So have you ever gone on a date with someone that sucked the life out of the entire room? Perhaps he/she was a Debbie Downer, rubbed you the wrong way, or just killed the moment? Well, we call these people BUZZKILLS. Now I’m certain we’ve all had our very own buzzkill moments and here are some suggestions on how NOT to be a buzzkill on future dates. Don’t bring up a bunch of sh*t that nobody cares about for the sake of having conversation Of course, we want conversations to flow naturally, but it’s important to really THINK before we speak.

What Is That Smell?
So I was on a weekend road trip with my sorority sisters, as we had a step competition. Being the devastating, dynamic, divas that we are, of course we came in first place. [Know us! Lol] Anyway right after the show, we were chilling in our hotel room with the local sorors and some of their guy friends.

Our date lasted for a few hours…we laughed, talked, and really…

I called him to let him know that I was having car trouble and asked if he wanted to reschedule or if he could hold off for another hour because I was waiting for roadside assistance to…

Get Out Of My Uterus
Dear family, friends, and strangers: I am writing this message on behalf of women all over the world who do not have children, are not having more children, cannot have children, and any scenario that relates to our desire and/or ability to reproduce. STOP asking us when we are having kids, if we want them, what we are waiting for, if we are making room for another and ALL the invasive questions and comments (usually before an audience) that for so many, are painful and damn offensive. Some of you are as comfortable walking into our reproductive journey as you are a 7-11 and we wish you would stop. “Stop telling…
