ok from the guys forums, and my guy friends/ex boyfriends i've noticed that they all are searching for a dime. BUT many of the guys seaching for a dime are no more than a 5 themselves. Why do you girls think guys are like this? Do they think they look better than they do? Or are they just bold? From personal experience it seems the lower a guy is on the scale the more courage he has in approaching a girl. Then the guys that me and my friends drool over haven't EVER had a a girlfriend. What's the deal? Why all the busted dudes going for dimes, and the fine guys acting shy?

*cackles* That is all it takes to make some women happy. If more and more of you keep settling for less and less, then the poorer the quality of male you'll continue to come across on a more consistent basis.

I'd never thought I'd say this twice in a row, but...I kind of agree. Blink

Then again, it could be the sociological environment that we women are often placed in. Closedeyes

..especially for Black women. there's a much greater percentage of us unmarried then there is for Black men. so, eventually i guess we start to settle. then everytime these pennies are able to reel in somebody they should neverrrr have been able to breathe the same air as- a cent is added to their confidence. so in a sense, L0l, they become dimes themselves. (if only because they are in limited supply.) shucks, i might just have to journey on across that color line..get me a little filipino dude wit some respect

For most ethnicities, there are more men married than women. For more information, check out the study published by the US Census Bureau.( http://www.census.gov/prod/2005pubs/p70-97.pdf ). I recommend brothers and sisters exercise patience and build better relationships. We should address the future of Black families in our community. I have several male friends that are financially stable, educated, corporate, and honorable. More importantly, their desire is to marry a black woman. With that said, let’s find a way to connect brothers and sisters in holy matrimony. What can we do as black people (African American, Afro-Latin, Caribbean, African, etc..) to strengthen the relationships between our men & women? Smile

Gotta disagree. I didn't see any notable resources and there was not quantitative data. Show me the raw data and let me interpret the numbers for myself.

The reason nice looking guys don't approach women, is because they are used to being approached. Where as the **** guys, are bold enough to approach women. That is why you are seeing more and more **** guys with attactive women, because attractive women aren't going to approach a guy because they don't feel like they have to. That causes the attractive people to keep passing each other by. That is why the nice looking guys are single, because they think they are too good looking to go up to a woman. So they are letting all the **** guys, get all the women! LOL For instance, Jay Z got him a beautiful woman simply because he was bold enough to approach Beyonce'. Beyonce has probably crossed professional athletes, actors, and all kind of attractive men, but simply because they didn't approach her, Jay Z pulled her. So I'm not mad at the **** men, because they are acting how men are supposed to act. They are the ones who are supposed to show the interest first and go up to a woman. As Creflo Dollar said on one of his messages, "You can put some anointing on some **** because cute don't pay the bills. Women aren't concerned with cute men anymore!"

Also, I would like to add to my message above. Women's perspectives change as they get older. The things women desire out of a man changes. Yeah, when you are younger and in high school a man being cute is an important factor. Yet, when you become older "cute" is farther down on the list of importance. That is another reason why women are dating and marrying less attractive men because they have more to offer than looks.

You brought up some very interesting points. In general, I think some people consider looks as the most important thing. Essentially, it's one of the main differentiators for selecting a person. As individuals get older, they start to look outside of the physical realm. You start evaluating a person in terms of financial management, mentality, supportiveness, respect, values, morals, and spirituality, etc. You have to consider, if you can work with the person as a team, especially if you decide to have children. The goal is to spend your life happy and peaceful. Therefore, it’s important to find someone that’s compatible with you on all levels. Thumbup1
