We Broke Up But Still Live Together (Can Ex's Cohabitate?)
Dear NWSO, I’m 19 and my relationship is currently on hold. I know I’m young but I need some advice. My boyfriend is 21 and we’ve been together for five years on and off. We first hooked up in high school. I moved to Cali for two years and we separated but he later came [...]
Don't Fish For Compliments (Are You That Self-Conscious?)
Don’t you hate when you see something bad about to happen before it does and you can’t do anything to stop it? Well, that’s exactly what happened to my boy Reggie the other day when he put his foot in his mouth. I’ve been trying to get this computer program from Reggie for a minute [...]
6 Signs Your Relationship is Over (Can You See It Coming?)
Whether romantic or platonic, relationships can be very complex. They tend to start off fun and exciting, but if you don’t play your cards right they can quickly spiral towards self-destruction.

Yeah, I Farted So What (Do You Pass Gas in Public?)
I’m not sure if the same goes for the ladies, or other guys for that matter, but I’ve found that whenever I go to the bathroom to tinkle I sometimes wind up farting accidentally. Hey, I’m just keeping it real with y’all. It’s a totally natural body function and completely fine to let one rip [...]
Seven Things Not To Say In Bed (Sorry, That Turns Me Off)
I’m sure that BlogXilla, Fly Guy, Single Black Male or Until I Get Married have done a list like this already, because like Nas said, “No idea’s original.” Matter of fact, Mr. Jones didn’t even come up with that statement himself but that’s beside the point. Despite the fact that it may or may not [...]
Why Do Men Disappear? (It’s Not You It’s Her)
Dear NWSO! I have one of those questions that will remain a mystery but I still want the opinion of a well-rounded man in matters of the heart. LOL. I met a really cool guy and we had a great vibe from the gate. He’s 33 and I’m 29. We talked all the time and [...]
