A friend of mine not long ago told me that "Everybody Has Issues" I'm like I don't have any Issues, She responded with...see that's an Issue! 
This is my friend....I can't believe she told me like that? 
Now I'm not one to name names ....But she is my sista from a much darker mista 
But the more we talk to people the more we realize they got issues...some bigger then others! Some don't even think it's an Issue? That's an Issue...
Lemme see.. can I break it on down for ya! 
1,Get it if you will the picture....you don't want to be in a relationship because of a past relationship that went wrong...That's an Issue!
2,You meet someone and it seems to be going just fine...suddenly you realize their controlling..That's an Issue!
3,You start talking with someone and decide to meet for a date, they start laying down the ground rules..That's an Issue!
4,Your talking with someone and they suddenly want you to account for who you talk to and what was said? That's an Issue!
5,Your talking with someone and they want to know everyone you slept with or have dated? That's an Issue!
6,They want to tell you how you should be in public or what to wear? That's an Issue!
7,If you meet someone here and they start to tell you how you should respond to people on the message boards, or who you shouldn't respond too...That's an Issue!
8,They try to tweak or critique your personality for your own good? That's an Issue!
9,They try to tell you how to be a parent, or expect you change your ways to fit theirs? That's an Issue!
10,They always have to be right or try to make you feel bad because you don't agree with them? That's an Issue!
11,You better answer your phone when they call or have a good explanation? That's an Issue!
12,Your on the phone with them and the other line is clicking they want to know who it is? That's an Issue!
13,They want you to tell them how much you like them all the time..That's an Issue!
14,They feel like they own you and you should be Thankful they are in your life? That's an Issue!
15,They only want to talk about them self, and expect you think they are wonderful? That's an Issue!
16,They only want to talk about sex, or ask many personal questions that's really non of their business, but they somehow feel they have a right to know? That's an Issue!
17,They believe the relationship is all about them, and you should be happy just to be there? That's an Issue!
18,They don't want you to have friends especially of the opposite sex? That's an Issue!
19,They are obsessed with you and feel they have the right to tell you how to be? That's an Issue!
20,They are Jealous of you and don't want others to talk with you? That's an Issue!
21,They are needy and clingy and won't let the other breathe? That's an Issue!
22,They always need you to tell them how good looking or pretty they are? That's an Issue!
23,Their not truthful with you and say things, they think you want to hear? That's an Issue!
24,Their Ego won't allow them to just be real for fear of your not going to like them? That's an Issue!
25,They want to get you in bed before they get into your head so you don't see the real them? That's an Issue!
26,They want your password so they can see who your talking with? That's an Issue!
27,Their always checking up on you to see if your talking with others? That's an Issue!
28,They want to know what you say to others? That's an Issue!
29,They want to know what others say about them? That's an Issue!
30, Their very smooth and charming until you say No! The they lose their freakin minds and say mean things to you That's an Issue!
Now I know their are plenty of other Issues then what I've listed but this gives you a general idea of some of the Dating Issues we have to put up with in the name of Love or Dating! I might have been guilty of one or two of these a time or two in my day...  But now I'm Issue free....  I don't have any Issues but I have dated some Issues...
I know what some of you are thinking? POPO are you really Issue Free?  Awww that is the question? Let me just say this... I got Issues with you asking me a question like that! 
Have you ever met or dated an Issue?
POPO
P.S. Disclaimer...if anyone takes this personal That's an Issue!

Blue....see that's what I'm talking about...That's an issue... The crazy part of it all is, men don't really want to know the real history, to them two is too many I have no idea why they ask these questions? They act like their planting the flag for the first time.....
Besides women don't "Ever"say how many they have really been with...Women only count them by relationships...
Personally I think they should just be glad your on a date with them now..
History really should remain a Mystery..it's not like it changes anything..

OMG POPO,
Now POPO we all know that you have issues...maybe you don't recognize them as issues but.... like your cute little icons seperating your sentences! Mmmmm now that can be viewed as an issue. Maybe the icons are your way of showing emotions that you have trapped inside.....
My issue is wandering around this site reading blogs but never attempting to write one myself.
An issue is anything that bothers another person. And I don't care who you are "that's funny".

Now to be serious.... 
yes I have experienced alot of issues in dating. Some theirs and some mine. I really don't know how not to have issues. Our past experiences always leaves us with some kind of issue. My goal is to not let them effect me in the future. That's all any of us issue challenged folks can ask for.

yes I have experienced alot of issues in dating. Some theirs and some mine. I really don't know how not to have issues. Our past experiences always leaves us with some kind of issue. My goal is to not let them effect me in the future. That's all any of us issue challenged folks can ask for.
No it's not.... you can ask For Dr.Popo's advice that's what I'm here for... Our past is just that...our past, let it go! learn from it, as you have.. Goals are good, may I suggest your first goal? First of all as your Doctor you have to trust me.. that's what my proctologist said to me.. I'm kidding
Your first Goal is to become Issue free...so everytime a Issue comes up, their will be a lil Popo on your shoulder whispering in your ear...Don't fall for it...it's an Issue Now see if you can get that image of lil Popo out of your mind... He's there now baby.....

See there you go POPO... I have an issue when you leave images in my mind. I have enough floating around in there I don't need lil' POPO in there messing up the flow!
Now doctor please tell me if you have any advise on how to let all the issues just go.. Is there a drug for letting go? NOPE didn't think so... you just have to work thru it. Or just laugh at yourself and listen to friends you trust!

Angel....We need to have several sessions, are you laying down? We need to work out all this confusion... First of all I can help, Why I had one patient one time who was laying on their desk to read their screen, because the screen somehow shifted sideways, and we worked through that problem, so see...I'm a problem solver.. We had to take it one issue at a time, first we turned the screen on it's side so the patient could view it sitting up..you see one issue at a time..

Come on now.... how would Lil Popo mess up the flow...he's a comforter, think of him as your security blanket..
Now doctor please tell me if you have any advise on how to let all the issues just go.. Is there a drug for letting go? NOPE didn't think so... you just have to work thru it. Or just laugh at yourself and listen to friends you trust!
Okay first of all you need to lay down and get comfortable...dang I love this job.. Okay...yes their is a new drug being tested right now...it's called Popolicious, I know I know, whatcha thinkin.. but this drug is different then others It's a time release experience, that slowly relaxes and eases your thoughts into Popoland, it's very easy on the heart and soothes the mind..
I only write these prescriptions for those who can handle it..
