THOU SHALL NOT HATE

Let me first start by saying I hate the term 'hate' because it's used more often than not incorrectly...but in this case it was warranted, allow me to set the scene for yall...

This past Monday I'm riding the elevator down at school, it stops on the 2nd floor...I hate this because that shows complete and utter laziness...it's one flight *rolls eyes* I'm off topic, anywho a black lady walks on the elevator, kinda older, not old but older than me. I smile in her direction, she doesn't smile back. Okay, that's fine. Smiles can catch people off guard, they don't know how to respond to them. So we are on an elevator, just she and I...she decides to stand directly in front of me and flip her hair...oh I'm sorry...her ratty lacefront over her shoulder...I chuckle a bit to myself and shake my head. I'm catching vibes off of her, vibes I've felt before, if you're a black woman I know you're familiar with it...you ever entered a room with black women you may or may not know and the hair on your arms stand up slightly and you know that said black women are side eyeing you; could be internally, could be externally, either way they're doing it and you are the target.


That's what I felt. This intensified as we walked outside...she was in front of me, about a foot or two, she walks through the double doors and doesn't hold it open...I chuckle and walk out the building. I get to my car, Ms. Dash is parked right behind me, well right behind me two spots over. She gets in her car (which is an older version of the same car I have) and sits, I get in my car and immediately back out...as soon as I do this she damn near burns the rubber off all her tires backing out and blocking me in as we are going the same way. She stops, looks through her car, gets on her cell phone and after a minute or so drives forward so I can finally drive off campus.

Now...I wasn't mad at her, quite the contrary...I felt sad for this miserable bitch because obviously she has issues within herself that she was transferring onto me for whatever reason. Women who act like this do it because they feel inferior to another woman in their presence, it's really that simple. She has something that you want, hence the hostility...be it a purse, a car, a hairstyle, hell, even a man. So instead of saying 'hey, let me try to find out how I can be on her level' you say 'I don't like that bitch'...does that make sense to you? If it does please explain to me how that works because I live in the land of common sense and here that shit does not compute.

 

Every woman you meet is not your fucking competition! Stop worrying about the moves the next chick is making and concentrate on making your own, how much of your life do you waste talking about how the next person has all these gots and all you got is ain'ts? Start seeing these women you secretly envy not as an opponent but as motivation, if she can do it...why can't you? Realize that criticizing a woman (without merit) is nothing but internally admitting that she is better than you, and I don't know if you're aware but in your own eyes, NO ONE is better than you...at least you shouldn't feel they are

Women...black women in particular...y'all have GOT to stop with this 'she think she cute' mentality...please tell me what a woman should think of herself? Should she think she's ugly? Would that make you feel better about yourself? If you answered yes to any of these questions I just asked kindly set the reset button on your life, it's obvious you need to take a mulligan and just start the fuck over.
