@CowperKettle Is she your girlfriend? =)
@CowperKettle I sometimes eat more, not because of the meds, but you just feel like eating more when you are in a bad mood. It's called comfort food.
youtu.be/wwF_2xksnOE?t=1m16s Does he sing "I don't let the deal go down" or "I done let the deal go down"? The song is about his girlfriend/wife not letting him in because he came home late (repeatedly perhaps), so he moves into the dog house, from what I've gathered. What does the quoted line mean? Is it just like a filler verse, "I won't let go"; "I'm not giving up"? I don't know what deal he's talking about. That he's moving into the kennel?
@userr2684291 Checking google confirms that it is I done let the deal go down, which also appears to be what we hear in the video.

I checked Google but wasn't sure if the lyrics there are accurate, because sometimes they aren't.
Yes, very often lyrics posted online are not accurate, and very often lyrics sung even in recordings are not accurate.
In this case, it does seem to be what we suspect, and as to the exact meaning of the line, even when I read the line in context, I am lost. It can mean so many things. But it is not usual formal English.
@JasperLoy No, just a friend.
@JasperLoy I think it's non-standard English, with done being simply a way of emphasizing completeness or such.
@CowperKettle By the way, good luck with your meds. I am not really sure if they work for me, so today I went to see the doc and told him I prob won't take them again. I have been off meds for a couple of months now.
@userr2684291 Yes, it can mean I am done with letting the deal go down or I am done and just let the deal go down or something else. But it might actually have a standard meaning in some nonstandard variety of English somewhere in the world. Maybe someone on SE might shed light on this.
By the way, I just bought a new laptop last week. It is an Acer Swift 3 with 256GB PCIe SSD, 8GB memory, and i5-8250U processor. It works well, but doesn't have an optical disc drive or ethernet port, but that can be solved by getting some accessories.

Great.

@JasperLoy She hinted that she wants to have relationships, but I'm unsure, very unsure. She is 12 years younger than me. I love taking photos of my women friends.
@JasperLoy Nice choice! I bought a Dell based on a 8550u CPU
Just several days ago.
I only use the optical drive maybe once in several months.
SSD is great, I will add an SSD later
@CowperKettle Do you have the model number? Is it an Inspiron 3576?
@CowperKettle Age is just a number. As long as two people love each other, it is enough. The French president's wife is 24 years older than him.

Strange enough, the American president's wife is 24 years younger than him. And these two pairs met.
Age gap wll always make things harder, and I'm too stupid even for an even-age relationship.

@userr2684291 That's completive done (Southern vernacular AmE). It indicates completion, but secondary to that it can add some emotional intensity (what's done can no longer be changed, unfortunately).

I see. But yeah, I've heard it lots in movies and such, and it can be heard in AAVE, I believe (which probably originally took it from the Southern dialects).

@userr2684291 Yeah, it's definitely part of AAVE as well.
