Marriage would be nice but right now I'm just trying to secure a man boo, and that's been hell on wheels. The current dating situation out there will make anyone who is serious about finding someone, scream!!! I'm not trying to dismiss what you are saying...........too often women DO have an unrealistic view of marriage but before we can get to marriage we need a man and as it stands, finding the right one is a serious challenge and that's the frustrating part. I recently cut off a guy who was playing mind games and you wouldn't believe the number of guys who are over 30 trying to play mind games, be playas etc. I'm sure you wouldn't hear as many complaints if sistas were coming into contact with quality men but they just aren't. Let me be the comic relief here and tell you the kind of men I come into contact with:
Trey appears to be a nice man, approaches you in a nice manner and later on you find out he has four kids with four baby mamas and he is "self employed"..............we all know the majority of the time, self employed means unemployed. And sure enough you find out he is unemployed!
Andre is a doctor and got his stuff together but he is arrogant and knows he's in demand cause lets face it, an educated brotha with a job, has lots of power. If you ain't puttin' out he makes you get out. And trust me, I don't mind steppin cause you ain't getting my goods that easy.

Donnie is a nice brotha but you find out he's been to prison for manslaughter and that just doesn't sit too easy.
Brighton, nice white guy, he's single, you're attracted to him but he's not into black chics............hey to that.
Chung Lee, cute and all, nice, educated, nice job, single but you know he ain't feelin black women but you gone try to see if you can spark his interest only to find out he's only into white women or Asian women.
I know those were extreme examples but really this is the crap we single ladies put up with. It'd be cool if I could just secure the man but as it stands that hasn't happened. Yep another lonely Valentines Day............LOL!
