Girl, You KNOW Yo Mama Taught You Betta!

I am stealing this from a friend of mine's facebook note ... so simple, but so true, and so hard to "get" when you're in the middle of it all ...

IF A MAN WANTS YOU ...

By: Salma Rumman

If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away.

If he doesn’t want you, nothing can make him stay.

Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.

Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.

Stop trying to change yourselves for a relationship that’s not meant to be.

Slower is better.

Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.

If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve
then heck no, you can’t "be friends." A friend wouldn’t mistreat a friend.

Don’t settle. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.

Don’t stay because you think "it will get better." You’ll be mad at yourself
a year later for staying when things are not better.

The only person you can control in a relationship is you.

Avoid men who’ve got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women.
He didn’t marry them when he got them pregnant. Why would he treat you any differently?

Always have your own set of friends separate from his.

Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you.

If something bothers you, speak up.

Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.

You cannot change a man’s behavior. Change comes from within.

Don’t EVER make him feel he is more important than you are...even if he has more education or a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more, nothing less.

Never let a man define who you are.

Never borrow someone else’s man.

Oh Lord! If he cheated with you, he’ll cheat on you.

A man will only treat you the way you allow him to treat you.

And hey, some of you dudes should be listenin' to this too - with some chicks treatin' you like YESTERDAY'S TRASH.

And for good measure, Garth here shows how nasty it can get when you act like a dummy and treat  somebody doin SKETCHY stuff like they are your end-all, be-all. SOMEBODY gone get hurt. Never fails!

And another lesson can be learned ... dudes shouldn't wear wigs. ;) You're welcome.

Remember loves, if you gone play your own face, then why shouldn't somebody else?

Fo realz.
