I believe there are 5 points in a relationship in which the people will have to be connected: Emotional, Mental, Physical, Spiritual, and Sexual.

As long as these five points coincide between the two individuals, a man will see no reason to go elsewhere. All needs are met. It is when something is not connecting between the two or they are not on the same "level" will infidelity happen.

Emotionally- A man wants a woman that will encourage him not tear him down. He wants her to let him know that he is needed. In turn he should be comfortable to confide in his woman with his emotions and it not be seen as a "weakness" but strength that he has that much trust in her.

Mentally- The man and woman should be on the same wavelength when it comes to conversation. THe should be able to connect on mulitiple range of topics and share the same interest... also think of this as "Communication"

Physically- There must be some type of attraction....that way if everything else lines up ... something that "Sparkles a little more" will not make the brotha stray.

Spiritually- Every man wants a woman that can be his "rib" especially if it deals with religion, they should have at least the same basic views so that being unequally yoked spiritually will not become a problem.

Sexually- In marriage a husband and his wife become one. The husband should be willing to do whatever it takes to keep his wife satisfied as well as vice versa.. If everything you need to satisfy you is done behind closed doors then a man will not go out else where to be satisfied..

PB,

What up mang? Fear not young Padawan, for you are destined to fall in

love, simply because that's part of GOD's plan for all of us. You just need

to pray that she's not half-retarded or krazy:D. This country's

divorce rate is only indicative of this country's leadership and this

country's moral decay. It's all a cyclical flow of madness Bruh, but, that's

convo for a later show.

In regards to love, I don't know much, but I do know this.

Your job is to be the man that you were designed to be, and as you

work to become that beacon, your light will become so illuminescently

bright and strong, that the woman that GOD has destined for you, will find

her way to you because of it Bruh.

the 7th Son

But the Bible states that GOD never allows us to be tempted without having a way out.

Also, it's not always about what the person looks like on the outside - what is this person's character?

I won't get into all of that, but like I said a few seconds ago, you'll know. Just know that everything that comes your way is NOT of God.

That's so very true, BtB. I have learned that when it comes to expecting what GOD has already promised us, we must be intentional and pray for "specific" things. Ask not, want not. If a Bruh only prays for a dime piece, he'll get that dime piece, the only thing is, is that when she arrives, she may be a half-retarded ass Monkey in the brain.

My relationships have never worked out, that's why I'm skeptical about getting involved in another one. It must be me, because I can't figure out why they don't work.

Its hard being a pimp - lol - Because there is such a shortage of available black men, women are always after men regardless of the fact that the man may be in a relationship. To that end, it can be challenging for many men to remain in committed relationships.
