DEL.ICIO.USWhen a friend asks to date your Ex…
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
So a friend of mine (let’s call him Jake) dated this girl for three years. While they were serious, he says he never felt that “push” to get married, which finally led to their breakup. A couple months later, a friend of his called to ask his permission to ask his Ex out.
Stunned, he said yes. While he thought it was in poor form for homeboy to ask, he also thought it would be stranger to tell him “No, you can’t date the girl I didn’t want to date anymore.”
The thing is, he knew his friend from childhood. He also knew this friend is notorious for having few boundaries when it comes to dating other people’s girls. Still, he was surprised and hurt this guy would put him in that position. Fast forward a couple of years…they are still friends, though Jake keeps him at arms length.
Oh, I should mention that his Ex did go out with his friend, but just once. She later said she regretted the move.
We’ve talked in the past about dating friend’s exes, but I’m more curious about why a man would want someone’s sloppy seconds. Fellas, have any of your friends moved in on your Ex-girl? Is it fair play or just a major foul to dip your pen in your friend’s old ink?
I think most girls would be really hurt if their female friend made a play for their Ex-guy, but does the average man have the same response?
What would you tell a friend who asked to go out with your Ex from a long-term relationship?

Good Morning ALL
No way…Whats mine is mines. It’s mark territory once ANY one of my homies have had a dude. It’s completely off limits. I mean why would you want to come behind someone? It’s too many men out there to be RECYCLING them. It’s gross.
Better yet its as almost as wearing or borrowing my friends panties…That’s a no no.
Girls before dudes. NO way.
BREAKFAST: There is gubment p nut butter straight from Oakley salmonella plant..with some green molded bread..and sum unsweetened Red Kool-Aid…Sorry I ran out of Sugar Enjoy!

although I am not a Fella let me offer my thoughts from a female perspective….
When I was about 23 I had an ex who’s friend asked him if he could holla at me, and my ex told him yeah.. but in the same breath was mad at me because he thought I had egged his friend on in some way to be interested in me, so he said out of anger and to get back at me he told him yeah… I then went off on him, because I felt disrepected on some level. I didnt talk to his friend, but the thought of him giving him the OK really bothered me.
On the other hand, I have mixed feelings…. my first thought or answer if my friend would ask to date my ex would be H3ll No! Why would you want to be with someone that I have been with?
then again, who are we to put claims on someone? Afterall we dont own anyone.

While opinions will vary, my rule is this:
If I don’t want her anymore, of course you can have her. But a courtesy call must be placed prior to any involvement, even if it’s just before.
It’s the crew rule that I grew up with, and every cat that violated it, was ex-communicated.
It’s a simple matter of politeness to call your homeboy before you try and “talk” to his ex.

I’m more curious about why a man would want someone’s sloppy seconds We’re all SOMEONE’s “sloppy” seconds. Blanca you had reservations about a get-together where Roland’s ex would be. You got her “sloppy” seconds. Who cares where the “sloppy” seconds come from? If I’m not with you, then there’s a reason. You’re fair game to everyone, including my friends.

I once had my ex’s cousin want to date me. He actually asked my ex (his cousin) if he was cool with it. I got this random phone call and was like, “Who is this and how did you get my number?” He explained who he was and I told him that I was not interested. I then called my ex and asked him WTF was he thinking. He said he thought his cousin was joking. WTF did he think I was going to say??

My boy was knocking off a chick he had known for years. It was just sex and friendship as he was knocking off a slew of them at one time. We go over to her house and I can tell she’s feeling me. I can feel the attraction myself. When we got ready to leave she asked if I’d like to get something to eat. I told my boy and he said no. While I honored it he bytched out. Puddy is puddy. If you dont get a monthly and cramps aren’t a part of your program dont try to control one.
We’re in a new era where most women dont have a problem moving in close circles. For the fellas, spread the wealth. You can’t dictate a womans morals. She is what she is.
Blow thanks for the delicious breakfast. Now I have poo poo tummy and and I need to barf all at the same time.

a friend of his called to ask his permission to ask his Ex out
We are not living in the days of slavery. No one owns another individual. Just because you dated someone does not give you ownership to that person or their lives. I have never understood this ask permission nonsense.
I wonder if Mase performed a seance to get permission to be with me despite it being 9 years after the fact and 13 years when we got married. LOL
You don’t own your ex. They can date whomever they choose. With or without your permission.

I agree with Blow on sharing jumpoffs cause I’ve passed around one or two to my girls myself. Personally I’ve never dated one of my girls exes b/c it goes against the code….and it’s just nastywrong. It also makes me wonder what kind of self respecting man or woman,for that matter, would really want to date past a S.O. of one of their friends. What if that particular ex caused some kind of harm or hurt to your friend would you still want to date them?
A friend of mine lost her husband a few years ago but about a month or two after he passed away she started dating one of his close friends and I had major beef about it but what could I do? I didn’t agree with it but I didn’t know if was she was grieving,lonely or what. I also wondered if it was goin’ on before her husband passed b/c it started so quickly after his death. Well,at first the friend would say things to her that her husband told him while he was alive and I thought that that was a way she could still feel connected to her now deceased husband but it turned sour after a while. Out of anger one night this dude told her that her husband also confided in him that he didn’t really trust her at times b/c he felt she would one day cheat on him.
I felt bad for her b/c of what he said and I also thought well you are sleeping with one of your now deceased husband’s best friends. Go figure…..

Good Morning All,
I don’t think it is an ownership issue. It is an issue of respect toward your friend. I met a lady at a party at my best friend’s house. When I asked him later about her, I discovered that he was seeing her (frustrating because I really liked this lady). Three months later they broke it off. I wanted to call her, but out of respect for him, I decided to wait for a few months, then ask if he would have a problem with it. It turns out that another male acquaintance of ours saw a window of opportunity and immediately jumped in, but in effect ditching his friendship with my friend (men have no honor when it comes to affairs of the heart…or whatever).
It has been a couple of years now, but I would still hesitate to ask her out, because lovers are a whole lot easier to find than friends.

Dreams The question isn’t whether to date someone who has dated another person in the universe…I’m asking how people feel about their friends moving in on someone they were close with. I’m not simply concerned about the sex issue, but whether friends should stay away from someone with whom you had strong emotional ties, etc.

I keep telling y’all that this town in not that big.
People stay in certain social circles (usu. based on income), and chances are you know by some 3 degrees of seperation, someone that has dated a friend or ex of yours. So please, give up that whole notion that you were someone’s first, last and only.
As for Randy’s story, it’s true that most dudes have no problem with a friend dating an ex (usu. depending on the way the relationship ended). For guys, the main problem is “dirty dycking” that is, not informing the potential aggrieved party prior to the relationship.

Is it fair play or just a major foul to dip your pen in your friend’s old ink?
Jumpoffs or regular, I have alwayz followed the honor system:my pudsy is my pudsy,ex or current, and i dont share with close friends! I ex-communicated a close friend after he hollered at one of my jump offs back in the day! We have never been as close,even tho this guy knows some of my deepest and darkest secrets! I do not dip where a close person is dipping or has dipped.A close person dipping into ur ex-spit means that they had their sights on same pudsy all along.What does that do to the rest of ur dealings? How can u confide nor trust that person in other matters,after that,even when they ask for ur permission before hand.Its not a good look.Its also rather trashy and trailer park type stuff.Drama! Speaking of trailer parks:why does it seem like all the little white kids who disappear and get molested are from trailer parks? Is this so or maybe its just me?

EXACTLY Randy T!! I was going to type a response but I erased it because I could capture what I was really thinking and feeling. Ultimately this topic centers on RESPECT for your fellow friend first. Obviously, all is fair in love and war, but respect is the mortar that holds the bricks of friendship together. Once that is compromised then the strength of the friendship is compromised as well.
Bottom line I wouldn’t make a move on a chic my homeboy was dating unless she was some regular jumpoff. If he had feelings for her then she is off limits. However, if said girl just so happened to be feeling me then it is what it is…I might hit her off, but I definitely wouldn’t take her serious. There are principalities involved in this maaaan!

Blanca Who cares if you were close to them or had close emotional ties. See, “were” and “had” are the operative words here. Once the relationship is over, then so are the ties. Who are we to prevent another person from possibly being happy with someone just because we weren’t happy with them. This so-called “code” is just a euphemism for selfishness.

BitHunny - Had the same exact thing happen to me. I was not the least bit interested in the other dude, in fact he gave me the creeps, plus I was still feeling the ex even though we had broken up. Told him I did not need his help finding dates, thank you!
I would not want to date ANY of my friends’ exes because we have vastly different taste in men. Just on looks alone, I would definitely have to pass. Same goes for friends of my exes.
Dan - You’re right, this town really ain’t that big, especially the AA community.

I had a friend that wasn’t really an ex per se but someone that I occasionally dated for some time right after highschool. Went to a couple of church services with him with his hypocriting behind. That was all but funny knowing how he was. It was never anything more because he was strickly about knocking ‘em off and keeping it moving. Wasn’t trying to be an added chick to his knockoff chain so I didn’t. Anyway, we stopped dating but he’d call from time to time to keep in touch. He found out through my then current boyfriend that an old friend I worked with at Dun & Bradstreet, had become a stripper and wanted me to hook him up. I called her and she was cool with it but I gave her fair warning about him and his reputation. So, I was good with it. As a matter of fact when they hooked up, we doubled dated. Me and my guy and she and him. That was something, watching him successfully work him magic and all in one night.

I wouldn’t ever make a move on any serious ex of a friend. I might be tempted to “dip my pen” if my friend wasn’t serious about the girl — but even then it would only be recreational. I could never have a real relationship w/ a girl that had ever been w/ anyone I know in any way. Just not an image I’d want popping into my head for the duration of the relationship.
As for my own ex’es — if any of my friends want them, more power to them. If they can deal w/ the thought of all the freaky sh!t I used to to to their new girl, then so be it. LOL
“why does it seem like all the little white kids who disappear and get molested are from trailer parks? Is this so or maybe its just me?”

I think it depends on the extent and longevity of the relationship. If a chick was officially my potnah’s lady, I’m talkin bout, he’s introduced her as such, he’s brought her to the Bar-B-Ques, House/spades get togethers, kids birthday parties, etc. Over time, she’s become part of the clique. Then they break up. I couldn’t get wit her, even if she offered the gutz on a silver platter. Some have said that etiquette dictates that one should ask permission before pursuing a friend’s ex. If your potnah was serious with the chick, a friend wouldn’t ask if it’s cool to date her. He wouldn’t want her. The true litmus test is how your actions will affect the friendship. True friends are hard to find. You could meet a thousand females at Lennox Mall every Saturday.

Heck if two people want to put themselves in the awkward situation of mingling among the exes then that’s on them. If my late husband was still here I would not have gotten with Mase because it would be just awkward. There is no way I would attend social gathering and whatnot with the friend of an ex. If they were no longer friends and we don’t have socialize or mingle with the ex, then we good.
If I let myself into a friend’s house, go thru her fridge, sleep in bed and shower in her bathroom that’s disrespectful. That’s her properly. Her private living quarters. But if she sells the house and everything in it and no longer have owner or say, then I can buy and do whatever the heck I please.

It ain’t really
When you think about the “professional” class (single and married) it’s all tied up in associations, meetings, similar seminars and the such.
So you see the same people, over and over again.
Eventually, people in the group will start hooking up. “A friend of a friend” type, and there you have the awkward socially incestous relations technically speaking. When in reality, it’s people of like minds and “status” searching the same base group for a relationship.

Blow/Melo - I grew up, born & raised here. Technically, yes it is big. What I think Dan and I are talking about is that you tend to run into a lot of the same people in different social circles. And no, IN MY OPINION, the transplants have not really added to the quality of choices. It’s a totally different mentality from my native brothers & sisters and not always good. Again, just my opinion.

I tend to look at the “profit/loss” when I make aANY decisions, whether financially or professionally or in affairs of the heart. What do I stand to gain vs. what do I stand to lose. Dating Stacy would have/could have endangered my relationship with my friend. There was a high probability that the relationship with her would not survive (most do not), but the friendship might be gone forever. As I said, finding lovers is easy, finding friends is much harder. I just valued my friendship more than my “chances for romance”. I will admit that I had to think long and hard about it, because Stacy was awesome, lived close, great personality…it was a tough choice, but the right one (probably, LOL).

Also, this topic is ridiculous. Is it cool to spell words irregularly? Using “ph” for “f” and adding “z” instead of “s?” It makes you look illiterate. This blog makes me depressed for the Atlanta “dating scene.”

Good Morning….
First and foremost, you shouldn’t attach the female thought process to male actions. We are different and process things differently. There is a good reason for that. Personally, I am glad that we a different. I just accept that as it is and adjust accordingly.
With that said, many guys look to respect from the friend that wants to date the ex. Like many have said, a call is nice to get. That way I am not shocked if the friend shows up to a function with my ex. This is important since we probably frequent the same places. I would never want to be in the position of Darius (Larenz Tate) when Hollywood (Bill Belamy) show up with Nina (Nia Long) at a party in Love Jones. Let me know so that I am prepared. That is where the betrayal comes in.
Otherwise, I don’t own anyone. Honestly, I don’t really want to keep my friends from happiness. After all, just because the girl wasn’t for me, doesn’t mean that she couldn’t be exactly he needs. I’ve been there, and learn this through experience.

theTruth couldnt get to it cause he needed me to understand and agree that women aint shyt.
dan and i wouldve had fun but he want to discuss and expound on where the bed was in the room
bluK was too busy co-signing what errrybody else was doing
i was excited about forReal but he kept having to stop and write a skit about we were getting ready to do
c tha 1 kept flip-flopping on a position
randyT had potential but he only wanted to talk about his tshirts and how they made him he man he is today
me and Du wouldve but i didnt pass his litmus test.
wouldve been wit staceye but she was confused and kept cussing me out for being a man
ceeCEE wouldve been a nice romp but we kept trynna out quote each other wit scripture
lurker and i woulve got down but she never came from behind the curtain
angie and i wouldve met up but i couldnt clone myself deaf and blind
kym…… i will admit…. i was too scared to.
when it came to raqi she was giving it out too much already and couldnt work me into her schedule
and i didnt have enough money or patience for areds narcissitic… sorry… sarcastic side to take her out, which she has to go on before giving up anything.

“just because the girl wasn’t for me, doesn’t mean that she couldn’t be exactly what he needs.” That’s a good point. Additionally, the amount of time that has passed since the break up is an important factor as well. If years have elapsed and both parties have obviously moved on, it’s cool. A potnah of mine married one of my ex’s and I was in the wedding. Over a decade had passed since she and I dated. During which, I had gotten married. I was sincerely happy for them. Although, every time I hugged her, I remembered how I used to tear that azz up.

Seriously Spelling words where you use ““ph” for “f” and adding “z” instead of “s?” ” is actually not a case of spelling “irregularly”. Regularity refers to frequency, and the intentional misuse of phonetics is in no way related to frequency. What you’re really saying is that the spelling is incorrect. So, while some may need to work on spelling and grammar, you may need to improve your understanding of denotative meaning.

I have experienced the same thing. As I’ve stated, I lived and learned.
Time is pretty important.
Real Life Example from with the female getting the same guy:
Rev. Andrew Young is married to Carolyn Young. Carolyn Young was a very good friend of Rev. Young’s first wife (Jean Childs Young), who died. From my interaction with Mrs. Carolyn Young, she doesn’t seem have regrets from getting her friend’s husband. He was single and fair game.

Why are you reliving the past? When you see a former squeeze you think about how you tap it! Not about the good times are how good she was too you!
You see sex is too easy and a lot of us has had too many partners but reflecting on how good the person was shows your mind is not one deminsional!

They have been married for six or seven years now and have three kids together. Tragically, last year my homie got shot in the head, was in a coma for weeks and dayum near dead. That girl was at his bedside everyday and nursed that man back to health. In my eyes, that’s the chick the creator chose for my dog, even if I did knock her down first.

She said while he was sitting there worrying about her being the ex of a former friend/co-worker, she was laughing on the inside thinking only if he knew how much cumedy he had ingested from the “stranger” that she was seeing when he was out of town for work. Sexing the both on the same day. Scandalous. LOL

the only people who have any measure control over another person is one who employs another. This employer has control over your income. Which controls other things, such as your basic needs. If the employer goes under, it truly can affect how you acquire your needs such as Shelter, Food, etc.
However, as far as friends go, there is no such control unless they are funding your basic needs. Otherwise, they are just someone with whom you share a bond. So what if you cut them?
We already have establish that humans are selfish creatures.However, contrary to popular belief, we (as individuals) aren’t the center of the universe. They have their own desires, needs, etc, and focus on that. After a down period, they will go on living just fine without you.

Hey Melo
I’m not saying that I/we do not have a measure of influence…we all have that if we have earned any respect from (fill in the blank, wife, friends, children, parents, SO, whatever), but not necessarily “control”. At the end of the day, those friends, etc., have their own needs (as Papa Grande said), and with “control” also comes a measure of “responsibility” (as Kimmie suggested). I can try to “influence” an SO not to leave, or a friend not to date the “flake”, or my children not to throw their lives away (and they haven’t thank God), but at the end of the day I might “influence” their decision, but it is still “their” decision. Some “influence perhaps, no “control”.

So, no, that part of the fam will be nowhere near the nuptials, or any other part of our lives, thankfully.

i’m 50/50 on this one. i don’t hate any of my ex’s. with that being said, i would be hurt if my close friend asked for my permission. i would prolly say no and at the same time say goodbye to our friendship.
she didn’t take to heart my relationship with them and i believe respect was lost in there somewhere. so yea! phuck her! h3ll naw you can’t get at my man/ex. find your own! and with you being triflin’, you prolly going to do it behind my back anyways.

Here is what I do know when a woman loves you with all her soul and believes in you she will stay faithful and not return to her past because you are taking care of all her needs!
To Stacey: I do agree see I have friends like that! It is not even a question about that situation!

Melo
You don’t have control over them. What do you have to offer to your friends that they couldn’t live without? If you don’t have anything like that, then you have no such control. They are making the choices.
Your friend’s choose to take your advice. Your friends choose to abide by your requests. They choose. Period.
There is a saying “Everything is fair in Love and War”. Your friends have chosen to *respect *your request. The key word is “respect”. Not control. You don’t control whether they eat, sleep or poop.
All that you’ve got to offer them is your friendship and what comes with that. If they find that offer adequate they accept it. There are alway opt-out clauses in friendship.
As for the wife, there is respect. That is why respect is so important. There has to be no control over her. Asserting control over someone means that that person’s actions are involuntary.
There is a difference between respect and control. Which leads me back to my first comment. That phone call is a exhibition of “respect”, and putting me on notice of the situation. So, I am not the only one that doesn’t know what’s going on. But, I can’t keep another man from doing what he is gonna do unless I kill him. It ain’t that serious.

I really do not know if any friends have dated my exes in the last 10 years. In college, they seemed to be the first to hit on my exes (hellz some of the women I was still dating). Maybe that is why I have very few close male friends. Since my marriage ended, I have always been pretty much a lone wolf. I have one of two “close friends”, a number of “semi friends” that I might call or get a call from wanting to go do something or dinner or hit the clubs with. With my “semi friends” I really do not care either way. If they see something in my past (or in my present for that matter) then as far as I am concerned, let them go for it. If a woman is in my past, I hope she finds happiness wherever or with whomever…if a “semi friend” wants to go down a path I have already passed on, fine. But a “close friend”, I would expect to at least pass the idea by me before moving in, just to see if I am ‘hanging on” for some unknown, probably ludicrous, dumb azz reason. Ninety nine times out of hundred, it is just fine.
And Raqi, so that you know that not all men think of womaen as “skanks and ho’s”, personally I have respect and affection for all of my exes, whether I left, they left, or we just drifted away. I learned from all of them, and each will always have a place of their own in my heart and mind (even if I cannot remember their names which is dayum embarassing frankly, they all had an impact, ;-).

Randy I didn’t read pass the first sentence but I agree with you on having a certain amount of influence however it not the same as control. Some people mistake it as so and it’s not. We cannot control the actions of others. I don’t care how much advice my friends seek from me or me from them they cannot control my actions. They do not tell me what to do or not do. They can only advise the choice is mine.
If a friend came and informed me she is dating my ex Randy and she also chooses to keep company with me that would be very awkward. He is a good man, but I would not want the awkwardness therefore distancing myself from them. But I can’t tell her not to date him because it is not my call to make. I don’t own him. And I would want for both of them to be happy if they make each other happy.
Now let me read the rest of your post. LOL But yeah I agree with you so far.

Poppa we talk about respecting wishes, but how can one not respect the wishes of a friend to take a twice removed ex if that person is good for them. As we all have stated before not all relationships ended badly. So why do we make it one sided? Not only would you (not you but you) be choosing to date you friend’s ex, but your friend’s ex is also choosing to date you. No one individual has the say so. However in my opinion the ex has none.

i have dated a friend’s ex…years ago - early 20’s…wouldn’t do it now…not for a real, true-blue friend (you know, one of my girls)…but if it’s somebody that i know only casually…i don’t know…
can’t remember dating an ex’s friend…probably have though…(i’m old, i have forgotten more ish that i have done than most people have done)…can’t say that it was a big deal…especially since i can’t quite remember it…
nine times out of ten…if you are the ex of a friend…it’s for a reason…and usually, it’s because you really fcuked up or because you’re a really fcuked up person…and that would rule you out right up front…
and if you’re the friend of an ex who’s an ex for one of the above reasons…you probably fall into one of those two categories as well…because birds of a feather…and so on…
i wouldn’t rule a person out based on some b.s. rules of engagement…most likely, you would be ruled out by the basis of the aforementioned logic…
if you can make it past all that…then all bets or off…
maybe…
but then too…if i got to do this much d@mn thinking about whether or not to date yo’ @ss…f*** it…dudes are a nickel a piece, a dime a dozen…NEXT!!!

Whoever said you dont control anyone gets a standing ovation. Thats the joy of life. You’re free to do whatever you like, just like I’m free to gig you for it. Thats why you get no guarantees or warranties in this thing.
Melo growing up we heard ish like if I caught my chick in bed I’d kill the cat and what not. Listen, I’m not killing that dude and going to jail to be someones love puppet while she’s out giving you head. I’d rather thank that dude for showing me what I had. It may hurt but feelings always get better. What really hurts is getting treated like a second class citizen in your own home.
My point is we never control those around us, only how we let them treat us.
Raqi of the men in your life, where would you put Mase? I know he’s not “The One” but how far down the totem pole does he go? I say that because I can dam near hear you cream when you talk about ex #1 or whitebread but for Mase its like, well, he stuck around and you gotta respect him for that. I think you said it took you a few years to really attach to him anyway, didnt you?
Personally I’d never marry a chick that didnt think my ish was unique and highly valueable. Not alot think it but I’d wait vs picking some chick that thought I was just Joe Blow. I do know chicks base alot of their decisions on who extends them a contract. A cat could be 97 in the rotation but if he offers a long term contract with the option of kids he goes to the head of the pack. Sure, she’ll make his life a living hell for not being Mr. Mcdreamy but thats later. First lets get to the alter.
Btw, men marry women that arent the bomb in bed too. They just make it up with conjugal visits. LOL

I agree with your 1:40. That is why all that I ask is to let me know what is going on. I don’t want to be blindsided when everyone else knows that my boy is dating my ex besides me. Or just see them around.
It isn’t me granting permission as much as me getting prepared to see her with him. That is the respect about which I am speaking. Real friends don’t want to put their friends in bad situations.
However, to say that my friend can’t have one of my ex’s is childish. It is like a child, who has outgrown his Winnie the Pooh getting upset when the parent gives it to another kid who could use it. Even it the pooh is just sitting in the toy chest and hasn’t been touched in quite some time, many kids will try to get it back and say “mine”.
Forbidding a friend from dating my ex is like a reversion to that childish “mine” attitude.

Naw, I ain’t never felt the envy for my friends because of bf’s or ex’s either…in fact, I sometimes wonder what they saw in the mofo’s…lol…by the time he became the ex, I was like “oh,now you got it”…truly.
Mkaryl - High 5 on this one! Really this is such a non-issue topic for me. I have NEVER desired ANY of my friends’ exes! Nor have I wanted any of my exes friends, brothers, cousins, etc. Now I have seen a few friends/neighbors of SO’s that I thought I may want to introduce my friends to, but never even went thru with that.
I just want what’s meant for ME. Everything shiny is not gold. Too many times I’ve seen what everyone swore was somebody’s GOOD MAN or husband turn out to be anything but when the paper was pulled back. Its just such a waste of time & energy to be jealous, especially of some dude!LOL!!

Yeah Poppa “mine” as if I still own it. Or ever have for that matter.
In other news…
Last night we attended a catered semi formal affair of some associates. On the way in Mase said I wonder what the food is going to be like. Immediately I thought Oh no the grubmonster is lurking. I know to feed this man before these events but I didn’t force it last night. I hate attending most catered formal affairs with him because the food is barely enough for birds and I am married to a vulture. The man can eat. I usually find myself giving him half of what’s on my plate. So…as we were entering the building I was thinking to myself please let them an appetizer buffet. And golly gee they did. And the also had food services walking the floor with trays. I stuffed him with so much crap when it was time to sit down and eat he was surprisingly full. :-) I just kept handing him napkins with stuff on it. He was talking and mingling so he wasn’t paying attention he was eating.
I was at the buffet table putting these little crab cake thingys on a napkin and this lady told me seeing that you are pregnant those are surely not for you, you must have what I have. I said what. She said a forever hungry husband.
Why am I telling you this? Because I can. It’s been a while since I told you all anything.

I think dating a friend’s ex is a bad idea, and I don’t like the idea of a friend dating an ex of mine. The tough part would be that if they hit it off, I’d become an object of my friend’s jealousy, since I’d have had her first. It would serve only to lose a friend, and friends are too valuable to treat so casually. As far as the ex herself goes… pfffft.

Lurker # 6258.3 I handle all Lurker questions in numerical order and right now I’m on #37. However, since your question was so straight forward let me answer, to the best of my ability.
What you have to do is what every successful person in any field must do. You have to up your game to the point where your B game is still better than the next chicks A game. Specialize in something, anything dam near. But a guy has to look at you and think this chick is the bomb in area A, B and C and those areas happen to be very important to me.
Then, only market to guys that worship what it is your selling. These chicks are getting tricked into buying fake breasts when they should have been looking for dudes that adored those bee stings. They’re out there, you just have to go find them. The key is to cut bait early and often until all your possible suitors/men happen to love your product.
Ex: I’m light skinned. A soon as a chick says she’s into dark skinned cats its a wrap. I cant market to her because going in the door she doesnt value my product. Its only going down hill from there. I do know chicks that love a bald headed dude with a goatee and light skin (self promo, stand by) and can put a plan into effect like nobodies business. Thats travelled the world and experienced alot in life. That can bring the heat in the sack and then cook you an omellet for breakfast. You get the picture (End of self promo)
Summary: Evaluate your strengths and weaknesses and know what you bring to the table, then cut ties quickly with anyone that doesn’t love your product.
I hope that helps but maybe it doesnt.
Staceye as I’ve said before, I’ve been loved so you can’t pull the wool over my eyes. I put alot of pressure on a woman to perform and if she’s not all in she’ll show her true colors sooner than later. You can say whatever you like because I’m not watching your lips but your actions. You’re always going to be true to yourself so I just have to be patient til you reveal yourself.
Oh an BTW Truthie…I just charged Some Christian Louboutin’s on your Visa card! But the Master and discover cards were declined…please pay your bills! Thanks! Oh snookems, because of the close bond we have I put you on my credit cards. Now we can pay them together. I love our relationship. Smooches

I’m gonna be frank with you and let you know during training sometimes I have to hold you by the hips or have you bend over in front of me so we can accomplish the mission. Also, from time to time I get tense and I’ll need a good full body massage with those lotions that warm up when you blow on em. And I’m kina touchy feely so if put my hand on your chest or buttocks its only to highlight a point and not to satisfy any perverted ways.

Unfortunately, I’ve been learning in law school that saying isn’t quite correct.
If you don’t make a good effort to return said item to the rightful owner, it can be looked at as stealing. It didn’t make sense to me, either. But, you do have to make an effort to find the right person. Otherwise, it is borderline theft and claim can be made for its return to the rightful owner. (Per the US Supreme Court)
Those C-Notes aren’t abandoned. They are either lost or misplaced. The rightful owner didn’t voluntarily give them up, and still wants them. Abandoned property was given up voluntarily.

Raqi Yes, he has to prove that it is his.
It was more of a general statement about the 9/10th of the law thing. That is why I made the statement in terms of property than money. It really isn’t that simple.
If I have them in my hand and never at anytime saw him with those particularly bills, he cannot stake claim. Right?
Wrong. It doesn’t matter if you saw him with those bills or not. It he can describe with particualrity (like the serial numbers), he could have a legitimate claim.
Intent is the most important thing in a free society. Did the rightful owner intend to part with the money? It not, it isn’t abandoned. You have to hold on to it for a period so that the right owner can come back and claim it.
Yeah, we thought it was a stupid ruling because money looks the same.

Poppa Sorry I meant he could NOT tell me the serial numbers. But here’s my last question, so if I spend the bills which I did, and buy something that we both will use can he sue me for the full amount after he has utilized what could possibly be half. Now he never proved that they were his, but can he sue me and can I get off by saying he had free usage of the product purchased with the funds.
And what about communal property? He earned those dollars while married to me, lost them in our washer so don’t I have a right to them?

If he never proved that they were his, he can’t sue you. Only the rightful owner retains that right.
AS for communal property, you are correct for modern law.
That would NOT be the case at common law. women couldn’t own property. Women had no rights to sue. Male children came before the wife. She could sue on behalf of the male child and get money that way.
Trust, marital rights day was a VERY interesting day in property class. Half the class was quiet (male) the other half (female) were very opinionated.

If I had stated how wonderful Mase’s dizzle felt as it satisfied the earnest desires of my labia minora upon penetration last night, melo would be just fine with me. But I am not speaking his language today. He’ll be alright tomorrow.

Lurker # blah blah blah what are you? I mean what is your place in the world? Are you a giver, taker, team player, wanna be on top, bottom? Where are you in the world? When you know and are comfie with where you the whole world opens up. People start coming to you. You can see who is good for your position and who isnt.
What we have is bunch of dysfunctional folks out here trying to be linebackers weighing a buck 05. Whoa Nelly. Find your spot and man your position.
These chicks have been sold a bill of goods and are paying top dollar for potted meat. If you want a family dont talk to a guy that says he doesnt. And have the guts to ask. If you want a home only deal with cats that have that. Dont work on projects or redo’s. No matter what we say there’s a chick right this minute planning a wedding with a man that loves her and she him. f she can you can but you have to know what skills are gonna get you to the table. BTW, this is the hardest thing to do. To look at yourself and say I’m lacking in this area. It crushes the ego to do so.
first step, find out who lurker #__ is. Second step, market that chick to the desired group. 3rd step, Enjoy. LOL
Cee holding a cats seed means nothing in this society. You gotta come better than that. This chick is all dreary eyed over some old cats while the dude thats covering the bills get talked about like leftovers.
Plus, it was just a few months ago she and I had a discussion about the effectiveness of birth control pill. Now I know why she fought so hard, she planned this ish whether he wanted to or not.
2nd, wasnt she just saying how hubby had to lay off workers due to hard times? Now she comes up with this?
Listen, this is why you have to check a chick hard and let her know that this kind of ish will have you cold and lonely. I’m not sleeping with a fuggin enemy.
Staceye you can act like anything you want but I’m gonna put you to the test. I’m gonna require you do things that only a chick that wants to get down with me will do. I can do that because what you’re asking me to do is give you everything I have, therfore I can demand everything I want.
For Real Know what your market is not what you want your market to be Dayuum, I should have thought of that. SMH

Truth is correct. It is one of the hardest but most necessary things to do, and that is do a real, legitimate, painfully honest, self-evaluation. If you want to attract the hottest dude, you have to be the hottest chic (or at least close), if you want a snappy dresser, then look at yourself in the mirror. If you want a dude with money, ask yourself what you do or have that would deserve his attentions more than the next lady.
Whether we like it or not, it is a competition and if we do not have the required assets, then find another sport.

Cee thats what I’m saying. Wasn’t no bam. She had it on her mind and made it so. Of all the fuggin chicks out these are the worst. Talk about being a team player and all the while running there own plays. Btw, this is her 1st with Mase.
Lesson to fellas, check your chick early, often and late. If you aren’t checking her she’s checking you.
Melo that chick is trying to convince herself that shyt is right at home. Thats why she couldnt answer the question, she couldnt. We’ll let her keep playing Claire Huxtable til she realizes how much she despises ol boy for not being dude #1 or Whitebread. Thing is, we shouldn’t be hard on her, its dude that must have some major self esteem issues for signing up for that program. I can get treated like shyt from anyone, I’m not marrying a chick to do it.

Lurker No. For REAL I don’t understand my market. How do I figure out my market?
Here is are some examples but they are not an absolute like everything on this planet. However, these examples are 98% true if you are honest with yourself:
If you are ugly don’t go chasing after pretty. - That beauty is in the eye of the beholder was written by an ugly person. - Trust me everyone knows ugly when they see it. Ugly dude meet ugly chick.
If you are overweight don’t go to the gym and push up on a fit and in shape person. - Let me take a minute to speak about the word THICK. If you are larger than a size 12 you ain’t THICK!!! Overweight dude meet overweight chick.
If you are 5’2 don’t go chasing after 6’6. - All due respect to PG he is the exception and not the rule - Short dude meet short chick (Oh and how tall you are in your 19’ heels is just stupid)
If you are dumb and stupid don’t go chasing the smart and intelligent. - Remember stupid is as stupid does so if he or she is dealing with you guess what - Stupid dumb dude meet stupid dumb chick.
Moral of the story be honest with who and what you are and then you will find your market. I know the women lib movement, Oprah, and all these self help books tell you that you are a beautiful smart woman but don’t listen to them look in the mirror and trust your eyes. Then you will be happy. Which is all that really matters.
