Thoughts and Things... The Kel Spencer Edition

#WarriorPoet- #WarriorPoet- SIDE-CHICK SYNDROME Pt. 2

"They both looked at each other in relief that it’s finally almost over. See, Greg and Samantha were taking a 90-day intensive orientation for their new job. Their new careers, required that they (along with 11 others) spend 90-days at the training facilities to fully understand the nuances of the company. The group was allowed limited physical contact with their loved ones, which forced them to become very close over these 90 days… Greg and Samantha got a little too close and Greg’s wife’s female intuition kicked in once he came home from orientation.  On the last day of Orientation, Greg and Samantha had a few drinks, and Samantha made it known what she wanted from Greg and how badly she wanted it. A few days later, Greg’s wife rolled over in the middle of the night, turned on the lamp and said, “Greg, I know you want her. You’re a man, she’s an attractive woman, I get it. My question to you is, do you love her or is this just a physical thing?” Greg was honest enough to tell her that it was just physical. She then replied with, “Well, just this once, go… have sex with her and get it out of your system. But I don’t want to hear about it after this.” What are your thoughts??
Tommy and Patricia are excited about having their first child. Patricia is due in 2 months and they’re starting to pick out baby names for the little girl who’s on the way. After a brief discussion, Tommy insists that the baby be named Veronica. That wasn’t Patricia’s top choice but she agrees. Fast forward 2 years later, Tommy’s mom asks that the couple come over and help her clean out her basement. As Patricia and Tommy’s mom are going through boxes, they come across Tommy’s old High School year book. The entire 2 pages of centerfold has an 18-picture collage of a young Tommy madly in love with his High School sweetheart… Veronica. Hmmm… What do you think?
Jimmy and Clarissa dated on and off for years. Jimmy was always into Clarissa but he wasn’t sure if he could be with her because Clarissa has a child and that’s a major commitment for Jimmy. As of late, Jimmy has been getting more and more into church and because of that, he came to the realization that because God is the one true father over us all, as a man, he has the ability to step up to the plate and also be a father to a boy who may not biologically be his own. And since, the child’s father is virtually non-existent, Jimmy recognized that there wouldn’t be any Baby Daddy drama so he decided to commit to being in his first ever monogamous relationship with Clarissa. Jimmy continued to grow in his spirituality and started to develop a certain disgust when it came to sin, especially sexual sins (ie Lust, Adultery, Fornication, etc…). At that point, he decided that he and Clarissa should stop having sex out-of-wedlock. Clarissa respected that decision and they stopped. Later, during a conversation with Clarissa and her (4-year old) son, Jimmy learned that the reason the son’s father has ZERO contact with them is because he lives states away, with his two other children and his WIFE. His wife doesn’t want him having contact with Clarissa and the son because the son’s father cheated on his wife with Clarissa and that’s how the son… Jimmy’s new non-biological son was born. Given Jimmy’s new view on Adultery, and the fact that these details are now being disclosed after he’s already in this relationship, along with the idea that the son will eventually discover what a side-chick means AND that he was conceived under those circumstances made that an interesting situation for me because… Ooops, I mean for Jimmy! Yeah, for Jimmy! But ummm… yeah, how would you feel? : /
The previous scenarios are all closely connected to this Side-Chick epidemic. In scenario 1, Is there a difference between thinking someone is attractive and actually being attracted to them? Or is it all the same?? In story #2, Is it ok that you’re in a relationship and getting devotion from a person who may not have an actual physical person on the side but they’re only giving you a percentage of their emotional investment while the rest of it is being spent on someone else? In situation #3, If you have a certain view-point on Side-Chick syndrome yet you’ve unknowingly committed to a side-chick OR the results of a person’s side-chick ways, do you just eat that or do you leave the situation? My overall point is, the term “Side-Chick” is supported by the underlying theme of emotional displacement. Your emotions should be over here, yet they’re all the way over there somewhere. And we’re all guilty of this in varying degrees. I’m wondering if we all need to start taking ourselves to emotional school at some point. Take a listen to the song below as it has a little to do with cheating, emotional immaturity, Side-Chick Syndrome and more. It’s from my 2009 Release called “Salon Stories” featuring and produced by my brother from another mother, Sonny Brix! And if you haven’t already checked out Side-Chick Syndrome Pt. 1 then YOU’RE PLAYING YOURSELF lol!!"
