Hello Ladies I like to put the truth on the table like I always do , you donot need a man on your side that is not coming through, I am ashame to say most of our men do not have jobs ,first a man with out a job cannot help another if he cannot help himself second you give a little he wants a lot third he has too much time on his hand to do other things chances are you are not his only one. If he says he loves you he will change his situation so that he can be a help to himself first(not all men are this way ) but if you have a man/woman that you are in this situation with talk and pray that he/she gets a vision and goal to be goal centered and work towards that goal make your other half strong do not let them put you off...

I'd like to chime in and say my $3 worth. I'm a single BMW (black man working), with a great career, no kids, never been in jail (praise God), and I'm straight. However, these qualities alone don't always make for the best situation.

My challenge is and continues to be finding a godly women who appreciates being treated LADY-like. There's nothing wrong with being independent and getting the tab every now and then. However, women can't be relunctant to show affection and respect no matter the circumstances.

Let me also add that most men aren't looking for love, but rather desire respect and the actions of love. Let's not be like the vast majority of people and confuse s*x with love. Hope I'm not getting too deep. Think about it. How many of us verbalize "I love you" in the heat of passion, but afterwards our actions don't match? My grandmother, who is 92 rarely said those three words to her husband, kids or grandkids, but her actions always demonstrate her unconditional love. Don't get me wrong. It's necessary at times to hear those words, but it's more important our actions equal the verbalization.

I ready for Mrs. Right. The question: "Is Mrs. Right ready for me?" Now that's keeping it real. Peace!
