Mr. X im still looking for a Valentine...


For the purpose of this Blog, the person that is discussed will be given the appellation Mr. X.


Men, you can't live with them but you can't live without them.


So, I know I shouldn't wait, anticipating Mr. X's pronouncement to be with me or not but I can't seem to let him go. I can't figure out why though, is it because I love him? or is it that I love the idea of him? In actuality, it's not that he isn't irreplaceable, so why is it that I just can't say "to the left, to the left" and walk away with my pride and dignity? This is a peculiarity that I have yet to grasp. I've read the books, watched the movies, and heard the stories. I know exactly what it is that I should do, but I remain awaiting for him to decide what he wants to do with me, as if I'm some substandard, disposable item. It's confounding to say the least. Deep down inside, I have a strong sentiment that it isn't love because love wouldn't treat me this way. It is said that,


"Love is patient, Love is kind, It does not envy, it does not boast, It is not proud, It is not rude, It is not self-seeking, It is noteasily angered, It keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight inevil, but rejoices with the truth. Love always protects, alwaystrusts, always hopes, and always perseveres. Love bears all things,believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things"


So, I put things in perspective and presume that it indeed is not love. However, I still linger around hoping that I am the women he chooses….


I know that I, as women, am stronger than a man. We are the bearers of life, we have the power to conceive, and intellectual potency that men only dream of having. So why do I succumb to Mr. X, knowing that he isn't dealing with me as gently and kindly as he should be? I don't know what it is that keeps me coming back for more, but I sure do hope it's not love.


Until next time,


Love Talk

Top 10: Effective Pickup Lines




Top 10: Effective Pickup Lines
from AskMen.Com


Number 10

"Excuse me, is this seat taken?"

Innocent, charming and polite. It is not always safe to assume that a woman sitting next to an empty chair is alone. Your consideration of the fact that she may be saving a seat for someone shows that you have class. What makes this an effective pickup line is the fact that its unobtrusive and gives her the opportunity to invite you to join her if she is alone.

Number 9

"Would you like to dance?"

Hopefully you have enough rhythm in your pants to actually dance. If you impress her with your skills, you might just find yourself at the bar talking about music, the DJ or even the venue. This is among the most effective pickup lines because women like to dance, and if you shuffle your feet right, you might end up doing a tongue tango or the horizontal shuffle.

Number 8

"Can I interest you in a glass of…?"

Insert the type of beverage for which the occasion calls. In most cases, we are speaking of an event or gathering that calls for a glass of wine or a pina colada, and if you're in college, a beer. If it's a toned-down occasion, you might offer a soda or lemonade. No matter where you are, this is one of our favorite pickup lines because it affords us the opportunity to display our skills as a connoisseur without being overt about it.

Number 7

"Do you come here often? I could use your opinion about something…"
Before that gulp of beer comes out your nose, hold on. We know that this one sounds like a cheesy pickup line, but you can make it work for you. If you are having a hard time choosing a dish, a beverage or even an article of clothing that best suits you, this is the time to solicit the help of a woman who may happen to frequent the place in question. If you utilize her choice and opinion as a topic of conversation, you'll see that this is among the most effective pickup lines on the planet.


Number 6

"Excuse me; can you help me with…?"

Here's where you can come up with a light task for her to help you with, such as winning a bet among friends, naming a song that is playing or even ordering a drink. This will make her feel as though you are interested in her and appreciative of her feedback, opinion or selection. Requesting her assistance gives her a non-verbal indication that you're impressed with her appearance and ultimately states that her answer is valued.

Number 5

"Don't you find this place…?"

Insert a word that best describes how you feel about the venue, such as classy, cool, chic, or off the hook. Hopefully, she will share the same opinion, which will ultimately lead to further conversation about the ambiance, the decor and places you have encountered that have similar attributes. Don't, however, complain; doing so will dampen her mood and turn her off faster than an Eddie Murphy movie.

Number 4

"You look like you might be interested in some great conversation."

If you say this with the right tone and with enough attitude, it'll put a smile on her face. While this effective pickup line helps you break the ice, it also spontaneously creates a topic to discuss. This could be anything from food to wine or from a current event to the venue. Be sure that you're as willing to listen as you are to talk, and remember to keep it light and great, which is exactly what you offered.

Number 3

"Would you like an escort to your…"

When you notice a woman walking alone -- perhaps to her table, an elevator or even the bar -- it is always a nice gesture to politely offer her a sense of security. At the same time, it is highly likely that she won't be walking very far, so exhibiting your charm will be essential to your attempt to break the ice once you've delivered your effective pickup line.

Number 2

"Wow! I really like that (insert item of clothing or fragrance) you're wearing."

Women put great effort into preparing an ensemble that best reflects how they feel and how they want to be perceived by admirers. As such, your compliment tells her that her efforts did not go unnoticed. This small gesture will boost her confidence and earn you all access to front-row conversation. We suggest that you do a little research and arm yourself with tidbits of info relating to women's fashion so that you will appear sincere while you exercise this highly effective pickup line.

Number 1

"I just thought you should know that you have a really nice…"

Sure, you could say something derogatory, but that would likely get you a slap across the face. But, complimenting features such as her smile, eyes or nose can go a long way in making a woman open up enough to converse with you. Who says flattery gets you nowhere? The key is to make sure that you are genuine about your observation -- women can tell when a guy is trying to lay it on thick just to get close.

the pickup artist

Just remember:

Being cheesy isn't cute and will get you dismissed faster than she can bat an eyelash. On the other hand, being clever and confident with your delivery can get you to the next level. If flattery remains your point of action, make sure not to lay it on too thick. Compliments should be delicate and poured on lightly to ensure their staying power. The objective is to create a conversation starter that best reveals your interest and your intent.

G-Unit is back with a new mixtape. And it's actually Good!!


So the word on the street is that they kicked Young Buck out of G-Unit and that 50 is doing any and everything he can to keep his deal. After 7 videos and lackluster sales, it seems the machine that is Curtis "Interscope" Jackson is losing steam. Anyhow, the Unit is back with a mixtape that, although has a bit too much singing, and not enough of a lyrical punch as expected from Banks and Fif, it does remind you a bit of the old G-Unit mixtape days..
