Devin the Dude recently took over the Sohh Houston blog ,and he posted an interesting post the other day. The post touched on how to know if she's wifey material, I know nowadays people can't really tell.

According to Devin the Dude,

"How To Know if She's Wifey Material, by Devin the Dude




There's no fool-proof way of finding the perfect woman to become your wife but here are few ways of knowing if she isn't.

1. If she comes home from a night out with the girls with her thong on backwards -- save the ring money.

2. If she demands outsied attention by any means, like giving you lap dances while looking at your homeboys -- don't take her home to mamma.

3. While out at a club, on a date, if she excuses herself four or more times to use the lady's room, without drinkink much, you might not be the only guy on her mind. Her cellphone call log will prove it, but don't check it. WHY HURT YOURSELF!?

4. If you open the door for her and then before you get to the driver-side door, she locks your door and starta laughing loudly, trade the limo & tux money for a new transmission.

5. If she doesn't moan, groan, say your name or even flinch while having sex with her, avoid thinking about who's going to be the best man (only she knows)!

6. While out on the town with your lady and a car with four guys in it points at her and start to laugh out off control. Then she says, "That's my cousinem.'" -- the best man just might be in that car!

7. You and your girlfriend are out walking, hand-in-hand, and then a group of fine-ass bitches
approach you. You then quickly shake loose your girlfriend's hand as if you were just friends. The fine-ass bitches pass as you try to reach for your girlfriend's hand again. If she refuse to grab your hand ...

She's not the one. (Just Kiddin!)

There's no such thing as the perfect person, but if you can find someone to love, there's no better feeling. I have a wifey and she's beautiful. There will be bumps and curves throughout your journey with marriage but it's all well worth it.


Much Love
