good morning Everyone!

What would happen if we all just put all our cards out on the table? Or, why do people have difficulty putting their cards on the table? Why is it easier to lie or withhold important facts about oneself? Granted, you do not need to tell everything at once, but there should be no hidden agendas. If you know what you want (or don’t want) in a relationship or in dating, why not share those things with the other person? If you want to play, fine…find a playmate. It is best to let the other person make his or her own decisions.

Ladies, what would you want men to know about dating you? That I really am who I say I am. No pretense. My first thought is not whether he is marriage material. Just because I say, “yes, I would like to get married again someday” does not mean I want to marry you. I believe in enjoying the moment. Do not ask me what I really think if you do not want an honest answer. Every date does not have to cost $100 or more. There are many inexpensive ways to enjoy each other’s company. After all, we are only dating. A committed relationship takes it to a different level.

If slightly tipsy means I have had too much Pepsi or mango flavored tea, count me in!

Have a Powerful, Productive, Prosperous and Positive Day!!!

SeanJohnson I’ve been in a marriage that didn’t work before and although I’m not 40 and I have no children, I work two jobs and I’m going to school…I know what it feels like to be tired of working hard. However, being in a dead in relationship (and I’ve had my share of those) is mentally and emotionally draining. As Slim stated earlier, it would be nice to have both (love and financial security) but peace of mind is invaluable. So if I have to work hard physically to make sure I’m taken care of then so be it, but I’m not willing to compromise my body or my sanity just to have someone else stroke the bills. And regardless what she says no woman truly wants to share her man…no matter if he’s paying all the bills or not. That’s my .02.

By Cemeeli

@SeanJ - Please know that is just the hype of her ‘tired of working hard’sitchiation.

If she married said dude; ‘she wants some who can give her the world..’ and there is not anything meaningful with that. Positive she’d get ‘tired’ of that too. Some ppl say things that they think/will benifit to their current situation. I’m tired of driving myself to a-z but i’m not about to start walking. But you know…to each is own…i dunno.

SJ3000 to answer your question I want a mixture of both. But if I really had to choose, I would choose the latter of the 2…and before you jump down my throat, I have loved deeply and all I get is hurt. So I believe love is so overrated. I will just look fun & enjoyment more so than the emotional rollercoaster called love. On topic: I hate when you tell a guy that you are looking for a relationship and they feed you the okie doke to get what they want from you and then they change their story…”uh, I don’t rush into relationships. I take my time to get to know thw girl because I take relationships very seriously.” Dude…I said relationship, not marriage. It ain’t THAT serious. So my thing is just be honest. You want the benefits of a relationship but you won’t committ because basically you want the option to date other people. GREEDY & SELFISH is what I call it. Just be real and straight up about it. That is why I feel the way I feel about men and relationships in general.

Morning Folks!

This is a good topic today Wise. I don’t have any questions for the guys because to be honest, I’m tired of trying to figure men out. It is what it is and when mine comes along, I’ll know it.

As far as what I want men to believe about me - simply I say what I mean and I mean what I say - that is the main thing with me that guys just don’t get the first time around. Either that or they just like to challenge me.

SeanJ - I’ll take the first scenario without the kids.

SeanJohn Most women (99.98%) want it all and that’s the God given truth. My first marriage was exactly what you described. Meaningful and loving without the luxury of my not having to work to make ends meet. Although I knew my husband loved and cared for me and our son, that didn’t stop me from wanting all the other stuff. I didn’t sweat it but I did desire it. On any given day when asked you will get the response you have all gotten on here, but honestly most of us, IMO, wouldn’t want to not have the love and the materials all wrapped up into one.

I have a pretty good set up now but I still desire “things” that I know are just mere extras in our lives. But I am not one to spend on something just to say I have it.

But yeah I like having the meaningful above just having the other “stuff”.

SeanJ That woman’s response is possibly the result of one or two things, or both; (1) Her concept and expectations of love did not work the first time. (2) She probably did all of the hard work in the previous relationship/marriage. However, not all women think the same. Our responses to life experiences, what we are willing to grow, from is crucial.

I would like to know a womans history, I think the person who is going to end up being my wife is a person who has history and has experienced lifes good and bad times, I cant see myself being with a person that has been spoiled or spoon fed all her life, because when the bad times come in the relationship she will nut up and wont know how to handle herself or the relationship in hard times. On the other hand I dont want someone who has been struggling all her life and when we come up together she wont go nuts and mess up the credit buying things she has never had. @ Sean J I believe alot of women will choose the 400k crib and the benz lifestyle, but a few women will go for the happiness. what will happen if we put all the cards on the table? It will be alot of single women and men in Atlanta, the reason I say this is because If we knew a persons bad side and flaws before we got into a relationship we wouldnt be in that relationship, since we dont find out the flaws until we are 6 months to a year into the relationship we learn to accept it and deal with it. guys what would you tell a woman what matters and what dosent about dating What matters are the little things, Its more than just them in the relationship, As a couple we have to stay in OUR lane and not keep up with the jones, It wont take much to make a man happy. Just stop complaining all the time.

Morning All!!

SlimOne you are off da chain already!! LMAO!

SJ The answer to your question, the first guy. The second options leaves room for cheating b/c you would be so unhappy. No need to choose to be unhappy.

what I want a man I am dating to know about me: I am a parent & divorcee, very laid back, drama free, love to watch sports but also love to read, I love to dress up but I also love to chill in jeans and t-shirt, I am all about having a fun, and I have tons of family that I hang with on a regular….I think that takes care of most of it!!

Travis I would like to know a womans history, I think the person who is going to end up being my wife is a person who has history and has experienced lifes good and bad times, I cant see myself being with a person that has been spoiled or spoon fed all her life, because when the bad times come in the relationship she will nut up and wont know how to handle herself or the relationship in hard times. On the other hand I dont want someone who has been struggling all her life and when we come up together she wont go nuts and mess up the credit buying things she has never had.

I agree you 100%. I want a mate that has had their share of ups and downs so when we are good we are enjoying the good and when things are bad, we can still be strong and maintain.

What I want the men to know when they are dating? 1. Be yourself, don’t be something you are not. Because the BS will rise to the top.
2. Open car doors, doors and treat me with respect. Chivalry is not dead. It can get you a long way. 3. The little things count. Let a lady know you are thinking about her.

You can have all the material things in the world and still be unhappy. Love doesn’t hurt. If someone broke your heart they didn’t love you from the start that was lust. Once the lust is fulfill it leaves you high and dry. @SJ I think it wrong for a woman to think a man is gonna pay all of her bill that she made by herself. I got a friend like that she is bad with money and always talkin bout she need a man so he can help her pay her bill. Not? I don’t expect it and i don’t want it expected of me. What ever bill i have pior to meeting you i can handle. Whatever bills we make together we can handle them. We will support each other. I met two guys last week. Both were physical attractive-the only difference is that one tried to overly impress me(with lies) and it turn me off. The other one was straight up honest he wasn’t trying to impress me at all . i walk away having respect for dude #2 knowing he was being real and yes i added him as a friend i want to get to know better and hang out with.

Melo I don’t really time it. I just let it happen. Its sometimes been a month, 3 weeks, 2 months, etc…but a woman knows within the first 10 minutes whether she wants to do you or not. She may want to wait to get to know you…but on the lust factor, she knows straight off the base. But what gets me is a guy is such a horn dog that if you don’t give it to him he is like a dog in heat and he will go find it elsewhere. Now if you are giving him the companionship and the booty….what else does it take for a man to commit? I had that happen to me and then we ended…but now he is trying to worm his way back to me. I no longer want him. Once you hurt me I don’t forgive you. I don’t backtrack and I move on. My friends say he had that Upgrade Mentality (like we spoke of yesterday) now he sees the grass ain’t green at all (as was posted earlier). he wanted his option to date others…even though he claims he was not dating or messing with anyone else. Now he wants what he had but let go of. I refuse to Tango with Satan again! I am almost to the point of dogging men the way they dog women. I have done it before and I loved it. It felt like retribution. But it got old quickly.

Cards are revealed as needed, besides, lets be honest, you know what is going on from the get go.

Unless you are living a celibate lifestyle, evryone is a potential piece of azz (WLB, we know ya’ll think like this too), the interaction between the two decides whether the sex will actually happen, and whether you will want more from the person.

Gorilla, May I ask you when do you get tired of struggling? After you reach a certain age you should be a certain point in your life. For example own your own home, have good credit and be responsible. As you get older you relize that the opposite sex should be at a certain place in their life. I am not interested in a man who is still in his mothers house. When do you relize you need your own place? Be an ADULT. I have had conversations with guys who are turned off by women that have room mates. They are surprised they are not on their own. Maybe because I am 38 I feel like there are places you should be in your life. I am very turned off my a man who can’t keep his cable on or getting arrested for not paying for their traffic tickets. I guess what I am saying is HANDLE YOUR BUSINESS!!

To Staceye, Atleast you are honest. It is nothing wrong with not having children it is your choice. It just shows you know yourself. There are too many reports of child abuse and neglect. And we have all said some people should not have children. I don’t have any but that is because I want to be married. But I am not pressed to have them or not. it is a option. In the mean time I am enjoying my life.

@Stacey, thanks for being so open about this. My take is, a man will find booty whether u give to him or not. If u dont, he may move on to get it from somebody. A woman who knows what they want should stick to their guns and not succumb to what a man “demands”

They key to having a meaningful relationship is for a woman to have their own ambitions and aspirations outside of a man. Once u find a man whose ambitions and apsirations conicide with urs, then and only then do u have an option to put the man to the test to see if they mean what they say.Meanwhile ur puddsy is under lock until such time he has stuck around long enough that some luv has developed between u two!

Wise I have always said that honesty is the best policy…with a caveat. I think people don’t understand the difference between honesty and tact. As women, we often say that we just want a man to tell us the truth. But, when we hear it, it’s often what we don’t want to hear, or worse how we don’t want to hear it. Laying your cards on the table, and asking the other person to do the same comes with consequences. As adults, if we want that to happen, we need to learn how to handle the fall out.

Melo I understand what you are saying. I do have my own ambitions and goals. I do not focus on a man. My main focus is getting ME right. If a guy comes along so be it…if not, again…so be it. Tracie I thank you for what you said…some people speak as if there is something wrong with me for not wanting any. I have been called selfish. I say selfish is those who have the kid because they got knocked up accidentally and knowing that they are not ready for a kid mentally or financially. I think it is unfair that a child has to struggle because they did not ask to be here. You as the parent should think about that before having unprotected sex. Also people try to push you to have children because you are a woman and that should be a natural desire…when in fact just because your we blessed with a functioning uterus does not mean you should reproduce. It is a horrible feeling to be a child and know you were an accident or never really wanted…. you feel abandoned and not worthy of life because you feel that the people that brought you into the world did not want you, so how is anybody else gonna want you? Then people get biblical about it..you know the whole be fruitful thing. But that is not something to be taken literal for every human being. If that is the case,should a woman who is addicted to drugs and riddled with disease multiply just becasue it was written in the bible? So I thik people who decide not to have children are people who have seriously thought everything through. God bless that want and those that choose not to.

SeanJ not a big debate at all. Trust me, I’ve been asked this many times and my response is usually super long. However - I’ll try to condense it for the sake of the blog.

• That charge was given to mankind and I honestly believe there is enough multiplication going on without me. The bible also says that children are a blessing from God. First of all, He hasn’t blessed me with anyone to be fruitful with - but should He decide to bless me with a child, I would raise it and be the best mother I can be. But honestly, with the amount of sex I’ve had before celibacy and the times that I’ve had it since - if God really wanted me to have a child, then He would have blessed me with one by now.

• My proclamation that I don’t want children is simply me being real. Because God knows me better than I know myself - He and I talk about this all the time. I can’t deny how I truly feel. You might recall I’ve posted many times that I spent a large part of my adult preparing for marriage and children simply because that’s what is expected of a Christian woman. I wanted kids so bad it hurt. Then as time went on and I learned more about who I am (with the help of God) I realized that I really have no desire to have a child. So in my conversations with the Father, I’m like ‘God, what’s up with that?’ Until He shows me otherwise - I can’t deny that part of me.

Deeva to put it in a nutshell - children are a huge responsibility that I don’t choose to willingly take on.

Staceye I’ve been called selfish many times. No offense at all to those that have children, or desire to have children - but the selfishness comes when you want to have your own child - most say to leave ‘their legacy’. Now mind you, after the child comes, the act of raising a child is one of the most unselfish acts there is - but the desire to have one is selfish because there are many children out there with no parents that can become someone’s ‘legacy’.

While I may not have children that look like me physically - there are those that look like me spiritually. The have inherited my integrity, character and morals. And personally that is what I think counts. I absolutely adore mentoring youth. I have a passion for the youth and I would probably deal with more if I didn’t have to go through crazy parents - but that’s a whole ‘nother’ story.

By Sexione

August 1, 2007 12:10 PM | Link to this

Any person (male or female) that doesn’t want kids has the right to make that choice. Everyone (even if you were built with a uterus) is not supposed to have children! So for those that don’t, kudos to you for realizing it beforehand!! And for those that do, do you! And may God bless us all!!!

I will give you an example. I had been dating a guy for about a month and i went over to his house and I asked was it ok to watch TV he said it wasn’t good idea because the cable company was trippin. I said what do you mean? He said he was in a dispute about his bill. I said do you mean you didn’t pay your bill? He admited that he hadn’t paid his bill in 2 months. He was 35 years old at the time. That was a sign that he can’t handle his money or business. You will know what you need ot know before you walk down that aisle. Just be willing to see it.

Sunny take his words with a grain of salt. If he isn’t married, as Bre stated, then his words will change as soon as he gets a chance to see your faults. AND if they don’t then - hey, you’ve hit the jackpot. But give it some time and see if there is some consistency behind those words.

SeanJ - one more thing, I struggle a lot with what I want vs. what God wants. Shoot, I don’t ‘want’ to be celibate - but I’ve found that obedience is a great thing. I’m tempted to have sex frequently, so I know I can be obedient in that area. I haven’t even come close to actually crossing the ‘my will vs. God’s will’ bridge concerning children. I’ve always said that if I should love a man so much that I want to marry him, I would want nothing more than to have his child - if not for me, then because he wants one. But on the outside looking in - I’d rather not.

NCGirl…very good post.

Coming from a male standpoint…I don’t think that we are really that hard to figure out. I’ve even told my wife’s single female friends this…

The three “Fs” can really keep a good man around if you want him. Be out Friend, Feed Us, and you know the other.

The amount of each varies for each man, but a female should be able to find one that is compatible to her needs.

FYI…Feed us doesn’t always mean real physical food. Although that is good, most single men can at least fix basic meals. However, sometimes we need to be “fed” a compliment for no reason, or “fed” a nugget of inspiration. We have to deal with the same daily societal grinds that females have to deal with. I’m not saying we need it constantly, but at at least let us know when we do a good job.

If he needs it all the time, he might be a little light in his loafers. But even a man, needs to hear “Good Job, Baby.”

We hear about the bad, so we should also hear about the good as well.

Hey Poppa Grande and welcome! (I don’t think I said it before.) I like the angle you’re bringing, unfortunately we all know that a woman can give a man the 3 “F”s plus 2 (5 “F”s) and he will still show up, show out and leave. Its a good start, but that doesn’t mean he’ll stick around (we know that nothing is guaranteed). Shoot to be honest, most men will take her 3 “F”s, and be out looking for the same “F”s from another. It is what it is……….

On topic: Poppa Grande the 3 F’s are feed me, fug me, and let me rest my fuggin head, in no particular order.

Sexi I read your earlier post and I’d like to figure something out. You say you want a man but you want him to play 3rd wheel to a daughter thats going to leave you in a few years. Its ok for him to contribute to your household but he is not the priority. He is lower on the totem pole than a child. Then after she leaves he gets kicked up a notch or 2. Is that the story? I hope you plan on being single forever.

In a healthy family the husband and wife are priority uno. Children follow. You can’t neglect an adult for 18 years then hope they mysteriously have feelings for you. I once again realize why there is such a divide in relationships.

Special shouts to those fam members that hold a special place in my heart. You know who you are. Handle em SJ, O, Jake, and Travis. LOL

I think honestly, men decide if they won’t a deeper connection with you if they realize that they aren’t losing a lot but gaining while they are with you (i.e., though I’m with you, I still feel like I have a life of my own, and there also there is a balance with us and our lives). You’re are an addition.

What matters most in dating is just respect for everyone’s time, lives, resources, and the quest to find a meaningful relationship. I think if everyone took this approach, we would not have such a treacherous dating scene.

What she should know about dating M. is: I am an outgoing guy. I have friends that are females that I will never touch. Also, you don’t have to smother me. Ill respect your time and life, please respect mine. Also, play your position because there’s fierce competition here so if you aren’t serious, we can both be better just finding something better. Also, if you’re the super busy type (you cant return a text message), let me know up front so neither of our time is wasted.

Thanks Sexione.. There three F are in different proportions for every guy. If you find someone with whom you are compatible, the Fs are gonna work out trust me. Some “f” are wants and not needs. Its the “f” that are wants that can get a guy in trouble. As I said before, we are visually stimulated for the most part.

Sometimes people are just weak and vulnerable to temptation.

Truth…letting me rest falls under being my friend in my book.

A real friend cares about my wellbeing.

For example:

I have had to tell my wife to slow down a time or two. She can get all caught up with her DST sisters, work, and other obligations and get going out of control. I have to remind her from time to time to get some rest.

She has done the same for me.

@ Travis Women tend to expect men to have their stuff together more than men expect a woman to. im witcha my brotha. but i have to put some of the blame on us men. most women have high, sometimes astronomical, standards. physically if she sees a man looking somewhat bummy with no haircut, clothes not up to par, driving a ‘78 ford focus, and broke, she wont give him the time of day. but if us men see a woman in the same condition, with just a lil a$$ on her, we gone holla at her, instead of telling her to kick rocks.

Thankx Twinkie..

My feeling on having our stuff together is this.

Sometimes the journey is much more fulfilling than the destination.

Much like that movie “Little Miss Sunshine”, they worked to get to a destination and went through all kinds of stuff to get the pagaent. However, when they got there, the destination was really a letdown for them. However, they were still rewarded as they were shown that they were a family that stuck together.

The same can be said about a person (Male or female) that has struggled to get what they have without a SO. The respect factor can really be missing if someone shows up after someone has attained some wealth.

I have friends that play in the all over the NFL, and they are approached by people (male and female) trying to get a piece of what they have earned. That can lead to the lack of respect.Without respect, there are gonna be some issues.

I’m not saying that its right but its what happens.

But Gorilla just b/c you might holla at her doesn’t mean you’ll make her your Mrs. The MLB has already established that there are cut-buddies, jump-offs, friends w/ benefits and wifeys. Are you going to make ole girl in the 79 Gremlin, working at Wal Mart, trying to feed her 3 kids on no child support your wife? Don’t act like women are the only ones who look for certain financial qualities in a mate! Shoot, you and Travis are always talking about a woman’s credit score…sounds to me like you guys are looking for the same thing we are…you’re just packaging it a little differently.

I’m willing to bet (again) that most men do this……….get a good woman who will stick by you thru thick and thin, and as sonn as the bad times are over, or he has lost the extra pounds, or has a few dollars in his pocket, blah blah blah, he is looking for an upgrade because he’s getting the attention (from other women) again! SexiOne, SexiOne, SexiOne, are we at it again? and once again i have to diagree and put the bulk of that on women. why? because women crave attention more than men do. so if you have a women that was overweight and broke, as soon as she loses 30lbs, gets a little money, and starts getting some attention, she starts acting brand new. and yea i know, the only reason she is seeking attention elsewhere is because her SO isnt giving her a sufficient amount…yadi ya whoopti whoop

Magazine companies know that females are verbally stimulated and we are visually stimulated (Hence the 5 Million different types of nudie mags behind the counter at the QT. Note that most of our mags don’t have many words in them….hmmm

Gorilla O what up fellow Virgo! Mo dapping Gorilla O, on your comment about men being easy to please, each sex thinks they are easy to please. The bottomline is women verbalize more and men cut to the chase but it isnt as easy to please the other as it is made to seem. On surface you can have some commonalities but when you get to the meat of the issue, everybody is different and therefore not “easy” to please. Hence why relationships take work. I think what makes relationships seem easy is when you find someone that you are so compatible with that the relationship seems to flow on its own, no matter what.

In my early-20’s I took a break from “committed” relationships. Informed every Sister of my mental mode to just have fun and concentrate on me - yeah selfish I know. At any rate, they either walked-away or could deal with. Except for Freda, she said she understood and was ok with it. But after giving up the “goods” and seeing I had not changed, she slashed the top on my convertible and threatened to kill me. Brother had to change residences. Lesson learned was regardless of how honest you are, not everyone can handle the truth even when you tell them. Peace…

I don’t mind at all taking care of the 3F’s at all, and I feel I should without trying to hubby a man. Overall I’m getting what I want, and I’m putting something in that I will get back in a sense maybe not on the same way but in some way. Plus I don’t mind having a black man walk around with his swagger tipsy because he knows what’s at home or where he is going, meaning a good woman that’s taking care of herself and him. In the end I’m going to handle my own because its on me if he is the benefit of it; all is well. As I always say this does not and will never apply to knuckleheads, those on the five finger rotation, or that back thumper. This is for that good man, do you alright most of the time man, even a man with some issues here and there but around for you man.

Jake & Gorilla O I read a lot of magazines, but I dont take the articles to seriously when they mention things like how to please a man. What I have done though is to ask my best friend (who is a married man) and some other male friends what they think about those articles: true or not, what was left out, what should be added, etc. But the articles are just suggestions, they arent law or fool-proof. The only way to please your man is to find out what pleases him! on side note though, some of those suggestions do work, just depends on how you use the suggestion! LOL

Good afternoon to my sisters of the WLB. What’s up MLB?

I don’t have time to read through all of the posts unfortunately. But, what would I like a man to know about dating me?…I’ll give up two.

1.) I fight hard, but I love harder 2.) If you don’t stimulate my mind first, it will difficult for you to stimulate anything else…

If I had liquid courage or not…Well, since I just read J.L. King’s book last weekend (that book really got under my skin)I’d probably ask a man if he’s been sexually intimate with another man on the front end instead of assuming he’s most likely straight based on appearances/public lifestyle. Then, I’d ask him if he knows his HIV status or if he’d be willing to take a test with his partner if the relationship was becoming serious. In other words, I’d have this discussion to see where his head is at earlier in the game…(somebody said it was “keep it real Wednesday). There it is. Get mad if you want to but that 70% of new HIV/AIDS diagnosis is real among women. And the percentage is not going down.

Have a great day bloggers.

So people really called me that. Guys called just called by BIGS for short. I don’t want any guy calling me Big Poppa…lol

Staceye…since we are visually stimulated those masks and pushup bras are almost the same as us verbally telling you ladies untruths about ourselves. Both are used to cover things that we don’t want others to see.

Aha. The previous series of Sunday School lessons we were doing in our adult class was about ‘Authentic Christianity’. Everyone’s pretty familiar with the ‘Sunday-only Christian’ syndrome. Current series is ‘When Godly People Do Un-Godly Things’. It can happen to anyone!

Date someone from this blog? Surely you jest Diva. I see that you guys never fail me, posting more and more pathetic standards for the Holy Grail in life, meaning “love” for those who are of the moronic bragade of assumers. When I did date, every woman failed my first question when I thought they maybe worthy of a serious realtionship. That question being, how many partners have you had sex with? Most of the time that is a no answer question, which translates to me as alot or they told me their number which my jaw dropped especially the triple didgits. I am very honest about my number but most women assume I’m lieing which is 5. Imo in this day in age majority of women are just too skanky for my taste, if you have had sex with more men than you have fingers go ahead and give yourself the title of Skank and don’t whine about not being able to find a Nice Guy, cause I honestly believe you do not deserve one……you have allready had your fun. Being 36 and only being with 5 women sexually my whole life, I feel I have had my fill of women and there is no need for them in my life any more.

Ok I wasn’t going to come back on until I read this by Jewel

Why do men use their logic, as it is called, to contradict what a woman says?

Geico Caveman Ummmmmm Whattttt??? When I speak of logic as it pertains to sex from a female, it is illogical for man to tell a female on the first, second, third, 948 date that he wants to put on some goggles, forearm pads, some knee high football sock, and fugg the living s** out of you. Chances of sex with female = 1%. Tell a female you are beautiful, you are not like any of these other females, I respect you, you are type of women I can see myself marrying. Chance of sex with female = 98%. So logically speaking which method is best for having sex with a female Jewel?

*Oh and I do have the goggles, forearm pads, and the knee high football socks just in case you are interested.

Wow Rondo…… that’s too, I don’t have the words.

Why would u think the answer to the question was any of your business?

Im not being a smart behind, but IMO a person who judges others may have unresolved issues within themselves and I have to wonder what makes them the authority to decide how one should feel about themselves or accept that judgement as a final answer?

Being chosen by a potential mate is an honor for both people, and will only be appreciated and given the proper respect if it’s done with sincerety and not an agenda.

Rondo feel I have had my fill of women and there is no need for them in my life any more are you gay? I mean, I’m trying to figure out what would make you feel that you don’t have a need for women anymore. And it’s cool if you’re 36 and you’ve only been with 5 females (sexually) in your life…but drop the holier than thou act. That’s played.

WTF???? Rondo unless your name is Jesus Christ and your Pop’s is God….you have NO right to judge anyone! Not meaning to get Bibical…but let ye without sin cast the first stone”. Being that you have been with 5 women…all of them constitute sin! So where the hell do you get off coming on the blog running off at the mouth being the hypocritcal azz that you are. You probably have only been with 5 women because they were either blind, drunk, stupid or just plain ole desperate! Life experiences is what makes you who you are. So put that in your pipe and smoke it! And I hope you choke on it!

Gorilla you mentioned folks that call themselves Christians but do all types of things that are not Christ-like. I’m not one to state whether someone is a Christian or not, but you know them by their fruit. So essentially I was saying I could call myself a man - but if you check my ‘fruit’ LOL, that’s funny now that I think about it - you will find that I am indeed a woman.

Overall, by the time they’re in their mid to late 40’s, men will report 31 or more sex partners, women 9 or so. ‘Course, some are lying. Women will say less, men will say more.

I’ve read other statistics that state that 17% of women report having over 15 sexual partners in their lifetime, 29 or 30% of men report the same. Among African Americans, the figures are 29% for women, 50% for men.

Maybe you’d like a nun, Rondo?

Humph. For Real You are apparently suffering from some inadequacies to think you must pamper and coddle a woman for sex. I assume that he wants to put on some goggles, forearm pads, some knee high football sock, and fugg the living s* out of you.* is an exaggeration? Part of your blog humor? Or is this the real For Real? Is sex your only goal, or the only thing you are capable of having successfully, by your definition of success, with a woman?

Quick Slim lift up your skirt and pull down your panties. Now place one foot on your desk and press your face and breast up agianst the wall. Now arch your back and push out your butt. I will have to perform an emergency mouth to CT procedure. At first you will feel a strong pull followed by a gentle yet consistant tugging motion on your CT. You will also feel warm moist air flowing over your CT. Followed by a warm, moist, and firm apparatus lapping your CT. You will hear a smacking sound but don’t be alarmed. This sound will help reduce the size of your CT.

* Rondo* “Being 36 and only being with 5 women sexually my whole life”…I doubt if that was by choice. From the tone of your post, I have a feeling the reason your sexual encounters with the opposite sex are so few and far between is because of consistent rejection not personal selectiveness.

@Rondo, u right man for having ur own standards.Forget what Staceye says because she may not be ur type and maybe her # is has gone overlimit and she is just feeling rejected like a leper. But those are ur standards, and nobody has a right to question them. Why would a woman want 8..9..10..10+ partners anyway before they settle on on. Same with men.. Which man wants to marry a woman whose puddsy has lost most of its DNA!!

By Staceye

August 1, 2007 4:50 PM | Link to this

Melo so we as wome are supposed to be ok with a man have 60 or more partners….but a woman should only have less than 5. This is some double standards shyt! Newsflash…if every woman was that way you horn dogs would be playing with Palmala and her 5 sisters because you would have no women to get down with so hello…And for your info my number is not high nor am I feeling rejected so please void your degree you think you got in Psychology because obviously it was given by mistake. Sure it’s ok to have standards…it’s something wrong with you if you don’t. It’s better to have a few partners to know what you like and don’t like before you marry and be unsatisfied and hence for cheating takes place because the spouse can not handle their business. I am not saying sleep with the entire eastern Seaboard….but at least test the waters 3 or 4 times.

Melo I agree, if those are Rondo’s standards, more power to him. I just find it odd that as an adolecsent and younger man he made such morally conscious decisions. I mean, I slept with five women during the tenth grade.
