ππΌβ¬ οΈπ±β Left β¦ A man with a fish pic is a red flag
An hour or so of thisππΌβ¬ οΈ side to sideππΌβ‘οΈ
ποΈ Bing!
Itβs a like!
Make a move
Send βπππ I see youβ
Time to talk the talk,
Ask for info on his job,
His dog,
His past,
His life,
Him in all,
Talk,
Talk,
Talk,
Then let the idea of him sit with you.
π¬ βWant to chat β¦ not in this app? πβ, hit send.
ποΈπ± βHey sexy lady, alas what do you seek?β
Act coy and say π¬ βIβm cool. I take it a day at a time. I need to feel out the vibe.β
You fail to let him know your true goal,
You donβt want to turn him off and go too slow,
ποΈπ± βSend π· of you nudeβ (π©)
Pay no mind to his text,
Send him semi racy pics in lieu, (π€¦π»ββοΈ)
Keep him on the hook,
(Lol π€£ you just fell for his bait)
From here on out you let him feed you bite size lies,
ποΈπ±βI want you girl, here by my side.β
π¬ βWhen do you want to meet face to face?β is what you text.
ποΈπ±"As soon as you send me a new pic πβ (π©)
π€ What is one more half nude pic π€·π»ββοΈ
π¬ βππβ β¦ hit send (π€¦π»ββοΈ)
Now you just wait,
& wait,
& wait,
ποΈπ± βDamn girl! when are you free?β
π¬ βNow.β
You and him go on a πΆοΈπ₯ date,
You let him rub your leg at the cafΓ©,
You low key hope he will move his hand up a bit π,
You look at his soft red lips,
You wink and blow him a kiss,
You give off the βtake me to bed eyesβ
βLetβs go to your car ππΌππΌβ he says in your ear,
You turn pink but say yes,
The oohs and the ahhs,
The βyeah just like thatβ
The last time you did this was way back when.
But you live for the rush,
You let him call you baby,
You let him call you amor,
You let him call you any name that is not your own,
"Oh. God. I'm. Oh. God. Yes."
Tap out, you are done with your high,
You part ways with a vow to talk and meet real soon.
Fast jump up a week or four,
Itβs all been real easy,
Text.
Meet.
Text.
Meet.
The sex has had your mind in a bend,
You now have got a soft spot for him,
ποΈπ±"Soβ¦I donβt want some new man to have you. I want you for me and no one else.β
You bat your eyes at the text π¬ βWhat does that mean? What are we?β you say back,
ποΈπ±"You are mine to play with. That is for sure.β (π©)
π¬ ββΊοΈπ₯°β (π€¦π»ββοΈ)
But then in time β¦ π»π» a long, long hush
I wait.
& wait.
& wait
& wait.
It had been a few days and not a word back from him π»π»
βDid he play me for a fool?β
βDid I talk too much?β
βDid I go too fast?β
"Did I go too slow?"
βDid I not give him bomb sex?β
βWhat did I do for this to go awry?β
ππππ
But then...
ποΈπ± βHey! You good? When do I see you next?β
π¬ βHey! All is good, hbu? Set the day and the timeβ you say, but you know it was a lie.
You were not okay with his no text back,
It was not okay that he did not even say βhi,β
π¬ βWhat have you been up to? Not a word or a 'hey' in days, nor an 'I miss you, babe' π€ What is up with you?β
ποΈπ±βYeah mami, itβs all good. Iβve been busy. You know how it is. How, βbout we meet at noon? Can you come by with your red lace bra π.β (π©)
π¬ βNope. Iβll pass. You have not sent a word in days and you just want me to say βcome to my bedβ? That is not how this goes. That is not how you act with some one who you say you care for.β (ππ)
ποΈπ± "β¦ but baby girl, who told you that we were a pair? Sure, I care, but tbh sex is sex and βcareβ does not bind us.β
