Boyz II Men- Never Go Away

By The Fly Guy ⋅ February 22, 2007 ⋅ One comment

Why don’t people sing like this anymore? It’s so effortless. They make it look so easy…it kind of reminds me of how Kevin Federline is able to pull off looking homeless.

Fly Lyrics: John Mayer’s “Dreaming With a Broken Heart”

By The Fly Guy ⋅ February 20, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Maybe I should have listened to Martin Lawrence when he lamented that “no one was immune to the trials and tribulations of life.” One such tribulation is that of having your heart broken by a loved one. You put all of your time, trust, and energy into this one person, and then what happens? They [...]

Commitment Issues

By The Fly Guy ⋅ February 20, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Dear Fly Guy,
For the past year, I have given my heart and soul to my girlfriend. From the moment I saw her, I was completely convinced that she was the one for me. There was even a point where we had casual conversations about possibly tying the knot one day. It’s funny how things can [...]

Volume 18- The Fear of Commitment, Part 1

By The Fly Guy ⋅ February 20, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

The Fear of Commitment. Like that omnipresent two-ton pink elephant, it’s something that’s always around, but few people choose to seriously address it. The reason? Maybe it’s just easier for people to believe that their single status is solely attributed to the faults of others.Or perhaps, they’re wandering through life unaware that such a fear [...]

With Valentine’s Day upon us, there’s no better time to introduce a new section called Fly Lyrics. Here I’ll display songs, lyrics, and phrases responsible for shaping many of my views on love. Up to bat first, is the dynamically talented PJ Morton. His song “Today” provides a fitting example of how we should never [...]

Volume 17- Deconstructing Relationship Myths

By The Fly Guy ⋅ February 14, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

There are but three certainties in life. Death, taxes, and Eddie Murphy playing all of the characters in his movie. Those occurrences are virtually money in the bank, but what you can’t count on is fully understanding relationships. Love can be about as confusing as a Lauryn Hill post-Rohan Marley album. A main factor contributing [...]

Cannon’s Concern

By The Fly Guy ⋅ February 13, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Dear Fly Guy,
I must say that normally I’m right in line with all of your relationship views, but last week you really threw me for a loop. Your piece on regular people was in my opinion extremely offensive. There is nothing wrong with being regular. This world would be a much better place if there [...]

A Chat with Gabby

Dear Fly Guy,
A friend recently shared your column with me, and I instantly fell in love with it. Your advice is funny, on point, and you don’t come off too preachy. I just wanted to ask you about a response you gave to one of your readers in Volume 14. You said you didn’t [...]

Volume 16- The Case of the Regular People

By The Fly Guy ⋅ February 6, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Forget about your problems for just one moment and come with me. Where to? I’m attempting to take you to a place where many reside but few are happy. It’s called the U.S.R.P. or the United States of Regular People. The President? I’m not really sure who their leader is, as regular people are about [...]
