This really is my ish right now. Seriously. Anywho I have about 20 minutes to squeeze another post (mind you I'm at work) so this won't be a lengthy bramble.
Anywho, on a previous post http://www.socialedisturbed.com/2008/08/n.html#links I got some pretty in depth responses.
There is a good man in every male you've ever come across.
I believe that, just as I believe there's a low life in every male I've come across as well. I'm trying not to turn this post/blog into a male bashing tirade. It's just sometimes you get so fed up with people (not just dudes) and their bs. This post is NOT for any love birds. It's for the single hustlers such as myself. It gets annoying how you might open up to an individual (especially after ending a previous relationship), being open and honest just to end back up at square one.
Furthermore, if there's a good man in every male, why do they hide it so well? I have no kids & I damn sure ain't about to raise a grown ass man. NO I am NOT being specific about a situation, I'm speaking in general. JUST PUTTING THAT OUT THERE.
Maybe I'm old fashioned, or probably a straight up troglodyte, but is it so hard just to be yourself? Is that asking for too much?
This is basically reason of my alias "socialedisturbed". A lot of people are complete imbeciles, and I can't stomach to be around stupid people. So I'll remove myself from the environment/situation/ relationship as soon as I can. Relationships being the hardest. Stupidity is like a damn airborne disease. But yea...I hate having to remind people (especially men) about sh*t they should already know, & I think that's another problem that I (as well as others) have encountered when dealing with the type of people we attract. Some guys like the women that depend on them, can't live with out them, women they can treat like doormats. It's sh*t they're used to. So when they come across someone who doesn't accept AS MUCH bs as the last and/or next one, I figure they're getting turned off and/or intimidated.
Ok.. I completely lost focus of the topic at hand..AND it's time for me to go... so.. until next time..

Simply stating that theres a lowlife in every man isn't male-bashing. No male should be offended by that statement. The truth is there's a lowlife somewhere in everyone. We all go thru the struggle of trying to supress that part of ourselves and let the good come thru. Its hard. Hell, its hard enough even admitting that lowlife exists. Remember the first time you had a friend tell you about yourself? I mean really get in dat ass and tell you about yourself. What did you do, you flipped and cursed that person out, but then you start to think. You began to wonder if what was said was true. Thats what really hurts. Not so much cause they disrespected you, but cause they were right.
With that said, I dont think you're being a troglodyte by expecting a man to be himself. You have to learn to see a man for who he is, or should I say who they are. When I say they I mean not just the good him, but the lowlife him as well. Especially if the good is having too hard a time surfacing.
You seem to identify with your Marilyn Monroe quote. You openly acknowledge your flaws which is great, as many people are eye deep in denial, or don't know themselves well enough to even recognize them. And you have no problem saying "This is me, like it or bounce". Another priceless quality of a strong black woman.
But some seem to get mezmorized by the glimpse they caught of Prince Charming in Ike Turner. Its hard to see sometimes, but when the lowlife does come out he IS being himself. You gotta look at the good AND the bad. And as dissapointing as it may be, if theres more Ike than you like, you gotta let Them both go.
Its almost as if you gotta recognize the struggle, and see who's winning, good man or lowlife.(chuckle)
Like I said, it takes patience. But if you keep your high standards and demand respect, you will get it.
