I am not with this whole notion of rationing love. If I want to talk to you, I am calling. If I am thinking of you I am texting. If I want to send you a sexy note, I am doing that. The rules are for less confident Sisters who walk in fear. Now I am not suggesting casting my pearls before swine. But there is something to be said for discriminating taste and once you jump that hurdle can you move at your own pace? YES! Truth be told, I am not interested in playing at Love. I am however interested in authenticity and honesty and the rules for that are universal: come as you are, act with integrity, have a generous spirit and speak truth to power. Those are the rules...the only rules. All that other stuff is manipulation and dishonesty. And quite frankly exhausting.
So if I am crushing on you...you'll know it, because I will be stepping to you with my boldness and sexual energy. There are no rules...except the ones that I make or better still the ones WE make.
The Love List 88-89
- 88. Checks on me throughout the day to say hello and that I am thinking of you.
- 89. picks up my favorite soy ice cream without me asking.

Yes! A woman who knows who she is can show show it with tenderness, passion and vitality. I'm so with you on this.
Bill Withers said it best, "Sweet and tender things are so much nicer than silly games..."
Hey Jennifer!
Girl, you and Bill Withers are righ on! I am not playing at anything especially not Love. I am however coming boldly and tenderly. And I like it better!
I really really like your love lists...
Hey Miss Smack,
I love it too, it has been a true excercise in discerning what I want and need in the next lover/partner/husband.
I'm with you on this too.
I'm currently crushing on a guy that I think is a little socially inept. I feel like if I don't make a move, nothing is going to happen.
Love this post. And I agree, there are no rules when it comes to love. So it's in everyone's best interest to love/live as if this is your last day.
Anyone who thinks different, I tell them to prove it.
Hi Love:
I have always been bad at determining whether those actions are appropriate or not. In the end, I think I end up doing what I want to do, whether it is playing by someone elses rules or not.
Be blessed!
yep
dont see the use in playing games
nice post per usual
Hello Monique--yes go for it! Nothing ventured nothing gained!
Don, I think you are right and I am going use that--ask anybody...prove it! Prove me wrong!
Hell Sister-Artist in Me,
doing what you want to do is the best road to take. Sitting and waiting is not always best...you know your own mind and heart!
Dejanae,
Playing games is exhausting and a pure waste of time. And thanks for the compliment!
Ya know, you really touched me today. Thanks God the ropes that bound us have been cut. In it's place, and invisible thread ties us to each other and all those like us. Strength in numbers right?
Peace and LOVE,

Xavier, we must sit and talk and share a drink or two. I think we have stories to share. I do so appreciate your sensitve spirit and commitment to love without boundaries!
Absolutely strength in numbers!
Fail 88. I'm the worst about phone calls.
Clear 89. I'd find out pretty quickly what your favorite treats are and would generally keep the larder stocked with them.
