weve gotten so superficial, it's crazy, no one focuses on love anymore in a relationship it's all about what u got, material things, good credit, house, car, never mind he's working and he treats you right and he loves you but if he doesn't have those material things some sistas won't give em a chance. It's sad and disgusting!

since when do white males need some damn help they run this countrys senate and house and most major companies in all areas. Also the last time I checked 9 times out of 10 they compete against each other for most jobs that they already have. Where the hell you been mars, jupiter, pluto.

@MsSooRandom (continued) Don't just jump for the next dude because he looks the part but refuses to act on it. Once you've set up your reasonable standards and picked out the real deal breakers in a relationship then you should take the steps to follow through about what you preach. Don't demand and then not hold yourself to those same rules. I'm a believer in showing people how you want to be treated! #JustMyOpinion

Everyone is talking but no one is listening! I get that women have to kiss a couple frogs in order to get to her prince charming. But let's be honest, we need to take ourselves more seriously when we're dating. Don't just lower your standards because you want to date a black man. Have reasonable standards that will allow you to know what you can tolerate and what you won't accept in relationships. Hold the man that you're with responsible for his actions and do the same with yourself!

@conqueror2001 "this "I'm independent crap that BW proud to proclam to BM is making them look bad "

LOL White women are the owners of female independence. There is also nothing wrong w being someone that doesnt depend on a man. Men tend to disappoint when you expect from them.

I am so glad i am African..born in Africa..raised in Africa. Because all this bullshit black americans have is tooo weird. I think black man need to look at the African men as role models i just have to say i never will hear them call a black lady bitch, hoe..ugly... they want an education and will get that education.

@loujencece

You're one of the angry black men that do your race a disservice.

[Sheall323]

@loujencece You are right about that. It took many years after slavery to get the black man back into the role of protector and provider of the family. Our men wanted everything the white man had...even his woman and the black woman has felt like the door mat. I thank God when our men wake up and know the lie that has been perpetuated and come at a black woman righteously. She is your queen.

@Mikemallow2007 I'm Career Army have been so for 15 years I've always taken responsibility for my actions. There are plenty of us in uniform who are being responsible. "Black men make up excuses and never take responsability" What an insult that isn't always the case!!!!!!!!
