Question #1 : You LOST the Number?

Okay, so I’m finally back after so much constant nagging, prodding, and did I mention nagging by someone who will not be mentioned at this time. (Thank You J)

“Look, if I want to talk to someone whose number I’ve lost, I’m gonna text, call, and email anyone I have to get it. I’m not desperate”

So here I am with the second installation of my blog, and this time I will be talking about phone numbers. Not so much in the sense of getting someone’s number, but actually losing their number. The RETRIEVAL process that one has to go through in order to get it back.

SO I ASKED THE QUESTION: IF YOU LOSE SOMEONE’S NUMBER YOU ARE INTERESTED IN, WITHOUT ASKING THEM, HOW WILL YOU GET IT BACK?

• Ask a of yours friend you know that might have it 
• Facebook/Direct Message one of their friends
• Pray that they call you out of the blue

The results were not as startlingly as I expected when I thought about this question.

• Ask a of yours friend you know that might have it        35%
• Facebook/Direct Message one of their friends             12%
• Pray that they call you out of the blue                           53%

But why is that? You say you are interested in the person, but you would rather wait until they think, “let me call them since they haven’t called me in a while”.  From experience, you might be waiting a pretty long time if you catch my drift.

Like this guy name Derek* I know. He had always been into one of his cousin’s female friends, but he never really could see her as much as he wanted to. So when he finally built up enough courage to ask, he did it, and to his own surprise she gave her number to him. He thought so long and hard about what he wanted to tell her that he ended up losing the number before he ever got to call her (to me, that’s pretty whack, but I digress). He was so desperate to talk to her, that he ended up asking his cousin for her help. You know what she told him? “Derek, I’m not gonna help you. If you want that girl’s number, you are going to have to wait until you see her again because it’s not my place.” Now you know Derek was upset, and pleaded with her for hours on end, but nothing came of it. Sadly, the boy had to wait six months before the next time he saw the girl of his so-called “dreams”. By that time, he noticed something. SHE WAS PREGNANT.

The Moral of this story is: DON’T MESS WITH FEMALES THAT GET PREGNANT.

AMEN

Look, if you think someone is right for you, give it a shot to go after him or her because you never know what will happen. They may end up pregnant, or they may get tired of waiting for you to come along. So do yourself a favor and SEE WHERE CHANCE TAKES YOU. Thank you for reading the Somewhat Naked Truth.

Leave me any comments you got, and i'm sure i'll get back to them

Let's Start with an Intro Please

Okay, So I’ve been talking about doing this blog for such a very long time, and now, I’m finally putting my procrastination aside just to throw out this quick but very interesting introduction about yours truly. My name is Bryant, and I attend Morehouse College in Downtown Atlanta ( you never know who is reading this). Since my time in college, I’ve been in some of the most strangest relationships from females that have had so many problems that I felt I was more of their psychologist then their boyfriend (did I mention I want to be a psychologist?) to females that just didn’t understand what it meant to be in a relationship with someone. These past encounters with the opposite sex had me thinking: what is a relationship? Is it taking out a girl you are interested in or it just settling for someone who won’t get on your nerves every night about not calling her back when you said you would? Or is a relationship the time you spend with a female trying to get to know her better right before she tells you that your homeboy is a lot more of her type? Instead of me keep trying to pick my own brain, I thought for a moment and said to myself, “why not ask all of these so-called relationship experts (people who are either in relationships or not in relationships “by choice”*) what they had to say about relationship etiquette and things I just wanted to know about in general?” so I took the time out to write a bunch of questions, and had any and everyone I could give me an answer to them. questions such as “if you think your mate is cheating, how do you handle it” or “if your boyfriend/girlfriend has bad breath, how do you tell them.” Thanks to my charm, personality, and good looks, I was able to get people to respond to my initial survey. So every 3 to 4 days, I will be posting the findings from each and every question I asked, and I hope as more of you begin to read what I have to say, and this blog gets more people subscribing, I hope you all will have questions you will want to know as well so I can get them answered through a variety of investigative ways.

So I say unto all…Welcome…. Welcome…. Welcome, and please do enjoy The Somewhat "Naked Truth"

* I don’t really believe in the whole “by choice” thing. Either someone wants to talk to you, or you are pretty much a lame individual that has to use the excuse as some kind of coping mechanism. I say please do better
