I watched Meet the Browns today. I have to say that I understand what Tyler is TRYING to do-but I just can't get into his movies. I have never seen any of his plays (I tried watching one on Youtube but I skipped through most of the songs) and I am proud of his success.
But a man cannot tell the Black Womans Plight. If you are a black woman dating in todays society-you understand Exactly what I am talking about. I am not bitter, sad, lonely or even angry. I am resolved that I will entire my twilight years alone and I have accepted it in my spirit. I feel if God wants me with that certain Boaz then he is really going to have to show me that HE is THE ONE because I have retired from dating.
My only sort of regret is that because of my staunch stance against being anyones Baby Mama-I probably will never birth a child in this world. But there are tons of kids in this country looking for a wonderful home and I can provide that for them when that time comes.
What frightens me are the women who have settled for fear of being alone. Good sistas with great heads on their shoulders.
Young women throwing themselves hoping that one of these knuckeheads will play the Pick Me Game.
Generational curses being repeated over and over.
So as I watched Meet the Browns, I felt sad for other sisters who are watching this movie who are single moms holding onto hope that one day a Rick Fox type will waltz into their lives and live the happily ever after.
My former dude or whatever still tries his little jedi mind tricks. I now laugh them off. I often ask myself, why couldn't I see that he WASN'T THE ONE when I was enamored with him? lol
I am never rude, but it is clear that I don't want to be bothered.
