Boys grow up and become MEN!

Boys grow up and become MEN!
Posted By: Tiffany Wells on September 21, 2005


Okay I have been in college for about a month now and from all my friends stories and my own experiences, boys in college are still acting like boys. They are still playing chlidish games and thats not cute.



Games are for kids and if you drive a car, pay sum type of bill, or you are a college student, that means your are not a KID! That means leave the games behind, grow up, and mature. Women in college are not looking for boys, they are looking for MEN! Just a word of advice for all who wonder why girls maybe dissin you or why sumone may be mad @ u. Now guys I'm not gone put it all on you. Girls play games too. Girls yall need to stop that also. Yall who still play games need to grow up like I told to the guys! Ok just a thought I had goin thru my head!

Deep. Trust me though as you get older, you will see the same games in the 20's, 30's,40's,50's,60's,70's etc.
Where do you think the games come from?
Sis, never let life take that bold and courageous truthful voice you got.
Only the devil would try that.
"God" Bless
Sincerely
William

You have a drive to grow my sis and that is great as william replied and stated do not let nothing move your focus from going forward, vision is in the heart and mind if your heart does not grow your mind will not expand to the more brighter side of life, let them know to follow you because a boy will never lead a real woman...thats real

ok. i feel you but truth of the matter is that they are kids! I mean just beacause u hav a job and and a car doesnt make u a man, not by a long shot!!! But i understand your ya thought on the subject. Look at it from this angle most young men(if i can call them that) seem to most likely try to comform and adapt to their new surroundings. So if 75% of the campus is acting like dumbasses just guess how they are going to act. Its like a mob mentality, at heart they aint that buck, ignorant, goofy, siilly or dare i say immature as they are acting but no one is saying that its ok for them to be them. They look around and see b.s. and they believe its acceptable. it seems most dont(i mean women and men on campus) dont really mature or grow up until they damn near leaving school or out!i guess u can say its "just a stage "some come out quicker than others, and some dont ever come out! Now those negroes need counseling!!LOL anyway u just hav fun and do u, be safe down there, and live it up! once ya time passes its gone no matter how many times u return its quite not like the first time. So enjoy!!!!!!
