—getting a promise ring from your boyfriend for Valentine’s Day is a sign that you need to move on. Sorry. I’m not one for convention, but a grown man has no business buying a promise ring for a grown woman, especially if she has just carried...

Ladies...

We really do need to start uplifting each other. I was talking to a friend the other day. She is the most gorgeous, kindest, sweetest chick I know. She’s there for me whenever I need her. She was telling me about how this guy told her she is beautiful, and she was surprised.
I couldn’t believe that it shocked her. I told her, “How could you be surprised?...
Dating app's on Facebook?
WTF.
DON’T DO IT.
Do you really want to explain to your family that you downloaded a fake application on a social networking website in order to find random girls/guys to date? I’d rather admit I met someone in a bar.

YOUR HUSBAND/WIFE IS NOT ON A REALITY TELEVISION SHOW.
PLEASE do not have a DTR (define the relationship) with your girl or your man when you are under the influence. I know a glass of wine, or a favorite beverage of choice, is tempting when you’re nervous but DON’T DO IT. You may have the ability to to be more honest as usual, or even say what you need to say, but how reliable can your words truly be? The next day you will look back and...

See? Truth spoke!
I am understanding the importance of treating others the way I want to be treated, more and more, every single day. If I want someone to fight for me, I have to be ready to fight for them. If I want someone to be patient with me, I must exude patience. If I want to be with someone who has spiritual maturity, I must nurture my spiritual journey. Who am I to have any expectations if I do not set...

GUESTBREAKER: An Adorable Baby With Down Syndrome Waved At You And You Didn’t Smile Or Wave Back
Our sexual chemistry was clearly undeniable as we stood next to each other waiting for our luggage at the airport baggage claim. After all, we smiled at each other once. It was only a matter of time before we got our suitcases mixed up and I had to track you down at your house to switch bags only to...

One More Thing...
If a woman is telling you that you will one day make a lady very happy, but she isn’t dating you…SHE’S NOT INTERESTED.
AND
Telling a girl she is beautiful everyday, after she’s told you she’s not interested, will not make her like you. It’s just creepy.
MEN! LISTEN UP!
If you want to date a girl, you MUST ask them on a date. What a concept! If you do not know that a girl is interested, ask her out and she will let you know. Asking a lady on a date means you say, “May I take you on a date?” or “May I please take you to dinner?”
“Hanging out” is not a date. If you tell a girl you want to “hang out” she is...

Has anyone seen the show Teen Mom on MTV?
WOW. Literally, no words. Can you imagine being 16, having a baby, a baby for a boyfriend, no (high school) education, the list obviously goes on and on…..! I think this is the most depressing thing I have ever seen. I can’t imagine kids now, in my twenties, let alone as a teenager. I look at my sixteen year old sister and literally become...
“This is EXACTLY why men should NOT get married before they are thirty. Or ever.”
– My mom as she is watching some douchebag on Top Chef
I'm a hit with men over the age of 50.
old man: Can I tell you something?
me: yeah...sure
old man: you are the prettiest girl I have seen all day.
me: (blushing and awkardly laughing) well its only 1:18...you got a lot of day left to say that.
old man: no no...I can tell you put some work in, this (pointing to me) just doesn't happen.
me: ha, well I did....
old man: I can tell, whatever you did...its working on me. You're beautiful. I'm serious.
me: (blushing and nervously laughing) thanks.....
Embrace it!!
you go girl;)
The More You Talk, The More I'm Right Cont.
Now he’s asking me what I’m thinking. This has GOT to be a joke.
The More You Talk, The More I'm Right
So there is a guy, who shall remain nameless, who is 25 years old. He is the type who REALLY wants to get married. He talks about things he wants to do with his future wife, what he wants his wedding to be like, his future kids, his future house, blah blah blah. When we first started conversing on more than a leader-volunteer basis, he asked me question after question, like he was checking them...

So I meet a guy through a friend of mine and I’ve see him a few times within the following month. We have great talks when we do get together and a really great connection. I saw him this weekend at a Christmas party and he kissed me on the cheek good night. So my question is — when...

Sunday Morning Soul Food
I am currently reading Steve Harvey’s book Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man. I know I know, sounds questionable. But after much prodding from my very wise older sister, I decided it was worth a shot. Let me tell you, this book is the TRUTH. I wanted to share an excerpt from the first chapter, which breaks down all we need to know about men. It’s lengthy but so worth the read.

this seems like a good time to plug my sister’s new blog . based partly of an article i wrote, and mostly off a speech she wrote about men not being ready for marriage until after their twenties, its a humorous approach to lamenting about the lameness of guys who think they know, but really have no idea. follow and enjoy.
p.s. aggie, YOU’RE the best.
