I have a feeling that that's what she's doing to me right now. I'm still as playful, goofy and guarded as day one; still haven't cracked yet and i believe, this 4th month and me still being reserved is why girl still is on full admiration mode for the boy.
What about when i start to get routine? When the thrill and excitement is gone - will she still appreciate me for me and be in love with my true character? As much as i'd like to believe she won't do that - women are susceptible to anything, anywhere and most importantly... any time.
Not saying i'm putting up a front/facade, as it is my true personality, but who's to say that this won't get weary on her end? It just may - and as much as in denial about the inevitabilities and that when she was i was the best thing that happened to her (last night via text)... i know better and to realize that it's just how she feels "at the moment".
It's really gonna suck when reality hits - but that's why i'm still guarded and prepared for any surprises or curveballs this seemingly pristine angel i have in my life.
Hopefully i'm not being too cautious... just a realistic and because of my experiences and also, living vicariously through the stories i hear through friends/family and fellow Coli breaghs... the future seems so bleek and dim. The only thing that is certain from here on out, is not everlasting love/her affection for you, the joys of having a companion that gives you attention... shiit, not even our health and wealth.
All you've got is your mind - and the only way to ensure it will be at peace is to remain/become as resilient as you can and be wise about things you can't control.
Sure, in relationships, women may have the upperhand...
But as the men of the Gems thread, i like to believe we have the upper mind.
Use it to keep you elevated and away from any potential dangers. This comradery between us is why we standing and why we here TODAY!!!
Tomorrow, i take my lady friend of four months to dinner. As she sit across from eachother on the dinner table, and we're sentimentally gazing in eacthothers eyes, she's gonna start thinking about spending the rest of her life with this stud in front of her; the house, white picket fences, poodles, oodles and noodles with 4 chul'ren to parle the social landscape.
Au contraire, the only thing that is crossing my mind is how good this Manhattan is and how this 3 course meal, as good as it gon' be - fixing to cost me damn near a pair of airmaxes. Shiiieeetttt...
The reality of the matter is?
My heart knows better than to ever drop this guard, in fear that if i do, the proverbial blow i'll get to the face may be one that i might never recover from.
And that's the representation of impact so strong, i could literally be walking with damage and scars so profound and prominent - you can see it all over my face, even if the superficial wounds have healed.
And because i have no faith in the contemporary woman, all i can say is...
The only woman that's err gon' love yo ass - is the woman that carried you for nine months and went through hours of labor to ensure you would come into this world safe and sound.
She would do anything for you.
And for that woman, i'd do anything for.
All the other females in your life are just there to supplement your existence.
Tread accordingly fam.
I'm sure there is a woman out there who's as genuine and pure as your own mother - but when it comes to anything beyond my own mind, body and soul - i'm always skeptical about.
Good luck out there guys.
And wish a fella luck.
