Edugaytion 101: Deception
Well, well, this is no shocker. The stylish older gentleman, Irvin Randle, also known as "Mr. Steal Your Grandma", who had women of all ages falling in love, may possibly play both sides. This past Thursday, a man named Ahmad Booth, took to his Instagram and flashed a "Throwback Thursday" montage of him and Mr. Randle in some rather compromising situations. I side-eyed the whole back down memory lane theory because I know how all this played out. This was shade at it's finest. And, I understand that some people may say, why did he do that. He's a trifling queen for outing him. The pictures must be Photoshopped, etc. etc. I personally took the time to investigate Mr. Booth's Instagram and have seen Irvin Randle in several other pictures with him. Here is where the confusion comes into play because back when Mr. Randle became the hottest internet sensation, he took to Instagram and left a lengthy message stating:
This topic is one very personal to me because I, too, have dated many guys like Mr. Randle. Guys who are very attractive, masculine, and career driven. In some instances, I've found out that several of the guys I've met and dated were either Pastors or Ministers. They are more than likely married or in relationships with women. These men don't see themselves as gay men. Hell, they don't even see themselves as bisexual men. And God forbid, they are black men, they will forever say that they are straight. This is just the way that it is. So, I can see why Mr. Randle posted that message on Instagram when he first gained attention. He has the same mentality as the men I've met.
There have been several moments when I have wanted to put people on blast for playing with my time and not being true about the relationship that we've had. There is nothing more disrespectful than finding out that the person you are in love with has denounced even being with you. Ahmad Booth probably got fed up because now Mr. Randle is playing the role of heterosexual male. He probably had to sneak around in order to spend time with him. And it probably ultimately ended with Mr. Steal Your Grandma, saying, " Look, I'm not gay, we can't see each other anymore." Cause, they will pop that line on you in a minute. Now don't get me wrong I don't doubt that Irvin Randle is not into women. He is an attractive man and it's apparent that he's not openly gay, so I know that there may indeed be several women in his life. Things like this happen when a person plays with another person's emotions. People like to overlook those old saying like, "what's done in the dark comes to the light". What is your take on the whole situation? Was the young man wrong for sharing the pics? Should Mr. Randle just stand up and live in his own truth? Tell me what you think.
