Solo sick days
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Ugh. I’mb sihck.
Although usually I’m excellent at avoiding all the pitfalls that come with flu season, I find myself typing away with a stuffy nose, a disgusting cough and an inability to pronounce words without attaching b’s onto the end of them.
And although my mother has always described me as “fiercely independent” (a description I don’t always agree with) and I have seemingly proven her right through my ability to be content in my own skin, the one time I really want to be “in a relationship” is when I’m sick.
I’m lying here in fuzzy socks and an old t-shirt watching old episodes of Gilmore Girls wishing there was someone who would run out and buy me medicine or make tea for me. Instead, I’m dragging my sorry self into the kitchen to make my own stupid chai.
Sure, there are friends or roommates who gladly pitch in for an errand or two, but they aren’t the sort of people you feel it’s appropriate to impose upon for too long. Ultimately, although I miss the comfort of having a care-giver, I have to pull myself through injury or illness.
What are the other unsung benefits of being in a long-term relationship with someone? The things that no one really ever talks about but are sometimes the best? What are the things you don’t really appreciate when they happen but end up missing when you’re single again?
Have you ever dated anyone who put a lot of effort into your relationship (in ways you may not have noticed) in ways that weren’t traditionally recognized such as taking care of you when you were sick, etc.?

Many have touched on this in great deal already Raqi, SexyL, Beautiful. There’s nothing like waking up next to a man you love and having someone to look forward to coming home.

I can’t say that I don’t have anyone to come take care of me, but in a very real way, I usually consider what that would mean outside of that period of time.
Does it mean I care enough to do the same for you? Does it mean I care enough for/about you to ask?
Once the cold passes, once the fever breaks, these are questions that will have to be answered….and I’d rather have to crawl to get my own tea, rather than have those conversations. My 0.02, one.

Good Morning All,
Three things: Rain Storms. I love rain and water and to me there is nothing better than lying still listening to the rain with the one I love.
Heartbeat. I love listening to my loves heartbeat. The sound is extremely soothing.
Smell. There is something about the smell of a man. Not body spray or cologne. But that primal male smell. Each man smells differently and right now there is just one man who’s smell I miss.

Morning all. Bella, that “fiercely independent” tag is one often bestowed on Sagittarians. I’m the same way.
As for the topic, when I’m sick, I wish my MOM could take care of me. Coming up, she was a stay at home mom, so she had time to put in effort. I always eat a little candy when I’m sick, because she’d go to the store to get me a little treat.
Guys are usually big babies. While they try, you usually get frustrated with them because they don’t know where things are or made the Theraflu too strong. Sometimes they give you double the work when you’re sick! And often times still want some nookie. LOL
By the way, I absolutely love Gilmore Girls.

Kym if you want to smell that primal smell of man, come over to my house. My dam water isn’t running. My neighbor called me at 7 to ask if it was running and it was then but not now. By 3 I’ll be smelling liking a viking.
On topic: I haven’t had as much as a cold in over 5 years. I’m more likey to hurt myself than get sick. However, if one of you ladies needs practice I’ll play sick while you take care of me. I can email you a list of demands/requests.
I am a good caretaker tho. For colds I do sherbert ice cream and seven up (my moms recipe for anyting that ailed you) and then hot tea with lemon and a little crown royal. I also give great massages.
Words I’m going over to your house to shower. I promise not to try on your undies.

When I get sick, I would prefer to be left alone. I don’t want to be waited upon whether well or ill, frankly. It makes me uncomfortable.
When she’s sick, I’ll lavish attention, and she likes it just fine I suppose. I sure hope she doesn’t consider it a ‘benefit of being in a relationship’ though. That is not the spirit with which I render such service.

My ex husband was an excellent caregiver. I can recall him taking great care of me when I was sick, almost as well as my mother would! LOL
What are the other unsung benefits of being in a long-term relationship with someone?
My ex fiance’ was excellent at taking care of everything around my house in terms of painting, power washing the house when needed, changing light bulbs, installing all my ceiling fans etc. Don’t even get me started on my car, it was maintained impeccably when we were together! Now, that we are no longer together I can appreciate even more the things he did for me now that he’s gone. sigh If only that were enough to make a relationship last!

I’ve only experienced the sick deal with my one ex. He was really good at being there to bring me anything I needed from making tea, to rubbing me down with rubbing alcohol trying break a fever, to just being there rubbing my aching body while i slept. I returned the favor when he was sick but Dayum yall men know you can milk the ‘sick act’ for all the attention you can squeeze outta us.

Good morning everyone. Must admit this past Sunday I wished I had a SO waiting at home for me. I was on my feet from 8:00 am until I got back home at 6:15. My feet were killing me and as I took off my shoes I truly, truly wished I had someone there to give me a foot massage. That was all I wanted Sunday. So, I massaged my own feet. I’ve never had a foot massage (I know, earth shattering)!

I have only had three times in my life (outside of childbirth) that I had to really have someone take care of me. Being a single mother all of my adult days I have been the one to care for the sick, the incapable, the ones in need. So for me to be the one on the receiving end I had to be dying. Or at least felt like I was dying.
With that being said, I greatly appreciate the ones that were there for me. The one that so graciously completed my “Honey-Do” list. The one who did my laundry for me so my boys could have clean underwear, LOL. The one who held my cup while I sipped chicken broth or honey lemon tea. The one who wrapped himself around my cold clammy body to keep me warm.
It’s nice being the one cared for every now and then, rather than being the constant care giver.
I fancy having a lazy day partner. Those days when you just lounge around the house. Particularly during the colder months of the year. And when it’s cold and raining…Well, color me happy because I am in my heaven. You can.t beat lying on the couch, with the fireplace roaring and the sound of the rain beating against the window… Can we pleeeaaase get just one more of those days before Spring time break through???

Now it’s funny..I love to take care of others when they are sick. I have always love to help others. But when it comes to me…I’m fiercly independent…as ARED stated of us fellows Sags!
Binford sick time? You must have saw me looking for you yesterday! You weren’t in Savannah biting me on my booty were you? LOL You shure your “sickness” wasn’t a hangover!

The case of the two extremes:
I once rode a bus and a train to get to a car and drive the length of 285 to make my girl some soup while she was sick.
My homeboy called earl in the parking lot of a concert, his old lady walked right past, him and us, and said “y’all brought y’all take care of him…”
So, the measure of how much one will sacrifice to take care of a “loved one” depends on one’s committment, I guess.
But I try a do the little things when in a relationship, make sure her gas and oil are straight I don’t clean cars, I love to cook so that was never an issue, and if you’re sick while wearing a mask I will care for you as much as you need me too (I’m even good for the midday lunch run home to make sure you’re okay….traffic be damned, my baby sick).

Stace that are his phermones that you smell and they turn you on. Have you ever met someone that was attractive but when you got a little closer to him, his pheremones turned you off…not meaning mustiness or not bathing..but his actual personal scent turned you off??? I have and it wasn’t fun at all. I mean, how do you tell someone their scent repulses you. I think my sense of smell is so keen…it’s both a curse and blessing. Folks that drown in their cologne/perfume give me major headaches.
I’ve also been around a dude who pheremones had drug inducing effects. It didn’t hurt that he was also sexy as h3ll…Slim now thumbing through phonebook

Red that “fiercely independent” tag is one often bestowed on Sagittarians. I’m the same way.
Since you’re playing our song, I’ll go’ead and beat the drum. I got it slim… Naah I’m cool…
A few years back, I was broken up from a bike wreck, and while this slim was playing the role of “Helpful Nurse” she’d often make the pain worse. I’d had to tell her that while it would take a second, I could and needed to get up on my own.
Then as Dan alluded to earlier, when I was well, there was this pressure that she was applying that said that I owed her a commitment because she was there to see about me. So no thanks, …I’d rather have to crawl to get my own tea.

Good Morning folks Rell….thanks for an early laugh
Truth Sorry to hear about your water situation. As I was saying on yesterday, my dog is so adorable, but he has a bad attitude. He is almost 4 and needs some work. Let me know about your services.
On Topic…I like knowing my partner is caring and loving when I’m not feeling well. I’m naturally a caregiver, so it feels so good one some is willing to give back the same attention. Like getting a massage when my back aches….like it is now.
I miss early morning love making. Besides thanking God for another day of life, I really enjoy being loved first thing in the morning. Better than a hot cup of coffee.

After awhile, both of your smells will mesh together. Brian had a bad scent. He left it everywhere. I had to wash his bath towels everyday. But months later, they were gone.

In a relationship its a friend fisrt so yeah I do the time and help when necessary, get you what you need run your errands and Im gone call me if you need me..Hovering is not my style but I’ll be there to help…
Dont’ rely on others at all. I rarely get sick but when I do I deal with it and move on the best I can..just who I am. Although my ex is my very best friend he has come to my aid 1 time when I was sick since I reside in this state alone he offerred I didn’t ask and I thought that was nice of him. To have that security is cool but very rarely call on him to help me when ill..only once in the 3 1’2 4 years i’ve known him

But I couldn’t kiss him. We dated for a entire year and I never gave him any because if the kissing part wasn’t working for me, sex wouldn’t either.

I think you find out who really cares about you on the nights when you drank too dayum much. I tell ya, taking care of a drunk, obnoxious, puking friend/SO is one of the hardest things to do. Anybody have any drunk stories where your SO had to step in and take care of ya?
I was out with one of my best friends. We met up at the spot. I had one too many cups of Grey Goose, only had a taco to eat that day…boy oh boy!…Ended up slobbing some chick down in the club..time to leave and I’m calling Earl in the parking lot. At the time, i wasn’t talking to my ex but my friend knew i couldn’t drive home and we lived on opposites sides of town. (Jonesboro & Gwinette). So while I’m professing my ability to drive she calls him up…it’s about 4 a.m. Surprisingly he gets up & doesn’t hesitate to come get me. I’m talking so much shyt in the car about how i don’t need no help…how i tongue this girl down (1st time so i guess it was exciting to me). He took me home..memory blurry here…woke up with my pj’s on and no panties, a MAJOR headache, with a trashcan full of…vomit at my bedside. He later told me how i was so drunk and when he was trying to put my pajamas on, he took my shirt off and sat there like a little girl, looked down and said…”my itties are ouuuutt” LOL! Then (insert sloppy drunk lovin here) lol

Good morning everyone! I too am feeling kind of icky. I would attribute it to maybe my sinuses are draining but I am cold. Can u get a cold right after having the flu. If that is possible, it ain’t fair But it might be a cold because I rode my bike both saturday and sunday and I hopped on it right after getting out of the shower. Times like this make me miss Black because he knows exactly what to do and he babies the hell out of me. When we first started dating I fell off of my bike and flucked up my hip. He was there every step of the way. Ahhh I miss Black but I got to stay strong people. I got to.

Me and the homies had gone to a house party, I got twisted, and was trying to leave. My right hand dude took my keys and drove me to my SO’s house…she came to the door (like 2:30am), and they put me in the house…
Woke up the next morning (the D doesn’t call earl), buck nekked, sweating like swine, next to my gal.
While I won’t go into what happened that night… How about it was 5 hours before I got my car back…the homie went back to the party, picked up a skeoh, and was in Gwinnett county eating eggs when I called him.

The worst part about a drunk is the smell of the alcohol on their breath. The most I’ve had to do for a friend that drank too much was to make sure she got home safely. If you’re a friend of mine and out there drinking yourself silly-then I know I’m hanging with the wrong crowd. That is just not a good look.
I got drunk once in my life (first year in college) and never will I consider doing that again. Hangovers are for the birds. As a matter of fact, I flew back into Atlanta while the storms were going on this weekend and I got so sick on the plane (turbulence). That ish took me back to the night I got drunk in college. I stomach was messed up all weekend.

As for the drunk chronicles, I’ve only gotten p** drunk twice in my life. Both times with a guy I was seeing at the time (so he could take care of me several ways in that state). LOL.
The first was my freshman year in college and I thought I could out drink my boyfriend. 8 shots of tequila. I should be dead. LOL. I didn’t even earl, but the alky sloshed around in my stomach all day the next day.
The second was my 25th birthday after 5 apple martinis. My boo got the keys and the rest of the night is real hazy. LOL. I didn’t earl after that stint either.

We still kissed, felt each other up, rounded bases and all that. We did not ever have sex though. He could definitely feel me holding back with the intimacy stuff and that’s one of the reasons why we went our seperate ways.

Blow my water is running again so our appointment is still on. I’ve sharpened the shears to shave that afro off your back. This time I gotta put a muzzle on you. I’m scared of those sharp azz teeth.
Words I only handle the edibles when there on you. Btw, your bed is real comfy and I ACCIDENTLY spilled some lotion on your sheets.
Footsy no kidding that Keith charachter is a nut case. A dude running that kind of game has some real issues. On the flip side, fellas, can you imagine the numbers you could generate by taking an approach like that? LMAO Ol boy must have slayed some serious azz.

Slim I think dating athletes all my life has dulled my senses. I have hug them right after a game and get turned on! So I must be kind of freak! LOL I kept my ex’s basketball t-shirt and it had his scent for the longest time. It was musk..it was just his natural scent. So when he went back to college I would wear it around the crib and sniff it to feel close to him.
Um you better know that since you kissed the girl…6’1 is coming for ya! LOL You are way samller than her so sorry…but my money is on 6’1! LOL You will be like the new booty in a female jail! LMAO But dude must have really loved you! I have taken care of a drunken ex….it was funny to me when he woke up the next day. He wole up like teh dude in the commercial, “this isn’t my house” and he jumped up and ran smack into my wall! LMAO
I got drunk for the first time last year in Mexico. It was there I learned Tequila is not my friend. I still have the picture of the lil Mexican dudes posed around me and one biting me on the hooter! LOL Why is someone always biting me? I guess I should stop flicking people off and telling to to bite me huh? But anyway…I am suprised I did not fall into the ocean while walking back to the ship. The dock long and had NO rails. I kept saying to myself, don’t cross the yellow line. I then walked up 7 flights of stairs to get to my cabin since I hate waitin for elevators…being the impatient azz that I am. That night my girl and I where fighting for the bathroom and paying homage to the Porcelain God and releasing hues of pink because we both decided to down as much pepto bismo to cure the bubble guts! LMAO have I grossed you out enough?

First time I played BULLSHYT was at Ga Southern. I think i lost every round. I was drunk for 3 days. I swore off drinking after that. Now I sip.

I can’t help it if other folks chose to turn the spotlight on me or something I’ve said. If folks feel the answer lacks details, ask for em. Or change your blog name and cuzz at me (lol). Either way, that’s where the attention comes from.

The man can write, and at that, laid bare his views on race relations in this country in a way that hasn’t ever been done….analytical, judging (both sides), and simultaneously affirming and dismissive.

What kind of women are you all attracting that are lured by the smell of raw sex on you?
There was a guy that worked here a few years ago that really really nice looking. On several occasions he came back from lunch or even early in the morning coming in to work smelling like “the deed”. It had an adverse effect on how women looked at him. He was looked at as being down right nasty. Even got a can of Lysol placed on his desk.

Red We still kissed, felt each other up, rounded bases and all that. We did not ever have sex though. He could definitely feel me holding back with the intimacy stuff and that’s one of the reasons why we went our seperate ways.
And it took this dude a year to figure that out?
Not sayin’ that you’re lying but seriously suspect and highly improbable. When you spin these stories from the standpoint of you holding the magic key and turnin’ dudes around at the gate after they’ve been in line since last Easter, just throws my screen into alarm.

6’1” I think my club make-out session was probably the one thing i remember most vividly from the night. At one point the security dude had tapped me on my shoulder to see if everything was okay. LOL! Now that I think about it, at one point she made me sit on the stage while she proceeded to dance for me. From what I was told, my ex reaked the benefits from that 4-play I got earlier in the night. He said he was talking to me while trying to put my pajamas on..next thing i know i just straddled…..need I say more As far as if i like it…I guess I did. Had me feeling like a pimpstress in the club…Slim now singing Sensual Seduction
SJ3K I’ve heard of women dabbing their scent on their neck & wrist to attract dudes. I myself have never tried it nor know if it works. But you had me cracking up with this: dont know if it the sweet scent was on my fingers or goatee but its like u have a on a chick magnet cologne Dudes have many times said they like that they can still smell the girl on their stache afterwards.

Hey people…grown folks!!! No need for a woman to go thru all of that to catch a man’s attention. The male’s sense of smell is programmed to pick it up. It’s called nature. It happens automatically. God gave it to him. You can’t undo it.
