Men Ain't Men No More

 No words.

Chivalry been dead. No shocker there, but men are not men any more. The script has flipped and now they want to be chased, romanced, and treated like a Queen, I mean, no I meant Queen.


So in my real attempt not to be coerced into a relationship, a guy I was talking to (who will remain anonymous) actually told me he wants somebody that wants him too. Now, I'm thinking to myself, "duhhhh, why wouldn't you?."

Then, he continues and asks if I like him because he didn't want to like me unless I liked him too. Now, those weren't his exact words, but in summary that's it. I laughed!

Seriously, how old are we that you are so scared of rejection that you rather look like a punk little boy. I can't respect a man that wants to take the easy route for love. How am I as a woman supposed to respect you and allow you to be a man?


Men ain't men no more. They are too scared of rejection. Too busy still chasing women who don't really care about them, well at least not until they finish spending his money. Too big headed thinking that by chasing their careers, the women will follow. It's true, but only the golddiggers will follow.Too conceited thinking women should cater to them, demanding 10's when they are a 4 and barely look composed.



You can't demand the world, if you aren't willing to give it! Don't let the videos, movies, and other falsehoods fool you. All that glitter is not gold! And money doesn't always attract the best kind of women, you know the type of woman that will ride with you. It only attracts the women that will ride with you until the money is gone then leave you for your homie.


I can easily apply the same unrealistic expectations to women. Let's get real with what we are offering and what we want. Stay focused on your own lane and stop looking at how everyone else is running their race or how their running it.


As far as men, I have no idea how to get back to the days where men were men. I could look up to them instead of now, I shake my head and laugh at the guys that step to me. All I can say, is don't let rejection turn you into a coward. Simply put, what homeboy did to me was pitiful and got him completely dismissed and labeled a crazy.



Deal with your emotional baggage people. Don't talk to someone until you have finally gotten rid of it or minimized the load you carry. And never ever get comfortable.
