Kelly & Eve: They got the fever for a different flavor
Photos: Abaca Press and Splash News Online (right)
Just yesterday I received an email from a loyal reader asking me if I thought Kelly Rowland was a lesbon since she’s never seen out with a man. Well, I guess not.
Kelly and Eve were spotted out recently accompanied by men who may or may not be their boyfriends. It certainly looks that way though.
I can’t say I blame the ladies for stepping over to the other side where the grass looks greener. The current crop of available black men are a sorry lot indeed.
If they aren’t undercover fags, they’re creeping with your best friend, they can’t pull their pants up, smoke too much damn weed, refuse to get a job, or won’t pay their child support.
I know industry women right here in the A who stack plenty cheese but refuse to date brothas because they’re so triflin’.
We have to do better with raising our boys to be men.

If you gone step out on the other side lets make sure they are number 1 some what attractive and shaves because them furry stubbles is not the business.
I GET SICK AND TIRED ON BLACK WOMEN SYAING THEY CAN’T FIND NO GOOD BLACK MEN.
1. HAVE U CHECKED URSELF AND NOTICED WHATT U R DOING WRONG
2. WHERE R U LOOKING FOR THESE MEN AT
-CLUBS/BARS
-CORNERS
-WHEN THEY’RE WITH ANOTHER WOMAN
3. YOU SAY THEY AREN’T GOOD ENOUGH FOR U, WHAT DO U WANT IN A MAN
4. WHAT HAPPENED TO ALL THE BLACK MEN THAT ARE IN COLLEGE, (I BEILEVE THE NUMBER HAS RISEN)
5. I SEE PLENTY OF UGLY BUSINESS MEN (BUT WE SET OUR STANDARDS SO HIGH WHY)
AMEN. finally Sandra got something right!
It’s a sad bunch of men out there….slim pickings. I commend them for finding their happiness.
HOWEVER I just cant blame them. Look @ our BLACK, BITTER WOMEN…!! It’s sad.
Just continue to read this blog - you’ll see.
just because u never see her with a man doesn’t make her gay. next you’ll say because im a guy and will kiss another guy AND think polow da don is sexy, but thick, i’m gay????

This is the answer. I don’t care what n e one says but i believe the way a person turns out is fro how they were raised at home. yes, some cases are exceptional when a child does a whole 180, but if you raise that boy right he will turn into a fine young man.
And now and days we don’t need no father so don’t make that as an excuse, if you choose to lay day with a no good black/white guy, you face the consequences of your child not having a father. You just have to work harder to ensure YOUR child is raised right. Once babies stop having babies we can work on these problems.

U sure u not gay lls. I mena I wouldn’t have a problem if u were lol.
Joking
I agree Lovely it is sad. But you attract people that are like you. So if they cant find good brothas then they need to evaluate themselves to see why they attract aint shyt brothas. (Now I’m speculating that these guys are their boyfriends) Just need to set that out there before someone throws some ****assness my way.
I don’t think because you white the grass is greener on the other side.It’s just that some guys are looking for a momma and not a companion.I applaud them, but hey don’t through the black men under the bus because I know there a few of them out there.There are black men doing what it takes to make something of themselves.It seems like that’s what people seem to forget.Black men get no love no matter how hard they try-even the good ones.
I guess everybody wants “something new,” but I prefer a black man after I dated quite of few outside my race.
The real test,”will they bring those ladies to meet their momma” lol
well i don’t know about other places. all i DO know is that i live in raleigh, nc and had to go all the way to alabama to find a husband. b/c the brothas here are NOT what’s up.
So is Kelly doing the high end escort thing or not? I hear that’s what she’s up to in Europe and some of the few black… courtesans are not too pleased. I already that’s Eve hustle.
People stop getting your panties in abunch when Aunty Sandra says a bunch of inflammatory statements.
and i have been down with the swirl before. it just wasn’t for me. nothing wrong with it if that is what you like. i for one, didn’t like pink sausage meat. i like that brown and serve.
and i wanted to settle down and have some babies. like taraji p. henson said in “something new”…
“some black, ashy babies!”
PREACH !!!!!

LMFAO….my boyfirend says the samething, he don’t want no raw meat (pink) he like his meat cooked (brown)
Ladyrazor, I agree. You attract yourself. And I didn’t believe that with my husband because we are exact opposites personality-wise, but our values, goals and needs are just the same. There are good men out there, but like LovelyLady said, you have to look at yourself, what you want and your surroundings.
It’s official! Eve done lost her God damned mind! She done went HollyWeird for real! She left her blackness with the Ruff Ryders!
I expect I from Kelly, so I’ll leave her alone.
And we all know these White men cheat just as much as the Black ones do, if not even in a more sinister way, because White folks do sh!t way different than we do.
If you can’t find a good Black man, it’s because you don’t know what one looks like. They are out there. I think it’s just a hard to find a good Black woman…Like me!
@lovelylady & ladyrazor
I agree with you both, on that subject, It so depends on where you are looking for these men at, and sometimes you have to stop looking and that man will find you.
@sharonda
I agree with you also, that does not mean their going to be better, their are dogs and womanizers in every culture.
I really hope that is not eve’s new man cuz he a fool worse than kelly’s, I would have to have that soccer player what’s the new fine as wine soccer player’s name I think it’s like christian or something.
and for all who said let the man find you…i wasn’t even looking (i HAD a man) and i found him. i was in town for my grandmother’s funeral. he was a friend of the fam and it was his birthday weekend and he said “i know you are grieving and all of that, but let me take you out. i promise you won’t regret it.”
he said some thing that were so true…”why is your man not here with you? everybody else’s significant other came, but you are alone.” i couldn’t even FIND an excuse for my boyfriend at the time. this fool did not have to work, did not have class, he just chose not to go.
my husband kids all the time now and says “that busta you was with before me….just GAVE his woman away…”
Sandra Good job
I think that everyone is correct with their statements. It’s always two sides to a story. I believe part of the problem is due to the focus places on rappers because women look at them as “accomplished” but they have bad behavior. The idea takes away from the good men who work regular job any salary range.
I also believe that Black women Raise Black Men and its up to the Black Women to instill values in thier young Black Boys. If the case is babies having babies then Grandma should help instill values but sometimes Grandma is still recaputuring her youth. The black family is in shambles and its going to take generations to close the gap of ignorance that surronds our race. The process will be long and slow. The problem with the black man is that he does not respect his woman and is very sloppy with his game. The white dude usually does his thing on the low unless he wants to get caught in the act. They have problems too what may look good on the outside is sick on the inside they hide it better for the family. I dont know which one is worse but it makes us as black females and males look bad to other people.
Lovelylady,
You took the words right out of my mouth. We have to evaluate ourselves as black women. We say we want a man that is sensitive, but quick to call him gay if he shows his emotional side. We say we want a strong black brother, but refuse to let him lead due to our independence. We say we want a brother with good credit and money in the bank but we don’t have A1 credit and some don’t even have a bank account. I’m just saying.
Oh Please!! We all know that Eve has self hate issues and plus she’s bisexual anyway I don’t know why she’s fronting with these white men..As far as Kelly I’m not mad at her I would love to see more Hollywood black woman step outside the box, hell these sorry ass, color struck negros have no problem sporting white/mixed breed women on their arms and will proudly do it in a heart beat..They’ll pass up a educated sista like Michelle Obama for a clueless trophy ho who has noting to offer but a good head game..Look at Reggie Bush with dyck su**ing, ball guzzeling, passed around tramp Kim K and has no shame in the fact that 90% of America think his girl is a hoe and has watched her get down on video tape..It just amazes me how black men lower their standards.
GO KELLY!!!
Yeah ALABAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!! i see you Kwallace
oh sandra i hate to admit it but many of what you say are true about the state of black men. HOWEVER that does not mean there are not some left. for example i got the juice on sarah palan’s daughter bristol. check out this video of the real baby’s father saying that he wants to be a part of the baby’s life but mrs.palan refusuing it bcz he’s BLACK (gasp!)!!

@ DivaMama
Girl I feel you. These brothas our out there. My husband and I are high school sweethearts. He is my best friend and we are so much alike it scares me..lol he knows things before I even say them. I’m 23yrs old and was blesed to find my better half at an early age. If you know yourself and understand you as a person then you would be able to separate the real from the fake man out here. I for one know what I want and I got him.
Yeah I’m in the process of weeding the fakes from the real……..It seems like everybody got a damn game they want to play………I’m too old for that s h i t…..
as a black man i am insulted, lord this this is a mess, but since 80% of black households are headed by single women, you should accuse black women of raising the men you choose to date. as i tell my niece, if you want man who wants nothing out of life then you are going to get nothing out of life. there are millions of black men on collage campus who are about living the good life pursue them. if i said the same thing about the crop of black women out here i’d get attitude and put in my place.
if they want a white man, aint nothing a black man can do about it.
now when im at my BIRTHDAY party tomorrow and white chicks from work and my social affiliations, come up an ask me to dance, dont get all mad and huffy when i do. because this topic just caused it.
I’m going to agree with sandra, but only to a certain extent. I never saw anything wrong with going to the other side, so i won’t even go there anyways. Point is, when you limit yourself, you made your chances slim. So many want a good black man, and TRUST they are out there, but lets keep it real…….the crop is few. I”m keepin my mind open for whoever comes along….i could care less for hwat he is. I’m not going into who’s better black or white men…..its a rediculous convo. There are good and bad men…black and white.
Too many women are babying there grown azz boys. Its absolutely rediculous. No wonder they don’t know how to take care of themselves. I know guys who’s mother buys there groceries, still do their laundry, change their sheets. Its absolutely rediculous.
yep @goat. yall ‘bama men holds it DOWN. i got to give props. i had started to think there were no good men left.
i not only found my life partner but i found a business partner, a sex partner, a a hanging out partner, all of that. in one man. in one BLACK man.
@ Teecee

Oh and happy early bday!!
I for one agree that the pool of available dateable black men is shallow-would I date outside my race-no at least I haven’t and don’t see that changing anytime soon
but please don’t act like that this situation is only unique to some black women-I know many of you viewed the statistics of black women that marry 48% which very low compared to whites, and did any of you see “black in america” and they addressed this very same issue
my sisters, I don’t come on here to be contrary but if the situation was only about black women doing self-reflection or raising their standards of the men they date-trust me sisters would do just that…..
why is it that so many of us, blame sisters so quickly for their lack of baby daddies or husbands, and those of you who are “blessed” to have a good man, husband, baby daddy etc. keep it real it wouldn’t be considered rare if it were common right? So it’s obvious there is growing issue with black men and it’s easier for many of us to sleep at night if we place the blame on ourselves because we only have the power to change ourselves and it’s apparent we don’t want to look at the real issues with black men because we lack very little power or influence over them & they know hence they continue a long “as is” because they know many women will tolerate them and accept them just as they are-because of the so called black man crisis
Not your girl, I am educated,employed, financially secure, and I be damn if I am going to deal with a trife nicca just to say I have a man-and the employed brothers who have their own to me can be the worst-because they view themselves as a commodity -because of the so called shortage
These are real issues and to me sometimes we try to justify or blame ourselves for things we have very little to do with…straight and plain it’s a lot of black men out here who aint looking to date and find a suitable mate-they are out for sex and someone to take care of them and the stats of unemployment and dead beat dads prove that!
@teecee
so blame the person who chose to stay and be responsible to even care for the child and put no blame on the absent father?
wow-that’s says a mouthful…
Shoot, I’m with them. I wish I could run into the white man of my dreams. 25 years of brothas has worn my a$$ out.
@ goat76 - aint that the truth……why play games…too darn old. grrrr!
@intense mocha
I COMPLETELY AGREE 100% WITH EV ERY WORD YOU JUST WROTE!
I swear we as black women make too many excuses for black men. The ones that are successful in the eyes of the world know the worth, and they usually cheat and have jacked up attitudes cause they recognize there are a shortage of black men of their caliber.
The hustler/gang banger/thug/jail inmate wants to be accepted on the basis of his heart, and not on his deed..and he still considers himself a good man and will yell at you not to judge him.
The nerds with no style, no game, no fuc/kin nothing think they deserve a woman too, and yet don’t feel the woman should be shallow and be naturally attracted to them. Instead they feel like “so what i’m a nerd and ugly, i’m a good man.” Okay, but they need to raise their game a bit and meet the woman halfway…they know majority of black women are stylish and that shyt aint flying.
I can go on and on regarding this topic, but bottom line, i think black men make a bunch of excuses, and don’t try as hard as they can to be good men….The number that enter college is proportionately lower than many other races (damn shame in 2008), and even though some enter, they don’t graduate and stick it out.
Black women long ago raised the bar for ourselves…we understood no one was taking care of us, and we knew we would marginally be responsible for our households…that’s why so many of us enter and complete college no matter what obstacles come along; we have never been able to depend on the black man. Yet, we are the least revered in terms of women on the earth, especially by our own men. I think it’s a shame when white men or men of other races find more beauty in our race than we do…and though black women are now straying outside the color line, i have to say this, black men need to suck it up, cause yall started this shyt, dating all them white women.
famous and rich black folks in general seem to be down with the swirl. Don’t compare your life to theirs
^^^^^^^^^^^
WHAT TOPIC ARE YOU POSTING ABOUT?
SWIRL ALL DAY LONG-I TRULY DON’T CARE
I AINT NEVER BEEN IN THE BUSINESS OF WANTING SOMEONE WHO DON’T WANT ME YA DIG-SO IF A BROTHER LIKE A WHITE WOMAN BETTER FOR HIM-CAUSE HE OBVIOUS AINT IN TO ME-SO NO LOVE LOST……
AND IF A SISTA FINDS LOVE ON THE OTHER SIDE GOOD FOR HER..
FOR ME I ONLY KNOW AND WANT BLACK LOVE/MY PREFERENCE AND I RECOGNIZE THAT
AND TO KEEP IT PHUNKY SOME DATE WHITE BECAUSE IT’S POPULAR-MY DAD’S BEST FRIEND WAS MARRIED TO A WHITE WOMAN WAY BEFORE IT WAS POPULAR BACK IN THE 70′S AND SHE WAS A TRUE SISTER IN EVERY SINCE OF THE WORD BECAUSE SHE SHARED SIMILAR UPBRINGING AND WAS RAISED IN THE SAME ENVIRONMENT-SHE DIDN’T HAVE TO PRETEND TO BE SOMETHING THAT WAS NATURAL FOR HER UNLIKE SOME OF THESE FOLKS JUMPING ON THE BANDWAGON TODAY-I’M JUST CALLING IT LIKE I SEE IT-IT’S A FAD……
@MIMI08
I WAS HOPING SOMEONE COULD RELATE TO WHAT I POSTED IT’S A SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS WHEN WE INTERNALIZE AND BLAME OURSELVES FOR A GROWN ADULTS SHORTCOMINGS-
SISTERS ARE DOING THE DAMN THANG-FROM THE HOME HEALTH AIDES TO THE CORPORATE SISTAS-AT LEAST WE DON’T MIND HAVING A JOB AND WE TAKE CARE OF THE KIDS-AND WE STILL ACCOMPLISH MORE THAN BLACK MEN….LOL IF I CAN DO IT & WITH KIDS HE SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO IT TO NO EXCUSES ALLOWED
I’m in the swirl right now. I didn’t even think abiut race. I didn’t care. He was cute, good job, sweet, treated me right, sex is on fire, why waste time thinking about his skin?
Nobody said you have to date only within your race.
@SEATTLE SLIM
IF HE’S GOOD TO YOU AND FOR YOU I AINT MAD ATCHA
I PREFER BLACK MEN, NOT SURE IF A WHITE MAN WAS INTERESTED IN ME THAT I WOULD GIVE HIM THE TIME OF DAY, I’M NOT AS ATTRACTED TO THEM PHYSICALLY AS BLACK MEN
Some black women are not dating outside their race because of black men. We just like to “regulate on any shade of that ass.”
I’d smash a fine papi, brother, asian,middle eastern, it doesn’t matter.
Word up intense mocha! There are some women who date ir because of self hate issues. Not a good look.
His biggest test came when I went natural. I cut all my hair off. Left less than an inch of natural hair. He was worried but when he saw me he loved it. I am still natural. But longer. When I pressed it for an event last saturday he kept bugging me to wash it out and get my fro back. He loves that fro. The bigger the better in his eyes.
That’s when I knew he was on the level. Any man who can take a sister natural is worth keeping.
I did have a problem with interracial dating at first, but as I am trying to grow and make it to another place, I just realize we all are god’s children and if someone makes you happy then go for it. but i will say that their are good men in all colors and shapes and sizes I have uncle’s and grandfathers that were good men, and their are bad men just like in all cultures white woman, asian woman, chinese woman, italian women, all go thru the same things with men.I am almost thirty and I have learned a lot and one of those things being that, it is important not to go looking for men especially in the wrong places which is also huge. My kids go to a predominantly white school and now their liking the little white girls and I was mainly sending them their for a better education but now I had to realize that now i could be dealing with white girls, and trying to live a better life I had to just come to grips with everything, if the person treats you right then it shouldn’t matter what skin type they have, everybody is allowed happiness and preference, I prefer black men, and I would love for my kids to marry a black woman which i do talk to them about but not pressure them or make them think their doing something wrong. I do have a problem with people dating outside of the race and then dogging black men!
I understand what you sayin Seattle Slim cuz I know I would love regardless of color…If you look good and you treat me right, then it doesnt matter to me what color you are. But it also depends on where you are and what your surroundings are. In reality, my surroundings never allowed me the opportunity to date outside my race. For example, I went to an all black high school so I never had the chance to date outside my race. I have only dated black men but I wouldn’t rule out any other races AND I defintely wouldn’t put down the entire race of black men either. My last 2 relationships were with black men that were college educated and they always made sure I was taken care of (and to this day they still do)
So we need to be careful about putting down ALL black men just because we can’t seem to find the right one. If you’re preference is to date white men or spanish men then that’s fine, but it shouldnt be because you think all black men are bad or worthless.
I dont think anything is wrong with dating out of race. I’ve done it before. He moved and that’s when we parted ways. But still friends to this day. Do for my son just like it was his.
Seattle Slim - as long as you are happy.
I have high standards and I won’t compromise them just to have a man. I like FINE and GOOD. I definitely prefer Black men, and haven’t strayed to the swirl yet, BUT I’m keeping my options open…in the meantime I’m comfortable being on my own.
hey pure & sharonda…that TI post got pretty tense yesterday didn’t it!
@ pure: i’m keeping my options open as well…i ventured on the other side one and he was a sweet guy, but i enjoyed or friendship more than trying to see where “it” will lead…he and i are still good friends to this day though…
in hindsight, when i was younger i feel i compromised or maybe it took me some time to “grow-up”…but now my standards are def high and i refuse to accept just anything…come correct or don’t come at all…
@SEATTLE SLIM
OH YEAH HE’S DEFINITELY A KEEPER GIRL
AND I JUST FINISHED READING THE TI POST FROM YESTERDAY
HELLA HILARIOUS-ENJOYED IT THOROUGHLY
KYMESTRY, ELOVE, HUNE916(SHE WAS ON FIYAH), & BIRD
I HATE I MISSED THAT POST I WAS TOO BUSY ON ANOTHER SITE POSTING ON THE SAME STORY-BUT THE ABOVE POSTERS SHUT IT DOWN AND POSTED THE SAME VIEWS I SHARED…LOL
DAMN THIS IS STARTING TO BECOME ADDICTING-I’M GOING TO LOSE MY JOB IF DON’T STOP POSTING SOO MUCH-
Hey blogger! =) Yeah, that shyt went on forever! We were like the only ones just like YAY!! We don’t have kids!! WHOO HOO!! While everyone else was fightin it out! LOL!! =D It all just reminded me how I’ve made the right decision for me.
Not sure where you’re at, but I’m in the A, and it seems like here there is much less diversity…it’s either Blacks, Whites, Asians or Mexicans…that’s it. I think if I lived somewhere like NY I would have been happily swirled by now! LOL!! I mean, where the fine Puerto Ricans at?! I could definitely get down with that! =) Very rare that I see any in these parts. Maybe some Italian…Spanish…hmmmm….
Sandra said it best…
People do have to look at the household which the children were raised. Everything starts in the home….. Racisim, Sexism, abuse, emotional issues and future dreams all of these things take into account how the child will develop man or woman
@purepisces I live in NYC and even though its a melting Pot the swirl rate is not high. Most cultures live in seprate sections of each borough. The “Hood” being made up of mostly Black and Hispanic.. Change is coming in Harlem more white people moving into the “hood” (buying Brown Stones). Spanish people generally don’t date black its never said out loud but they don’t want their daughter or sons dating black.
I AM SO GLAD I HAVE KIDS.
Uh oh leg me make it over to the ti post lol
@ pure: i’m in Chicago! i love me some ATL though! i spent my bday there back in june…the same wkend as the radio/concert/bday/whatever you call it…girl, i had so much fun and ate so well…i was also out there jan and oct…
i just finished reading the posts i didn’t get to last night…i took my a$$ to a party and had a blast!
Oh please miss me with the YOU HAVE TO WORK ON YOURSELF, HE WILL FIND YOU BS. The truth is black women have to explore other options for all the reasons Sandra listed. Yes there are some good brothers out there but that in no ways compares to the garbage thats out there. For every brother that is in College or Coperate America there are 2 my bad 3 that are either GAY, LOCKED UP, OR DATING WHITE WOMEN. Thats reality and if you are married and have been so for more than 5 yrs you have no idea what single women have to go through especially in this city bc the women to men ratio is ridiculous! I’m an accomplished black woman with pleanty of self love but the truth is ITS HARD PERIOD POINT BLANK.
@ Candi
Really?! I’ve got a few folks that live up there who’ve been swirlin for a minute. I HAVE heard about the segregation in the boroughs though. At least there is SOME opportunity though, you just don’t seen all the colors of the racial rainbow here at all. That said, I do love the A!! I guess not for dating, but for the city itself. Nice place to live. We’ve got the celeb disease down here now, all the music stars down here and movin down here…it’s jumpoff central. Maybe I need to move my ass to Miami…only place I can think of that I’d like to live besides Atlanta…
@Blogger
I’ve been to Chicago, just twice but it was cool. You were down here for 107.9’s Birthday Bash, I think? Always a good time. I don’t go out much, but I do like the concert itself.
@Kay………Where are you??????
@pure, You are correct it does happen mostly in a small location in Manhattan “the Village”.
I’ve been south but never been to the “A” would like to visit one day… I am so cityfied don’t really care for the country. All the bugs and animals (skunks, etc).
OOOH Candi!! I KNOW you ain’t callin the A the country!!! Thems fighting words!!! LOL!! EN GARDE!!! =P
Yeah def. don’t come if thats your thoughts of the South…..
@ goat76
ATL
@goat and Pure… See you can tell I never visited. If you ever spoke to me you would say I know where you are from because you have a NY accent. I just in my ignorance thought ATL was country due to the southern accent I have heard from visitors and co-workers who relocated. But, none the less I would love to visit to broaden my visions. I heard you all can party and let me say I love partying.
LOL… Not bad country..
opps at my typos long ago (lol, sorry I’ve just got out of work!)
LOL!! Yeah, folks like to get their party on around here, specially now with the huge music scene. Not to mention all the freakin strip clubs. Partying here is definitely different than NY in two main respects…NY is the city that never sleeps AND ya’ll have no smoking in bars. Within the Atlanta city limits, except for a few exceptions, clubs have a 2am shut down…WHICH SUCKS!! Plus I would KILL for the no smoking part, one of the major reasons I don’t go out much. I always end up stinking of weed, Black & Milds and cigarettes, and dehydrated as all hell…as soon as I get home have to put my clothes in a plastic bag or have a stanky apartment. Ick. I’ve been to NY several times and LOVE it, but can’t see living there…
Oh, and I don’t have a southern accent! I’m not actually from here, been here a long time though. Did pick up a bit of southern slang which my mom hates. =) Couldn’t help it!
Ok… Yes, NY has changed with the no smoking rules and yes I like that smoking has been banned. After 2 AM are there any after parties to attend? NY always has the spots that are open 24 hours for parting. I went to a few and did not know I was leaving at 4PM because it was so dark inside it still felt like 3am.
I really like being able to take the subway because if my car goes on the spritz I can get on the train and go anywhere at any time from any location.
I see pictures of the parties in ATL and they look like so much fun. I have to go
@Candi
They like to party here, but it’s all getting so celebrity-driven. People ain’t tryin to come out and have a good time unless some celeb is there, then they just wanna stand around and pose for each other. There’s other places to party outside the city limits, usually to around 4am or later. Thing here is we’re so spread out, the metro area is huge. We have mass transit here too (MARTA) but it’s not near as extensive as the subway there, plus hardly anyone uses it. Here you really need a car, hard to get by without one.
I am originally from Sacramento (born and raised) but I have been living in Georgia for 4 years and I must say this isn’t a good dating State. The men are either married, DL, fake wanna-be’s, or feel like they don’t have to commit because the women out weigh the men. I was fortunate to meet a man another State and we have been doing pretty good. I get hit on by Mexican, White, Indian and Asian men but I can’t do it. I see plenty of black women with white men in the A but me personally I couldn’t do it.
@ purepisces-
You ain’t never lied about having to have a car here. If you don’t you are up short.
@ Natural
I hear you loud and clear. The last dude I dated seriously was out of state too for the same reasons that you mentioned.
@ natural
Okay?! I am tired of my hooptie, but pray it doesn’t die on me! =) I can’t imagine ever having to rely on MARTA to get around. There ain’t enough hours in the day.
I won’t say there aren’t any eligible good Black men here, but my standards rule out the ones I have met. Shyt, what do I know? I don’t anywhere to meet anyone, basically just work, home and the stores. Kinda hard to meet anyone that way!! =) I guess if I ever make having a mate a priority, I’ll have to step my game up!!
Looky here, I’m all for all these undercover folks who really dislike BM or BW getting on that “something new” bandwagon! Please keep going and don’t come back…
With all the damage already done within the Black community, the last thing we need is these ole double agents who really dont like BM or BW eventually getting with one and having Black babies. Cause Lord knows they end up raising more lil self haters…
But I have to relay something I’ve seen at least 5 times in the recent months, I’ve been out and about shopping and whatnot and ran across several bw with white dudes and I’m not fronting but in every instance these women couldn’t break their stares at your dude. Real talk, it’s like they see 6′3″ of chocolate and forget where they at!!! One dude was looking right at ole girl while she was staring at me and he wuddent too happy. I find it comical on many levels.
