Have you seen this person?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Yesterday a group of friends and I went out for lunch, catching up on each other’s weeks and what was still to come the following week. This was a coed group of people, some of whom know each other well and some of whom are new in our social circle.
One of my girlfriends suddenly asked, as if it had just popped into her head, “Where’s Christie?”
“Christie is dating Jordan,” someone announced, which really translates as “Christie has chosen to spend seven out of seven days a week with her boyfriend and has literally forgotten about the rest of the world she used to live in. She’s planning hip-attachment surgery as soon as she and Jordan can raise the money to do so.”
Sigh. It’s the disappearing act some people pull when they start dating. What’s so unfortunate about it is that Jordan is actually a part of our group. It’s not as if he’s some guy she just recently met who has to go through the awkwardness of meeting us! He’s already in!
Naturally, if you go from single to being in a relationship, some of your priorities are going to shift. Maybe your Saturday nights have been reassigned to your new beau. And maybe one of your weeknights, too. But there are five other nights (plus weekends!) in your schedule! Is a couple hours a week too much to ask for friends who have been there for you?
And it’s not just women who act this way. My friend James and his girlfriend (also both within our social circle) have fallen off the face of the earth since they became exclusive almost three months ago. No phone calls, no showing up for our regular nights, etc. Just one appearance last week for the first time in months.
Do you have friends who disappear once they start seriously dating someone? Have you ever been this person? When did you realize that a healthy dating relationship can also balance with healthy friendships?
How do you cope with friends who are MIA because of their dating choices? Do you welcome them back when they break up and realize the error of their ways? Or do you rationalize that you’re not going to waste time on someone who’s not putting effort into a friendship?

Happy Monday All, I’m bummed about my Pats. I didn’t win my office square game either. But had fun at the Super Bowl parties I attended.
Well, my theory on serious relationships is that this person could potentially be the one you bear children with and spend the rest of your life with. If that happens that person will be the most important person in your life and should therefore be a priority.
You should definitely find balance, because if it doesn’t work out with said person, you’re gonna need your friends to help you thru it. Nothing worse than trying to get back out there and have no one return your calls. LOL

Good Morning
I guess everyone is drifting in late due to the Superbowl. As far as the topic goes, I guess it’s more understandable for a new couple to do a disappearing act for a few weeks. I mean, it’s all new and your endorphins are flowing so naturally you want to keep riding that wave (no pun intended) while the getting is good. However, that does wind down and things resort back to a normalcy. It may not be exactly how it was before the singledom. I still think each part of the couple should hang out with their friends alone, collectively, and also spend time together.
Yes, I’ve had friends that did this and I myself have also been that person. I welcome my friends back, but not w/o cracking a few jokes about being back in society. lol The only time I would have an issue is if they never did come back around. Then to me, I would have to assume our said ‘friendship’ wasn’t that at all but merely something to do in the meantime of finding a man.

All I can say ‘bout the game is…it was a good one.
And fortunately, my penchance for picking underdogs…well let’s just say, I can wait to file my taxes and still get some bills paid!
HA!
But, I must say, Bill Belicheck is a Dizzick! With one second left, having lost the SuperBowl, you leave your team on the field and sprint to the locker room? What?
Did anyone else notice that they were itching to rip Moss for that very thing…..? Yet Belicheck leaves, and no one says a word….

Dan, they’re ripping Bellichick right now on Mike and Mike for leaving. That superbowl sucked so bad. A commercial between every 2 plays, the giants winning and now I’ve got to wait for the OAKLAND RAIDERS to start their championship season later this year.
Time is limited. When you meet someone new they consume some of that time. Plus, alot of times people are looking for reasons to stop being a regular in groups, especially as you get older. While you should always keep your friends at some point hanging out with them EVERYDAY grows old. You have to keep expanding your circle to stay fresh. Try new hobbies, meet new people. Grow, expand.

IMO there is nothing ill about wanting to spend time away from the multitude to get to know your new interest. I have done it and I have friends that have done it. For most people, at least those that I know and associate with, there are only a few days that you set aside for socializing because you actually have an productive life (career, family, etc.) that you have to devote your time to. Does not it only make sense to use those free days to get to know the new someone? If they turn out to be a keeper then you intermingle the old and the new.
My friend Lacy has the same annoyance that you have Bella. She always makes a big deal when one of us pulls away from the “group” to spend time with our S/O. Hell I am married. I am supposed to spend time with my husband and climbing into bed with him every night is not counted in lieu of quality time spent.
Friends should understand.

Seemed to me that the clocked ticked to zero and then reset. Everyone was on the field celebrating and shaking hands. The next thing you know they’re making folks go back to the sideline. I have my Patriot blinders on, but I don’t think it was intentional. The Giant fans at the Super Bowl party I was at were already bumping and grinding when the DJ had to turn the music off to get back to the game and the final second. LOL

In my experience, it seems like women take this much more personal than men do. A typical guy who severely decreases time with the fellas because of a relationship will probably experience some good-natured ribbing, including (but not limited to) insults containing some variation of the term “whipped”, but his relationship status with the rest of the group won’t change. Women, on the other hand, seem to take this as a personal affront, and might even feel the need to dead the relationship entirely. Again, this is just my own opinion, and I guess it has to do with the difference dynamics permeating male and female relationships

On topic:
Yes, your friends don’t come around like they used to when they are in relationships, neither do you.
Especially, when it’s so new that everything she does is cute, your heart is aflutter, and all you want to do at the end of a day, is talk to her.
There’s nothing wrong with that, I like that time. I even like the time right after it…when it’s “why do you call me all the time, dizzam it! I need air!” Or my favorite, “What happened to the phone calls and text messages, you’re getting distant, Dan. What’s up?”
Not that you try to, but in every relationship (romantic/friendly) you walk a fine line between being around and being a nuisance. I know people that do not know the difference. And I try not to be one of them.
Sorry about the long post, but..dizzam that. I ain’t!
Take that, take that!

Good Morning ALL!!
DYOUNG…I agree
I agree. Women have a real bad habit of doing this. Men usually maintain their social life. While some women make sure their life REVOLVES around a man.
It’s said…but it becomes their EVERYTHING and only thing. It’s like they share the same set of lungs. Not to mention it’s very unhealthy and you lose a sense of self. You are no longer the same person you were…you stop doing things you use to do. But at the same time I feel…these women NEVER did have a good sense of self. So she had issues before she came to the table. Now everything he likes/does are all now favorites for YOU. A good man can be a great addition to you. But he does not VALIDATE you. There is a healthy BALANCE!!!

@Blow Me
Good morning,
I can completely understand where you are coming from, yet I have a problem with your conclusion.
To assume that because men and women are spending a lot of time together, seperate and apart from some of the other people in their lives, does not mean, that one loses a sense of self.
No doubt it happens, but there are at least two things in play that someone on the outside of that relationship may not see.
1) The realationship could be one where each party, while together, helps bring out the individual. That is, a supportive, nuturing relationship with no judgement. Only affirmations and affectations, and agreements to disagree with respect to each others opinions. That sometimes helps less confident people “find their own voice” when they feel supported in doing so.
2) And who’s to say that the woman or man is not spending time with other couples as opposed to being “all in love, in a world of their own”. Couples go out with other couples. So if you’re single, sometimes you might just be SOL…
NBF Just saying

There’s nothing with decreasing friend time; just a problem with eliminating it.
If I had a dime for every time a friend went off the deep end with a woman and then found his way to the flock after - I’d have enough cash for a *Super Bowl * ticket!
What so many fail to realize is: a little absence makes the heart grow fonder. The longing part is a good thing and over-saturation ruins things. If a couple gets marries, they’ll know the latter and how. Why rush it?

Raqi…I don’t think that’s an issue. But it wavers a fine line between…healthy and unhealthy….EVERYTHING you do should not be breathed, eat or $hitted through this one person. Feeling like this ONE person is your life line…is/should be a SCREAMING alarm for an UNHEALTHY relationship. Knowing and respecting that this person needs to have space to do other things in their life they enjoy…is a HEALTHY relationship. There should be 2 SETS of lives that come together in one relationship….

Relationship DOES not equal a damn CULT. It is only healthy to have different outlets SOCIALLY in a relationship.

@BLOW ME
i think you might have misunderstood my first post. what i was trying to convey was the fact that with a typical group of guys, a guy could be in a relationship and basically fall off the face of the earth for months, years even, but if and when he decides to rejoin the group, he’ll typically be received with open arms. on the other hand, if a women did the same thing with her group of girls, after like a two months they would be ready to cut her out for good.
again, i’m speaking in general terms here, and this is just based on things i’ve seen

cosign with Raqi The spinsters or the ones with no SO are the ones who whine.When u have a new flame, its only proper that u spend more quality time with them and less with ur friends.U are exploring a potential serious relationship and u want to give it everything u got in case it becomes more serious.Sounds logical to me. Friends spoil relationships for other friends in a majority of cases,anyway! Hey SexyC Is that u canoodling with ur SO on the pics.Sorry i could not pass thru, but our Superbowl party was off da chain, with a mixture of nice ladies and gents.SexxyL, i should have invited u had i known it was just going to be u.I got a hangover,drank too much gin.

Ah, Blow Me, the tactics of an unskilled debator….
Like I said, I don’t disagree with your assessments, just the conclusion. I, like most here, would agree that it takes two whole people to make a relationship work. My point is that sometimes, people don’t come into a relationship whole. Sometimes they need to rely on the strength of their partner. And sometimes, that helps them find their own strength.
In saying that, I wasn’t referring to myself as the “less than whole person”. In most of my relationships, I tend to be the dominant personality, whether by coincidence or design.
And if you knew why they call me Dan, whipped, would never be a characteristic applied to me. At least in the passive tense, if you catch my meaning….
And I’ll be 30 in a few weeks, so I’ve given up blog fighting, and most other rancorous activity…I have neither time, nor paitence, to suffer fools (not referring to you or anyone else, general statement).

Why does every situation has to be taken to the extreme?
Who said any thing about this person being one’s everything? I didn’t get that from Bella’s entry.
I feel that it is absolutely normal to spend time with a new interest away from others. You are getting to know this person. Every new person should not be invited into your circle of friends upon meeting. You get to know them first.
And like I said when did spending time with a new person not qualify as having a social life. Socializing is what you are doing. It just may be with someone that you don’t normally do it with.
And besides isn’t one just as bad as the other. Friends that get upset because you are not spending time with them? Who needs to get a life in that situation?

Mornin Sucka’s! -Directed at all Pats fans… how did they lose??? Brady 48 pass attempts, Moss only 5 catches and Maroney only 14 carries!!! = Loss of the century.
On Topic: This is always comical to see. Folks gettin so caught up in each other. The funny part is that I’ve got a few homeboys like this; sit up under shorty 24/7 and the crazy thing they argue more than Most! Like how can she be mad at him if he came home 2hrs late? This dude is a ghost, all he does is sit up under her and she still has reason to scream on him… this is why I’m single. My logic would not allow me to listen to that type of stuff, if we’re 2gether all day every day why are you questioning me about the only 2hrs we were not 2gether? Let me Live!

good morning, all.:) i’m sure this has been said already but…there’s nothing wrong w/an incubation period for a new couple. it’s healthy and necessary. no use of everybody being all up in it, especially in the beginning. it’s a good thing to spend a lot of time together and get a feel for each other before presenting the relationship to friends. the dynamics of frienships always change when one acquires a mate. that’s just the way it is. most of my girls are married and i never get into it w/them about them not spending time w/me like they used to. things have changed. a true frienship grows with circumstances.

“Friends” that complain about their friend spending all their free time with a new love is petty and pure jealousy. Knowing good and well they would be the first one to disappear if someone came along to monopolize their time! If they are truly “Friends” they would be understanding and HAPPY for their friend to have found someone special.

My first impression is that this is a rather juvenile topic, as in “don’t you still see each other in 3rd period every day”, but hey. I guess that’s not necessarily so.
I can’t imagine that guys take much issue with a woman who had professional and volunteering obligations and opportunities, a circle of friends to maintain, etc. Now, I’m well familiar with arch-conservative Christian (read: Southern Baptist, don’t get me started please) male attitudes that require and yes, enforce subservience, and that certainly cost a woman most or all independence, but all you have to do to avoid that is avoid Southern Baptists. At least, don’t marry one.
Otherwise, it seems to me that the ones who assert the female independence requirements are all females — the same ones that assert that relationships exert the opposite influence to too much of a degree. It doesn’t swing both ways — guys who become scarce will get a considerable negative reaction.
I mean, what would be the problem? If she’s out hitting up other men, or having other interests that negate her interest in you all that much, what have you really lost when the loss comes to light?

I think it’s a natural process to spend alot of time with a new love interest. No, you shouldn’t forsake your friends entirely, justh have to find the right balance. There’s a learning curve to a new relationship and old friends shouldn’t factor in it in the very beginning, if at all!

We have 2 different stance on this subject which is fine. I think ppl get caught up in their emotions…and can’t see the trees from the forest. lmao!
Dan I get what you are saying…
And I quote:
EVERYTHING you do should not be breathed, eat or $hitted through this one person.
I can see why ALOT of relationships are FAILING now! smh
Ragi I don’t think anyone is taking it to the extreme….You need to re-read bELLA’S post as well. We are talking about PAST the newness stage. You’re entire relationship should not consist on CONSTANTLY being the person shadow the whole entire relationship. That’s the stance I am taking. CLINGNESS is annoying on both sides. BREATHING room periodically is healthy. You life lines should not be tied to your SO…
BOTTOM LINE: Don’t stop doing things that you enjoyed doing. Prior to the relationship. Talking to you mom….(yeah I know it happens lol) Having drinks occasionally with your friends. Keep you IDENTITY while you are enjoying the relationship…Again…Relationship does not equal CULT!!!!

dyoung - Good post. Welcome. I think you are right on. I think the reason some women take it as a personal affront is because that behavior is a blow to the “sisterhood.” Men say the mantra “bros before h0es” but some women are the ones that really believe that adage. In theory, your girls are gonna be there after that bro leaves you dusted and disgusted. That’s why I stress balance tho. We lost one girlfriend to a guy who she was with for 10 years! However, they ended up breaking up. Too much time had passed us by when she was trying to kick it all hard again!

Perhaps I do have a talent for scouting the worst chics out there. But I’ve been involved with a a few very nice easy going types in the past who are not at all like the g.f’s of my homie’s. But even they would have me thinkin like: dam when is the last time I’ve been home? We may chill 2-3 days straight and soon as I get back home, my phone rings and she’s like: when you commin over? I just sit there with the blank… Now there was not much arguing and they always respected my homeboys nights out/ fight parties/ watchin games… but when I would say: “I just left from over there… I got some things to do.” they would come back w/: you aint doing shyt! Which they were right most of the time, but man it felt good to just chill alone to hear myself think.

I’ve got no problem with a friend of mine (male or female) running off to spend time with their SO. I go on living my life doing my thing. My beef arises when that person calls me saying: “We haven’t gotten together in awhile, let’s do something.” I usually respond sure, yet when I throw a date out there, I’m always met with “I can’t because me and (insert SO’s name) are doing something that day.” Its like the friendship becomes a matter of convenience…convenience for them. My resolution for ‘08 is to evaluate all the people I associate with (personal & business) and look at what I bring to the table and what they bring to the table. Doesn’t add up, well been nice knowing you.

@900
Cosign. Exactly.
(Disclaimer, not applicable to all men, not attributable to all women).
Sometimes, even when you’re with the one you love (I miss Luther), you need that space. It’s not that we men don’t like being around, but sometimes, hanging with the homies or just dolo is a relaxing break. Like other misunderstandings between the sexes: sometimes, my feelings have nothing to do with my feelings about you. Sometimes a random “you look nice” is just you look nice. And sometimes “I’m hanging with the fellas tonite” is just that.
Past pain can dictate future fights, we know this. But I tend to not assume that any dismissal of my advances has anything to do with me (“I don’t have a problem with self-confidence….have you seen me? — Father Harvey).
And in a lot of ways, what 900 is saying relates to what Bella’s topic is, an innate insecurity, that informs our opinion that one thing is related to another. i.e. “I haven’t spoken to you in a couple of days, you must not love me anymore.”
That statement is a Red Flag. Whether said in jest or in seriousness, the hearer of those words should run for the hills. That phrase is a sign of things to come.

Yall are getting uptight already…
7 Types of Sex
The 1st kind of sex is called: Smurf Sex This kind of sex happens when you first meet someone and you both have sex until you are blue in the face.
he 2nd kind of sex is called: Kitchen Sex. This is when you have been with your partner for a short time and you are so horny you will have sex anywhere, even in the kitchen.
The 3rd kind of sex is called: Bedroom Sex. This is when you have been with your partner for a long time. Your sex has gotten routine and you usually have sex only in your bedroom.
The 4th kind of sex is called: Hallway Sex. This is when you have been with your partner for too long. When you pass each other in the hallway you both say ‘screw you.
The 5th kind of sex is called: Religious Sex. This is when you get Nun in the morning, Nun in the afternoon and Nun at night. (Very Popular)
he 6th kind is called Courtroom Sex. This is when you cannot stand your wife any more. She takes you to court and screws you in front of everyone.
And Last, but not least, the 7th kind of sex is called Social Security Sex. This when you get a little each month, but not enough to live on.

1: ““Christie is dating Jordan,” someone announced, which really translates as “Christie has chosen to spend seven out of seven days a week with her boyfriend and has literally forgotten about the rest of the world she used to live in. She’s planning hip-attachment surgery as soon as she and Jordan can raise the money to do so.””Now if this friend has made herself invisible where is this info coming from? Who is knows that they are spending “every waking moment” together? Did you notice that she said “translates as”? Who’s doing the translating?
2: ”Sigh. It’s the disappearing act some people pull when they start dating. What’s so unfortunate about it is that Jordan is actually a part of our group. It’s not as if he’s some guy she just recently met who has to go through the awkwardness of meeting us! He’s already in!”Complaining about them chosing to be together away from the rest??? They have that right. It is obvious that they went from being friends to being more than friends and those have chosen to separate their new found relationship from they formerly had.
I have one of these complaining friends. The friend that is normally without a relationship and don’t really take serious the ones that she does venture into. The friend that feels that the friendship time together should be superior to all other. And yes she tends to find fault when that sister circle gets interrupted from time to time.

Blog Idea - Maybe Monday’s should serve as a “weekend roundup” topics. Since this is a dating blog most of us should “be about it” instead of just “talking about it.” Mondays could serve as the adventures we had in the dating world, the people we met, the experiences we had. I think we could learn a lot from each other and how the dating world really is out there. It seems that some of y’all feel that Bella’s topics don’t always represent what is really happening out there.

Ol’ girl ain’t getting her way here, so in her mind she’s “gon’ do some’n”. So now it’s turning off the TV. Next it’ll be getting up in your man’s face. After that it’ll be laying hands on your man. After that it’s Battle Royale at the crib and here come the cops and Eyewitness News.

Now before the jocularity and sarcasm of these statements, incite a riot, let me say..
A number of men on this blog (among those of us that have commented in the negative) have grown up with certain ideals of what being a man is, what pimpin is, and what being a husband/father is.
Our challenge in life is to mesh these ideals together for the new millinieum. So that the smoothness of pimp, the calm responsibility of the father, and the general strong nature of a man, is found in ourselves.
That said, the comments here (and correct me if I’m wrong, anyone) are tinged with the idea that without the aforementioned foundation, and the true knowledge it entails, our young men (and by consequence) our young women are being lost.

Why does your posts always seem like you’re so lonely? I don’t have anyone either, well came out of something recently and sometimes I’m lonely but I try to shake it off and get my psyche back in check. Why put out there you watched the game alone? If you do make it a great event. You seem desperate. I believe a week or so ago, different posters were stating who they thought would be compatible as far as pairing the bloggers and at the end of the day, you posted (paraphrasing) no one paired you with anyone, guess I’m too old and then threw in the “lol.” I think you meant it. If you horny, feeling empty or 1/2 (without another), sad or whatever the case, deal with it and keep rolling. Why would someone pair you up with someone else when, according to the laws of nature, younger people are naturally suited and better for one another? Not always the case but more than likely. Not to say you can’t hook up with a young but 25 female would be more capitable with a 25 year old male than a 47 year old female. Ease up girl.

WOW Lurker, I’m not lonely. I’m having a good time w/life right about now. I didn’t think I was coming across as lonely and definitely not as desperate. I’ve often posted that I get attention from a lot of men, just not the ones that want to build a relationship. I’m asked out constantly, but don’t want to go with those that are asking. I posted that I watched the game alone to let the WLBs know that I posted. They know I know nothing about football, but had it on in the background while cooking dinner and listening to music. Curious, where do you pick up lonely by doing that. I had a great Sunday. Sure, I’ve posted that I’ve been horny on 2 occasions just because I’m real and was in a crappy mood. When asked why I was in a crappy mood I responded honestly.
And for the record, as I have posted many times here, I am so so happy w/myself. I’m somewhat surprised you feel that way. Anyway, I try to come across this blog with a sense of humor. Desperate = naw baby!

i am not saying “saying nikkaz aint s&%” Dan. i am saying that you all have mastered Adamitis - you know point the finger at the woman IAM gave you in the beginning.
but its a world theme… no accountability. as women we are just as guilty.
brian nichols has us paying for him to be defended for a crime we all know he did.. its on video tape. van der sloot says he didnt do it and yet he is on tape describing how ‘it’ went down. no one is man enough (or woman for that matter) to own up to what fault they play in mistakes that they make and are adopted as the norm by society.
i think there is something seriously disjointed in the world when two intelligent, good human beings from similar backgrounds cant come together and procreate and successfully maintain a healthy relationship and pull off raising the result of their intimacy.
loneliness is drowning in the ‘not quite, the not yet or the not at all’ masses with not a boat nor a thrown line in sight.
and Lurker if you want someone to pick on, here i am cause i will tell you i am lonely. arent we all?? hence myspace, secondlife, even this blog…. it all reeks of desperation on some level for something, as does any addiction, co-dependency and other self-abuse.

Hey guys..I am late due to a root canal (and yes I am high on pain killers)…but GO GIANTS!!!! Yes yes yes…haters suck it up and shut it up! LOL
On topic: I have had friends who became MIA after getting with a dude. Of course when it ended and they came back trying to kick it like they never left I gave them hell! Do use me when you are lonely but as soon as you get a man you give me your azz to kiss! I can and will simply return the favor when your boo is no longer your boo! Guess that booty crack don’t taste so good huh? Nobody told you to be up his azz! LOL When I got into relationships I never kicked my friends to the side where they had to call me and leave me voicemails asking where have I been. I am still the same person. I do not believe in spending all time outside of work with a guy. I and he had a life before we met…so it should not reveole around each other. I mean…give me time to miss you dude. If I see a dude too much its like…”ugh, you again! Don’t you have something to do or somewhere to go?” JMO!!!

@DasV
Chillax daling…
It’ll never be that serious (at least with me).
Among the many lessons I was fortunate enough to be taught in this life is the phrase “a man of [his] word.” Now I always took that to mean that to be less than that, was to be less than a man. That said, part of being an honorable man is owning up to ones mistakes. Without enumerating them fully, I think I’ve done that in my life, tried to correct my errors, and I am trying to not commit to the same faults again and again (the definition of insanity).
But babygirl, lonliness is a human response to one’s evironment. There’s nothing wrong with it. I personally don’t subscribe to the idea, but I can see where one would.
As for this blog and other outlets we may have culturally right now, there is a need for community that is lacking. And it’s not just African Americans, it’s everyone. Technology has robbed us of valued time, once customary courtesy, and the closeness of human interaction…but I’ve digressed.
Feel free to come on here and vent, that’s what it’s for (far as I know). But as for being lonely, get out and get to know you, do you, and get comfortable with it. The lonelist people in the world are the one’s with no sense of self.
Be your own best friend (if you have to).

“He who increases knowledge, increases sorrow.” Another idiom to live by.
I too can get wrapped up in the plight of Black people, the divisions we suffer, the causes and remedies. The environment, the growing national debt, the perilous pairing of historical empires to our own, the writings of Nostradamus. All that.
And in the end, I try to whittle it down to what I can do in my day to day “all politics is local” and go from there. But I envy people that go days without having random thoughts like “does this division of ‘black leadership’ in the Democratic Party speak more to an institutional problem, than a problem of the moment?”
I mean, sometime my head rings….That’s when I get with the homies a talk for a minute.

DasV you are right 100% of the blame falls on the shoulders of men and women equally. sorry for the long post
Women chose the feminist movement over family. Now, that women are finding out that it is not the be all to end all, they trying figure out how they can get both. (Superwoman)
Men are caught into the fast and instand gratification. No work ethic. No understanding of earning what you get. No thoughts of the future until it has slapped you in the face. No legacy for your children.
Women and their deep, deep believe that they are entitled to or “Deserve” something that they didn’t earn. No one owes you anything and you don’t “Deserve” anything that you didn’t earn.
Acceptance of responsibilty and the mere fact that women will blame everything or anyone else for the conditions of their life. On top of that they will raise their children (both boys and girls) with the same sense of entitlment and lack of acceptance of responsibility.
Men running away, sitting back or scared to confront the woman due the laws allow these women to raise their children in such a manner.
Family Court - Divorce is a $250 billion industry annually. 75 percent of divorces are filed by women and of that 75%, 97% of divorces are for Irreconcilable difference. Judges us “The Best Interest of the Child” to grant sole custody to women in 98% of all divorce cases which guarantees the man will pay the women child support, spousal support and her attorney’s fees and court cost. All for the “The Best Interest of the Child”. Research proves that children raised in homes with their biological fathers have a much higher chance of succeeding in life. Unfortunately, approximately 25 million American children live absent or apart from their fathers.
Why isn’t joint custody or shared parenting an automatic response with both parents are fit?

ForReal i hear ya mayne, but child support aint sleep or the energy to cook dinner after a long day or the know-how to switch out a dryer pigtail…. that child support only goes so far. and the children arent necessarily suffering cause daddy aint in the home, cause sometimes daddies die and the kids turn out ok…. the children is suffering cause mommie doesnt have the support system needed to cope with all of the responsibilities that come with being a single parent. you wanna help your child… who aint in your home?? hold the door for a single moms, or shake your head silently at a child cuttin up in the store and the moms too tired to deal with it or tell her shes lookin smart and to continue to handle hers, cause you like that and then smile.

DasV I didn’t say anything about deceased but if that’s your situation, point made perfectly clear but if that man didn’t plan for the future he let you and his child down. Which goes back to one of my point about men.
However, to say a child isn’t suffering because daddy isn’t there is just not true. There are things that you get from your father that mother just simply can’t do and no money isn’t it.
Again, why isn’t joint custody or shared parent an automatic response when a divoce takes and the both parents are fit?

For Real I agree with your post. Luckily my ex-spouse and I agree with joint custody and it works fine for us. The courts look at it differently but he and I arent at each others throats so WE made a decision for our child, the one WE are raising. I would never ever in a million years dream of keeping lil mo away from daddy. Its just not happening. A child that is given the opportunity to have both parents active in his/her life should have just that. Its a a sad state that some spouses make it hard for children to see other parents or when parents flat out neglect their children. I wont say that child isnt hurting b/c mommy/daddy isnt there, but they definitely arent getting all that they deserve out of the situation. Single moms do great jobs everyday, of course but just imagine how much better everything would have been if there had been a father around to help her out and vice versa.

I did not leave my seat and walk over or even attempt to. I shouted that out jus for him, who cares about her. We gotta get back to standin up for some real ish man, and when I shouted that out many of his boyz looked over and kind of got what I say saying, like “dogg its a girl! knockin her out will get you nowhere, just badluck and maybe jailtime”. Plus I know the owner so I just threw it out there B4 it got out of control. I think that fellas need to practice this more often, alot of bad situations could be avoided I think if a homie just stated the obvious at times. We dont need to turn into the hulk/ incredible angry black man all the dam time. Only when neccessary! If he would have taken offense to me, I would have simply threw my hands up like ok then knock her azz out… I tried to warn you tho.
