And Again… I am NOT a relationship expert…

However, You already know about the 6th sense thingy… Especially if you’ve already read Sex Language Pt. 1  AND Sex Language Pt. 2. If you have, then you already know where this is going. If not, click and read Parts 1 and 2 and then join the rest of us as I try to answer one question. It’s a question I mostly get asked by women but about 30% of the time, men do ask me too. The question is… “What does it mean when they say…

Scenario #1- Person 1 can sense that something is bothering their mate so they ask them what’s wrong. The mate responds with, “Nothing.

Translation- On most cases, something is bothering them and they either want you to be more compassionate in your asking to really have a conversation about it OR they want you to sit and think about what you might’ve done (or not done) in the last 24 hours that has them feeling in a way. If you figure out what it is, address it with an apology EVEN if you feel it’s a small thing in your mind. It may be huge to them so don’t minimize it if you find out what it is.

Scenario #2- Person 1 can sense that something is bothering their mate so they ask them what’s wrong. The mate responds with, “Nothing… Why? What makes you ask?

Translation- In most cases, nothing is really bothering them OR it may be something that isn’t related to the relationship. In that case, just back off because it might be your own guilty conscience OR if it’s something unrelated to the relationship, they’ll probably come around and talk about it later.

Scenario #3- A Female, outta the blue starts a sentence with the words, “Don’t you wanna…” OR “Don’t you feel like…

Translation- This is what I feel like doing and I’d suggest that you feel like doing it too. Fellas, if it’s within reason, DO IT! A- You’ll probably end up somewhat enjoying it anyway. B- She’ll hold it against you if you don’t. C- It comes with being in a relationship. You have to do certain things that you don’t want to, so you might as well just do it.

Scenario #4- A male and female get into a dispute about… I don’t know… let’s say… Where to have dinner. And in that dispute, she randomly says something like, “I bet you if I was that little skinny girl from your job, you wouldn’t be arguing me down about where to have dinner.

Translation- I don’t like her presence as it pertains to our relationship. A- I am very insecure and I would like for you to do something about making me feel secure with my space in your life as it compares to women like her OR B- I am a very secure woman but I just don’t like the way that you 2 interact and it needs to stop and it’s been bothering me for a while so I’m using a silly debate over which restaurant as a means to bring it up. Nevermind, where this came from or what this has to do with dinner, or the fact that you don’t even know which skinny girl I’m talking about… JUST FIX IT!

Scenario #5- The person you are with, either locks their phone or keeps it face down when you’re around.

Translation- I have some stuff going on in or through my phone that I don’t want you to know about. At that time, it’s on you to decide if you’re willing to put up with that or not. Technically (Unless you’re married) it’s THEIR PHONE and they don’t have to share anything with you. And if that’s the attitude that they have then you have to decide whether or not you want to deal with that. They may change… They may not change… That’s on you!

Scenario #6- A person says to the other, with a slight attitude, You always do such and such OR You never do such and such…

Translation- Whatever follows that “Always” or that “Never” needs to be paid attention to. Whether the person is accurate or not with what their saying is one thing. But the other thing is that, whatever they’re saying you always or never do, is starting to get on their nerves. You might’ve only done it 2 times but it’s obvious that a past relationship or maybe even they way they were brought up, has made them annoyed when it comes to this issues, whatever this issue may be. At the point in time, whatever is being said that’s always or never done. needs to be addressed in truth and at the root.

Scenario #7- The female wants the male to meet her father or uncle or brothers or some type of “Male Guardian” figure in her life.

Translation- She wants you, Bro! At least in most cases. With that being said, it’s up to you to either go forth since it’s obvious that she wants to walk in the direction of getting more serious OR It’s on you to find a way to distance yourself from that situation or at least slow things down a bit. And here’s a hint… It’s hard to slow things down a bit, if you want to keep exchanging bodily fluids with her.

Scenario #8- I’m just waiting on my soulmate…

Now, only the mature and truthful people will agree with this one…

Translation- I’ve arrived… Often times, people who say the above, feel like they have MOST of their stuff together and now it’s just a matter of time or spiritual intervention until their match comes along. I’m not saying that they think they’re perfect. But they have subscribed to the miraculous notion that God has chosen someone for them and that they are the person chosen in return and by some supernatural alignment, they will meet up with this person. You were blessed with a mind, common sense, experiences, intuition, wisdom, gut feelings, council, and a whole bunch of other stuff that can be used when making choices and decisions. For God to Bless you with all of these things AND THEN come and make a decision for you is a bit much don’t you think? In no way, do I want to push my spiritual beliefs on you but… Men and women have sex and release biological particles that join each other as a means to conceive a child. God interrupted that regular cycle for the sake of birthing Christ in what we call a miracle. The sea is a strong force of water that has waves and currents and all that jazz. God interrupted that regular flow for the sake of Moses parting the sea in what we call a miracle. I do believe that God can do all things. I also believe that some relationships may have an anointing while others may just be a wreck from the beginning. But to say that God has a person chosen for you is a but much… In the book that I read, Adam was the only person that God had someone chosen for and it never happened again. So if you are sitting around waiting for a miracle as it pertains to your relationship, I wish you well with that. I might be a bit presumptuous in saying this but… Don’t expect a person waiting on their soulmate to be the most proactive and rational person in a relationship.

Scenario #9- Person A has a habit of meeting Person B at the hang out spot rather than picking them up.

Translation- I enjoy your company for what it is but I’m not really that into you beyond that. It might get there later on but I see a reason to keep us from getting to a certain level of intimacy but I still enjoy doing whatever we do when we get together in person.

Scenario #10- Person A looks Person B in the eye and says, “I don’t want to be hurt.

Translation- Be concerned. Why? Because most “normal” people don’t want to be hurt. People don’t walk around making it known that they don’t want to be shot. Nor do they walk around making it know that they don’t want to have a bird doo doo on their head. Why? Because it’s a given! So if a person has to go as far as actually saying it to you then A- They already see something in you that might hurt them OR B- They are that needy and frail that you will spend a more than normal amount of time and energy tending to their security. And that may not be a bad thing depending on what you’re into but just know that more times than not, that will be a part of your bond.

Well, since we’re talking about all this male/female interaction, check out my latest Single “Aspirations.” Some of you have probably already seen on a blog or two but this is the first installment of my next project called The Appetizer. Just look to your left and listen there.. And of course I’m always down for feedback…

Anyway,

I still need that feedback on what you just read, people!!! C’mon, you know how we do!! LoL

This… I repeat… THIS Will be the post that will make most of you mad at me. And guess what… I don’t care!!! Wanna know why? Because it is my job to tell you the truth. This will make the ladies angry for obvious reasons, and this will make some of the fellas angry because I’ll kinda sorta be giving a piece of “the game” away. But Oh Well! I’m tired of the foolery that I see going on around me. Most of it is childish and (with no disrespect to my non black supporters) this is the kind of stuff that is woven into the fabric of the Black Community and it’s not helping our declining family structure. If you don’t like the truth then this DEFINITELY is not the post you should read.  Ready? Let’s go…

#Scenario #1- If you had the opportunity to get a job… with a regular pay check… and a benefits package… and a company car… and a vacation every 6 months and you did NOT have to report to work everyday, or go to the meetings, would you take the job?!? Most of you would look at the opportunity a little funny at first because it would appear to good to be true but we’d all probably end up taking it or at least trying it out for a little while.

#Scenario #2- If you had the chance to have the perfect body for the rest of your life, with no work… no exercise… no dieting… no tanning… no grooming… Would you take it? OF COURSE YOU WOULD!

With that being said, If there is little to no requirement for us to commit to the work load, or commit to the time & energy part of it, BUT we still get to reap the benefits of a situation and take part in the Benefits Package, we’re going to do it!!! Let’s take it a step further… If I am a human being who enjoys company… good times… good food… sex… laughs… having things bought for me… etc… And I can get those things from a person without having to commit to them in a relationship, Most Human Beings are going to do it. Not all… But Most! SO! When you call my phone or send your e-mails to #KelzKitchen and ask things like, “Why won’t He/She commit?” or “I don’t know where it’s going, I mean they act like they’re my mate but they still want their freedom,” please don’t expect the angels to fall from the sky, and for Questlove and the Roots to start playing a Heavenly anthem, and for Bells & Whistles to sound off in the background of some miraculous answer. Your answer is VERY SIMPLE. When are they going to commit? Either A- When they feel like it or B- NEVER. You gave them the Benefits Package without requiring that they commit to the company. We’re supposed to be dating each other like -> THIS <- anyway! LoL! I think I’mma stop here for today. Y’all be good…

Pardon me for going on a “relationship rant” lately but for some reason, Relationship topics have been weighing heavy on me lately. Maybe my biological man-clock is ticking or something, I don’t know… Anyway, I want to address you with a topic that is always both simple and complex at the same time. I know people who believe that a man and a woman can be friends and only friends and I also know people who believe that it is 100% Impossible for a man and woman to be platonic friends. I want to discuss this…

I recently posted the following question, “Ladies, if your man’s female friend needed him to help her move or move some furniture or put up a shelf in her home, etc… How would you feel about that?” (April 7th, 7:35pm Fam Page / Regular Page) There were mixed responses but a nice amount of the answers lent themselves to women not trusting the friendship between their man and his female friend. Now, that trust could stem from the fact that he’d have to be alone with her at her home, or it might stem from feeling like his female friend crossed the line by even asking when she could’ve simply asked another single man in her life, or it might even stem from the fact that the girlfriend is insecure, I don’t know!

The following example might make your stomach turn but I have actually been to weddings where I’m in the audience, sitting next to an ex-girlfriend of the groom who is up at the altar getting married. The groom and this ex-girlfriend are such good friends and have been only friends for so long (10+ years) that the groom never even bothered to tell his fiance about their sexual past. I’m not saying whether I agree with that or not, I’m just sharing what I’ve seen. And making it known that he probably didn’t tell his fiance for fear of having to let loose a friendship that is valuable to him. Again, I’m not saying whether or not that’s right or wrong… AGAIN, I’M NOT SAYING WHETHER OR NOT THAT’S RIGHT OR WRONG.

I’ve also seen situations where a girl has a “brother” or a very close male friend, and most people wouldn’t know that at one point in time, they did the “Happy Horizontal” or shared an intimate kiss. I even know a few women who (after many years) call the guy who de-virginized them their “brother,” because now they are friends and friends only, and have no urge at all to be anything more than just friends. I’ve even seen situations where a man and woman have children, and one of the Godparents is an ex of one of the parents, without the other parent even knowing about their sexual past, Why? Because all they see is the current friendship and it appears to be a happy, non-intrusive relationship. AGAIN, I’M NOT SAYING WHETHER OR NOT THAT’S RIGHT OR WRONG.

Now, I have also seen situations where a man and woman may have had a sexual encounter or a sexual relationship in the distant past, and now they are just friends. And they actually choose to share that with whomever they’re currently in a relationship with just so that no secrets are kept. I have seen that as well. AGAIN, I’M NOT SAYING WHETHER OR NOT THAT’S RIGHT OR WRONG.. In your opinion, do men & women have the ability to be friends and friends only, or is it a guaranteed, automatic that something sexual will happen in time, if given the right space and opportunity?

Your thoughts?

What exactly is a lie?

A guy is on the phone with his girlfriend. While they’re on the phone his doorbell rings and it’s his pissed off Ex-girlfriend dropping off some his things that she found in storage. His now girlfriend naturally asks, “Who is that at your door, babe?” He replies with “Oh, it’s just one of my old friends.” Did he lie?

A female is sexually involved with a man. This man just happens to have a rather large ego. As a way to feed his ego and “please her man” she tells him that she his almost always sexually gratified when in actuality, she is hardly ever sexually satisfied but she loves him dearly and doesn’t really need to be pleased sexually as a means to be happy in a relationship. Yes she lied but was that wrong?

Some people say that a lie is whenever you’re being dishonest. Webster’s says that a lie is to make an untrue statement with intent to deceive or to create a false or misleading impression. Some people say “it depends.” What I want to know is, what exactly is a lie and is it ever ok to lie?

There are millions of children who believe in Santa Claus and a Tooth Fairy. Are we lying to them? And if so, are we wrong? So I ask you, have you ever been in any of these situations? And what would you say a lie is? And is it ever ok to lie or is it always wrong?

Talk to me, family…
