It just sounds to me like christiangirl needs a larger population to work from.
Agree and agree. I think I've been here too long. Once I get to grad school, I'll have a whole new city of men (hopefully more mature and focused) to pick through. However, my family is deathly afraid that taking me away from my HBCU environment and placing me at the PW school I'm going to raises the chances of me ending up with a white guy...whooooole new topic.

Both just doesn't exist anymore. My X was really nice looking but he was the biggest jerk I've ever met. Then I had this pest kind of a guy who was really nice but he was not attractive at all. I just don't want you to get married to the wrong guy, that's all. Men cheat married or single, and if there is any decent guys out there where are they?
This is my dilemma, but at this point, I'd honestly take it. I'm not saying I want to be cheated on, but I can't comment on situations like that because I've never been cheated on. I've never had my heart broken, so I have no advice to pass on and can't even join in a conversation about it. I've never known huge sacrifice for a man or what it feels like to have someone sacrifice for me. I've only been in love once and it didn't even lead to a lasting relationship (he moved and we made a clean break). I've just...NEVER. At this point, I want to experience all aspects of a love life so that I can have SOMETHING. Some sort of knowledge, some sort of gain. Now, I'm not going to go out looking for men who are just trouble, but I'm not scared of running into them, because even these would be better than being locked in the dark, not getting to experience anything for myself.
