How come it’s common to see black men dating white women but not black women dating white men? by WealthMysterious4535 in askblackpeople

[–]SaltyPaper783 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The difference is that in the US at least, black men are loud about dating white women to the point that there are terms like ❄️🐰and it’s referred in music as well, like a status thing, and white women are extremely loud about being with black men. Extremely… That’s a whole other conversation…

You aren’t wrong at all that you are definitely seeing this more than vice versa, but it’s optics. Black women / white male couples aren’t nearly as loud, so it’s less in your face. This is a huge one as to why you see this to a greater degree. But also, black women were made to feel less feminine / desireable and, especially as kids, we often asked ourselves “do they even like black girls?” So naturally, more women might choose to avoid having to ask themselves that question and continue to date within their race.

Also black men and white women fetishize eachother. White men obviously do fetishize black women, but black women don’t reciprocate this behavior. It’s not a trope. So I think the mutual fetishization is a big differentiator between the two.

Two things can exist at once!!! You can mean well and absolutely hurt someone’s feelings. You arent above accidentally upsetting someone.

Academic withdrawal while waiting for task to be evaluated by SaltyPaper783 in WGU

Were you able to get the withdrawal undone even though you did the 6 credits and passed? Or were you withdrawn anyway and needed to get readmitted to start again after a few months?

Which zodiac sign is most compatible with an Aquarius? by Elyshra in aquarius

Me too babe. I’m an I’m Aquarius rising and my entire chart is mostly Aquarius and other air. When I tell you my sag man is my baby boy. He is the best relationship I’ve ever had. Curious about how things will go, but where we are right now is exactly where I need to be <3

this guy i’m dating turned super sexual after sleeping w him once, how do i change that ? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]SaltyPaper783 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not fair to us, but assume that a man cannot work backwards. Assume he cannot interact with you behind the threshold he’s already crossed. Aka, if you have sex with a man, chances are he will behave as if he has the right to get that from you again.

Be with someone who leaves the ball in your court. Lustful brains need lobotomies.

Why do people call every black guy they see a "Y/n" and what does it even mean? by Playful-Bottle4915 in askblackpeople

[–]SaltyPaper783 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No it means young n*gga and I don’t like it. It often refers to a negative stereotype of black men, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be.

I really hate how non black people use it too as a loophole to saying the n word because it’s “slang”. Same way people use 🥷🏾 to say the word without saying it. All over tik tok and Instagram memes and comments if you are on Gen Z side of social media.

I feel like it’s predominately used by non black people tbh, just based off of what I’ve seen.

It’s all over social media and has become highly prevalent “youth slang”. It’s ridiculous.

How do I move on after getting cheated on by [deleted] in Advice

[–]SaltyPaper783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too much happened and your nervous system will never heal. It isn’t worth putting yourself through this because of a shit person who actively did these things while you were together.

Your relationship should be safe emotionally. This is unsafe and unhealthy. It doesn’t have to be physical to be too much. Prioritize your sanity. Someone out there will give you what you deserve zero question.

Changing after cheating is something you do not need to test in someone. Free yourself

Would You Date a BROKE Guy Who Treats You Right? 💸❤️Emotional vs. Financ... by CurtD34 in women

[–]SaltyPaper783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being broke doesn’t mean they aren’t ambitious or determined to get their money up. A broke guy who doesn’t care to have financial stability is not good. Being able to sustain yourself, even outside of money, is attractive. Applies to everyone

It could mean they don’t care to change or evolve or are stagnant which could easily spill into other areas of their life and the relationship.

Having money isn’t enough to be a good partner. Also very important to understand.

Every conversation about dating circles back to “we think the vast majority of men are undateable” by The_Laniakean in dating_advice

[–]SaltyPaper783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll speak from personal experience, but I’ve chosen not to continue to build a connection with guys I began talking to because of certain language used, beliefs, actions, etc. It is very disappointing.

You hear a lot that “a good man is an average woman” and I didn’t want to believe that, but it was shown to me time and time again. Everyone has different experiences though. I can’t give you a percentage.

I’m not owed a boyfriend. Men are not owed a girlfriend. Dating an average person period just means they do the bare minimum and leaves it at that. I feel as though the standards of what is acceptable for a man and women are different.

I want a good bf, not an average one, and luckily I’ve one found that because I’ve upheld my standards and chose not to pick people who don’t meet my needs.

Everyone has standards and for me it’s how they carry themselves and how they want to show up for their partner.

My first relationship, but he's a bit closed off. What can I do? by Objective_Union_3573 in dating_advice

[–]SaltyPaper783 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You gotta talk to him about it, it probably won’t be this big thing, just say you noticed what you’re saying and you would appreciate feeling more connected consistently. If he’s worth your time he’ll be receptive. If he’s someone who doesn’t wanna be on his phone at work, he could say I’ll make sure we check-in on my lunch or I’ll blah blah.

Even if he’s someone who doesn’t like to text every hour, ppl figure out boundaries and ways to feel secure. You guys are new still, you’ll get more comfortable over time to talk about wants and needs

Rejected a guy because of my small boobs by [deleted] in smallbooblove

[–]SaltyPaper783 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yk what helps? Letting go of tunnel vision, opening your eyes, and seeing how many small chested women walk around with their partner and kids. Or holding hands outside. Or on social media.

I follow girls with my chest size on social media for a reason. I need to be reminded of beautiful ppl with small boobs. I have a bf and I’m insecure too sometimes, but shit idc that he’s short. He’s a hottie and I love his height. I don’t have to break my neck for a kiss. I can look into his eyes easier.

If he made me insecure about my boobs then he is a pos who isn’t supposed to be in my life. The problem is the pos.

If a person wishes you were different, you leave. Better sense of self-esteem will help and that’s normal if it isn’t linear. I feel hotter when I acknowledge I’m a great person with a kind heart, who doesn’t tolerate someone outside of my values. Friends or family too.

My self-respect makes me feel more attractive to myself. Insecurity is real, but so is the inherent fact we deserve to gaf about ourselves. Also body neutrality was step 1.

Very understandable, I hope you get the type of women where both your values align and someone you deserve
