Welcome to my world. An altered state of reality in which I sometimes feel as if I am the only one experiencing issues and situations that are ridiculous, funny, frustrating and thought provoking.
Growing up, I was often told the story of a pretty girl who this man fell head over heels in love with and so he married her and whisked her away to his home for them to live happily ever after. That did not happen. Homeboy found out that she not only cannot boil water, but cannot clean, make a bed, wash, iron or hang a curtain. In short order he returned her to her mother’s house with the note “teach your daughter how to be a wife before you unleash you on society.” Ouch!
Many women lament that all that saturates their timelines and direct messengers are con men, thugs, neanderthals, hustlers, panty chasers, married men and bad boys. They claim to want to settle down with a nice guy but why then do nice guys get shafted more often than not?
The term ‘don’t get your panties in a bunch’ should probably be changed to ‘do not go with panties at all’ as with the record breaking heat being felt all over, more and more women are going fully ventilated. It may be a panty less summer for many as woman all over complain about the oppressive heat and its consequences of sweating all over (and under) and the need to feel fresh regardless of the occasion or time of day.
What would hapen if you met a great man who opens your car door, lends you his phone to make calls, introduces you to his family and friends and pays you compliments unsolicited. You are over the moon happy and can see the relationship progressing to the next level but there is just one tiny problem. Him nuh cute! In fact that may be putting it mildly as he has a face best seen through snapchat filters.
