relationships

I guess I could look this up on Reddit but every question there is answered by "it's obviously logical, why not accept it!" so maybe I can get a Black opinion here European brehs/brehettes may have the most insight? When I grew up in the 90s/00s someone calling their SO "partner" almost always...

Do they go hand in hand? Are they mutually exclusive? Are they both required? Which is more important?

Relationships aren't easy. It's hard work. Sacrifice, compromise, self-improvement, and understanding the other person's needs. Nowadays, it's all about taking and not giving. Most people like the idea of romance but when it comes to actual relationships, that's where reality hits in. If...

Are they just looking for a particular type of person of (class / status / “the look”, etc) to be friends with? Or do they not know how to utilize effort to maintain a friendship / relationship with someone?

I really pondered throwing this data out for a while. I am not into gender warring and I figured this may end up as that. However, I guess the Eboni Williams thread got me to go ahead and do it. To be clear: This is not an anti-IR thread. If someone is happy with a White man or woman, good for...

So I did one of my data blitzes again, maybe too much ham and greens. I will keep the beginning short and give details at the end after the conclusion and graphs, skip to the bolded if you have no patience. This was inspired by two main things: 1. The Pew study in 2017 that claimed high (I...

This question is obviously for people who’re in relationships with other black people. What y’all doing if you see your other half liking and following pages dedicated to Brading/Pawging?

This the kinda time y’all on now? :mjlol: “Come get this shrimp” :damn:

How long were y'all together before you moved in together? What made you realize that it was time? I ask bc my older sister is temporarily living with me and my girl. She been with this dude for about 7 months. He's cool and respectful to her so I have no problem with him. She told me yesterday...

Unless you date another nerdy girl. I never understood this "Black women are the only race attracted to thugs or cool guys" thing. Or that non-Black women just easily fall into their hands by being themselves. If you're awkward, dusty, misogynistic etc. you'll be repellent to women of any race...

Is it social media? Feminism? Or have they always been this way and we're just getting more exposure to it?? :lupe:

:gucci: One thing I notice about Coli nikkas is how many of y'all tend to want women who have no interest in you and then get mad when it was already obvious and known that those women in question didn't want you or like you.. While ignoreing the women who had an interest in you but because of...

There is no benefit for a man to get married. I've been saying this for years. As a result, I've been called an "incel", "bitter" & a "woman hater". Why do people hate other people who think independently and do what's in THEIR best interest and not some woman's? Are the mad because they don't...

While I can already tell this nutty bimbo is a chore to be around and all around insufferable based on her mini rant here, I agree with her somewhat. I've basically accepted that I'll be single forever because I refuse to be in a transactional relationship where I'm some chick's retirement plan...

:blessed:

If not, why are you withholding that information? :jbhmm: In general, do you feel partners in a relationship should know about each other's earning? :jbhmm: What are the upsides/downsides of knowing each other's pay while together? Discuss :mjgrin:
