Dear He Say / She Say:

A sister told me she wanted a man who is fine, intelligent, well-paid and has a good sense of humor. Sounding like me, I made my move and was kicked to the curb. I found out later she hooked up with a unemployed rapping ruff neck? What's up with that?

Dear Dissed and Pissed:

When a woman says she wants a man to fulfill her needs, she should make sure her basic needs aren't lyposuction, a hair transplant and a large bag of gravy train. So many women looking for Mr. Right never take into consideration whether they are worthy of Mr. Right's attention. It's the same mentality that causes so many people to try to live a Dom Perignon lifestyle with a Snapple income. I mean, a sister may be fine on the outside, but you have to check out what's going on inside her head, before you draw the conclusion that she is Ms. Right. Instead, she may be Ms. Right-Now and not be the first choice to be the mother of your children. The most painful thing in the world is to have a fine woman hiding in the bushes outside your house. What a waste? Two words of warning, my brother? Lorena Bobbitt. But she was clear from the jump, she said she wanted one kind of man, but allowed an abusive one in her life. On the other hand, if you, my brother are walking around with 3 teeth in your head but love eating corn on the cob, maybe you're due for self analysis! Remember the brothers that star on Eyewitness News screaming, "Revlon, Dark and Lovely and Flex Balsam Shampoo are the devil's tools!" are usually the ones whom the neighbors swear were so fine, quiet, intelligent, athletic with a good sense of humor. But I am sure you are one of those good brothers we don't hear enough about. Here is my advice. Get with some sisters who will value you just as much as they value themselves. Get on over to a FlirtingTime.soiree!

Dear Dissed and Pissed:


If you are really all that, what's your phone number? On second thought, I can't believe 'oh ye a little self-esteem' are still checking for the sister after she kicked you to the curb. I know I may have to tear up my sister card, but some of my sistas aren't as honest as they could be. 9 times out of 10 after they itemize what they want, they usually settle for the jailbird-mack daddy with bad credit and a bad attitude. They are walking billboards for benign neglect. Some believe they are modern day Kizzies, self-righteously carrying trifling brothers, snuggled to our bosom to the Promise Land. But the sooner we stop singing the old Negro spirituals the sooner we can open a window in our lives for a good man to climb in. (Just make sure it ain't 2 o'clock in the morning! That's something else entirely.) Unless you think that soap and mouthwash are for special occasions, the sister you met may be attracted to drama. Now I'm not saying you should enroll in the Ike Turner seminar "30 Days to an Ass-Whupping". But some sisters attract the behaviors of men they believe they are entitled to have. Or design a relationship that confirms their opinion of men. For example, we may be at a party and lock eyes with a divine image of a man, who returns our interest, but who also has a woman on his arm but we slip him our phone number anyway. When he calls later, of course, everything is gonna be groovy, but after Brother Man gets up in the kool-aid and stops returning our calls to his pager; we forget how we met him 'in de beginning.' Then we start whining that there are no good men out there. The man showed us he was a snake when we met him. Everything including men are consistent from beginning to end. But then we say he wasn't like that in the beginning? Of course, he was, but we weren't listening. We were out planning our bridal registry! So my brother, move on, keep a supply a breath freshener and make sure you keep hope alive, when you meet the beautiful sisters at FlirtingTime soirees.
