What's Wrong with Them?

 

So I've been in Atlanta a little over a year now and when I first got here I didn't do anything. I met a guy that I put my all into and he put his all into another woman. HUH Go figure, this is Atlanta, the "Playing Field", some of you may wonder why do I call that. Well, thats because this is the land where a man can pick and choose to date six to eight women a week. Atlanta, the city of showoffs where everyone has to be in the "IT" crowd, the city where  thirty year old men have roommates, and the city of opportunity. What kills me is that a woman is okay with the fact her dude or boo has other women and thats okay if your casually "DATING". What I don't like is the guy that invites all his women to the same place and he thinks it's okay. So where do I fit in, I honestly don't know yet  every now and again I'll show my face with my girls and hang out but the majority of the time its work and home. My girls and I all have the same outlook on Atlanta and the men as I'm sure most women do, but like I said I don't like the man who invites all his women in the same place at on time. I'll share my experience with you.
   I'm born and raised in Houston ,Tx and the way I was raised may have been different but my mother always taught me to hold my ground, have my own  backbone, don't depend on no one, and NEVER let a man disrespect you. I met a guy and of course you get those texts that say "BABY I MISS YOU COME AND SEE ME". I just laugh at those because its game most of the time. But anyway my reply was I'm out of town, which I was, but I never said when I was coming back. Now let me remind you this is a guy that said he wasn't talking to anyone. Well anyway, I come back and go to a place with my homegirl and as we walk in I see him with a chick. I mean I can't be mad because we aren't dating or even together but the look on his face makes him look so guilty. He gets all big-eyed in the face because  he was caught with someone after he told me he wasn't seeing anyone but me hmm, I guess. So what happens, my girlfriend goes to speak and I walk behind her. They speak, then he proceeds to shake my hand and say "hey".. LOL shake my hand but any other time he's quick to give me a hug. Second sign of guiltiness but I'm looking at him with a straight face but laughing in my head. Guys are extremely funny. Throughout the night after I walked off he just kept looking, it took for the girl to leave for him to come over and start a conversation. Negative, you will not come and talk to me after she leaves; you should've talked while she was there. Then he had the nerve to ask me to come over, I looked at him and  said "You need to call back the chick that just left and ask her to come over because you have the wrong one." That's the disrespect I'm talking about, what makes you think you can even approach me after that happened about coming over. Have you lost your mind!!! What I want to know is who okayed you to be that way, I mean does it look like I would go for something like that. Really?! I just don't understand where they get this cockiness from. The bouncer looks at me and says. "I cant believe you did that to him, he's not use to being told "NO" by chicks." I mean to me if you have the balls to even approach me like that you are really brave because I am not the one. Don't Play!
Some people may call it whatever it is you want but I have respect for myself and the next person will too! I mean its nothing wrong with dating different people because you have to find the right one for you, just don't lie about it. KEEP IT REAL!!! What a guy needs to understand is we respect you a lot more if your Honest!!

Sincerely,  
A Single Lady
