So with the recent conversations, lack of conversations, whack conversations, whack opening lines and just craziness that has gone on this last lets see few weeks. . .I have some observations. Some things just aren’t acceptable, just plain stupid, unnecessary. . .No random order just things that come to my mind when recapping my encounters with people since I don’t know what to call a male who is not yet a man.
1. If you gonna meet me for a meal please pull yourself together. Don’t get up to meet me for breakfast and come out with your clothes all wrinkled, your hands ashy enough to make me think you were working behind the counter kneading the dough for the biscuits. That aint cool. If I can get up and get dressed and pull myself together so should you. Don’t get mad if we are out and I don’t stop when you start yelling that "yo shorty crap". I am taller than most women and men. I don’t talk to guys with sagging pants gold teeth or rundown shoes. If you stopped to try and speak to me that means you like what you see. Don’t you think I should like what I see too? I don’t like seeing your underwear. . . Dude that aint cute . . . I’m just saying. I’m just saying
2. If you are talking to a woman do not talk to her about licking anything on her body the first. How the heck do you come up with the things that come out of your mouth? Think about what you’re saying. Even if it’s a joke to you its nothing more than lame stupid and disrespectful to me. I’m just saying. . .
3. If you are unsure of what a word means please don’t make your own definition. I'm pretty smart and I aint buying it. Platonic does not mean " I won’t lick anything unless you ask me too to make sure we stay strictly platonic" . This is just plain foolishness. . .the same foolishness I mentioned in item 2. I’m just saying. . .if I need and want that I can handle the necessary arrangements to get it.
4. Don’t say you gonna do something if you already know you aint. Yeah if you are not going to call then don’t say you gonna call. If you aint gonna keep rubbing my feet everyday don’t start because I’m gonna be expecting it everyday. This moves me to #5
5. Don’t start something you can’t finish. Don’t try to impress me with words or preplanned deeds. Be you from the start, do what you do. This will keep us both safe and sane. I’m not saying I’m like Jazmine Sullivan and will start throwing stuff and bust the windows out your car. . .I’m just saying I can see why she did it.
6. If you tell me you’re scared of me then I’m gonna run with it. I’m me. I’m different. I don’t try to intimidate but if I do scare you please don’t get mad at me when I tell you that it’s best for us to not even try to get to know each other. I have a dry sense of humor. I’m pretty direct and say what’s on my mind. If that scares you, run. It’s ok. I promise I won’t chase you which moves me to #7 my final point for today.
7. I aint chasing you dude. Either you call or you don’t. Either you make our date or you don’t. Either you will or you won’t. Don’t tell me to keep calling till I get you. I aint no bill collector. I’m not your momma trying to find out if the baby is alright. You want to go out then you can call me like you did before to set a date. You miss that date don’t worry I wont delete your number. I will show it to you the next time we run into each other to make sure you know that I don’t chase men. . .I’m just saying. I’m too old for that one and that’s not what ladies do.
8. Last and final point I think. . .for now anyway. I’m a pretty good well rounded grounded hardworking independent fun loving person but don’t get it twisted. You cross me and the other side of me, the side a friend of mine calls Saul, will come out. Others know me as Greg Everett. My daddy don’t play and neither do I. I will love you with all my heart but you hurt me, you mess up. . .its game on. I take good care of me. I respect me. I love me. I don’t hurt me so why would I let you mess over me. . .
I’m just saying. . . .free your mind, get it off your chest, start your own list. You will feel so much better.
I'm just saying. . .
This is good J. More women need to set ground rules and standards and stick by them. The only reason people settle for something, especially women , is because they don't think they are worth it or deserve better. Before jumping into any relationship dating, business or otherwise you have to know who you are and what your worth, and stick to it, accept no compromise!!
