Ladies, how many times have you found yourself unfulfilled, unhappy and just plain jilted? Loving a man that clearly doesn’t love you back, giving up the goodies and rewarding someone that you can’t even call on when you need him, let alone count on a movie and a value meal from McDonald’s?
All the while you’re asking God for someone to love you, when you already have someone who does, but he’s just an average Joe?
Charlie shows up and jump-starts your car and gives you ten dollars just because he sees your tank is almost on empty. All the time he’s smiling not showing the slightest bit of frustration having been awakened in the wee hours of the night. He even follows you all the way home to make sure you make it there safely. Then as you’re walking toward the house, he says, “I’m not going to ask to come in since its so late. So I’ll talk to you later”.
You chuckle at the thought and say to yourself, “I just know he didn’t think he was going to come in”.
The next night Tyrell finally calls back and he’s glad you made it home okay. He wants to know if he can come over later and you know what for. You eagerly say, “Yes”, and you take a shower and put on your favorite nightgown hoping he doesn’t stand you up this time.
Ladies, what’s wrong with this story?
How many times have you found yourself in a similar situation? Unfulfilled, unhappy and just plain jilted? Loving a man that clearly doesn’t love you back…giving up the goodies and rewarding someone that you can’t even call on when you need him, let alone count on a movie and a value meal from McDonalds?
All the while you’re asking God for someone to love you when you already have someone who does. But because he’s not as charismatic or as fine, or as witty as a man you would like to have, he’s overlooked, mocked and simply used, for when no one else is around to save you. You ask for a saver and yet you punish the one you get?
I say it is time we ladies give the Average Joe’s a chance! For once and for all, I call out to all the unfulfilled women that are just used when there is a capable and willing good man waiting to love them and I say, “Give the Joe’s a chance at love”. Worse case scenario, he’ll fall in love and do even more for you. At best, you will actually start to love him back. And you can dress him and go to the dermatologist with him and maybe after a little TLC, you’ll find he doesn’t look that bad after all.
Beyonce has if figured out, and so does Janet Jackson and they got the looks and the money to have almost anyone they want. Now it’s our time to give the Charlie’s a chance and drop that low-life, womanizing scum you call your “Lil Buddy or Homie”. He doesn’t deserve you. He’s the one that you should make wait and earn your loving.
So if you’re single and you’re sexually frustrated cause you got that certain itch that needs scratching and you’re not into toys or pleasing yourself. If you’ve got to have a man, call Charlie, because we’ve got to learn to separate sex from emotions anyway. And I believe you’ll be much happier if you do.
