yikes - this could launch a firestorm!!!! LOADS of guys are resentful about this - they feel feminism has robbed them of the ability to hold open a door, or pay for a date out of genuine chivalry. and being critical of feminism automatically = misogynist in the minds of some. loads of guys hate that too. guessing you're going to get a lot of responses to this!!!

 

You're right on the romantic gesture part. Although I will say I have been lucky , well very lucky up until recently.
Chivalry seems dead, or at least that's what the past 5 years have felt like.

 

And you know he was into you, because back then, mixtapes took effort. You couldn't just click and drag together an iTunes playlist. You had to be meticulous about that crap, pressing the record and play buttons at just the right time, having to listen to every song AS it recorded ... kids these days have no idea.

But yes, that song is utterly timeless.

 

I know I listened to it today after posting here and instant flashback to more innocent times....well not that much more innocent but rather more personal and connecting.
Now BoyzIIMen are humming in my head .....long for yesterdaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy.

 

That girl is poison.......damn you....damn you !!!

 

Boyz II Men, ABC, BBD. The east coast family.

 

OMG... When me and Rock Star got together I got a mixtape.
And it took me a minute... To realize... It was him singing On the Tape.
I absolutely about swooned over.
Singing songs like My Girl and Banana Pancakes.
Seriously.
I'll never forget it.
I shared with a friend and she actually cried.
It was probably the sweetest thing ever at that point in my life.

What has happened to all the men?
Tsk.
Honestly.... Even rebooting ... I don't think he'd think of something like that now.
I bet it'll take a few years to get that part of his brain working again.

 

And I don't mean @SuperFan & @DemonSemen and you guys... I mean the new generation of guys out there who aren't going to have a original bone in their bodies who will even try not once to make a single girl feel special.
It's sad

 

That song was a juggernaut. And of course in my town, everyone had to come out of the woodwork screaming "IT WAS A COUNTRY SONG FIRST!!!"

 

No sadly the attitude is the girl should feel special to breathe the same air as them though I guess it goes both ways.

Yes and I can love you like that.
Anyone remember Shai and Comforter ?

 

I'm not kidding you ... I can recite those lyrics by heart this very second.

When you're in pain, I'm in pain ... that's part of beeeeeeeing a friend ...

 

Well, at the risk of sounding arrogant, it takes some work to be as cool as @DemonSemen and myself.

 

IIIIIIIIII geeeeeet soooooo weakinthekneesIcanhardlyspeak ...

@novibe's journal has officially been hijacked by K-SMOOTH radio, bringing NoFap the best R&B hits from the 1990's. Stay tuned for upcoming hits from 4PM, 3T, SWV, TLC, BBD, and a ton of other abbreviated bands!

If we were all in the same room we'd be having the most amazing sing-a-long party right now. Preferably with alcohol.

 

In my mind, @Broken3 is in the cafeteria, slow-dancing with her crush from 3rd period.
