Dear Fly Guy,

Ms. S

Dear Ms. S,

Your letter was pretty long, so I’ll keep my answer simple and to the point … this guy is married. Period. And the family that he’s renting a room from is his real family. That’s all I have to say on this one. I trust that you know what your next move should be.

The Fly Guy

Loneliness…

It’s an emotion that’s never really welcomed, but sometimes needed. Moments in life arise where it’s actually healthy to experience the emptiness of having no one in your life. In those painfully uncomfortable moments, you’re granted the solitude to reconnect with faith, reconnect with life, and reconnect with your unique understanding of who you are and what you want. Embrace that clarity … and embrace all that you can learn from the loneliness.

Right now, do me a favor and close your eyes. Take in this moment, and forever remember it. And when that special someone comes along, appreciate them for who they are, and for where you’ve just come from.

In honor of this moment, I thought I’d take it back to a song that poignantly expresses where some of you may be right now. It’s a personal favorite of mine … Troop’s “Spread my Wings.” Enjoy.

Fly Lyrics

I’ve imagined faces of many lovers
To ease the pain of having no one in my life
And I’m tired of being undercover
It’s time to navigate my feelings tonight

The sky is calm, the stars are bright
What’s better than to be in flight
I’ll relax my mind and be at ease.
And let this journey set me free

Spread my wings and fly away
To a place that I long for.
And my heart will be the pathway
I’m searching for a love that’s ever more

2nd Verse
I often wondered how I managed
Always searching but not finding a true heart
What does it take to find me a lover
I’m hoping that I don’t have to fly too far.

The sky is calm, the stars are bright
What’s better than to be in flight
I’ll relax my mind and be at ease.
And let this journey set me free

Spread My Wings

So Tiger Woods finally made a public appearance to give the world the apology they’ve so desperately been waiting for. In the aftermath, while commentators analyzed the sincerity of his words, I could only sit back and laugh. Why you may ask? Well, that wasn’t the real apology—at least not the one that Tiger was initially prepared to give.  You see, last night Tiger called me to practice his speech, and the words that came out of his mouth would have forever damaged his career… I just couldn’t let that happen to my boy.

So after a long night of revisions, and endless amounts of coffee, we finally got it right. Listen; the public can never know what Tiger really wanted to say. But since you’re like family, and I know you won’t tell anyone, I figured I’d give you a bit of insider information.  Here’s what Tiger really wanted to say…

_____________________________

Tiger Quote #1 “Many of you in the room are my friends. Many of you in this room know me. Many of you have cheered for me, or worked with me, or supported me, and now, every one of you has good reason to be critical of me.”

What Tiger Really Said: “A lot of you in this room have made money off of me. But ever since the sh*t hit the fan, you turned your back on me. That’s cool though. I’m not tripping … but I am taking names. And when I’m back on top, I better not see any of you at the house when it’s time to barbecue. All of you traitors can kiss my Caublasian ass with your tongue out.”

_____________________________

Tiger Quote #2“Elin and I have started the process of discussing the damage caused by my behavior. As she pointed out to me, my real apology to her will not come in the form of words.”

What Tiger Really Said: “Elin has been cursing my ass out, and making me buy her a lot of expensive sh*t, so I really need you guys to forgive me so I can get back to playing golf. When Kobe messed up, he still got to play and collect checks. Do you really think he was flying back from the courtroom to play just because he loves the game? Hell no, he was trying to pay for all of those bills that Vanessa was running up.  So cut me some slack … my chick is sucking me dry.

_____________________________

Tiger Quote #3 “Thirteen years ago, my dad and I envisioned helping young people achieve their dreams through education. This work remains unchanged and will continue to grow. From the Learning Center students in Southern California, to the Earl Woods Scholars in Washington, D.C., millions of kids have changed their lives, and I am dedicated to making sure that continues.”

What Tiger Really Said: “Keep f*cking with me, and these niggers black kids are gonna lose their scholarships … I’m not playing.”

_____________________________

Tiger Quote #4 “I knew my actions were wrong. But I convinced myself that normal rules didn’t apply. I never thought about who I was hurting. Instead, I thought only about myself. I ran straight through the boundaries that a married couple should live by. I thought I could get away with whatever I wanted to. I felt that I had worked hard my entire life and deserved to enjoy all the temptations around me. I felt I was entitled. Thanks to money and fame, I didn’t have far — didn’t have to go far to find them.”

What Tiger Really Said: “You have no idea what it’s like to be young and rich. And I’m not talking about Diddy/Jay-Z rich, because I’d probably kill myself if my bank account ever dropped that low. I’m talking about being the most wealthy athlete of all time … did you hear me, of all time!!!  When you have that kind of pull, the bitches are just there for the taking. And when I say bitch, I mean it in a respectful way, except when I’m referring to the bitches that told on me. The bottom line is that the power went to my head, and I got caught. Period.”

_____________________________

Tiger Quote #5 “Today, I want to ask for your help. I ask you to find room in your hearts to one day believe in me again. Thank you.”

What Tiger Really Said: “Alright now, I’m about to walk off this podium. And when I do, I don’t want to hear about this sh*t anymore. Don’t come to my house, don’t mess with my wife and my kids, and don’t follow my mom. If you do, then my black side is gonna have to come out. Trust me, you don’t want to see me when I’m Earl Woods Jr. I’m out this bioyitch!!!”

_____________________________

The Fly Conclusion: So that was a glimpse of Tiger’s real speech. Love him or hate him, the brother was prepared to come real today … I just couldn’t let that happen.

Written By: Sarah Miller

We women enjoy talking—and after a lifetime of dating, you should have the flattened cilia in your ears to prove it. Once things turn serious though, you’re going to have serious conversations. The good news: You don’t have to get pulled into drawn-out discourse or end up arguing or revisiting the same exchange you thought you’d sorted out last week. Mastery is within your reach. Here are the top six questions every woman is hardwired to ask, and when she’s likely to ask them.

_______________________________

“Why don’t we talk anymore?”

Be on the lookout: If there are extended, unexplained silences on her part. It may be her passive-aggressive way of saying, “I’m sick of filling these conversational holes.”

Why is this happening to me? If you don’t erupt hourly with an Old Faithful-like gusher of steaming words and opinions, she’ll imagine that the hot, subterranean stratum of your relationship has cooled.

The response: You will be tempted to refer to your stellar contribution to all the conversations above. You will think about saying, “What do you want to talk about?” Don’t. Applying male logic to female emotion is about as smart as throwing gas on a fire.

“We don’t talk anymore” is unsubtle code for “I’m starting to think you’re a bore, and I wish you’d change my mind.” So start. Ask more questions. Give longer answers. Read a book and tell her about it. You’re undoubtedly fascinating, but you have to market yourself, every day, to ensure she keeps buying.

_______________________________

“Are you thinking long-term?”

(May also be stated as “Are we getting married or what, you giant a-hole?”)

Be on the lookout: If a) you’re dating a girl who is definitely the marrying kind; b) more than 2 years have passed; or c) she’s over 30.

Why is this happening to me? Because your girlfriend is annoyed at herself for having potentially wasted years of her life.

The response: She wants to know when she’s getting her damn engagement ring and, in the absence of a satisfactory answer, when you’re coming to get your stuff. Spare her your feelings on this one. If the answer isn’t weighed in carats, she’s not interested.

_______________________________

“Should we move in together?”

Be on the lookout: If she’s been saying things like “God, I am so sick of walking around with my underwear in my bag.”

Why is this happening to me? In an ideal world, after too many nights of “my place or yours?” both of you would blurt out, at the very same time, “Let’s live together!” This not being an ideal world, and women being more inclined to demand momentum, it’s often her suggestion.

The responses: If you’ve been thinking the same thing, call the movers, and good luck to you. If not, tell her everything you imagine you’d enjoy about living together: waking up to her, seeing her even if you didn’t have specific plans.

This creates a favorable environment for expressing your reservations, about which you should be specific. Tell her you’ve always lived with roommates, and you want some time to live alone. Bring up pursuits—writing, meditation, compulsive masturbation (maybe not)—that require a degree of independence, but make sure you’re already involved in them. “I can’t live with you because I have to start my screenplay” is weak.

_______________________________

“Tell me about your family.”

Be on the lookout: When you’ve been together long enough—3 months—that she expects a steady stream of emotional sharing. You know: Ideas. Feelings.

Why is this happening to me? She’d like to find you fascinating, maybe even deep; but she needs a good backstory to confirm this.

The response: Start with some family photos. Then, at family gatherings, share sensitive “observations” with her to show that you’re emotionally in touch with your family: “My father seems a little lost now that he’s retired.”

_______________________________

“Tell me about your exes.”

Be on the lookout: When she begins relating lengthy anecdotes about her exes. She’s trying to create an atmosphere of mutual sharing, which you, my sadly pussy-whipped friend, are about to fall for.

Why is this happening to me? Because your girlfriend is obsessed. Not with your exes, or even with you, but with herself. She’s not interested in your past relationships per se; she’s interested in what they say about her.

The response: Emphasize that your sizable, but not overly indulgent, love and erotic experience has been in the company of beautiful, talented, smart women. She’ll do the logic: He’s dated women who were beautiful, talented, and smart. Therefore, I am beautiful and talented and smart!

When discussing “how things ended” in the past, present yourself as the man who has never found the right woman to love and understand him, but also the man who has never found a woman quite worthy of his best behavior. It’s all spin.

_______________________________

“Where is this going?”

Be on the lookout: After you’ve had sex but before you’ve agreed not to see other people.

Why is this happening to me? Because the Man Who Is Really Interested and the Man Who Is Really Not Interested have a strange ability to behave identically. We need to know: Do you have the potential to fall in love with us?

The responses: If this is going somewhere: A slight prevarication—”I’m glad we’re talking about this, because I want you to know I am really interested in you”—should work. She needs to hear that you like her specifically, not just that you like having a little company when you’re eating and having orgasms.

If this is going nowhere: Quickly introduce that small part of her who hopes your apathy is actually masking depths of passion to the larger part of her who knows that is bullsh–.

_______________________________

Fly Conclusion: Ok people. Now that it’s been put out there, let’s talk about it? Is it credible advice?

Time to take things up a notch with the following feature by writer Terry Shropshire(@royaletee). Apparently, Terry got tired of the double standard that he witnesses on a daily basis as it pertains to interracial dating among black people. I mean let’s be honest; if I posted pictures of me with a new white girlfriend, I’m sure that I’d probably lose some of my black female readers. (not that I would base my dating life on someone else’s feelings, but the fact still remains.)

By contrast, the same response isn’t felt when a black woman dates a white man. She usually hears responses like “that’s right girl!!! … I think I’m gonna do the same thing!!”

But before I delve into this topic anymore, and end up writing the piece myself, let me turn things over to Terry. Read, comment, share.

Written By: Terry Shropshire

It’s a sight I’ve seen time and time again. A group of black women are sitting at a table in a restaurant, a mall or a hotel. An attractive brother strides by confidently with a white woman and suddenly the temperature drops about 25 degrees.

The sistas’ conversation halt in mid-sentence. They crane their heads in his direction and eye him like a pride of lions sizing up prey. Actually, the women seem to stop breathing altogether. All their energies are channeled into trying to drill large holes into the side of his skull with their hot, hostile glares. The black man, acutely aware that the women are cursing the very air that he breathes, steals sidelong glances at the women but doesn’t dare make direct eye contact.

Black men who date white women are accused of everything short of violating the Patriot Act. They are denounced as Uncle Toms and race-traitors and have to endure social crucifixions. Case in point: when a tabloid recklessly purported that the pro-black actor/author Hill Harper was dating a white woman recently, sisters nationwide were ready to storm Hollywood with pitchforks and torches and hunt Harper like an animal. So startled was Harper that he hastily fumbled out this tweet to his fans:

“4 U guys that asked- I didn’t see TMZ, so don’t know what was said. But Nicole and I are ONLY FRIENDS!! She’s a sweetheart- But just friends!”

Yet, there seems to be much less of an uproar when prominent black women date and marry white men. In fact, in many cases, barely a syllable is uttered. Check out the list and see if you are surprised at the number and the quality of sistahs who’ve crossed the racial isle. Keep in mind that this is just a partial list.

Fly Conclusion: So is there really a double standard? Do black men have a valid argument in the way that they are treated vs. the way black women are treated when it comes to interracial dating? Let’s hear it.

I’ve always done my best to support dope writers, and this moment is no different. Our featured writer for today has crafted a very honest response to Hollywood’s role in the stunted growth of positive, healthy relationships. Enjoy her words, and when you’re done, make sure you support the writer.

Society has played a huge role in our lives since the moment we were born. I can remember watching the videos back in the 80’s and admiring the gorgeous women strutting their long legs and mini skirts across the screen; so much so that I decided to pursue modeling myself. But has media ruined our perception of love and the value of a relationship… the sanctity of marriage? We have powerhouses like P. Diddy promoting sex, lust, and Ciroc, but what would happen if Diddy put the bottle down and campaigned for healthy relationships and marriage before babies? Imagine that, “P. Diddy for Partnerships and Parenting!” I know it may sound lame, but let’s face it; Diddy could sell water to a well so surely people would listen. I know some of you are thinking, “He didn’t follow that protocol himself,” but has it occurred that we could learn from his mistakes? I know what it is though… Ciroc pays and reality does not! What a shame! But MY point is this: Just because Usher ‘Reinvented Sex’ and Justin Timberlake ‘Brought Sexy Back,” it does NOT mean that this is a true vision of how life works. We are so caught up on portraying what we see on television and looking for the “perfect man or woman” (based on that perception) that we may pass up the things that truly matter like loyalty and trust. We say we want a loyal and trusting partner, but when we set out to date, we gravitate towards the total opposite of what we feel we may need. Why is that? Think about it; would it be wise to date a Terrell Owens if you needed stability? Would it be smart to date a Lil Wayne if he is blatantly telling you he wants to “F*ck every girl in the World?” Uhh, the answer is obviously N-O!

Sometimes I wish we could go back to the old school. I wish that we had more wholesome families in the forefront like our First Family, The Obamas. I wish more people took a chance on potential. I wish swag didn’t make the man, and I certainly wish that finances didn’t take precedence. But reality is, in this day and time, these things matter! This is when reasoning comes into play because finances and status should not be the ONLY criteria. Know what you want. With maturity, comes experience and with that experience comes the things you want and need. Can your potential partner fill that position? If they can’t, can they learn to? Who is going to have your back if the chips fall down?

50 Things Women Wish Men Knew

I ran across a feature today that I wanted to share. In it, the piece describes 50 things that women wish men knew. After reading the list, I was a bit confused because I honestly thought that there was one thing that women wished men knew … and that’s how to be psychic.

I’ll probably get in trouble for that one, but hey, it’s the truth. Enjoy the list, then share your thoughts below.

Is it really possible for one celebrity couple to be hotter than the next? Well that’s today’s million dollar question. When it comes to some of today’s hottest couples, who gets crowned homecoming king and queen in your world? Read the profiles and vote below.

_________________________

Descriptions Written By: Nicholas Robinson

President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama – While many couples may be designated as royalty, none are more deserving than Barack and Michelle Obama. The nation’s first black president and first lady are the premier couple of the nation and a powerful example of love for the world.

_________________________

Jay-Z and Beyoncé – Their first love may be music, but their greatest love is each other. Their fierce dedication to protecting their marriage from the media’s prying eyes makes it perfectly clear that hip-hop’s hottest (and most private) couple are the real thing, and like their music they’re here to stay.

_________________________

Will and Jada – Black Hollywood’s reigning king and queen of prestige and power have been blazing a trail of personal and professional success for over a decade now. The pair is not only one of the hottest and sexiest couples around, they are also raising one of the most beautiful and talented families in Hollywood.

_________________________

Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys – They’re the couple everyone is talking about. Born from romance and scandal, they’re the picture-perfect example of a forbidden love affair. The world is aghast that the still married Swizz is carrying on a very public liaison, but these two seem too lost in love to even care.

_________________________

Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian – Their relationship reads like the ultimate fairy tale of high school sweethearts. Hot jock meets super hot girl, they fall in love and become the most popular couple around. Beauty meets brawn and all of Hollywood is watching.

**So it’s time to settle this once and for all: Who gets your vote for the hottest couple?

If you’re in Atlanta, it’s time for you to brave the cold and join me for a night of music, poetry and love. That’s right; I’ve decided to dust off my MC hat as I guide the audience at Kat’s Café through a night of audio love. So make sure you finish your work early today so you can go home, change your clothes, and meet me for an unforgettable evening. Check out the event info below … I look forward to seeing you tonight.

I will never forget her name. It was Jai Miller*. In my mind, she was the perfect woman: beautiful, smart, funny … in short, she epitomized the prototype André 3000 so often sang about. Of course, we were only 16 at the time of our initial encounter, but that didn’t matter. In my pubescent mind, Jai was hands down the crème de la crème.

As study partners in math class, there was always this unspoken tension between us. Sadly, that tension would never be released. Why, you may ask? Well, before I ever got the chance to make my move, our resident football star convinced Jai that he was the man of her dreams. Even at that tender age, she was so sure that he would one day be her future husband. She then tried to act on that belief by offering him the purest Valentine gift she had to offer … her virginity.

I’ll never know how magical that night was for them … nor do I care to know. All I can attest to is the aftermath. A month later, the happy couple was no more, and all that Jai was left with was a broken heart and the herpes she contracted on that fateful night. For an evening that was initially meant to seal a lifelong bond between the two of them, she only walked away regret, and a life filled with prescription medications to treat her outbreaks.

But Jai’s story plays out all too often on Valentine’s Day. As a society, we tend to get so caught up in the commercialized lust of the day, only to lose sight of safety in the process. We fail to realize that one moment of weakness can lead to a lifetime of suffering.

So how can we avoid situations like this? For starters, we can work to limit our sexual partners. In doing so, we greatly decrease the likelihood of being exposed to diseases. In conjunction with the limiting of sexual partners, regular testing should also be instituted — by both parties. And finally, condom use has to become a sexual necessity, not an option.

Now I apologize if it seems like I’m preaching to the choir. That’s certainly not my intention. We’re all adults here, and have been engaging in STD prevention conversations for years — probably as early as my high school years with Jai. But just like her, the smartest people can allow emotions to block their ability to use logic. Even some of today’s biggest celebrities aren’t immune to poor sexual decision making. Just check out this list of celebs rumored to have contracted herpes.

Male Celebrities:
Bill Clinton
Derek Jeter
Brad Pitt
Michael Vick
Robin Williams
Dennis Rodman
Colin Farrell
Jason Kidd

Female Celebrities:
Janet Jackson
Mariah Carey
Sheryl Crow
Joumana Kidd
Paris Hilton
Britney Spears

In the end, I hope this all serves as a cautionary tale when embracing love on Valentine’s Day and beyond. By all means, pursue it wholeheartedly. But please, exercise caution … –dewayne rogers

*Not her real name.
