Don’t Bring Your Wife Around Me
Posted by Trey in Everything Else on August 28, 2009
This question come Chad in Las Vegas. He writes,
QUESTION: I hate you. Why? Because my wife is absolutely obsessed with your advice column, and reads it at least 3 times a day. Actually, it would be bad enough if she was just obsessed with your column, but she’s obsessed with you too. For example, we were at the Supermarket yesterday and she asked, “What do you think Trey eats for breakfast?” Enough is enough. So it looks like I have two options: Either I divorce my crazy wife unless she stops reading your column, or I hop on the next flight to Los Angeles to beat the sh*t out of you. Care to provide me with some advice for my problem, Jackass? Read the rest of this entry »
His Poke-Her Face
Posted by Trey in Relationships, Dating, and Booty Calls on August 28, 2009
This question comes from Vanessa in Washington, DC. She writes,
QUESTION: First off, I can’t believe that I’m writing in to an advice column, but here goes. I’ve been dating a beautiful man for a few weeks now, and last night we had sex for the first time. It was pretty good, except for the end. When he came, he had the ugliest look on his face. Seriously, he looked (and sounded) like a retarded gorilla on crack. It was the biggest turn-off ever, and I haven’t called him since. What should I do? He’s a very good-looking guy, but all I can see in my head is that face he made. Read the rest of this entry »
The Double Down
Posted by Trey in Random Thoughts on August 28, 2009
TREY SAY: Have any of you seen this? KFC is offering a “revolutionary” new sandwich called the “Double 
Down.” What makes it so revolutionary is the fact that it has two fried chicken patties instead of breaded buns. Yikes. Read the rest of this entry »
You’re Smart…for a Black Guy
Posted by Trey in A Dish Best Served Cold on August 21, 2009
This question comes from Greg in Seattle. He writes,
QUESTION: I’m a black man, and I’ve been working at a well-known and well-respected company for about five years now. Anyway, I was the Project Manager for a large corporate product launch that lasted about four months, and I worked very closely with a big-wig executive from Paris (I’ll call him “Pepe”) over the phone. When I finally met Pepe in person last week after the product launched, he said (in his French accent): “So YOU are Greg? This must be a joke! You are too smart to be black!” He laughed, and then walked away. I didn’t bother going to Human Resources with my issue, because I know that they’d just ignore me. So now I’m coming to the only person that can help me: you. What should I do to get this guy back? I heard rumors that he’s looking to move to my city and work out of our office soon. I can’t have that! Read the rest of this entry »
Things not to do Alone
Posted by Trey in Everything Else on August 21, 2009
This question comes from Emily in Los Angeles. She writes,
QUESTION: Last weekend I went clubbing with two of my girlfriends in Vegas. Around 2am my friends got tired and went up to the room. The music was bumpin’, so I decided to stay and get my groove on. About 15 minutes later, I was approached by this beautiful man. We had a great time dancing and enjoying each others’ company. As we left the dance floor and headed to the bar, his friend caught up with him and whispered in his ear (loud enough for me to overhear), “is she a prostitute?” I was shocked, and a little offended.
Why is it cool for a man to be at a club by himself , but when a woman is at a club by herself she is perceived to be a prostitute? And, is there something that I should do in the future to turn-down my personality so I don’t come-off like a prostitute? Read the rest of this entry »
Cheatin’ on the Job
Posted by Trey in Relationships, Dating, and Booty Calls on August 21, 2009
This question comes from Danny in NYC. He writes,
QUESTION: I found out that my girl was cheating on me with this cat that she works with. I’ve seen this dude before – he’s a punk and I could kick his ass in my sleep so I’m thinking about going to their office on Monday to mess him up. What do you think? Read the rest of this entry »
Chubby Checkin’
Posted by Trey in Relationships, Dating, and Booty Calls on August 18, 2009
This question comes from Pete in Burbank, CA. He writes,
QUESTION: I’ve been dating this girl for about 3 years now, and when we met she was hot. Great body, very athletic, etc. But for some reason, in the past six months she’s put on some pounds – like 30 of them, and she’s only 5’4. She stopped going to Gym, and basically sits around all day playing on Twitter and watching crappy Reality Television (sorry man, I know that you have friends that are “Reality Stars” but I hate that sh*t). Anyhow, I don’t find myself attracted to her anymore and I don’t know what I should do. Read the rest of this entry »

Posted by Trey in Random Thoughts on August 16, 2009
TREY SAY: As we all know by now, Mike Vick is going to resume his NFL career by playing for the Philadelphia

The Office BBQ
Posted by Trey in Relationships, Dating, and Booty Calls on August 14, 2009
This question comes from Steve in LA. He writes,
QUESTION: My office had a barbeque last weekend and we were allowed to bring our loved ones. Since I’m a 25 year-old single guy, I figured that I would roll solo to the event. Anyway, this dude who works in Tech Support brought his girlfriend, and damn she is smoking hot. So here’s the problem – this girl was flirting with me big-time and at the end of the night she said that she’s not really into her man and said we should get together – and then proceeded to slip me her cell number. Man, this girl is so hot and I’ve been tempted to call her all week. What should I do? Read the rest of this entry »

This question comes from Raquel in Boston. She writes,
QUESTION: I don’t know what’s going on, but lately I’ve been dealing with this really creepy guy that has been bothering me. Should I be scared for my safety? Read the rest of this entry »
Trey’s Hate Mail
Posted by Trey in Random Thoughts on August 14, 2009
TREY SAY: I wish I could say that all I get is mail of the positive variety, but every now and then I get hate letters. For example, this vitriolic letter comes from Jackie in Los Angeles. She writes,
Two Girls, One Night
Posted by Trey in Relationships, Dating, and Booty Calls on August 6, 2009
The next question comes from Danny in Santa Monica. He writes,
QUESTION: I have a slight dilemma. I have two dates on Saturday night: one girl is an old flame from college that I’ve recently regained contact with, and the other is a super-hot chick I met at a bar a couple of weeks ago (she claims to be a actress/model). How am I going to pull this one off? Read the rest of this entry »
Fine Wine
Posted by Trey in Everything Else on August 6, 2009
This question comes from Derek in San Mateo, CA. He writes,
QUESTION: I’m struggling to figure out what I should get my friend for his birthday. He’s a worldly, articulate guy and has expensive tastes. I was thinking that taking him wine-tasting would be a great gift, but do you have any other suggestions?
By the way, we are NOT gay…we just like to drink wine. Read the rest of this entry »
Big Sale
Posted by Trey in Everything Else on August 6, 2009
This question from Sally in Denver. She writes,
QUESTION: I’ve been working as a Sales Consultant for 6 years, and a couple of weeks ago there was an opening for a Sales Manager in my company that I thought I’d get for sure. Anyway, John (the Branch Manager) ended up offering the job to this woman that’s been with the company for less than a year. Sure she’s good-looking, and I’m slightly overweight - but I’ve given 6 years of my life to this company! I’m pretty pissed off about it. Pissed off enough to write in to your silly advice column. What should I do? Read the rest of this entry »
Food Chain
Posted by Trey in Relationships, Dating, and Booty Calls on August 2, 2009
This question comes from Ann in Santa Monica, CA. She writes,
QUESTION: My boyfriend is an overall great guy, but I have a big problem with him: For some reason, he will only take me out to chain restaurants (Macaroni Grill, Olive Garden, etc). It’s really making me unhappy, and I want him to take me out to nicer restaurants. What’s his problem? Read the rest of this entry »
