"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

can black people grow mullets?

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I think there were a couple hideous rap groups in the early 90s who tried it, their mullets fading into history...

Wow...you guys are young.

Long before the mullet became the haircut of ridicule for the white community, in the early eighties we black people also had our own version of it.

Back then, especially here in the dirty south we used to call it "The Shag".

Check out any early Shalamar (Howard Hewett) video from the early eighties on Youtube, or better yet, check out ANY Lionel Ritchie video ALL THROUGHOUT the eighties.

Ain't nothin' new my friends, it's just variations or innovations on the same old thing---------with a different name that "the kids" might be calling it these days.


RESPECT to you my brothers.


Soldier on.

See, now backbreaker says he's growing a mullet, its alright?

But when I said about the rat tail, I got bashed for it.

The mullet is one of the worst hair fads I've ever seen.


The rat tail (the proper one) reaks havoc and is ftw. Lots of Columbian and Brazilian playboys, pimps and naturals have this. Wouldn't Black people have to straighten the back a bit (perm) or unless you want it like a afro?

I think Jheri Curls are kind of black mullets too. The preferred coiffage of bamas and rednecks respectively.

Cornrows remind me of mullets too. Mullets are only appropriate on old beer-drinking hell-raisin' OLD white men and cornrows are only appropriate on cute as a button pre-teen black girls. Or little white girls who have just returned from a trip to the Jamaica. Otherwise they have a similiar amount of fail attached to them.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.
