50 CENT GETS WSHH SHUT DOWN?!

(AllHipHop News) Rapper 50 Cent sent a tweet out to his 3,888,543 million followers and took credit for shutting down popular urban website, WorldstarHipHop.com.

The site went down without warning earlier today (January 24th).

Just moments ago, 50 Cent took to Twitter and took credit for the site's disruption, squashing rumors that the site was seized by Homeland Security, like several other websites in November of 2010.

"I don't know why people underestimate me. I just shut down WORLDSTAR for future advertising contact thisis50.com suckers lol," 50 Cent tweeted. "I put worldstar to bed, you don't believe try me I will shut your sh*t down. Lol."

In November of 2009, 50 Cent filed a lawsuit against the website, claiming his image and content was used on the website without permission.

“I have lawyers on retainers and I have to pay them so much money anyway, so we’ll go back and forth to court until (they) can’t afford a Subway sandwich,” 50 Cent said in 2009. “It’s already too late for (them).”

Reps for WorldStarHipHop.com denied that 50 Cent shut the website down.

"It's temporarily down not shut down, we'll be releasing a formal statement in a bit," said a rep for the site. prediction that may come true this week.

"I predict 2 more web sites will shut down this week. Take a guess who they are. I'm sick of the hate I'm to strong," 50 Cent tweeted.

Atlanta Woman Abducted as Infant in 1987 Reunites With Family…

Over 20 years has passed since a newborn, sick with fever, was abducted from a New York City hospital.

Carlina White was just 19 days old when she disappeared from Harlem Hospital on Aug. 4, 1987.  Police searched high and low for her kidnappers but never found enough evidence to charge any suspects.

The child’s frantic mother, Joy White, ached for her missing child but always had a feeling that her baby was alive somewhere.

On Wednesday, (January 19, 2011), police said the baby, now a grown woman living in Atlanta, has finally been found and you’ll never believe how…

The missing infant is now 23 years old and has been living in Atlanta as Nejdra Nance. She was raised in Bridgeport, Conn.

Nance contacted White, sending along baby photos that looked nearly identical to shots of Carlina posted on a missing children’s website, and told White she thought she may be her missing daughter.

The White Family reunited

“She said she just had a feeling, she felt different from the people raising her,” said Nance’s maternal grandmother, Elizabeth White, 71. “She searched, and then she found Joy.”

Joy White contacted the New York Police Department to see if it could help investigate whether the woman was really Carlina White.

“It sounded legitimate and credible, so I had missing persons reach out to her,” said Detective Martin Brown, who fielded the call.

DNA tests performed on Joy White, her ex-husband, Carl Tyson, and 23-year-old Nance matched, police said. Nejdra Nance was indeed Carlina White!

As part of their investigation, police are talking to retired detectives who handled the case years ago. Because she was so young when she was kidnapped, it’s impossible for Nance to know if she has lived with the same family the entire time.

Nance came to New York with her 5-year-old daughter, Samani, where she was finally reunited with her parents, 23 years after being kidnapped from her mother’s hospital bed.

“It was wonderful, she didn’t even seem like a stranger, she just fit right in,” Elizabeth White said. “We all went up there, we had dinner together, her aunts were there. She brought her beautiful daughter. It was magic.”

Elizabeth White said she didn’t ask Nance too many questions about how she grew up or how she knew she was not a member of the family with whom she lived. She didn’t want to push Nance too much.

“That will all come,” Elizabeth White said of the history. “What’s important now is our baby girl is home. She’s home.”

CONGRATS ♥ MONICA & SHANNON HAVE TIED THE KNOT ♥

Could it be true? Monica has been named "wifey" of NBA player, Shannon Brown, for TWO whole months and hasn't said a word?!

Well...Well..Wellllll...The rumors are INDEED true: Monica and Shannon Brown are indeed MARRIED. An official with the NBA also confirmed the marriage, which took place in Los Angeles on November 22, 2010.


A friend of Shannon Brown’s says he is relieved that the news is out because he respects his wife and he has been wearing his wedding band recently. The friend said Shannon and Monica plan to wed officially in front of family and friends (again) in Los Angeles in June.

CONGRATS to the NewlyWeds..I wish them nothing but Love & Happiness. BLACK LOVE is such a wonderful thing & I am always the first to congratulate a young couple who has decided to live their lives in unison. ♥

Keyshia Cole gives her LONG TIME Manager, Manny the BOOT!

Keyshia Cole may have decided to place the blame of her poor album sales on manager Manny Halley. Her fourth musical effort, Calling All Hearts, debuted at #9 on the Billboard 200 and has sold about 181,300 to date. It seems as if business isn't being handled properly, and she's decided to split.
Cole announced her decision via Twitter:

This news comes with a bit of shock for many fans. Appearing in several episodes of Keyshia's reality show The Way It Is, Manny was the driving force behind reconnecting the "I Ain't Thru" singer with estranged family members and relentlessly pushing her career in a positive direction.
There are no word on exactly why Keyshia pulled down the axe on Manny. 

WHERE'S THE PHYSICAL???

Are you being picky? I mean your significant other will always have flaws! So do you just accept this as being a flaw?  There are so many questions that need to be answered.  Tell me what you guys think!   

HAPPY MLK DAY!!!

In celebration of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday, I would like to share some of my favorite Dr. King quotes::


Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent.
Martin Luther King, Jr.


Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.

Weezy's Twitter Account HACKED?!

Lil Wayne's Twitter account is used to send shocking messages to other emcees, fans.

Lil Wayne's Twitter account (@liltunechi) was hacked yesterday (January 16) by an unknown individual.
Upon accessing the rapper's account, the hacker changed the name from "@liltunechi" to "@lilchinetu," and got to work sending out shocking messages to fans and other emcees alike.

Among the insults hurled by the hacker in Wayne's stead were directed at Soulja Boy. "I sent a donations to your paypal, check it, I heard you got 13,000 sales lil homie, i feel bad for you! #DamnSoulja"

Other emcees to feel the hacker's wrath included The Game and Fat Joe, Tweeting, "@thegame you still owe me money for that My Life joint, how your family crip but you blood," as well as "@JOEYCRACKTS you fat ass nigga it on when i see you Why."

The hacker also Tweeted insulting messages regarding Wayne. "The real reason I made 6'7 is cuz that's how tall the nigga in rikers was that raped me," the individual tweeted about Lil Wayne to the shock of his fans.

"I went an entire year with kissing baby #withdrawls," read the next Tweet.

Whoever is in control of Wayne's account now - be it Wayne or still the hacker - claims that Wayne has regained control of his account, though it seems unlikely given that the account name still reads @lilchinetu. The reported new account for wayne is @LilTunechi_YM.

STAY IN YOUR CAR!

On yesterday night, around 8 o'clock my friend was hit by a car on the interstate.  Her and her baby was on the way home and got a blow out.  So her natural instinct was to get out of the car and look.  As she got out, a car hit her and she went underneath her car.  She isn't in as bad a shape as she could have been.  But she's blessed!  Some people don't make it out of these type of accidents to even tell about it.  Keep her in your prayers.   

Has your ZODIAC SIGN changed?!

If you're the type of person who relies on mysterious-sounding locations of stars to determine your personality and outcome in life, get ready to be shocked.

According to the Minnesota Planetarium Society, here is where the real signs of the Zodiac should fall. Get ready for your world to change forever.

Capricorn: Jan. 20-Feb. 16.
Aquarius: Feb. 16-March 11.
Pisces: March 11-April 18.
Aries: April 18-May 13.
Taurus: May 13-June 21.
Gemini: June 21-July 20.
Cancer: July 20-Aug. 10.
Leo: Aug. 10-Sept. 16.
Virgo: Sept. 16-Oct. 30.
Libra: Oct. 30-Nov. 23.
Scorpio: Nov. 23-29.
Ophiuchus: Nov. 29-Dec. 17.  (Yuup, this one is new )
Sagittarius: Dec. 17-Jan. 20.

So, NOW according to this NEW sign, Ophichus (or whatever its called), I am NOT a Leo, but instead a Virgo. I, personally think that this a whole bunch of HOOPLA, BULLS%T, CRAP, ect. If the signs have been this way for 3000 freakin years, why even bother to change them now?!

I have been hearing that if you were born before 2009, that this change doesn't affect you...(As if that makes it better). So, if you have a child that was born in 2009 or later, their signs are completely different now? GTFOH!

Not that Zodiac Signs are AT ALL important, but to me, its like saying: Yea, we have been saying the alphabet WRONG for 50 ZILLION years. We forgot one... How the heck would that work?!

A HOTT MESS!

GUCCI MANE's INSANITY CONFIRMED!!!!

After being released from a mental institution...
Gucci Mane gets ice cream tattoo on HIS FACE!!

The rapper, who was recently released from a psychiatric facility after pleading "mental incompetency" regarding a probation violation, had an ice cream cone tattooed onto his face Wednesday.

Gucci Mane, 30, is sporting a cone with three scoops on his right cheek, complete with the word "Brrr" and several red lightning bolts.

The ink was completed by tattoo artist Shane Willoughby, according to piercer Jason Murray, who posted photos of the two on Twitter.

Mane claimed in court on Jan. 3 that he was unable to "intelligently participate in the probation revocation hearing." He was then committed to a mental health facility, where he was to be evaluated.

It is unclear why he was released or what it means for his probation status.

While Mane’s legal problems date back to 2001, his most recent issues stem from resisting arrest in November following an alleged assault.

***SMFH***

Britany Daniels's ROLE as "Kellie Pitts" on the hit series, The Game, has been MINIMIZED!

\

After being canceled on The CW and bought back to life by the BET network, “The Game” made its debut to rave reviews earlier this week….However, since the cast has been promoting the show, Brittany Daniels has been noticeably absent from a lot of the promos lately and our readers have been hitting us up to find out why.  Although, we haven’t pinpointed the exact reason she has been missing in action, we have found out that her character Kelly Pitts has been downgraded to a recurring character on the show.  She revealed this last year, while speaking with Vibe about some of the changes on the show:

What’s different for me is I was a series regular before and now I’m just a reoccurring character on the show. We did 13 episodes and I’m just contracted to do six. Another change is that we’re shooting in Atlanta and that’s different. [The Game was previously filmed in Los Angeles.]

Wow, that’s really disappointing. Did the powers that be tell you why they reduced your role?
I wasn’t happy about it, I wanted to do all the episodes but I think it was a financial thing. So I think the biggest difference for me between working for CW and BET is on the CW I made more money [laughs]. But the reason I came back to do the show is that I love the show. And I love, love the people that I work with so even though it came down to [my reduced role] I had to be supportive of the rest of the cast. I know me not showing up would affect a lot of story lines differently so I decided to be a team player anyway.

Are there any other changes in having The Game going from a network to a basic cable channel?
We’re shooting thirteen episodes at one time. So we’ll be finished with shooting thirteen episodes in a month and a half. The first day of my shooting day I did a scene from the last episode. Then after lunch you might be shooting a scene from the first episode. So that was really challenging to keep up with where you are in the story from hour to hour.

Whoa. Really? Most dramas and sitcoms take several months to shoot a whole season worth of shows.
It was challenging and weird doing it this way. Because when I was shooting an episode a week I had a whole week to absorb what my character was going thru. And I would get very connected to the character, because I’d be living it. But now it’s like, ‘Oh now I’m doing the very end of the season with all this dramatic stuff going on but we haven’t done all the scenes prior so I don’t really know where I’m at.’ Or I’m mentioning a character, like Tasha’s boyfriend and I haven’t even met the actor who plays him yet. I don’t even know who he is and I’m already talking about him. But I told myself, I’ll just do the best I can. That’s all you can do—the best you can under these circumstances.

Because of your work in The Game and the black films you’ve appeared in, I hear your co-workers on the The Game say you have an inner black girl…
[Laughs] I have people come up to me and ask you really date black men don’t you and I say I do [Daniel is currently dating Keenan Ivory Wayans] and they say I can tell. And my cast members always say, ‘Oh Brittany is black, she is a sister.’ It’s so hilarious. I always end up working on African American productions. I worked with the Wayans on two movies [White Chicks and Little Man, I did The Game for a few years, and when I did Skyline Donald Faison is my boyfriend. It happens so many times.

TREY SONGZ "LOVE FACES" TOUR 2011

Trey Songz Releases His New Joint “Spray” &  Plans His

 2011 "Love Faces" Tour

Trey Songz, the R&B crooner who’s got his mind in the gutter and his clothes usually somewhere on the floor, is preparing to embark on his Love Faces 2011 tour, named after a song on his album Passion, Pain & Pleasure (as well as his own personal “love” faces). Is the notion of experiencing Songz live in the flesh already too hot and heavy for you? Better not listen to “Spray”, a previously unreleased tune of the singer’s that found its way online today. Sings Songz: “Girl I’m hearing what you say/ I can tell you really want to play/ If you want it your way, you gon’ have to spray.” We don’t think he’s talking about perfume. Listen to the Salaam Remi-produced track below.

Trey Songz – “Spray”

Though pure R&B, it’s got a nice little doo-wop vibe to it, though it sounds unfinished. Plus, the image we’re getting of either party “spraying” one another with anything, from a bottle of seltzer to their own love juices, doesn’t necessarily scream sexy to us. It’s more jolting, than anything. But we guess “Release Gently And With Due Warning” isn’t as catchy a title as “Spray”.
Here are the first (only?) four dates on Songz’s Valentine’s Day weekend mini-tour:
Love Faces 2011 Tour
2/11: New York City – Venue TBD
2/12: Washington, D.C. – Dar Constitution Hall
2:13:  Detroit, Mich. – Detroit Opera House
2:14: Chicago, Ill. – The Chicago Theatre

ITS GAME DAY!!!! 1.11.11 {Leggggggo}

After the longest break in history, one of our FAVE, black, scripted television shows have decided to return to us. *sighs of relief*

The Game is one of the most anticipated events in cable television history would undoubtedly come with events of its own. FAITHFUL viewers of The Game [like MOI] have been looking forward to 1.11.11 ever since BET plastered the date across TV screens months ago, announcing that the sitcom would be airing on its station more than a year and a half after being cancelled by The CW.

For many, the nonstop reruns over the past year either helped them keep their seat warm as they awaited the show's return or allowed first-time viewers to get caught up on what all the fuss was about. You might choose to tune into BET Tuesday night at 10 p.m. for the hour-long season premiere from the comforts of your home. But if you want to make a party out of it, here are a couple of options.

There are The Game Premier parties all over town, but it doesn't matter WHERE you watch it, but THAT you watch it. This is definitely going to be EPIC>>>Don't Miss It!! I know I wont : )

Tonight>>1.11.11 10p/9c on BET<<

DO WE HEAR WEDDING BELLS for Regina King & Malcom Jamal-Warner?!

Regina King and Malcolm Jamal-Warner are reportedly preparing to tie the knot after over two years of dating. Both actors were child stars in the 80's and developed a friendship early on. An insider tells Showbiz Spy that King and Warner are very much the happy couple.

“Malcolm and Regina are thrilled that they’ve found the most satisfying relationship of their lives. They’re both extremely content right now, and marriage is the next step,” the source said.

King covers the February issue of Essence magazine and gushes about her "soul mate."
 “Malcolm and I have a lot in common. We've both been child actors and were also blessed to be raised by incredible mothers who instilled good values in us. Things are maturing nicely."

The Southland star has a 13-year-old son from a previous marriage, but that doesn't stop Warner from treating him like his own. It's nice to see Brenda Jenkins (227) and Theo Huxtable (The Cosby Show)do the right thing--more black love that rocks!

Basketball Wives Dramaaaaa Tami Vs Jennifer

Jenn & Tami look pretty friendly in this pic, but to the CONTRARY, they went at it on the latest episode of Basketball Wives.

If You missed last night's episode of Basketball Wives, you missed the most dramaaaa & the REALest fight scene ever shown on the series. Usually there are a bunch of empty threats, drinks being thrown, & yelling...

BUT not last night. The newest cast member, Tami Roman got BUCK WILD at the Charity Event and things got completely out of control.

First, Ev & Jenn did NOT get invited to Ashley's charity event & decide to CRASH (so petty). Tami got pissy drunk & went bonkers on Jenn from her previous comment about "I have never seen a food stamp". Mind you, minutes before they arrived, Tammi was telling everyone how much she liked Ev & Jenn and she even told Suzie that she didnt know if she could be friends with her because of her friendship w/ Jenn & Ev.

Well, I guess she can blame it on the alcohol all she wants,but her reaction was ignorant and uncaused for. She was at an elegant CHARITY even, when she decided to go off on Jenn, removing her shoes, cursing, and acting a complete ass...

Here's a clip of the dramaaaaaa that went on inside of Ashley's charity event. Was Tami out of line?

You be the judge?

T.I. & Tiny Making Love in the Club...Oh my bad I mean JAILHOUSE?! Hmm..

(AllHipHop News) T.I. was reprimanded in prison, after security guards caught the Atlanta rapper engaged in a sexual act with his wife, Tameka "Tiny" Cottle. 

The rap star is serving a year-long sentence at Arkansas State Prison for violating the terms of his previous probation, stemming from an incident in September of 2010, when he and his wife were busted for possession of ecstasy in Los Angeles. 

According to TMZ.com, guards caught T.I. and Tiny engaged in the sexual act during regular visiting hours at the prison, which adheres to strict guidelines when it comes to prisoners and visitors. 

Making love in the CLUB  Jailhouse huh ya'll??!  SMH

Another BASKETBALL WIFE decides to show her goodies!!

My FAVE newlyweds are getting their OWN spin-off reality show!

Add one more to the list of Kardashians to keep up with: Khloe Kardashian is set to become the star of her own reality show.

The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star and her husband, Lamar Odom will open up their day-to-day lives on the new E! show, Khloe & Lamar.

"Ok dolls, it's official! Lamar and I will soon begin filming our very own show on E!," she announced on her blog Wednesday. "WOOOOHOOOOOOOO! How exciting is this?! It's been an option since we got married, but we wanted to enjoy our first year in private."

Kardashian promises "a lot of laughs," and insists fans of her family's show haven't seen anything yet when it comes to her life with Odom.

"Only a very small part of our life together is shown, but with this show, we're putting it ALL out there LOL," she writes. "[My brother] Rob will play a major role in this too since he lives with us. He's basically like our son LOL. With the three of us living together, it's honestly like a sitcom."

She adds, "Lamar and I could not be more thrilled about this. It's show time baby!!!!"

Next up for the family, however, is Kourtney & Kim Take New York, which premieres on Jan. 23.
I've absolutely LOVED Lamar & Khloe's relationship every since it was aired on their wedding episode. I think their love story is such a fairy tale. Like seriously, who meets, falls in love, and gets MARRIED in a month?! Not many people, which is why so many doubted the validity of their relationships & their motives for marriage, BUT through it all, they have slapped all of the nay sayers in the face by proving their love.

Christina discusses her feelings about her DIVORCE in Latina Mag!

Adding to the list of February 2011 magazines hitting newsstands on 1.11.11, is the latest issue of Latina magazine featuring the beautiful Christina Milian. The singer/actress graces the cover wearing a strapless cocktail dress which boasts a variety of colors, prints and patterns, accented with a statement necklace, ring and multiple bracelets. Though Milian talks about loosing the pregnancy weight in her article, one can clearly see that she is back in shape and ready to take on the world. “I feel brand new. I’ve been to hell and back, but I survived. I’m stronger for it and now I’m ready for the next phase of my life,” she says.

Here's an EXCLUSIVE snippet of her interview::

On her failed marriage: “No matter what, you can’t change who you are. I know that now. I tried to be someone I wasn’t because I wanted my marriage to work. But ultimately, if it’s not working, it’s not working.”

On the cheating scandal: “I didn’t know anything. But looking back, my gut was telling me something was off. But I thought I could fix it.”

On lessons learned: “I learned a lot about myself this year. I learned what I can handle. I learned how much I can take. I learned who I am and what I will accept for myself and my daughter.”

On becoming a mom: “Being a new mother definitely makes me feel so much sexier than ever before. There’s a certain responsibility that I carry being a mom that makes me feel very confident and so blessed. Being a mom is the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”

On what’s next: “I feel brand new. I’ve been to hell and back, but I survived. I’m stronger for it and now I’m ready for the next phase of my life.”

Read the entire interview in Feb's issue of Latina Mag!

Guess the two are an item AGAIN...

 From the looks of these pictures that were taken YESTERDAY (1/4/11) outside of the NY studios, where they taped an appearance on ‘Late Show with David Letterman, I can SAFELY say that Hoops & Shaq ARE BACK TOGETHER!

 

Is lying the ONLY way to end a relationship?!

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you were dating someone and for whatever reason you or the the other person lost interest and then "poof" they were gone? Sometimes with no explanation?

Sometimes they LIE to get out of the relationship, but WHY?!

Is it because they want to spare the other person's feelings, or is it because they just don't know how to end it and are avoiding conflict or confrontation at all costs? Why can't people be more mature and honest with each other during a breakup?

I would think that if two people could be honest about why they weren't compatible would be a stepping stone to the next learning experience. I think, trying to take away something positive in your relationships might help you to be SUCCESSFUL in the next one. 

What are your thoughts as to why this happens?

Vivica Fox ENGAGED?!

Just last month, in an interview on the Wendy Williams show, the 47 year old actress, Vivica Fox admitted to wanting to have a baby in the very near future with her 27 year old, club promoter boyfriend, Omar "Slim" White.
WELL, the news just broke that the two may, indeed be ENGAGED now! Reports are saying that they had been staying at the Ritz Carlton on South Beach over the holidays & on the day after Christmas is when he POPPED THE QUESTION!!

The (2) have been dating a little over a year & if everything goes accordingly, this will be Vivica's 2nd marriage.

Vivica, you go girlllll!!!

Man found INNOCENT after serving 30 YEARS in prison!!!!

DALLAS – A Texas man had his conviction overturned Tuesday for a rape & robbery [he DIDN'T commit] after serving 30 YEARS in prison, more time than any other inmate subsequently exonerated by DNA evidence in his state.

Cornelius Dupree Jr., 51, was formally cleared of the aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon conviction that had kept him behind bars from December 1979 until July of 2010. He served 30 years of his 75-year sentence before making parole in July. About a week later, DNA RESULTS came back proving his innocence.

"It's a joy to be free again," Dupree said after the ruling in a Dallas courtroom.

Dupree is the longest-serving inmate cleared by DNA EVIDENCE in Texas, which has freed 41 wrongly convicted inmates through DNA since 2001 — more than any other state.

I, personally think that this is horrific to have an INNOCENT person behind bars for a crime that they did NOT commit, for such an long period of time. "Time' is the one thing that can not be given back and to have this man spend 30 YEARS of his life in prison, away from his family and friends, and w/o any real connection to the outside world is without a doubt WRONG. Begging this person's pardon is simply NOT enough. An apology should be the least of the many things this man is given upon his release. There should be some extreme INCENTIVES that come along with being released from prison and the persons responsible for making such a mistake should be PUNISHED to the extreme also (a slap on the rist is just unacceptable)!

The terrible thing about the whole situation (as odd as it may sound) He is one of the LUCKY ones. There are many people who are serving time for a crime they did not commit & there are only rare occasions where innocent people are proven as such. SMH

IT'S A NEW YEAR! WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?

The new year has begun and everyone has their New Year's resolution.  But are you going to keep these resolutions or it's just something to say that sounds good.  I didn't have any new resolutions. I want to get closer to GOD, become more humble, work on my attitude, stop letting little things bother me, and ge healthier.  Now I already started this in the later part of the year.  So I'm just trying to get better with my goals.  My overall goal is to become a better person and I'm not going to wait until the 1st of the year to work on this.  But nothing is wrong if you want a New Year's resolution.  I just want you to stick with it.     

SHOULD THERE BE A LIMIT ON TEXTING?

It seems everyone knows how to text, from the little kids to the elderly! Texting is the new form of communication for a lot of people.  But my question is, is there a such thing as too much texting? My answer is HELL YES!  Lately, every new man that I've met wants to text.  At that very first conversation, I let it be known.  I DO NOT TEXT THE 1ST TIME I TALK TO SOMEONE!  I feel texting is very informal, especially for a man that is trying to pursue a woman.  Now I'm not saying you can't ever text me, because sometimes I do just like to text.  But our very 1st encounter shouldn't be on a text message.  How can we make a connect over text messaging? Sometimes texting can be taken the wrong way.  You may think it was said one way, but in reality it wasn't. I'm a victim of reading too much into things.  So I would prefer the old fashioned way, telephone.  One of my friends says he's very indirect, non confrontational, and doesn't like to talk on the phone. Ok, if you say so sir. LMAO!  But hey, this is just my opinion. But I would like to get others opinion on the subject, especially men.
