Even the greatest players in the game can get played.

Is He Playing You Or Are You Playing Yourself?

I know what you’re thinking. Me, getting play? That’s impossible, game recognize game and honey, I’m always two steps ahead. Well, let me take you to school and break it down as to how you let this f**k n***a get one up on you.

As women, we’re professionals when it comes to detecting which men are f**k n****s. We already peep game before their “game” even starts, lurking on twitter to see whose photos they’ve liked and tweet interactions between the “easy” females or even spotting them at the functions trying to holler at every female they see in sight — we see you. However, there’s always that “one” guy that comes into our lives unexpectedly and shows us something different. This guy is smooth and has confidence, he’s able to seduce you with his charm and leave you wanting more and more each time. His actions make you fall for him and lead you to believe that you lucked up on this one so, you give it up to him.

Now you’re hurt, wondering why he hasn't called or been up your ass as he was months before you gave him all of you. Those everyday phone calls turned into short text backs and declined FaceTime calls. You were no longer the chase, you became the prey. This man is eating you alive but, you continue to stay because you're certain you know who he really is. Well, check this out, you don’t. These days, men can pretend to be anyone they want to be just to get in your pants. That smooth and charismatic man you told your homegirls about does not exist.

He knew you were going to be a challenge when he first met you but, he knew if he were able to finesse and be this “ideal” man that some sappy women tweet about then maybe he could get what he wanted. You gave him the runaround and pretended that you didn't have much interest in him although your mind was running wild about that perfect chocolate complexion of his. Lust, admiration, and fantasy is what gets us every time. We dream and we imagine of how we want this man to be but he falls short of our expectations but, we stay and we remain because we see “potential”. There’s never been potential with this man, for he never existed. He played you and you’re playing yourself because you're wasting your time on this “potential” man when your attention should be focused on you. Where’s the respect for yourself?

Don’t allow a f**k n***a to ruin you. Heartbreaks happen but it’s all about how you bounce back. One thing we as women have to keep in mind is that p***y is power and in every situation, we have an advantage. We hold the key to everything therefore, we have control of how matters will turn out but, we must not get distracted and lose sight of our final goal; becoming his one and only.

Put yourself first always in all ways.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
