Attraction VS. Turn-Offs

By Isley Nicole

Isn't it funny how the things that attract you to a person, sometime is the same thing that turns you off from that person? I was having a conversation with my girlfriend last night and we were cracking up laughing about past relationships. Here's some instances:

1. You meet a guy and you say, "damn he is such a bad boy!" a year later he is still a bad boy but he is beating your ass and bitch is your new name. OR

2. He is so sensitive, but now he cries all the time and has no spine.

3. He is so creative, but now he is broke because he don't have a business side.

4. He is such a hustler, but now you never see him because he's all about the paper chase.

5. His style is so metro-sexual, but now all your beauty products are being used up by him and he could be gay.

6. He is so funny, but now you can't get him to be serious, EVER.

7. He don't go out to the clubs, but now you are bored out your mind because he doesn't have a fun bone in his body.

8. He's such a man's man, but now he is a chauvinistic pig who secretly hates women and could be gay.

9. He loves his momma to death, but now he involves his momma in any disagreement y'all have. Or he can't make a move without calling momma first.

10. He wants me all too himself, now he is super possessive and accuses you of cheating when you walk out the door.

Same for the fellas! He meets a woman and he says...

1. She's a freak and slept with me right away, but now you are hearing she smashed a few of your homies and gave you the clap.

2. She has huge double F titties, but now they are down to her knees and she ain't even had kids yet.

3. She's super thick, but now she looks like Star Jones pre gastric bypass surgery.

4. She's fine as hell, but now her looks have faded and that's all she had to offer.

5. She's a lot of fun, but now she's still all about who's at the latest hot party and leaves you at home with the kids to be there.

6. She's so smart, but now she corrects everything you say and makes you feel dumb all the time.

7. She makes more money than me, but now she is constantly putting you down and making you feel like a little bitch.

8. She's like one of the home boys, but now she never wears stilettos or is always in sweats.

9. She's such a sweetie, but now you are missing that bitch because you miss the challenge and you can tell the sweetie anything and she'll believe you.

10. She's so gangsta, but now she shot at you 5 times when you tried to leave her. (applies to men too) Or she thinks she can beat you up in a fist fight causing you to go to jail for domestic violence.

These are funny extremes lol but it's really good to look far past your initial attraction. Get to know people before you give your heart. Stop judging a book by it's cover and go deeper. See if there's something else in that person valuable enough to be your significant other. I definitely have learned, most of the time the things you want are not the things you need. Feel free to add more to the list.
