To this I say, GTFOHWTBS!!! ("get the fuck outta here with that bull shit"
for those in the cheap seats.)

See shit like this is what's wrong with hoes... er women these days.
Reading this kinda crap every day breeds thoughts of grandeur and
untouchableness. Then all the girls get together and complain about men and

look around at themselves as apples at the top of the tree.

As I get older my fellow single men and I have it all figured out. We could

easily go and act like we're supposed to and be that ideal man that you'd
love to take home to momma. Really, we can turn that shit on in a
heartbeat. But why? Then all we've done is breed expectations that we have

no intention on living up to. So you tell us, would you rather have us act
a certain way just to make you feel like you've snagged a 'good man' only to

later find out that he isn't all you thought he was, or just be real from
the jump and turn it on around moms?

Sure I can do the occassional romantic evening with rose pedals on the bed,
a bottle of Vueve and shit just to keep you happy, but that shit is not the
norm so quit acting like you expect it to be. We are not highly emotional
and romantic beings by nature. We can be when we have to, but our normal
existence doesn't operate like that. We are not thoughtful, considerate, or

keep your best interests at heart 90% of the time. We do what we gotta do
to stay outta trouble. But it's not because we don't care. We really do.
We just have a difference of opinion on what we should spend our energy
caring about.

get it?
