Today I want to touch on a topic that might just piss some of y’all off, but oh well, that’s what I’m here for. What is up with women using men? Now, I’m not saying all or even most, I’m just asking about the percentage that does it and the shit makes them think that it’s cool. Let me tell you what happened that brought this around…

Now for those that don’t know, I’m aspiring to play professional football in the very near future. Actually, I aspire to do a few things in the very near future, but we won’t get into all of that right now. We’ll just save it until next time (sorry once again poetry fans!). But back to the story…

Some days I get up at 6:30 am and I go work out. Some days I push that back to about 8 or 9, but that’s not the point. Today just happened to be one of those days that I was extra committed to obtaining my dream, so I got up and called my trainer so we could go work out (yes, the man answers my calls at just about any hour. He’s billing me at $100 an hour, so he better answer the damn phone!). I keep my workouts short and simple because of the strain that it puts on my diminishing savings account. So by 9:30, I was back in the house and headed for my bed and a shower (if any of y’all have done sport-specific training early on a rainy December morning, you understand why the bed came before the shower.) I laid down for a while, and then I had to get up and relieve myself. While I was using the facilities, my phone rang. Obviously, I didn’t answer it. When I came back downstairs to lie down and watch the good ol’ boob tube, my phone rang again. A female friend of mine was in need of some help. She had a flat tire and needed someone to change it for her. I have no problem playing the part of the knight in shining armor, so I got dressed and went to her aid. When I arrived at her house, she was busy calling guys she knows, trying to get them to come help her. When they refused for various reasons, she got pissed off. She even told one guy to never call her again. So here’s the question to you ladies who are reading this (and the fellas too, if you got an opinion), what did she have to get mad about? If someone can’t be somewhere for you when you want them there, is that really their fault? And how can you be mad at somebody for thinking that you’re using him or her when the only reason you call is because you need something? How does any of that make sense?

I’ll being waiting in burning anticipation for your responses to this one…
