Welcome to Ask Willie D, Rocks Off's advice column where the Geto Boys MC answers reader questions about matters, in his own words, "funny, serious or unpredictable." Something on your mind? Ask Willie D!
MY EX THREATENED TO POST NAKED PICTURES OF ME
Dear Willie D:
When my boyfriend was working out of town, I took some nude pictures of myself and sent them to him to help him get through the night -- if you know what I mean. Now that we are no longer dating, he's bitter and threatening to post the pictures all over social media, and send them to my dad's cellphone.
If he sends the pictures, I would be mortified beyond belief. Please tell me what to do to stop him, and get the pictures back?
Posing a Threat:
Since you sent him the pictures, he has a right to be in possession of them. What he doesn't have a right to do is harass you by posting the pictures on social media or sharing them with your dad. His threats are a classic case of "revenge porn," which is illegal in 13 U.S. states so far.
His threats can be viewed as blackmail. Contact the police, file a complaint and get a restraining order. You could also contact a lawyer to send him a stern letter demanding the pictures be destroyed and outline the consequences should he distribute them.
Looks like you had it right by dropping him. It's lames like that who mess up the game for the rest of us who count on those pictures to get through the night. What a loser!
THE ONE I CAN'T SEEM TO GET
Dear Willie D:
I have no problem with the ladies. I have always been able to get any woman I wanted. If she gave me five minutes of her time, she was mine. But the one I have never been able to get is the one I've spoken to for several hours. No matter what I say or do, she just won't take the bait.
To be honest, she's not the most attractive girl I can get in terms of looks. It's her elusiveness and the thrill of the chase that makes her so desirable. When I first set my sights on her it was a thing of conquest, but I've grown to appreciate her personality, and I want something more.
What's my next best move to sweep her off her feet, Mr. Clean up Man?
Something More:
Let me get this straight. You confess that you appreciate her personality, but earlier you said it's her elusiveness and the thrill of the chase that makes her so desirable. I think it's the latter, and something tells me she does too; that's why she's not taking the bait.
This one only wants to be friends, so take it like a man, brother, and move her into "The One That Got Away" file. If I am to take your word at face value, that would mean you went from a heartless Lothario to the type of dude who will pick up a bruised apple inside the corner store and say, "Who did this to you!" Not a good look, bro. You're losing it.
