Yeah... the IceWoman Cometh (again)

So, this guy that I have dismissed not once, but three times already decides he wants to try his luck yet again. This is the same guy that told me that I need "a baller in my life" a while ago because he was too cheap to take me out to dinner... and he asked me where I wanted to go!

So now, I am chatting with him on FaceBook and he still wants to see me.. *scratching head* ... I REALLY don't know what he was thinking about coming that route with me again after the last time. Yeap, I did cuss him out. Maybe its me and my old-fashioned upbringing... I will let you be the judge for yourself. Below is a copy of the FaceBook email that we exchanged. I will use his initials only for not putting him on full blast.

becaus eu are spoiled
(side note: I will forgive you for not using spell check, but he lit the fuse to the dynamite with the word spoiled)

I cannot help the fact that every guy that I dated was a gentleman, knew how to treat me, and spoiled me.

see nobody is supposed to be spoiled that's the problem these days everybody lookin for a free ride
(side note... and boom goes the dynamite...)

Adrian Spruill October 26 at 5:08pm
who said a free ride???? Let me be perfectly clear....
I was taught by the men in my life (father, uncles, older cousins) that if a guy is interested in a woman that they are going to treat her right. When a man asks a woman out, he is going to take her out, on his dime, to show her that he is interested in her.

Now....
When you asked me for a date to go out, I told you that a dinner and a movie is a very basic date. You actually became appalled at the fact that is what I wanted to do. You stated that you wanted to go to the pool hall, get some hot wings and a pitcher of beer and chill out, AFTER you said that I need a baller in my life. That is something that I do with my friends when we want to relax after a hard day at work. If we have been dating for a time, then it is all good that we do that.

Now here is some food for thought. Everyone, including myself, likes to be spoiled every once in a while. Being spoiled does not equal to a "free ride". Spoiling your woman can be a simple as:
- sending her a text message saying I miss you.
- romantic car ride down Route 29 to a winery.
- going to her favorite museum on the mall
- surprising her with flowers
- rubbing her feet after a log day of work
- cook her favorite meal, or any meal for that matter
If you know how to spoil your woman, then she will know that she is appreciated by you.

Was I too harsh?? In my mind, nah.....

damn... monday again...

I finished another Monday in my pursuit of Fridays. But my weekend was really fun! I wnt to my women's networking function, then hung out with some others over on U street. I realized that I need to revisit the U Street corridor. It has really been overhauled and it is actually a destination in DC. Now I have to check out Twins Jazz and a couple of places there, as well as go get a half-smoke from Ben's Chili Bowl (yum).

Then I went and checked out Arena Stage. I was spellbound. The last time I was in the there, I went to see Joe Turner Come and Gone. I'm kinda upset that I didn't bring my 35mm to take pictures, but it will be a great destination for theatre in DC.

So now I am on my way to my humble abode. As I cross the Potomac into DC, I will allow my mind to wander.
