Crush Update

So I told her...and I got a response back. Wasn't exactly the one I was looking for, but then again when you profess a crush on someone how often do you get the response you wanted? Well, that's off my chest...back to work.

My Latest Crush

This is weird. Not the me having a crush part, just the person who I have the crush on. She and I met while I was at Hampton. She was a classmate of mine. One day she and I just started talking, I forget what sparked it (I think I was trying to get at her roommate). Anyway, she and I exchanged numbers, we chatted, she came through, we DID NOT have sex and that was ok. We still talked throughout the semester on a friend level and then graduation came and went and so all that ended. Flash forward about a year. She had written a book about her life. Some real deep, like Grand Canyon deep shit in there. I remember she posted a segment of it on her MySpace page. And the shit hit me hard. It was about a time she and a guy were "together" and how basically dude raped her. And even though it wasn't about me, that shit hit a serious nerve. Maybe it's because it gave me perspective on how the other side of the coin is ya know? Like when we as men keep trying to push the limit on how far someone will go. We never consider the mental and emotional stain it leaves on a woman. Well after reading that, I definitely made a conscious decision to never be that guy. So I sent her a message saying just that and how I thought back to our encounter in college and how that could be perceived as trying to do too much too soon. So she hit me back saying I wasn't anything like that and how she enjoyed her time with me. Well like I said, that was damn near two years ago and I can't get her off my mind. She's got her own business, she's an award winning author, she's into the church thing. On paper and in person, she's doing it. And I have a crush on her.

Needs

1. Right now I need a chick with low self esteem and no gag reflex.

3. I need Jameil and La to stop cyber harassing me. I'll submit a meaningful blog when I feel like it dammt. Keep it up and I'm gonna report you guys to Al Gore. Remember he did invent the Internet.

4. I need us to stop marching. Noose found on the door of a Black college professor's door...we's marching. Nas is about to release an album called "Nigger"...we's marching. Dog The Bounty Hunter blacking out on his son for dating a Black chick and calling her the title of Nas' new album...we's marching.

5. I need to find a presidential candidate worth voting for.

6. I need to go to church, but I don't want to.

7. I need that "American Gangster" cd like Michael Vick needs Valtrex...and a mistrial.
