Men Like This Need Not Apply Poem by Ramona Thompson

1. Men who like to call a woman's breasts titties or boobies. Nothing turns me off more then inmature and gross term. Call 'em what they are. Tits or breasts but please not silly little names like this.

2. Married men or men with girlfriends. If you wanna stray then do it with someone else cos babe I don't play it like that.

I'm a one man woman. I expect you to be a one woman man. No playerz allowed!

3. Men who already have kids and are seeking only a stepmother for them. Thanks but no thanks. I'm not looking to deal with that kind of drama. Besides I'd much rather be the first and only mother to my man's kids anyway.

4. No guys seeking sex only! I'm a virgin and plan to stay that way until my wedding night so please don't come nosing around if all you want is to get laid. You ain't gonna get lucky. Not with this girl anyway.

5. Gay guys looking to pass themselves off as straight. Sorry but I just ain't interested in anything less then a real honest romance. Besides by being ashamed of who you are you're only gonna hurt yourself in the end.

So you're gay? So freaking what? ! Come on out of the closet already! It's not like anybodie's really gonna give a damn anyway when they all have their own messed up lifes to deal with.

6. Men who cling. E-mailing, calling and camping outside my door night after night do not I repeat do not and will not make me love or like you any more.

In fact such behavior will only serve to make me wanna dump your scary stalker ass as soon as I can. I ain't a tree gentlemen so don't cling to me like a vine or you're gonna get cut loose.

7. No mama's boys whatsoever! No, I won't wait on you hand and foot. No, I don't want you if all you are want is a mother figure in your life. Be a man not a boy and remember I want to be your lover not your mother.

8. If you have a crazy ex from your past still stalking you then please do stay far far far away from me.

I certainly ain't lookin' to be taken out by some psycho bitch who's still hung up on your and all your manly charms. Been there and done that once with an ex of my own. Not gonna go through it again thank you very much!

9. No men who like to control or hit their women. You know the deal.

Rule #1-I'm your equal or nothing at all cos I won't be with a man who treats me as anything less.

Rule #2-Hit me or attempt to hit me even once and I'm gone. No ifs ands or buts about it.

I won't be your doormat to walk on. I'm better and tougher then that.

10. No guys looking for a free ride. Earn your own cash. Pay your own bills. I'm your girlfriend not your 24/7 ATM machine.
