    Three of my friends, two are engineers and the other owns a landscape business all have non-black girlfriends.. Have nice houses and drive nice cars but out of the five years i known and grow up with them i NEVER saw them around black women unless it was family members.. I remember we all went out for a drink and brought up Tyra Banks being hot and they said, they like Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Aniston, Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Salma Hayek. Etc

  • Why won't my bf ask me to marry him??? Part 2.?

    We have been together for 4 yrs. In the 1st 6mth's he wanted too(didn't actually have a ring just talked about it a lot) and I didn't cause it was to fast. We have a wonderful relationship. He has taken my son in as his own. We have lived together for 3.5 years. We do almost everything together. When he goes away on trips, like hunting/camping and I ask him questions about it, he automatically resorts to "I don't trust him" and says that is why we are at a stand still. The thing is that I do trust him, I am slightly insecure and a little nosy so I ask questions about their plans, etc. isn't that normal of someone who cares? I think it's an excuse, I don't believe he thinks that. I don't know what to do...I feel used and I am starting to think that he is waiting for someone better. He's really good to me and my son, I hope that's not the case. I am tired of the embarrassment when asked "why hasn't he married you yet?"...now I am asking myself that question. The whole "why buy the cow when the milk is free" is haunting me. I am to afraid to change anything because he is stubborn (so am I) and I am afraid he will just let me go because he will think that I don't want him, it seems too risky. I love the idea of getting away for the weekend, but I already did that, he always misses me alot (calls, texts, etc) right now he is away hunting and he calls and texts me. I usually text him but I really haven't this time cause I don't want to be viewed as none trusting. I'm hurt and I don't know how to get what I want...and if I don't get that I don't think my relationship will stay together since the feeling of insecurity grows inside of me with time :( I don't want to mess this up but I don't want to be just a gf either.

  • I told him I did not think he loves me, so I just wanted to be friends,?

    I told him I wanted to be friends because I did not think he loves or cares for me, I told him I wanted to still be cool you know every now and then speaking, or texting, but he said no. He removed me from all online social networks and would not reply to any of my calls or texts. I called him a lot after freaking out because I still cared for him and wanted to remain in contact with him, he came very upset and told me that I don’t mean a thing to him( I don’t want to believe that, after 1 year and 7 months of dating) and that I was crazy and need help ( I don’t want to believe that, after 1 year and 7 months of dating) I was very, very, very good to him... I just want to know why would somebody say that to someone that he maintain such a close friendship with for so long, the just erase them and not want to be coo, ok or anything with that person? He was good to me also... it has been about 15 days since I called, and text and sent him what I then called my last email saying... I just wanted to be friends what was the harm in that and that he hurt me, and no good would come of him not treating people right. I told him in the email I was here if he need and I have not contacted him again. Thing is I really care for him and I can not stand not being able to communicate with him at all. I’m not asking for a girlfriend boyfriend thing I just don’t understand why we cant still be friendly. I want to know should I wait a month or so to reach out, and if so what do I say. I’m not mad at him, and I don’t want him to be mad at me. Should I just leave him alone as he asked? We have been through this before and some how we always started to speak again but this time feels different somehow. I remember when he told me we would always have something special... I don’t see how a few phone calls and texts should make that change. I don’t understand... I know he said we cant be friends because we have been intimate, and had emotions.. but I feel that’s the exact reason we should be... because we do(did) at one time or another share so much how could we not. When should I try to say something to him, if at all? If so what should I say to open the lines of communication? I cant seem to get over him? I sit and wish and wonder.... if he thinks of me, if he thinks he said too much that he cant contact me. Is it possible that he really did not care after all that time, and what he said 15 days ago was what he really felt. Any advise is REALLY appreciated.

By Josey Vogels

Dear Josey,

I’m really into this guy and we’ve been friends for almost a year. But in the last while, I feel like he’s been avoiding me. When I talk to him, he never looks at me. When I need his help, he just says he doesn’t understand. I feel like he’s afraid of me. Whenever I sit somewhere, he sits somewhere else. I figure he found out that I like him, and got scared. But now I just want to be friends again. How should I deal?

Friendly Advice?

Dear Friendly,

Sounds like you might be right. If you can get him to look at you over coffee at the same table for at least a few minutes, I’d talk to him about it. Tell him you feel like he’s been avoiding you lately and you were just wondering why. If you’re lucky, he’ll admit the truth, but if he’s like most guys, he won’t be able to tell you and then you’ll have to say it for him. Tell him you’ve really enjoyed your friendship and there was a part of you that thought it could be more, but that you understand if it can’t. Tell him it’s more important that you remain friends. Then you’ll have to put up with his awkwardness around you for the next while until you can prove to him sufficiently that you really have no other intention than to be friends. This requires that you really do have no other intention than to be friends and aren’t thinking in the back of your mind somewhere that “I’ll be such a good friend to him that he will eventually want to go out with me.’’ If you honestly believe you can do that, great. Now go talk to him.
