Like, I’m Thinking

"Way to chill. I think like you thinking like me... in regard to how to meet somebody, or why it ain't just happening in normal, go to go, just happening life.

"When is it appropriate to walk up to a beautiful lady and say something like "I like your dress," or "you got an interesting look, charming," and have that thing just be a thing that caught your intrigue, and wait for reciprocation and if none comes, carry on...

"Saying like, hitting on someone with a witty comment, something that stresses me and puts me out there on an “I'm feeling you and it's obvious why," stresses that obviousness and leads to thoughts that deem the inclination that the guy is digging for booty instead of gold... just a saying...

"At Night Clubs the music is too loud to have a conversation, getting attention is a lot easier than claiming attention, and a girl will grind up on you and then another guy a minute later... and don't even hope that a girl got either the class or the guts to clasp one set of hands and formal the other... like they don't know that the ballroom posture will only draw positive attention if the girl is fine and the guy got a swagger in his step... even if you propose that this new step can be so simple that she don't even got to know how...

"And I still don't understand the air of appropriateness at where I'd like to meet somebody, a ballroom dance... I got to the point where, I think, and the word is think, that if a guy asks the same girl for a second dance, she assumes that he knows that she is pretty fly. But if she is too good a dancer, by her follow of the leads of other leads, I assume that she has either got a man or would prefer a man way more prestigious than me.

"And if she can't dance, humph… I assume, well, just know that I feel that the girls that be vibing on the dance floor judge me by my same set of opinions on my dancing (I'm a little pretentious.)

"I don't want to step out of line because I know that I would press on myself, thinking she will think that I'm putting myself out there for the wrong reason, to play it slick like an Ace rather than dance, play and sing like a King. "
