Single Black Male

I think a lot … but not every thought is worthy of an entire post. Here I will attempt to take some of the more interesting things floating in my head and share them with you.

- Something about the club is becoming less and less attractive. When I go, I can have fun, but I rarely do. In addition, I just don’t feel like trying to meet women here. Like the aura of buckethead is just so strong I can’t do it. I’ve written about why you can’t meet a girlfriend at the club, but I used to have fun … maybe I’m getting old.

- I think I want a girlfriend. Not sure yet … but I think “being single” is too time consuming.

- Having a girlfriend can be expensive. Its been awhile, but me and someone were talking about this recently. For a guy who wants to treat his girlfriend well, you have flowers, dates, dinners, trips, and if your simping … her rent too.

- Someone on “Def Comedy Jam” made a joke about women ruining “dumb conversations”. Guys can talk/argue for hours about the most random things, such as Superman vs. Batman, as soon as you bring a woman into the conversation … instant death. This happened to me when me and friends were discussing what would get more women … a Law Degree (not a lawyer yet) or a 46″ Plasma TV. After 15 minutes of discussion, we asked a female. “Thats stupid, what do you mean, etc”. Convo over!

- Really though … what would get more women … the law degree or the plasma?. You would be surprised how many women don’t see the law degree as a major “attractor”.

- Dating is worst for men than women. A failed first date means the planning (I try and custom tailor each one), money, and time is wasted. For a woman, its just time, and at least you probably got a free meal out of it.

I was sitting on my balcony looking at the frozen lake behind my condo, sipping on a concoction of vodka and orange/mango juice, listening to screw.  As usual, chilling, embracing the cold in my North Face, and just thinking.  Here is a few points I thought I would share.

– I really want a girl who listens to screw.  The slowed down music made famous in the Houston region is my ultimate vice.  Don’t care if a budding black proffesional should be bumping Common or something conscious … gimme Mr. Michael “5000″ Watts all day.  Any girl who can tell me the original members of the “Color Changing Clique”, the “Boss Hogg Outlaws”, or can quote some classic Chamillionaire … please hit me up.  We might have a love connection.

– I’m glad I’m a moderately successful black male. With my pickiness and ability to lose interest with no warning … I’m glad there is an abundant of successful and available black women.  Don’t mean to throw it in ya’lls faces … but damn it feels good.

– I really do like older women.  Its like wine.  With age, the mental process strengthen, you know what you want, and your no longer held to some of the dumber “rules”, and your honest … and that honesty is often beautiful.

– I want to write a book.  I’ve always wanted to write a book.  A computer scientist writing a book on relationships … its so ironic its beautiful.  There will be an intro chapter explaining basic economic theory (I also studied economics). You would be surprised how well basic supply & demand apply to dating.

– I probably shouldn’t write posts while intoxicated. Hopefully it doesn’t show.  You tell me.

– After listening to Webbie’s  “Independent” a lot more … its not as empowering as I initially thought.  I mean … Boosie sounds like he just wants a sugar mama.  I still hold on to my dream though.

– I believe in prenuptials.  I’ll be damned if I’m getting married without one! As someone just told me … did Ms. Basketball player earn 50% of the 80 million?  Did she shoot a free throw? Was she up at 6am doing suicides?

Thats it.  Forgive any typo’s … not proofreading rantings … lol
