I'd just posted on Facebook the other day that there are two little words that will shut a brother down QUICK in this dating game -- I'M CELIBATE.
For MOST men, those two words will initiate a defense mechanism that will cause them to eliminate themselves from any further dating pursuits. A small number of men will see it as a green-light challenge to be the first man to make you break that vow.
I have so many stories of both instances ... the flight from and the fight to break my chastity. Each and every time it renews my vow to lock it up until someone decides I'm worth locking down.
The latest came via text message.
A homeboy tells his homeboy was checking me out on a social network and asked for my number. I approve the exchange and the guy texts me ...
Him: So what's up can we chill tonight?
Me: I don't even know you ...
Him: Well that's how we get to know each other.
Me: Ok, but just a word of caution, I'm abstinent
Him: Oh. Ok ...
(pause)
Him: So wait, you don't do ANY kind of sexual activities?
Me: Nope, unless you count kissing ...
*texts cease and desist*
LOL ... and another one bites the dust :)
