Yes. They were. I speak from experience.
I pull black girls too (you've seen what I look like)...but they are a lot less realistic when it comes to the things they demand from men. I'll tell you straight up,
men's actions are primarily driven by their desire to attain what they consider to be great women. That criteria differs between man to man. Some have the trophy look as their main priority, others have domestic-ability, and others want a girl thats career driven with whom they can build an empire with etc.. Each factor has a weight so to speak, but at the root...as pathetic as it may sound most of our actions come down to us wanting woma(e)n. The nice car, the nice job title, the six figures, the nice clothing, the jewelry, the nice crib, the popularity etc etc etc. After all, what is the point of making so much money when you have nobody to share it with? That's just depressing.
Now back to the original point (and I'm bolding this part because it is VERY important). I've noticed most black women are not ready to build with your regular square past the age of like 22. If youre above the age of 22 and dont have a your own place, your own crib, and some of the things that I mentioned in the 2nd last sentence of the previous paragraph most black girls ain't checking for you and you know it. Just look at that depression thread from a few days ago. This is why so many of them prefer to date older men which to me has always been a red flag. If you are open to dating older men sure, but to exclusively do it? It's narcissistic in my opinion considering that many of these same girls are your average Junior religious studies major at york university with a 2.6 GPA working in retail part time with student loans up the ass. So who are they to flare their nose at somebody going through something similar?
The problem with this is it leads men to engage in stupid activities such as fraud/scams, drug dealing, get rich quick schemes, robbery etc. so they can have the money they need to project a certain image and attract the black women they covet so much. Again, tell me I'm lying . It gets to a point where dudes will engage in criminal activity to get money that they could use to build long term wealth by buying capital assets and shyt...but would rather buy materialistic things and short term/depreciating assets that will go out of style instead. They end up dead or in jail realizing how stupid they were as all the girls and fake friends evade. Thats the vicious cycle were looking at.
Meanwhile, the dude who was on the straight and narrow and worked hard through countless droughts, rejections and managed to save money and eventually reach his zenith has now developed a bitterness. He has reached a point where he cant trust the motivations of women because he thinks to himself, this girl is checking for me right now, but I'm sure if it was 5 years ago and rolled her neck at me and fukked with the dopeboy instead. He then shares his wealth with a woman of another race, moves out the neighborhood and dissociates with other blacks except his close friends and the wealth of the black community marginally decreases accordingly.
