Love your enemies and hate your friends.

I don't think I have any friends. The people who I considered friends, I call them brothers, sisters, nephews or nieces relative to their age to me. Regardless of the fact I am an only child, some people of the years have gotten close to me like family. However, there are people who on the front of a friend or "fam" we like to say at times and lull you into a relaxed state of unwarranted trust for them. I think I may have done that at least 4 people in my short time as AASA President. Darnesha is Darnesha, young and the all eyes on my mentality but I guess forgivable due to her age. However, I think her comfort with me is elevated becuase she likes me. Not to be arrogant, but last year she went to give me a hug and kissed my neck in the process. It was an accident, her tongue got a couple of rotations in that moment. lol. I know right, I should have moved right away but thats a weak point for me. But I did move as quickly as possible. Anyway, the other strange part is that her best friend has been putting her best foot forward trying to have sex with me. Keep in mind he boyfriend is on the basketball team and I see this cat everyday. One day she showed up and my place unannounced started making her move and taking off her clothes. Honestly, she has a nice body but this was definetly look and don't touch moment. I don't need that type of drama in my life. My every move is scrutinized and getting caught up like that does not relfect who I am as a child of God. I've already had my slip up(s) for the semester with one person, lets not make this a multiple thing. Secondly, Jamar is well Jamar. A loud mouth guy who definetly suffers from a Napolean complex. At one point I thought he and I were beyond cool but at times get the vibes of jealousy and back stabbing ready to take place. I'm trying not to sound paranoid but I do have this weird sixth sense about things going foul. However, that feeling doesn't compare to the one I have been having with Mrs. Rochelle. There was definetly a strong mother/son and teacher/student bond there at one point but something is not right. I can feel it and I'm trying to figure out is the the Holy Spirit telling me to be aware of people around me or a lack of confidence of the people around me. You know me, I'd would put the whole thing on my back but I don't have the time and I believe in team. For these reasons, I say love your enemies. They don't change. You know where they stand and jealousy, arrogance, lust do not become part of their equation. Your friends and I use the term loosely, shift like the windy nights in Chicago. However, I am remaining true to the mission at hand and try not to get to personal with anyone else this year. Pray for me. Peace.
