Wow, no wonder all of your men go to other women (yes, I am referring to the black girl's perpetual complaint of white women "stealing" all their men). This is EXACTLY what black men always complain about!!

And those are the men we could care less if they step to white women. See, this type of mentality truly angers me. Basically, a man can't handle a STRONG Black woman who knows what she wants and won't settle for less, so for this reason, he dates white women. Well, that particular man is WEAK. And no STRONG woman wants a WEAK man no way. No woman is going to change her expectations, wants, nor needs to appease a man and keep him from running to other women, especially white women. Please.

And by the way, there's not a white woman on the planet that has "stolen" a black man away from a black woman. There is no comparison and no competition. I believe that you have opened a SERIOUS can of worms up in here!! And not ALL Black men are chasing after these white women. And WE are not the reason that they date them anyway. There's a method to that madness, but that's another thread for another day.


Anyway, in response to the original question in the thread.....

I am a princess, and my father told me so. I love to be waited on hand and foot. I love to be pampered. And I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth at all, we were actually poor. I STILL have a princess mentality. That does not mean that I can't take care of my man. It also doesn't mean I can't take care of myself. I live alone, pay my own bills. My father treated me like I was the best thing since sliced bread, and I expect any man in my life to treat me the same way, and I will treat him the same way, too. That is my want and my expectation. I'm not angry at men who don't measure up or who don't want to measure up. We simply were not meant to be.

But don't think that I want a servant in my life. I want my Prince. As I mature into a Queen, he will mature into a King. And I will treat him as such. I personally don't find anything wrong with feeling like royalty and wanting to be treated as such. It's not a joke, it's a state of mind. I want a man who has that same state of mind, not one who thinks that I'm stuck up or too demanding.

Sorry for the long post, just my .08.
