Speaking of the Black Elite......

[Convinced]

Hi Sorors, Sisterfriends, Frats, and Visitors:
What's up? I'm sure that after reading my "crying pink and green tears" post, you all know about my lack of a man. Well, whenever I see someone that I haven't seen in awhile, they all say "Oh, so you've broken up with that guy? Girl, he was nothing but...trash, a nobody, worthless... etc, etc." Then, they go one to make comments about the fact that he doesn't have a college degree, had a gold tooth, a baby's mama, and drives an '80 Impala (hey, that rhymed!) They really don't know anything about the way he treated me (cheating, etc.) They base their opposition on the fact that I, with a job and two degrees, and cultural interests, was "too good for him". So, is it being an elitist to seek out guys with degrees, professional jobs, nice cars, good credit, etc.? This is what everyone thinks I should be doing. What do you all think?
