FIVE REASONS YOU MAY WANT TO CONSIDER YOUR SINGLE FRIENDS ADVICE....
When it comes to giving relationship advice, the question of credibility, who has it and who doesn’t, will eventually come up. Most of us have a core group of friends who we can talk to about anything we’re going through. How we choose which friend to talk to is based on a myriad of factors. Sometimes they already went through exactly the same situation through which we went. Other times, they’re just more comforting than the others, and we know they’ll tell us what we want to hear.
Whatever factors we use to determine who we seek out for advice on relationships is valid, but there is one reason people choose not to go to their friends about a situation and it drives me crazy:
Their friends are single.
Below are five reasons why the next time you’re in need of some relationship advice or some dating directions, your single friend may be the best person to talk to.
They May Not Know About Relationships But They Know You
There’s no such thing as a relationship expert, but it’s undeniable some friends are experts on who we are as individuals. When I need to talk to someone about a relationship I’m going through, I don’t care about their relationship status with anyone but me. One of my best friends in the world is one of the singlest guys in the world (yes, singlest), and I always go to him when I need some guidance about a woman I’m seeing. Why? He knows me and all the advice he gives is based on what he knows about about me.
They’re Single For A Reason
I’ve always said this: Couples are not dumb, single people are smart. Your single friend who doesn’t get into a relationship every season or hasn’t been in one in some time may actually be doing something right. Consider that the next time you think they have nothing valuable to say about your relationship.
They Saw Everything
Consider the friend may be single, but they saw enough interaction between you and your partner to know exactly what they’re talking about.
They Care About Your Happiness; That’s It
Our best friends just want to see us happy and help us avoid anything that can make us unhappy. They say misery loves company, but no one loves miserable company. If your single friend is advising you to leave and move on, they’re not doing it because they want you to be single, they’re doing it because they want you to be happy.
Your Friends In Relationships Are Idiots

WORDS OF WISDOM FROM MRS. JACQUELINE KENNEDY ONASSIS....
• The first time you marry for love, the second for money, and the third for companionship.
TOO CYNICAL TO DATE....
I’m sure you already know this but there are a lot of bitter single
people in this city. After so many dating games and dating
misadventures, some people tend to become cynical.
What’s really ironic is when you are lucky enough to meet someone who
won’t run game and act shady, what happens? Some people question it!
A guy calls when he says he will, and she wonders if he is too eager.
I woman wants to do special things for a guy and suddenly she gets
tagged as desperate.
I know we all have some battle scars, but how do we stop being so
bitter and cynical about it?
What do you do to stay optimistic and hopeful?
How do you know when to take a risk on someone and still be cautious?

WORD OF THE DAY....LOVE JONES
Urbandictionary.com describes the term ‘Love Jones’ as “an overwhelming desire or attraction for someone”.[5] In the film, the character Darius Lovehall describes it as a “gravitational pull, rendering one helpless to its power”. A Love Jones is equivalent to being hit by cupid's arrow or love at first sight. It calls forth the idea that fate or divinity is responsible for bringing two people together.
MS. SISSY HOUSTON'S LAST MESSAGE TO WHITNEY.....HEARTFELT
I never told you that when you were born, the Holy Spirit told me that you would not be with me long. And I thank God for the beautiful flower he allowed me to raise and cherish for 48 years.
Rest, my baby girl in peace.
Signed, Mommie

Recognizing Things For What They Are NOT What I Want Them to be
I wrote a piece a few months back called “We Want it to Be ONE WAY…But Its The Other Way” and it was that point in this past year that I had to learn to recognize things for what they were right in front of me. I can only live in what is happening today. One can want or wish for something but the only way we can have real control is be recognizing what is going on at this present time. You have look at people and situations and see them for what they are. When you really take into account what they are you can decide what decision to make. I felt myself many times wishing for people and things to be a certain way and it blinded me in my decision-making. The only thing you can do is control your decisions and how can you can control the decisions if you don’t look at the facts and not hyperbole.

7 THINGS MY GROWN HAS LEARNED THIS YEAR.....GOOD SHIT
Yesterday marked my 31st birthday. Yeah, I look young as member of Young Money but my spirit is one as old as an ex-member of the O’Jays. This past year I have learned a lot not only about myself but the world as a whole have observed life through different lenses. Living and learning is an everyday struggle for all of us. Okay maybe I can take it too far with my insatiable need to Google random things. I sat back the other day and jotted down some random things I learned this past year. These are some of the seven I came up with.
Eddie Long will forever be one of the funniest people.
If the Da Bishop as I call him is not molesting boys, being crown king, or rocking one of the most ridiculous curl toupees in modern history. He has put himself in the precipice of being the poster child of the idea of the Mega Church having kinks in the armor. Eddie Long has given us all years of material with his antics. Along with the comedy of Eddie Long I realized that looking at his congregation being in full swing that they don’t see the comedy in the “King” Eddie Long as I do.
People take me way more serious than I thought.
This is something I totally understand and get. I have won a few awards and have spoken a few places but some people are taking me more serious than I even take myself which is something I have to be more cognizant of. I realized this most when I wrote the posts “Not Having Sex Before Marriage is a Setup For Failure” and “Herman Cain and Uncle Ruckus Same Person?” Not only did these posts get many comments all over the web but a received a multitude of emails anywhere from “You are on point” to “Throw yourself into moving traffic”. Maybe it’s just because I’m still the same Ol’ G like Ginuwine said where I didn’t notice it but I have learned now that people are watching. I definitely have to start watching how I say things. A brotha not trying to do a Roland Martin or Jason Whitlock.
Most of us can’t look past our “First World” complaints
Many of us claim too much about “First World” problems. I see so many people (including myself sometimes) who float around upset because of BS issues. We feel that because we don’t have an I-Phone 4S, the new Jordans, a new whip, the deluxe apartment in the sky, can’t pop bottles in the club, etc that we aren’t winning at life. By no means am I saying that we shouldn’t strive to do better things but we gotta quit worrying about things that have no bearing on who we are. I think about the guy who gave his daughter a lesson on having BS “first world” grips and it makes me even wake up.
Seasons Change Things Rearrange
They say that some people and things are only for a time period. I have always believed that but this past year I have realized that my pseudo Peter Pan philosophy is really on the brink of extinction. I always prided myself being able to keep up with all my friends and comrades but it feels like I barely have time to chop it up as much with them as used to. When I was younger I had that hip hop music video dream of me and all my boys in the club altogether throwing ones and pouring champagne on random women like we were remaking a Luke video. But, time changes and everyone (including myself) interests change and evolve to suit our own direction and purpose. I have learned that those of us who are able to adapt to this and still keep our friendships intact are the key.
Everything that is beautiful isn’t always good
I have always known that just because something looks good doesn’t mean it is good. But, I have learned that many times in life that the things that look the most good may have the most issues to it. For instance, that Amber Rose chick she has a lot of baggage and maintenance to go with the big butt and a smile. You know that Beemer you covet so much it takes a lot of money to maintain it. I have learned that the quote I have always held to my heart is becoming so much truer… “Everything beautiful isn’t always good. But something good is always beautiful.”
Niggaracity is here to stay
Yeah, I have somewhat given up on the good fight against just nigga ish I see everywhere. I haven’t given up the fight totally but I have also accepted that there will always be a lowest common denominator of society of any and every race. I have learned that will always be a sector of the community but my job is try to educate, inform, and give joy to those who are willing or wanting to learn more. Like I said I am not giving up the good fight of upliftment I am just refocusing it instead of getting upset and random YouTube and world star hip hop videos.

The only thing you can do is control your decisions and how can you can control the decisions if you don’t look at the facts and not hyperbole.
I have settled into my 30s and realized that being this grown ass man is a lot harder but a beautiful struggle I am willing to undertake.
