Awww..Thank you. I'm getting progressively better Smile

As for black men...if I could find them, I would date them. Sans the ratchet ones, I'm certainly not opposed to my own kind. I did the online thing - Match.com - and only white guys approached me.Confused

At one point, I was writing a blog about it..

When you're in your mid-20's and you move to a new city, it's really difficult to find friends. I have some contacts from college - I tried to rekindle those friendships, but we're all on different playing fields now.

Half those bishes are engaged, married or have kids. I'm not and that's fine; I don't want to be. It's hard to have a "girls night" or even go for beers after work when they would rather chill with their boo. Understandable, but it sucks. 

There just something about having a black girlfriend that I feel like I'm missing. There are certain things I can't discuss with my white friends because they don't "get it". It's a lack of empathy. They have no idea.

I didn't have that growing up, so I'm attempting to find it now. 

I don't know if any of that makes sense?...


yes it does. you don't always have to explain things, and there is just this feeling w/ black friends that u don't get w/ white ones.

are you part of a sorority? if you are, maybe finding some women that are can help you out

what about church?

try meetup again.

i hope u find some friends Hug




Thank youSmile

Well, it's kind of an interesting story. Mind you, this was last fall and I no longer write the blog. I wasn't writing it about not finding the right guy per se, I was writing about my Match.com dates. I picked Match specifically because it's a paid subscription service; I figured the quality would be better than say, plentyoffish. 

It was fun for awhile - I met a lot of entertaining, very eccentric men; went to some cool restaurants, concerts, galleries, whatever..

I got stuck when I found a guy I reeeeeeally liked. He didn't take to the whole "writing a blog" thingConfused
He was a lawyer and he was pissed. 

The element of deception kind of made him mad, but get it, I would be too. Anyway...

What were you doing that was deceptive?  Where you only dating for the blog's sake?  I thought the whole purpose was to meet new ppl? I'm confused.

Back to the orginal issue--go to a church and get involved if you are religious

Go to your sorority's monthly meetings if you are/were greek

go to your professional organization meetings if they are in your area

plenty of places to meet new folks--black folks--if you really try.

Yes, I was doing it for the sake of the blog AND to meet new people. We had different expectations that weren't fully expressed when we started seeing each other. And he looked like Napoleon Dynamite. But that's neither here nor there, because I got over that. Kind of. Point is, he was pissed.
