Have you ever looked a girl straight in the face and just decked her right there in the middle of a house party? Okay. Well, neither have I but there were some very close incidents.

The first time I experienced this emotion was at a party that I had not been personally invited to, but Ejion had been hired to DJ. So naturally, he invited me. And of course, I invited my best friend. Bestie and I get to the party and we quickly realize we know absolutely no one there, except Ejion, of course. And then out of nowhere this girl slightly asked me, very much informed me that we hadn't been invited nor were we welcome.

“I’m with the DJ,” were the only words I had to speak. Oh, the look on her face.

Not everyone will like you. In fact, almost all the girls will glare at you! And where are my fellow girls stuck with the DJ? Like please, be my friend!

I am the girl with the DJ and that doesn’t always mean free drinks. Personally, in my opinion, I believe the bar should give me unlimited drinks because I would be a lot easier to deal with, but I get it. Not everyone takes this role seriously, I’m looking at you promoters. I'm kidding. And speaking of drinks, being the girl with the DJ is not an excuse to get drunk. Let me tell, from personal experience, it’s not easy being vodka-tipsy attempting to go Facebook Live in the middle of a rave in high heels. Just don’t do it.

When you start dating a DJ no one sits you down and says, “here’s how it works.” I wish that was true, but no. And yeah, I’ve Googled this subject countless times. Nothing can prepare you for that moment when you are covered in glitter at 4 a.m. and someone is yelling at you for the XLR cable and you look at them and say, “but I’m with the DJ.” And they do not care.

You eventually share his Soundcloud so many times that you don't even realize you are doing it!

See what I did there?

When you are with the DJ, it's like living in some other alternate universe. The bouncers know your name, you make friends with the other DJs, and you try to fit in with the bassheads. You worry if they truly like you or not, and you hope they do! You basically live at the bars from Thursday night to Sunday morning, is this by choice? Most likely not. But what were you going to do instead? Sleep?

I've been out for three nights in a row and I can't feel my eardrums anymore. I just paid $5 for this mixed vodka drink, my lungs are collapsing because I "accidentally" inhaled fog juice. I just ran out of data because I had to update every social media platform during his set.

So before you ask, I'll answer. I am not a groupie and his set is over in 10 minutes. I'm more than just, "the girl with DJ."

I am his girlfriend. And no, you can't bum a cigarette off me.
