Yo gurl, THANK GOD.
I’m going to take a brief moment to relate a recent story, one which I’m sure many a trusty wingwoman can secretly admit and relate:
This is basically how I, one of the most giving homegirls there is, felt one random Wednesday night with homegirl: THANK GOD I GOT THE CUTE ONE THIS TIME.
ain’t no shame, gurl. it’s rough sometimes. there are just nights when you need to...

just be there
happiness is contagious and sometimes so is swag. just letting your homie know that no matter what the night brings you are in this game together can mean a whole lot. it’s the easiness of playing off each other’s game, each other’s trust, that can elevate.
TRUST.
in whatever way the night decides to go, you know when shit goes down, YOU GOOD.

For every one for you, two for me.
Homeboy and I were at this lounge/club/bar thang the other night and I really had no goals for me or him but it turns out, when you go in with nothing you can very well come out with some personal bests without realizing.
Keep in mind this is on winging for your homeboy.
A pick up line to get it started:
“You’re so pretty, why are you sitting alone?! let dance.”
Girls will...
when in doubt, duck into the nearest closet.
Over the weekend, I accompanied Homegirl to a party in Brooklyn. Said party was filled with beautiful, and quite interesting people. It was a good time. But let me just share a few things as I made my through this crowd handsome strangers.
Since Homegirl was busy with an Aussie, I, of course, in good natured ease went from awkward guest to tipsy long-lost-friend to all (and eventually slightly...
As Long As She's Happy....
… can sometimes be a mantra, and sometimes it has to be.
You know those times when homegirl is talking to a Questionable and you’re like
But FOR SOME REASON she is all about that shit. So you know what, when it comes down to it, it’s not your life. There’s only so much a wingwoman can do and at the end of the day, homegirl’s gonna choose to be with whomever...

Pro-tip #4: Be Calm and Get On Rotation
If you find yourself one fated night in the midst of a circle of say 8-10 males versus you and homegirl, i know it’s hard not to be like
and if said males are all good looking and you feel like you may have cheated the rest of the single female world in [insert city], it’s hard not to be all
but come on, no one is judging you, they envy you. (haters gon’ hate.) and indeed,...
Exceeds Expectation
Homegirl aptly suggested, after recent relations, that I should add another grade to the system:
S = Satisfactory
N= Needs Improvement
U= Unsatisfactory, more effort needed
T= Troll
E= Exceeds Expectation
This is generally for those ones who you didn’t expect to stick around but then 4 weeks later you find yourself with a pretty reliable cuddle buddy for the winter. What a pleasant...

The Grading System
Recent revelations have resulted in the decision to formally adopt the Elementary School/Hogwarts Grading System going forward in life (re: opposite sex). That is:
S = Satisfactory
N= Needs Improvement
U= Unsatisfactory, more effort needed
T= Troll
best wishes to all.
P.S.

Pro-Tip #3: The Art of the Cockblock
We all have that friend who is just too nice sometimes. It’s not that they can’t say no, they are just too nice in general and give too much, undeserving benefit of the doubt; and/or they’re just trapped by two douches and a dick. It’s all quite unfortunate. And we ourselves also just have our days when all we can think when faced with some of these characters at some bars...
Pro-Tip #2: Accessibility
Let’s be real. When you’re out with your homegirls, it’s not just to “get a few drinks” and go home. You are cruisin’ for babes. That’s just fact. Don’t lie. Now I know it’s easy to get comfortable with your homegirls and just keep to yourselves but come on, a diligent wingwoman has to realize that accessibility is key.
A homeboy recently...
Pro-Tip #1: Getting in the "zone"
It just takes one line, ladies:
“So what can I help YOU with tonight?”
Put simply, you just gotta beat them to the punch. In order to be there for your homegirls and to fend off any unwanted attention without being a complete standoffish bitch, you become one of them. Put them in the friend zone before they even realize you’re the hottest (and coolest) bitch in the room (no...
Let's Get This Straight
All conceit aside, we ladies are blessed with an almost uncanny ability to detect when a brotha’ is on the prowl and/or interested. Whether it’s the slow two-step shuffle to get closer to “chat” or the blatant “So you girls gonna’ get crazy tonight?”, the buzzer goes on in our minds and we are essentially on alert mode all night for this homie who is just waiting to holla. But cute or not,...
