I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison...you're poison runnin through my veins Alice Cooper

She's cunning and shrewd. One glace from her is all it takes to suck you in because she is that good. Manipulations is her game and believe me, go inside little boy, you don't want to play. How do I know this? I was once, Ms. Manipulation, the biggest player I knew. Why not? Guys did it all the time. I could play that game, and I could play it better.

I had my private little BGC (Bad Girl Cell) different from my regular cell phone. The BGC was my "play" phone. Now only "Hotties" made the BGC you know, I never toyed with anything less than a hottie guy. Most Ms. Players don't play with ugly dudes, unless they are wealthy, but that was never my thing, I'm not into the digging of the gold. Too damn much work if you ask me. Plus you have to kiss them, ew. Yeah, my "Sista Playas" would do the digging and I was always in wonderment of how they could kiss the rich toads. We all played this differently, they played it for the money, and I played it for the game.

Player girls aren't sluts or tramps; they are only serial daters of sorts, social Goddesses who love men and the attention that men give to them. They don't mean to break hearts, hearts just seem to break. They don't mean harm, but harm means them. Most of them are only just seeking something, they are lost. So they go from one man to the next, to the next and so forth. They get something out of each man, something they need from each because each man is different, with something different to offer. Then they are labeled a "player" because they have so many men in their lives, different men who offer different missing pieces for her...she is "needful" so she plays? Perhaps one day she may find ONE man who can help her find all the pieces to her puzzle so she doesn't have to "seek" out the missing pieces with so many men.

Players. I hate this word. It takes me back to a place that I want to forget, when I played deserving men whose hearts I broke while seeking out my missing puzzle pieces. This casts a gloom shadow in my mind only to recall. I'm overly cautious in relationships now as to not hurt anyone these days. My only struggle is being able to give entirely of myself and I don't want to "play' somebody's emotions. Another heart I will not break, intentionally that is.

Players will only bring you heartache and tears and no one can change the ways of a player. Once a player always a player? I think not, I have known my share of players including myself who have found their way to the other side. We walk on the "safe" side now, within the lines with our eyes wide open. The smart ones won't cross that street again; the game is not worth playing again. And for you out there listening, don't play with players as enticing as they are. Play scrabble instead, its better for you.
