I have too much unreleased or unwritten content so instead of making certain thoughts a dedicated post I'm going to implement brain dumps as need be.
Welcome to part 2 of random thoughts with Erica Nicole
I'm insecure about my body for a number of reasons. I want to get some work done (no I'm never putting anything in my ass) and no I don't care who disagrees with my decision. I can't wait to say "Old nigga hit me, I say new body who this".
Relationship content & gurus continue to be a thing because it gains views and attention no matter how recycled the topic is. Cardi B. recently stated her opinion on the 50/50 topic and people got worked up again. I can even say as a smaller creator that the “somebody's son” views are much higher and receive more engagement than my other content. Although I'm over relationship topics it sells and views don't lie.
People like negativity. The ShadeRoom, Zeus network, and 90% of these podcasts are prime examples. I wish podcasts like Nice & Neat (highly recommend) went viral.
I like Saweetie as a rapper. She makes music for pretty girls hence "Pretty Bitch Music". She also makes you feel luxurious and like a rich bitch. She encourages you to date a man with money, but always be a get money female too. She never proclaimed to be a lyricist and her music doesn't promote violence or too much emphasis on sex. People say they want to hear something different and her music is different, but then again maybe her music is for pretty girls only.
Cheating is a rich man's sport and they already know they have to pay to play. A lot of side bitches aren’t in for love, they’re in for gifts, trips, getting their bills paid, etc.
He’s not wrong for cheating if you continue to avoid sex without valid reasons. There’s more to a relationship than sex, but that’s one of the main perks of being in a monogamous relationship or marriage. Personally, I'm not a cheater but one of my last straws in a relationship is lack of sex.
If he continues to cheat and you stay especially after acknowledging his indiscretions you're in an open relationship/marriage.
Threesomes, open relationships/marriages, and polygamy doesn’t equate to cheating. Cheating is doing something without your partner's consent or acknowledgement. Being aware of outside people and agreeing to the terms and conditions isn’t cheating, you’re a willing participant. However, I've yet to see a healthy relationship that has more than 2 parties involved.
I want to be vegan but seafood and cheese has me in a chokehold.
Women believe everything men say until he says abort the baby, and this may sound insensitive but unless you want to be a single mother… abort the baby.
I don't care for apologies. Constantly saying sorry but continuing to do the same shit will forever annoy me. Change your behavior so I know it’s real.
Diddy & Caresha was fun at first but I was over them long before the lawsuits hit, it was getting cringy. It's also interesting how everybody who comes in contact with him doesn't have a substantial career.
I want JT to take her solo career seriously. I know some people don't like her attitude, but after watching her interview with Angie Martinez I developed a different viewpoint of her. They could never make me hate her.
Having a cult following is frowned upon but social media users are fickle and cancel culture is real. It’s ideal to develop a following that’ll never switch up on you. One reason why Nicki continues to survive the hate train is because she has a cult following, and yes I’m a barb for life.
I don’t want to be a stripper but I feel at home when I’m at the strip club. It’s a fun vibe, especially if you go with your man.
It’s better to be with somebody cause you want to be vs. cause you need to be. A lot of friendships or romantic relationships thrive due to one party being in survival mode and once they no longer need that person the relationship fades out.
The prison wife side of TikTok is intriguing.
I often wonder if there’s something I could’ve done differently to avoid the demise of a 20 year friendship, and although she did some questionable things I miss her at times, but I know everything happens for a reason, and holding onto people does more harm than good.
I love my family but their commentary from childhood to being a young adult has impacted me, and the impact becomes more evident as I stop needing their validation and create separation between who they wanted me to be versus who I want to be.
I need to address certain things in therapy and be okay with letting somebody see me cry. I purposely avoid certain topics because I don’t like being emotional.
I regret meeting the person I lost my virginity to and this is one of the issues I need to address in therapy.
I question my purpose in life but I know writing is my passion and a gift from God. One day my ability to put thoughts into words is going to make me a lot of money as well as have a positive impact on somebody’s life.
Although I wish things were different I’ve learned to live my life and choose happiness despite my health issues but I wonder if somebody’s son is cut out to deal with that. My stomach issues started when I was 22 so I'm true to the game, but will somebody’s son stick beside me on my worst day?
If I had one wish it would be to experience life without anxiety. I wonder how much further I’d be if anxiety wasn't a factor.
The messiest person you know is somebody’s son. Prime examples: DJ Akademik, the owner of Zeus network, and most men who own podcast equipment. Even Drake said back in 2013, that niggas talk more than bitches these days.
Men who embody Future behavior were once upon a Russell but they never bounced back from getting their feelings hurt.
Between heartbreak hotel and being tired of paying bills I get where the city girl mentality came from and I further more understand why some women stay when they should've left. It's not okay to let somebody's son treat you any kind of way, but sometimes financial stability matters more than other things.
A sabbatical plus a holistic journey in Bali is going to change the trajectory of my life.
Black people who claim they had money or lived a better life when Trump was in office scare me. A stimulus check and unemployment followed by inflation shouldn’t have made some people switch up on their people.
I want both, but if I had to pick I’d chose a man who has money and financially responsible over somebody that I love. I want the soft boss babe life more than I want to be a lover girl. Plus, money and resources is going to play a major role in my decision to procreate with somebody’s son. It may seem shallow, but stability matters more to me than love even though ideally I want both.
Ideally I want to be abstinence until I get married, but I'm probably going to fold the minute I get in a committed relationship.
I believe in lying to people who ask too many personal questions.
Nobody can twerk and throw ass like Meg The Stallion. That ass is memorizing.
I wish it was in me to be a serial dater and move on quickly. When my feelings get hurt it's hard for me to bounce back. Much respect to the girls who get their feelings hurt today and be back outside tomorrow.
I'm kind of interested in this boy who's been in my DMs saying I'm pretty lol.
Sometimes all you can do is go lay down.
Sex isn't better than love but sex with the person you love is everything.
I wouldn't be surprised if I marry somebody who's age qualifies him to be my sugar daddy. The older men (like 40+) be wanting them a pretty young thing, and I want a man who's already established and stable.
I want to do Youtube but that's another project for my 30's.
Savage Fenty has the best bras, thank me later.
I hate surprises and I have controlling tendencies which stems from the childhood incident.
I expect my next man to put his card on my phone. In the words of Big Kyla (Tiktok), my favorite fruit is apple pay.
Normalize telling yourself, "I did what I could and what I didn't do I'm sorry but now I'm moving on with my life." This statement brings me peace when I feel overwhelmed, over people, or over a situation.
I'm manifesting somebody's son is going to buy me the denim coach tabby shoulder bag 26 for my birthday. Cues Latto "To my man thank you to my man." My level of delusion is comical.
I don't take relationship advice from my homegirls, and I'm always confused when they ask me for advice because they already know my answer is to leave him sis lol. However, I love hearing the tea.
Bringing your man to a girl's only event, trip, or dinner is problematic especially if he's not paying the tab.
I want to host a theme tea party event real bad and if it goes well it'll be an annual event.
One of my numerous ideas for this brand is matching clothing sets.
I expect my husband to get my name tatted on him.
All I ever wanted is everything and I deserve it.
Once again this was fun and part 3 is dropping soon.
