I find this email very true. Just like we are not all perfect as women neither are men and in relationships, both people have to compromise at some point especially if you really care for that person. Ladies what are your thoughts on this email? Do you think that this is true and Why?
Good Black Men are indeed all around us. We pass them on the streets, in
the
malls, and at work. Most we can't see because we don't know what a good
man
really looks like. He usually isn't flashy enough or rich enough to turn
our
heads. He might not wear a suit or push a Lexus. He might not have a
body
like Tyson with a Denzel face. But, as you mature, you realize it's
better
to find someone who's got your back rather than someone who turns your
head.
A good man doesn't agree wholeheartedly with everything you say. He
doesn't
just tell you what you want to hear and do the opposite. He doesn't
declare
how sensitive, sweet, caring, sincere, etc. he is (he won't have to
because
it shows). He has his own opinions and yours may clash, but he doesn't
have
to degrade you to prove he's right. He even admits at times to being
wrong,
especially if you are willing to do the same. A good man is not going to
meet every item on your checklist. He is human with frailties and faults
mixed in with all of his wonderful, strong attributes. He needs your
love
and respect. He needs to feel that you don't live to catch him doing
something wrong so you can declare, "Aha! I knew you were a dog!" A good
man
isn't insecure about his woman having great achievements. In fact, he is
her
number one supporter and becomes disappointed with her when she begins
to
lose herself, especially for the sake of not hurting his feelings, or
only
wanting to make him happy. His happiness comes with seeing her excel in
her
dreams and accomplishing her goals. For as she excels and is exalted, a
good
woman will bring her good man right along with her. A good man doesn't
necessarily give you a huge birthday or Valentine's gift. He shows his
love
in the ways that are comfortable to him. Don't judge him by TV
standards. No
one is really living a fairy tale. You'll miss out on your own fairy
tale by
buying into the myth that our men are no good. It's just not true. A
good
black man is a man of his word. He says what he means and means what he
says. His word is his bond. He never leaves you wondering if he is going
to
call or show up - he is dependable. A good black man has a love and a
heart
for God (Jesus). As his relationship and love with and for God grows so
will
his relationship and love with and for you grow... Our beautiful black
men
we salute you, appreciate you and thank you for who you are and all
you've
done. Pass this along to some of the Good Black Men you know and a few
women
that need to read it ... So that they can recognize a good black man.
