I was with her for the sake of the kids. Thought that if the money was right and the situations were good, I could get the best out of her.

Reality: I didn't know I was a beta simp. Which I've been for years. I basically never put my foot down and gave her way too many chances to shyt on me.

I had a tremendous fear of being a single dad
, just didn't want my daughter (now daughters) to grow up in a single parent household situation. I grew up like that, just had a bad effect on me, so I didn't want that for my kids.

Thanks for the suggestions @CarmelBarbie ... I'll give them a shot and see what's what.

I understand. I had tremendous fear of being a single mom, but I did leave my son's father. I came from a two parent household, with a traditional SAHM mom and a dad that was always a provider, so I saw the benefits of that family structure and wasn't as exposed to singlemotherhood. My fears in becoming a single parent were the unknowns of it and trying to raise a boy as a woman. But at the time leaving him was the best decision I could have made for myself and my son. It took a couple of years after I left him, for us to become the friends that we are today, and peacefully co-parent, but we were able to accomplish that. I'm not advocating for you to become a single father--but just saying I sort of get where your coming from about fearing it, especially since you were raised by a single parent and it had a negative impact on your life. It's noble that your staying for your children. I hope that you guys are able to make it work.

Keep it funky, women are not trying to marry to "pool resources" they're trying to marry up. That's why people with similar incomes marrying is a rarity.

:sas2:


you see how she was mocking a breh making 25k..... his 25k (no debt) and her 34k (mucho debt) equals 57k a year; mid class family....... black women are bad material... and you can not build with bad material........

I've been peeping your posts for a minute. You shyt on BW a lot, in nearly every thread about BW, you have something negative to say about us. Your reputation is in the red, and your dap to post ratio is just okay. Your obviously a troll, or a bitter person, but I'll bite. Since black women are bad material to you, just PAWG in peace and KIM. You won't be missed.

Men just getting tired of constant drama and trying to be ran. We live in the “take me as I am” era with people. There are no goals or ambitions towards self improvement. So you get a generation of broken people who demand they be accepted as such. The world don’t work that way.

Actually nah it doesn't suck at all. I'm dealing with someone now and have been in serious relationships since I left my son's father where the men didn't bat in eye about me having a child. Get hit on, nearly everytime I go out gives me an ego boost, but then again, even if I didn't, I know at this point that I'm a catch and that I'm very wanted. I guess it's a part of the territory when your attractive, in shape(which a lot of women in my age range aren't because they don't work out) feminine, sweet, secure in who you are, and are NFG what people think about your situation. :yeshrug: :blessed:

Thanks for contributing breh.

And since you really just negged me for no apparent reason, other than my existence upsets you, your being placed on ignore.

I like her but she confuses me so much. Wasn't she just on The Breakfast Club talking about how she doesn't want a man and is too focused on her career picking up? This tells me that is bs but in the back of all our minds we know that there is nothing most women want more than a man who can sweep them off their feet and this confirms that. They wake up dreaming of that shyt at times and go to bed dreaming about it, yet you rather chase nikkas who do not really want you and toss away the nikkas that do.

You can be a feminist and still promote healthy women, men, and relationships. Sure they are a lot of ain't shyt dudes out there, but stop acting like good men do not exist. You attract what you are. The greatest gift guys can learn is accountability and self-respect. With both of these things, no woman can ruin you or your life. Guys should behave like they are the catch good dudes are fukking hard to find now and women nowadays are fueling their tanks on social media which can have your running on poison. Maybe Seals should look at herself and see why this is happening instead of this over indulgence in self-love or "loving yourself" that has women thinking they can do no wrong.

Nothing more disgusting than seeing a guy come clean about their wrongs in a relationship while women act like there aren't things they couldn't do better. :hhh::scust:


The thing with this is that even though a fact I do believe that it also is a cop out.

It is an easy thing to say to cover up the fact that there is the fear of relationships as they may have not gone as expected.

A career can go up and down like a relationship but you are not going to back out from that as that not only can give you confidence but can also cover up a facade of the vulnerability and the pains.

But people do not want to concentrate on analyzing and fixing themselves internally because people value the exterior and status over character. And the only way some believe to be an equal is to be on the same level.

There is no such thing as a equal and some people don't get that. You feed of each others differences to help make you a better person

People find it hard to understand that you can have both.

Your career/occupation should not be your whole life.

Focusing on nothing but that and competing with the Joneses is why so many people are mentally tired, suffer depression and get in financial trouble which is similar to being in a relationship for some people.

However if you have a partner who is supportive and that you can share your achievements with and not even that but be an outlet to take your mind away from the stresses of a Career to the point that you don't even need to talk to them about it will give people a clearer piece of mind. A partner should be an outlet from a Career not part of it.

Problem is for some people they do not understand what life is supposed to be and would rather survive than live.

It all comes down to looking at the true reality of life which many people out there fail to do.

And plus what I have learned with social media is that people with esteem and relationship issues have the power to brainwash the vulnerable to help feed on their own faults and vulnerabilities to try and numb the pain that deep down they themselves carry.

But real shyt no matter how much you put on a front that pain will cut deep no matter how hard they try to hide it.

Nobody wants to be in the over 40's clubs just looking to settle with anything knowing that the playboy / sex in the city lifestyle was not all it was made to be.

My thing is this. It is better to be by yourself rather than fake a relationship and waste someones time and emotions. But also don't fake the fact that you want to be loved and that you have made mistakes that you regret.

And if you want someone, let them know you want them.

There are more men in prison, with felonies, unemployed, than there are women.
Those men aren't suitable for marriage or long term commitments.
:yeshrug: This assumes the premise that all the women are suitable to long term commitments.

Which I find doubtful.

If anything the fact that more black men are married than black women would strengthen my belief that there are MORE, ready, commitment minded black men than black women.

You really believe that there are more bm than bw(even though bw outnumber bm) that are suitable to be married because more of them are incorrectly choosing nonbw who later divorce them(which strengthens my belief that a lot of people may not be suitable good partners like they think, that they aren’t choosing right, and/or that the belief that nonbw make greater partners is flawed when it comes to bm, because these women end up leaving in the long run)? A greater number of bm might be married but it doesn’t mean much if these marriages aren’t holding up... if anything it supports the notion that there are men that might think they are ready but they aren’t choosing right and/or were really not suitable partners to begin with.

People that aren’t ready or suitable get married all the time. I’m more interested in the marriages that last and that are successful, and usually that is more likely when both people are suitable and ready for all the good and bad a marriage encompasses. A lot of men and women aren’t these days. I don’t even know if I can make a blanket statement about one gender the way you have because I’ve seen that the pool of good marriage candidates is trash for both bw and bm. Let’s just admit that the dating pool is mostly trash for both bm and bw.

You state this as if black women don't also divorce black men. Some studies put the divorce rate between black men and black women at 70 percent.

But the fact is people found it suitable to marry these men. While with BW it's less so. I personally believe more black men want to be married (or at least try harder) than black women.

Bottom line women (like my soon to be BUSHED ex-fiance) are high on expectations and LOW on value.

You can't be high expectations and want a man to do EVERYTHING that helps to facilitate her peace of mind and you have nothing of value that is going to literally make his life better.

Think about all the shyt that the average woman wants her man to do; HAVE the requisite credentials AND give access to your hard earned resources and leave them at her disposal... while also having empathy, being romantic, taking initiative to be creative, pay for dates, act chivalrous, communicate, pivot to her varying degrees of emotions (emotional availability) AND be faithful... just turn off the response to every single woman you are NATURALLY attracted to for the rest of your entire life. :stopitslime:

ALL FOR WHAT EXACTLY?

For her happiness and peace of mind, of course. Because a happy wife = happy life.

EXCEPT it does not. You learn the reality that women like this aren't often ever pleased. Many of them will always want more, they will always complain, they will always push and prod and nag.

When's the last time your wife/fiance/serious gf went out of her way to take initiative to DO something for you that did not necessarily benefit her? If it's been longer than a month, she's one of THOSE women.
Lol happy wife = happy life is some bullshyt. Happy women, miserable man.

And again you are correct you can’t please her. It will always be something. Sad but it’s true.

I can't do a full assessment on Seales because I obviously don't know her personally, but based on the variables I do know I'll say:

1. She is a coastal residing blipster, and these folks tend to not want to grow up until it is too late, which works against them. Growing up in this context meaning sacrificing time, resources, and emotional support, and I don't mean it in the adult material benchmark way (House, car, children). Now this is a general problem with "creatives" who live in major cities, but the difference for blipsters is that they usually don't have access to capital byway of wealthy parents that their white counterparts do, so the downside risks is greater in general, but also in relation to dating.

2. I've listened to her routine (big mistake on my part) and she has a misguided sense of entitlement, misguided not based on my disagreement with her values, but misguided in that she (like many people, and especially Americans) has an irrational expectation of the dating market. When you want something on the market that is represented in probably 10% of the potential dating market, but you:
a) Don't have the shallow factors to put you in position to probably compete for the attention of that 10%.
b) Would consider yourself a failure if you "settled" on someone outside that 10%

You either have to create a new narrative that comes to terms with the marketplace as it is, and remake your internal concept of "settling", hope you get lucky and defy the odds, or accept being alone. I don't think there's anything wrong with the last choice, but I am aware that we are social creatures and unfortunately woman, especially in this social media age are more sensitive to social standing.
