onyinye2:That's overdoing it. I'll rather he grabs my wrist in anger rather than slapping me. I might grab hiswrist in anger too, but will I want him to leave me just for that reason alone? no |

Ruby_Pearl: both are done in anger so what's the difference? |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by Nobody: 3:16am On Aug 25, 2008 |
KarmaMod:The difference is that, it's too much of a stupid reason to leave your relationship or marriage. Imagine going to dinner wiv him, you said you want to leave, he says no. In anger, you stood up to leave, he grabs you wrist to pull you towards him. . . . . then you open your falala mouth and says "It's over". he asks you "what? why?". You say "for grabbing my wrist like that". I won't blame the dude for thinking you're a lunatic. "Ewo lo nse were yi?" |

Depends on why the wrist is grabbed |

Quote from: Queenisha on Yesterday at 01:37:42 AM SeanT, naaahhhhh. Dont do that, please, dont start second guessing and monitoring your man based on these generalizations you hear here. There are positive emotions and there are negative emotions. Both of them are reflected in love, whether it is parental love or spousal love. What you heard are the negative emotions and what it can produce. Rejoice in the positive emotions of the man you love. Im like your man, very passionate with a cool and calm exterior, very loving and caring but I am hot tempered when it comes to another man parambulating around my woman, my patience is short. As her body guard, my job is to keep her safe and happy, but my 6'4' frame is directed for intimidation against others, not for hurting my woman. If I was sitting with a date and mr admirer send food or drinks over, I will ask my date if this was someone she knew. If not, the tray will be returned to sender. I hope he gets the message! If he gets smart and push the wrong button there will be plenty misunderstanding. |

Yea keep her safe from food. Men and their excuses to show muscles. Plenty of those like Sean T's guy and worse whose gfs are getting killed left and right in Queens nowadays. |

Karma, It goes beyond the food. From a man's perspective its symbolic. A woman might miss the cue and think, "oh he is such a kind gentleman". But he is not! If he really wants to display kindness let him feed a hungry beggar, my babe is sitting there with me and we are getting ready to get fed, we are not seeking handout. He is a hunter and the woman is just another prey and the only reason he did not walk over to her is because she is sitting with another man. Everything in our world is ego and pride, a man does not make advances to your woman in your face and you don't respond. Its a test and you are a weak man if you fail that test. The mere move to send my girl a token of his admiration is enough to set me off. When you see Negro with his girl you back the hell off, I dont play like that around my woman and thats the lesson he will be learning that night. No, this is not about food, this is about poussy, he wants her; I do too and Im keeping her. So let him dispossess me of her if he believes he can. Its true there are men that have emotions directed wrongfully at the woman, instead of on competitors and the outside. Its not only the woman that feel their anger and bitterness, their children do too. How do you explain a man that picks up his little baby took him outside holding him by his feet and then raised him high above shoulder level and brought him down with force smashing his skull on the concrete sidewalk, brain and blood splattered all over? His reason? She was seeing another dude. He need to go and face the dude and teach him a lesson. Not kill an innocent little baby and throw his mother into grief. There are men that have anger and emotions and direct it rightfully at the outside. So don't get the two mixed up under the umbrella of jealousy and anger and emotions. Jealousy is a good emotion to have if used properly. |

The irony of osisi's/oyinye's stories is that despite the man sending food OBVIOUSLY to gain their attention, they enjoyed the food WITH their dates and went home If that's not enough to show the "Mr Man" that his plan didnt work, I don't know what is. If anything I found it funny. The woman is only a "prey" if she falls for the trick and tries to get with the man after the meal by seeming "impressed" by the gesture. I still stand by the fact that osisi's dude is cool for letting it roll off his back and joining her in enjoying this amusing gesture. Still ened up showing that man that despite all that she's still with me anyway. "Ha Ha" Blowing up and turning into a wannabe kingkong causing some public fight over something like that might be a turn on for teenagers but not me or any sane woman for that matter. 1 Like |

The irony of osisi's/oyinye's stories is that despite the man sending food OBVIOUSLY to gain their attention, they enjoyed the food WITH their dates and went home Is it really THEIR attention or HER attention? You see this is what Im saying, a woman does not see it as anything extra-ordinary. There are men that will agree with you and see it the way you see it. Majority of men will see it the way I see it. Again, just as a man cannot understand the emotions that women go through and why they respond in certain ways to certain stimuli but different to others, a woman cannot understand this phenomenon of ego and pride in a man. Much as you may want to, its not a easy thing for you to understand unless you are a man, and when I say man, I am not talking about weak willed men. Men have gone to war for nothing else other than on woman's issue. The only other reason a man will go to war is for territorial control. You can call it teenage truancy if you want or give it any other label to belittle that emotion, it is there and men have always clashed over it and we will continue to clash over it. That's our ego and our pride at play. If you don't like it step aside from the crosshairs. |

No ma'am, not at all. I am not inferring that not fighting is weakness. It has to be acknowledged that the other man had encroached. Sense of decency should have told him not to send anything over or show interest in a woman thats in the company of another man. If he does not have that sense, somebody need to knock it into him and I happen to have the kind of temperament thats designed for that. Some other men may not but still aknowledge the insult in their own way that they see fit. If I challenge a man's ego and he acts timid, trust me Im running over him, no questions asked! Fighting in that manner is not necessarily "niggardly". If you could listen to UN diplomats take anger out on each other verbally you will understand that emotions have nothing to do with academic achievements or background. From time to time we hear soundbites from US congress of senators cursing each other out. You don't think Bill Clinton will punch someone in their nose if they mess with his ego? Cheney double barrelled someone for crossing him, Bush was overheard calling someone a motherfakker. Jesse Jackson, Bill Cosby, all these men have been overheard to curse at another man for insultive misstep towards them. I don't think you will ever hear Obama curse but MLK cursed. Malcom X not only cursed, he was temperamental and combative. So we are different and our emotions come out in different ways. The issue we should be focusing on is WHO the emotion is directed at. I have a question for you. I have heard you say he shouldn't beat his wife, he shouldnt fight another man. Well, how do you want him to let out steam when he is upset and bitter over another man trying to get his woman? Tell me. |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by KarmaMod(f): 2:29pm On Aug 27, 2008 |
Nothing special about Malcolm, not sure why he's mentioned. That world famous temper killed him in the end as for letting out steam. steam over what? Dude tried to make a pass by trying to impress the girl, at the end of it who enjoys the gesture? the girl and the man SHE"S ON THE DATE WITH. If anything I see that as the "best revenge" for the gesture as the date is still the one taking her home. In the end of it, Mr do-gooder gains nothing from what he did. Try to show muscle over something like this is infantile, if he came over trying to act up then fine. other than that, pointless and stupid. |

If a woman I take out on a date takes a meal off another man, it immediately tells me that the woman is never going to be mine. The man who does such a thing is also an irresponsible man. How can you be trying to capture a girl's heart when she is obviously with another guy? |

This is a strange way of the man telling you that you are with the wrong dude and that he can take better care of you. A nigerian man thinks "every amount of money he spend on you is the amount of puccy, you owe him" I have heard about, never talk to a stranger, but not, never eat a food bought by a stranger. |
