QUESTION: How do you cure a disease? Answer – By first, diagnosing the problem and then applying the proper remedy. Which is exactly what I’m about to do.
For years, I’ve watched black women and the media crucify black men and completely dog us out. I’ve seen black women go on TV shows, write books, make movies, etc., all to throw us black men under the bus. They tell the world that we’re all in jail, deadbeat dads, gay, losers, etc. But it’s almost a forbidden topic for a black man to express his dislikes in black women. If he does express his dislikes, he’s called all kinds of vicious names. It’s a double standard. Also, if us black men find love in an interracial relationship, we’re labeled “weak, self-haters, Uncle Toms, etc.” Because of this, I’m gonna speak my mind and tell the complete truth.
There’s a reason why so many black women are single, and it’s not because “there are no good black men.” There are a lot of good black men out here. Black women wonder why they’re single, but they crucify any man that tells them why. If the answer isn’t something along the lines of “because there are no good black men,” they don’t want to hear it. Well — this is where the nonsense ends. You can’t fix a problem without admitting that it exists. So if you’re an open-minded black woman that wants the truth, then continue reading and I won’t tell you anything wrong…
Reason #1 – You’re Asking For Things You Don’t Have To Offer
This is self-explanatory. I see women all the time that are fat, bad attitude, unemployed, broke, have kids, no car, a bunch of guys in her life that are “just friends,” etc. Then they’ll turn around and say they want a man with a job, a car, his own place, no kids, respectful, faithful, who’s tall & slim w/ muscles, etc. This is majority of the women I see. They have a long list of demands that they don’t meet themselves. A lot of women think they’re a great catch because they’re pretty and have great sex. That’s the furthest thing from the truth. I’m gonna break it to you easy…no man in his right mind with all of those things going for him will settle for the complete opposite. It’s that simple. That’s like going to an expensive restaurant and asking them to lower their prices because you can’t afford to eat there.
Reason #2 – The Way You Present Yourself
This is a major problem with most of the women. You can’t dress like a whore, and expect to attract Mr. Right. It’s funny when I used to browse the internet websites and see the women in the pics bent over in front of the camera, half-naked, sexually provocative poses, etc., then will say “don’t hit me up if you’re looking for sex.” Hilarious! Don’t expect to be treated like a lady when you look like a whoree. Secondly, the way you look, speak and act shows that you watch too much TV and listen to too much rap. Not to mention how you’re looking for some ignorant “thug, goon, gangsta, etc.” that you think you can mold into Mr. Right. It doesn’t work that way.
Reason #3 – Material Possessions Can’t Substitute A Good Personality
Here’s where a lot of you are gonna get mad, but it’s the truth. I see women go on and on about their college degrees, how they have their own place, car, job, money, etc. Then it ends there. It ends there because after that, they have nothing more to offer. A lot of you women tend to think that you’re Ms. Right just because you have your own everything. But that’s not true. You still need a great personality. You can easily be Ms. Wrong and still have your own everything. That’s why guys will easily take a woman who’s broke, but has a lovely personality over a woman who’s doing well financially with a funky attitude. Men and men like me encourage you to be able to support yourself, but it’s the attitude that runs men away.
No man is “threatened” by your success, so get that nonsense out of your head. Guys aren’t dating you because material possessions are the only thing you have going for you and nothing more. Besides, no man wants to be with a woman if he has to constantly hear her tell him that she doesn’t need him because she’s “independent.” If you’re so independent and don’t need a man, then why are you complaining about not being able to find anyone?
Reason #4 – You Want Too Much And Don’t Know What You Want
When I say that you ask for too much, that simply means that most of you are living in a fantasy world. You watch too many movies and want too many material things. A lot of you won’t even go out with a guy unless he’s spending money on you. If a guy invited you to his place to watch movies, spend time, talk, etc. and said that he’ll cook a good meal, most of you wouldn’t accept because you’d much rather him take you somewhere and spend money on you. To you all, spending money equals caring. But that’s nonsense. In addition to that, most of you don’t even know what you want in a mate. You ask for a good guy, then when you find him, you play games with him. Then when he leaves because he has no time for your games, you claim that there are no good men.
Reason #5 – You Look Like Precious But You Want LL Cool J
This is easy, so easy that I’m not gonna get deep into it. At least 7 out of 10 BBW’s want a man who’s thin and/or has muscles. Nevermind how they’re pushing 200 or 300 lbs., but insist on having a man who works out everday. If you’re a BBW and you happen to find a thin man that likes you, then more power to you. But if you’re fat and can’t find that thin or muscular man, then you need to either work on losing some weight or find a man that likes big women. You won’t find many men who workout everyday that will date a big woman. So there’s no need for the big women to try to lay the guilt-trip on thin guys who don’t find them attractive. Like I said earlier, either lose weight or find a man who likes big women. The man who likes fat women may not be attractive, but neither are you…so deal with it.
Reason #6 – You Think You’re Strong When You’re Really Antagonistic
This is one of the most important factors of everything listed so far. Black women have taken on this attitude that they call being a “strong black woman,” when in reality, they’re just antagonizing people. Your grandmothers were strong black women. Look at the difference between your grandmothers and yourself and you’ll see a huge difference. The arguing, the vulgarity, the smacking of the teeth, rolling your eyes, etc. doesn’t make you a strong woman. In fact, it makes you weak. The reason is makes you weak is because, ultimately, you’ll end up by yourself.
Many of you are quick to call a guy weak if he doesn’t want to argue all the time and put up with the drama. Call it what you want, but no one in their right mind is going to put up with that. It’s okay to respect other people and treat them as you wish to be treated. It doesn’t make you a weak woman if you respect other people. You’re not gonna find a man of substance until you lost this “strong black woman” attitude.
Reason #7 – Your Dating Priorities Are Backwards
I saved the best for last. Time and time again, I see black women pass up good black men because they’d rather be with the losers, the players, the deadbeats, the drug dealers, etc. They purposely get with these kinds of men, because they have some silly belief that they change him and mold him into Mr. Right. Then after that doesn’t work, she gets pregnant by the guy thinking that’s gonna make him change. When that fails, now she’s a single parent. She repeats this 3 more times. At this point, she has 3 kids with 3 different deadbeats as the fathers.
NOW she’s at a point where she wants to look for a good guy — the same kind of good guy she passed up to be with the deadbeats. She see’s the good guy as the one who’s gonna clean up the mess she’s made. But soon after, she realizes that it doesn’t work like that. After years of not being able to find Mr. Right who’s gonna accept her and her baggage, she goes on and on about how there are no good men. This could’ve easily been avoided had she not PURPOSELY chased after a guy that she knew wasn’t gonna treat her right. Many of you are thinking that this sounds like a stupid female. But guess what? Women are doing this everyday, this person may be YOU. How many times have you ignored a guy who approached you like a gentleman, but yet, gave a response to a guy that approached you in a rude manner? Probably lots of times. Leave the deadbeats alone and go for Mr. Right the first time — not after you have kids and other baggage.
Those are the top reasons why black women are single. The only way to fix these issues is by first looking in the mirror and admitting that they exist. After you’ve done that, now it’s time to work on it. Even if you’ve made some of these mistakes that I’ve mentioned, you can still work on fixing yourself for the future.
