Why would the truth be damning? Are you the type who prefers to hear comforting lies than the harsh truth?
As men we have a choice in life. We can be impulsive and chase short term satisfaction OR we can sacrifice early on for long term success later. I chose the latter. Both are a risk and not guaranteed to succeed. But I was content with my choice.
You sound like you made this choice yourself without knowing it. And your bet didn't work out. Hence why you got a problem with what I'm saying. There's a reason none of ya'll have actually refuted my points. All yall have done is engage in ad-hominem attacks and shaming tactics. Typically the sign of someone who knows their wrong but catches feelings and thus can't admit the truth to themselves.
I have my own kids, never been a step dad. Never even moved in with a woman with kids or took one seriously because I know I wouldn’t step up. So first off, you’re wrong. But that doesn’t make me a dikkhead who sees all men who raise someone’s kid as a mark. And y’all don’t either. Just Russ. And that’s telling….
You just said y’all see yourselves in him. And y’all on some “man if that was me I’d never……” And it’s fueling these feelings in y’all.
But it doesn’t match up. So I’ll ask again… How many black men, who are famous, have black girlfriends or wives? How many of those women had children previously? Do you even care to see what other black couples have kids from other relationships? Are you this mad about those relationships? No.
How many women that date famous men dress sexy, shake their ass in their own music videos, take modeling pics in bathing suits? Are you this mad about those women? No.
And let’s not even get into y’all own people shaking ass, taking pics and having kids, but they ain’t famous so you never speak to them or tell them nobody should date them….
So once again, it’s weird cause y’all so focused on Russ, cause y’all living vicariously through Russ. And others are simply saying, they look happy, What’s the problem? And y’all just stick to “she got a baby and she dancing” but ignore the other women doing it.
