Hey guys, I'm Tripp. Welcome to my new RU-vid channel. Make sure you like, comment, share and SUBSCRIBE! IG: @iamtrippali Twitter: @iamtrippali Snapchat: @Tripptlmg Facebook: @TrippAli
I feel like he took advantage of you he had an inkling of your preference and he was curious this probably isn't the first time he did this to someone he's not a friend at all and he deserved those hands you didnt out him you did the right thing
@@TripperPlugged my ex from highschool was bi-we both were, so it was our secret.He used to throw women in my face too. Narcissistic af. I commend you for being open like this. I'm interested to hear your thoughts about Lil Nas X and Industry Baby? I'm so tired of straight mysogyny everywhere.☹️
He was trying so hard to assure his masculinity, he didn’t have enought confidence to be him self. Poor dude probably he is never going to do the things he really wants
Messing around with a dl guy is always a bad idea just leave them alone there are more trouble than they are worth and nothing good can come from them but good story trip I hope some of us learn from your experience
I just 'discovered' your videos and I'm struck by your honesty and your emotional maturity! I'm from an older generation and honest such as yours was rare and far between. In my day, 'roles' were clearly defined; being gay, or as we used to call it, being in the life, could be seriously problematic, and sometimes potentially hostile and violent. I've witnessed such dramatic progress over the decades, over the eras! It's so refreshing to watch you a live and speak in your truth! You have a lot of wisdom for someone so young but then again, wisdom can be colorless and ageless! I've shared your videos with my inner circle and you've now become a favorite! Where were guys like you when I was out there? I’ve written tons of poems about being gay back then and now. I agree with the way you handled the situation! DL dudes can often seem so attractive but not always fully developed mentally or emotionally! The fact that he started flirting with your cousin right in front of you tell you a whole lot about the kind of person he was; there was no respect in his action! He was probably feeling 'queasy' because he enjoyed what transpired between you two and sought her out to 'reaffirm' his alleged 'straight' status! He showed you who he really was and like Maya Angelou said, you believed him! Good for you! And you are absolutely right about crossing certain lines; most of those lines are one way and provide no way back to what was once crossed! I suspect a lot of relationships have be damaged and ruined by not respecting those uncrossable lines! I will continue to watch your videos and your progress! Be well and stay safe!
Lol. That's cus 'trade' doesn't know how to operate w a dude like Trip. He goes against all of their ideas of 'gay', so they don't know how to make sense of it and just let it be what it is. If a gay dude isn't obviously 'the girl', it fuks trades heads up. Smh
@DJ smoky Smoky yea, unfortunately a lot of dudes are so caught up with emulating hetero, male/female 'roles' that their fragile ass masculinity feels challenged when interacting with another masculine guy. And fem dudes often aren't any better, because they want to be princesses rescued by their masculine princes. Gays take 1 step forward and 2 steps back smh...
Bro. You are very engaging with your stories. The titles pull us in, but your craft on how you tell them, words to use is remarkable, and keep us engage to the end. That is not a easy thing to do, and it seems like you do it so effortless. Your gift will make room for you. I hope it takes you where you reach your full potential .
Yes the DL guy was insecure in his sexuality and wanted to prove to everyone on the Block that he was not on that gay ish lol including your cousin. So sad. Great story.
Hey Tripp. You right. At times it's best to keep things on a friend level with someone instead of trying to take it further. I appreciate your insight on that. Much needed truth there!! I do feel like he was going to use your cousin as a cover up. I'm glad you did what you did!
You protected your cousin feelings and kept your DL friend secret. Sometimes you must speak up for what is right. Never know that this Dl dude could of mess around if he was with your cousin. He was quick to pull out his pickle he done this before with other dudes he just put on a front and he prob still doing it.
Hope all is well! You handled it the best way possible, as you were put in a weird position. It's just a respect thing. The blatant disrespect was it for me. You don't go one from relative to another, especially if the dude knows y'all are related. Level-headed thinking tbh haha.
Thank u 😊 for another good story time. Keep on being true to yourself and revealing to your cus, u handle the situation perfectly. As the saying goes, don’t mix business with pleasure. Keep on bringing us more story time. Social Distancing is in Vogue.
i related to this story 100%! it brought back memories of a similiar situation i went through. when u started laughing when u said he stood her up,i lost it!lol
Cus, thank u 🙏 for the love ❤️ that I send my way. U inspire me in your storytelling. I do a support group for gay men over 50, I take cues from your episodes. I really do appreciate u for the person that u are. A good role model for the black gay community, good luck 🍀 to you and the growth of your channel❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hey Tripp peace and love young brutha. You handled it right like a man ought. My hat goes off to you. I would have handled it the same way. You're a bright brutha and a honest one. Stay strong and don't change. You're a good man Tripp. 👍🏾
Yo Cuz you ain't never lying. Been there done that. You did the right thing. Had that happen to me a few times and I never said anything even to this day
You handled that with the utmost dignity. You can not and should not go through a person's family. That could have had repercussions somewhere down the road. RESPECT is a thin line and your associate crossed that line!
david taylor thank you so much cousin. Yours always showing love. I’m gonna use the donation to work on some merch. You don’t know how much I appreciate you
when he said the guy was laying on the bed and he went over and started undoing his pants I just let out the biggest holla because that was hot. i could not take my eyes off of his lips and imagine that was me
@@marrbaby1 he really do i just imagine him doing that to me and he said that came really quick which means the guy was really horny or he is very good at what he do.
I love how you are yourself 100% of the time no matter who drives to put you in a box you refuse to be anything less than your 100% true I've lived my life the same way however we have very different results I've been alone for 25 years and finding you on the internet is the best thing that's happened to me in my whole life keep being 100 I love you bro keep doing you
Hey Tripper - Always intended to leave a message - but with all this time at home now, this is a good time as any. You still have those qualities that are hard to come by these days - the sincerity, the principles, the values. You did the right thing dude - through and through. Opportunities do present themselves, and what do you do? - you didnt know that you friend does not have the same values as you. So in this respect, you did the right thing as he will go out with your cousin, and still want to mess with you. When passing by London, do hola me. Loads of respect.
I was worried with how this video was going to pan out. You are a good story teller. Thanks for sharing. I just sent this video over to my 1st cousin who is my bestie and I told her to watch it and give me her feedback. I would have done the same thing you did. I would have approached him and said not to take my cousin out. Keep the video coming. I enjoyed. xoxo New Follower. Mac from Chicago
Hey brutha- good story. Think you handled the situation correctly...kept it from getting messy and going left real fast! Sorry that your boy got funky. smh
I know I said it before on another video of yours but for real man you are so real and I can relate to almost every story you tell. Your actions are so much like mine and even the situations you been through that I haven't been through I would of done the same thing you did. We are so alike. I hope one day I meet someone just like you because that person would be the one for me for life. Also, just like you I would never get plugged but I am down for everything else... which is just like you seem to be...LOL: Amazing LOL Continue to live your life carefully Tripp and please by all means be safe and please keep them videos coming.
Very true statement. Never let your right hand do what your left hand is doing. I probably would have done the same thing. People have ulterior motives, just have to be careful. Cousin. Shut it down cousin, shut it down!!!
I really enjoyed this story time, Tripper Plugged. ♥️ I was in a similar situation with a fellow athlete that I played football with back in high school. We also use to sing together in the talent shows every year and we were well respected by our student body because of our talent. He would come over to my house, eat the breakfast my grandmother would cook and chill in my room and write music and check out other songs we enjoyed. He would always talk about girls and make little comments here and there about my sister (she was already dating some dude) and he knew that. lol I told him that I was into guys and my reasons for that was make him chill with his obsession with conversations about girls and sex. I didn’t mind supporting him when it came to his little school house crushes but my sister was off limits. lol One day while he was chillin at my house he asked me about my sexuality and was like, “you are a damn good running back, you can sing hella good, you’re buff as f***, and you’re very good looking... why are you gay?” lol I answered back saying, “it is what it is” and laughed. lol He then asked me, “if I liked him,” I said, “you’re a very attractive guy but we are friends and I respect our friendship” he said, “that’s what’s up!” He then said if I took my d*** out would you s*** it? I was like, “I don’t know! I don’t just sit around thinking about stuff like that. You’re my friend, I don’t want it to be awkward between us after doing that.” He was very adamant about me doing this with him, so we did! Things got awkward as I knew it would, he didn’t come around much afterwards and we still had to play football together. We still sang in the talent shows because it was tradition. He tried to make a comeback when I got a car but I was over it by then. I moved on and got some new friends. lol The lesson was learned! lol 😁💯 Who knows where he is now?🤷🏽♂️ I went on to college, was very successful there and moved on with my life. It’s Love All Day, Tripper Plugged! ♥️💯♥️💯
PREACH Cuz, as a gay man myself dealing with these D.L. guys once they be intimate with you they have to regain their masculinity. And by coming on to your cousin he was sending you a message that he would not be with you.
We ALL need to stay in OUR lane, n there are lines we SHOULDN'T cross. Take my hat off to you, bc you did the right thing(somethings we just don't share). Great move
Man, so intriguing and so true...I'm feeling how it was handled. Dude actually cross the line in my opinion. Clearly he had some hidden same sex emotions and used it on you. Something inside of him clicked with you and he took advantage of it. He knew exactly what he was doing. You did good because you understood those feelings he have can destroy innocent people like your cousin because they will rise up again...and they would have with another dude..
I think you handled it right. He was interested in you and not that you took the bait, but what happened was the natural order of things. He was afraid of himself and using your cousin as a shield. Besides, you wouldn't want to find out later he's doing her dirty cheating with another woman and much less a dude.
Well, I don't do DL men. My men are Out and Proud. I've come to realize your life experiences are teaching situations for the majorities who are in their teens, 20s, and 30s of which I can appreciate. For that Sir, I thank you!
The hold time Im just sitting here and imagining the hold thing from being to the end and all I can say I wow that was hot ass hell but good looking out for your cousin man
Definitely respectable. I would have done the same... You are definitely a man of integrity. You shouldn't have any regrets...unfortunately sometimes, situations like that allow you to see people for who they really are.... Its better that you know now, than if you found out sometime in the future where the situation could've been much worse. As far as crossing those lines, I think you right to a certain extent. its all about establishing a persons character...and that only comes by wisdom. I like your storytimes man...they are very informative
After you've taken the bait, all you can do is clean up the damage...You did what you had to do, case closed! He showed his low character when he decided to hit on relatives. Really, he was going to F**K with both cousins. In my family he would have gotten his ass beat down (for sure)!
You really have to get your book out nobody else has a life like yoursI have been watching your videos for a long time and I believe all of them and it is amazing to me the adventures you have had so far in your life
My favourite favourite cousin. Much tespect and love to you and for you . So much hobesty coming thru. You handled it correctly. Side note tose thick lips man got me hooked for real. Love All Day Every Day
I think you handled the situation the right way bro. These DL dudes are way too bold. Number one, he was all in your business questioning you- that drives me nuts. He must have felt he was going to lose his manhood if he didn't try to pull a girl fast. 🙄 They say blood is thicker than water; I personally don't believe that but you were loyal to your cousin and I respect you for protecting her. 👍🏽 Homeboy needs to learn some respect. Are you ever gonna tell her what really happened?
Tripp, you are really good at these story times. Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing your life stories with your Cousins! #YouRock #Salute 💯
@@TripperPlugged Thanks for Stopping by? I clicked on the "All" choice bell notification so I wouldn't miss anything. I watch and comment on most of the lives and videos. #IGotTheBoxResponse 😂 😂 😂
Violence is not the answer. There are peaceful ways to handle difficulties. He was your friend. You actually wanted to hurt your friend ? Is that true friendship ?
That’s exactly why I don’t date dl guys all the secrets and the mess I’m not for it but I wouldn’t mind being friends with one but one of my rules is I don’t mess around with my friends periodT
I agree it gets very awkward! I like the masculinity more than anything but the dynamic will never be what I want.... soooo just masculine GAY men...... all I can say is BE YOU!
Great story cousin like that had happened to me before with this gut that I was cool with around my hood and like we messed around one time and he was trying to get at my cousin too and out of respect for my cousin I had to let her know that he not into you and he got baggage cuz I didn’t want my cousin to be hurt or get played.
Tripp man u was right, he was wrong. The flirting was kool but he crossed the line. I feel u did the right thing out of protecting your cousin. Sometimes we really have to keep friends just as friends. The relationship sometimes changes after u cross the line but man u was all the way right. U a kool ass dude & I like how u handle shit
I am a Muslim woman from Philadelphia i stumbled across ya page 3 day’s ago & ive been obsessed since. U handled the situation a lot better than me. I would have told my cuzzin 😫
Tripp, very interesting story. I think you did the right thing by intercepting that play. Too many DL men are reckless and just don’t care who they hurt in the process.
Trip you definitely handled that correctly..... and for him to think that talking to your cousin was okay let's you know that he had his own set of problems !
Man I applaud you! I would have done the identical same thing! I have a friend watched his sister marry a guy he messed around with for 2 years! Nope I couldn't have done it! Bravo Bro❣ 🤜🏿🤛🏿
sex act no! he knew all the time when he was coming over what he want to due. when the pants came down he was up and ready.thats sad when people have to play games with their life.
You did what was right for you and her because had he gone out with her, he would be lying anyway. I probably would have done the same thing too had it went that far which is why you just have to be careful people are cappal of anything now days
He must have known about you from around the way or had a feeling about you. Doesn’t seem like it was his first time at all. That’s how these dudes do. I woulda told my fam immediately. Lol. He wouldn’t have made it out the room. My ass woulda been texting and all kinda shit. He dirty tho, playing all in the fam.
sheldon berry lol from around the way? I wasn’t a known gay nigga in the hood I was know for rapping and fighting. He suspected things about me from being at my house a lot and never seeing me with a girl or me never speaking about girls
I feel you did the right thing, I also feel that you shouldn't reget anyhing you do in life. In saying that it was a lesson for you to learn. In life we're always being tested.
@@TripperPlugged I get that part but, look at it in this way. Now you see who you where truly dealing with, people will show there true colors when in a time of compromise.
You didn’t do anything wrong. He came on to you. He knew exactly what he was doing. He is a real prick for trying to date your cousin. He knew he was wrong, that is why he didn’t show up at the house once you talked to him. With all the women in the city, why does he have to date your cousin, especially knowing that he is DL. The problem is his, not yours. I really appreciate the way you tell stories. I wish I had a friend like you. You have a good spirit.
He already knew and was attracted to you!!! I know this story all to well he probably wouldn’t have done anything with her and and continued to deal with you... but he needed to tell himself that he was straight... you did the right thing I would have made him cancel the date with her though.
WoW cousin, I know that was a hard experience. People can say alot of things in hindsight about what they would do I understand that your family and intergrity kicked in. Homie didn't show respect from the start. If he was that one that was worthy he wouldn't have tested you he would have just excepted you. I have learned that people have different positions in our lives and their are very few that can handle the deepest part of you. I feel you did the right thing even if he did it with you that time because of how you felt and your peace. That showed how deeply he cared for you!!! People want the gift or the good time but not the giver. He enjoyed the good time but unfortunately didn't really have you at heart. He missed out,his loss was greater but you leared,. Thanks for teaching us!!!
Whats up Cuzzie!! That was a rough situation and I listen to what your was saying particularly when you said that your cousin new what your were into. So I would have used that to my advantage and I would have told him if he did not back off that I would tell my cousin what we did, who knows what I'm into. That would have stop all that other smack he was saying, trust me he would have thought twice, or maybe not it could went either way. I learned in situations like this nothings good comes out of it but broken friendships. Just my humble opinion. ❤ & ✌ Cuzz!!!
Yo I feel you bruh it ain’t got nothing to do about what we did but you gone get at my flesh and blood in my face and I’ve been through telling my homie about me that’s a dude then they turn it around on you
rodentcafeteria I would’ve have cared at all. My family do what they want to do and I don’t judge I’m just their if they need me. I’m everyone’s favorite cousin in real life
Great question. Now, if it was me, I've been through this a couple of times. If we do 'anything', my family members are off limits. If we've never done anything that is on you and my family member.
Cuz, this goes down on the regular. I went through the same situation several times. One situation was a coworker and he'll catch a ride with me time from time. We'll smoke and talk as y'all did. A messy queen outed me out to him so asked me one day on the way home. He couldn't believe it and asked me several questions including why I'm into dudes. After the talk, we remain cool and the queen became even more bitter. We didn't cross the line. I've would have done the same if a dude was trying to talk to a relative.
