Hey u~
I am sure everyone reading this blog has watched or attempted to watch the latest Chris Rock stand up show. He expressed his views on interracial dating and he said: Black women get upset about black men dating white woman....all black men have done is exercised their options...then he said the real reason black women get angry is because they are not attracted to white men.. so they cant exercise their option.. they will sleep with "pretty white boys" but black women are not attracted to white men in general.
For the past few weeks I have been pursued by someone other than a IBM. For those who are not familiar with IBM, it means, intelligent Black man. After several failed attempts at dating, I decided to broaden my options and see what this man is about. I can honestly say that I am having the time of my life. Everything is just different with him. He provide me with the time and attention I desire and is not afraid to talk and ask questions.
This post is not to bash black men, I love brothas but why does it take for me to go outside of my race to feel appreciated? Not just appreciated because I helped him with this or because I did that, but appreciated because I am a woman and a good person. With this situation there is never a "ass, gas or cash" concept, lets go half on lunch, take me to Wal-Mart, I need, I need, I need. He doesn't make me feel I owe him something because he took me to dinner. My cousin said it best: I wanna be with a black man, I really do. Its just Black men makes us feel so insecure. I am sorry fellas, but a lot of times, its like that.
I agree with Chris Rock, we sistas need to broaden our options a little bit. Please don't mistake this as desperation. Sometimes Black folks consider a woman dating outside of her race as desperation. I am not desperate, its just that everyone deserves to be loved. No matter what color they are. I dedicate this post to the brothers reading this in the event that they will step their game up. I know all of you all aren't like this but those who are are making you look bad.
