06/07/10 03:26 AM Would You Marry a Man with a Low Sex Drive? by Deborrah

I cannot tell you how many women I've talked to over the past few months in their late 20s to late 30s, with boyfriends that have a much lower sex drive than the women do.

These women feel like they have to beg for sex! I was shocked because these are young people and I'd expect they'd be boning like bunny rabbits.

The curious part is that these women are looking at these guys as potential husbands. Would you marry a man that wasn't hitting it right and propa?

06/02/10 07:46 PM Are long term marriages starting to be a thing of the past? by Razma

With the news spreading like wild fire through the internet of Al and Tipper Gore's marriage break up after 40 years, some relationship experts have said that in today's time, Longer term marriages face more threats than ever before. According an AmNY article, Manhattan psychologist Diana Kirschner said older couples are struggling because the over-50 generation happens to be part of the 'me' generation. Instead of working on improving their relationship, they're finding new hobbies.
In the last year high profile long term couples have split. Elizabeth and John Edwards, Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins, Mel Gibson,Robyn Moore, Sean Penn/Robin Wright Penn.
What do you think? Are 20 year marriages or more starting to be a thing of the past? Is there a marriage lite? Do marriages have a sell by date?

06/01/10 04:18 PM Dumb Things Men Say to Women by Deborrah

I am thinking that a lot of the things Black men say to Black women that they try to claim is "a joke" are really hostile, cutting and hurtful things designed to damage a woman's confidence and self esteem.

I can think of no reason why a man that claims to love you and have your best interest at heart would be so quick to say things that make you feel small, angry or hurt... and do it over and over again!

Then when you complain about it, he brushes you off like its YOUR fault that you are upset by saying crazy shyt like "you take things too seriously... I'm just kidding!"

That stuff is a guaranteed way to make me crack my knuckles and go for your jugular dude.

How do you handle these kinds of taunts, name calling, etc. from a man you are in a relationship with?

06/01/10 04:13 PM The One Soul Mate Theory of Love by Deborrah

Why do people believe in the one soul mate theory of love? I think a lot of people waste time rejecting one person after another looking for this magical mystical absolutely perfect person that they think is going to come in and change their life instantly without them having to put in any work.

I remember hearing Oprah say something in response to someone saying her soul mate was coming like "well my soul mate must be in African and he's walking!"

05/28/10 06:46 AM Getting Ready to Settle Down? by Deborrah

A friend of mine that I kicked it with some time ago called to tell me that he was thinking it was time for him to settle down. (I wondered why he was telling ME!)

He said he was looking for a woman that could deal with him because he has major issues. Yeah ok I said to myself. Then he says he needs to find a woman that won't use his kids against him or try to take his children from him. Since he doesn't have any children I was wondering why this was a concern.

Does anyone else see the craziness here? Why do men worry so much about the possible negative outcome of a relationship, whereas women tend to focus more on the possible positive outcome? Are men more afraid of being hurt than women are?
