Have my cake and eat it too?!
Answers: What does that mean? WTF else am I going to do with a cake?
Agreed! What's the point of having cake if you can't eat it?

It's just a figure of speech.
Have one's cake and eat it, too (sometimes eat one's cake and have it too) is to want more than one can handle or deserve, or to try to have two incompatible things. This is a popular English idiomatic proverb, or figure of speech.
For example:
Say you have a friend (opposite sex) who is your "best friend" and you want the relationship to be more than that. However, you know that your friend just wants to be friends (nothing more) and pursing it further would mean losing the friendship altogether....
You can't have your cake and eat it too...
Your friendship is the "cake" but pursing it knowing that you could lose the friendship altogether would be "eating it too"
It's just an expression.
I thought 'having' it wasn't.. having = eating?
Maybe physically holding and having?
So you can't physically have/hold it after it's eaten..
Another thing you can do with cake is look at it. You can also smell it. And touch it.
