Could you do a relationship without sex and intimacy?

Someone I know is currently in a very odd relationship. He's dating this woman that hasn't had sex with him in a while, and isn't into cuddling or being close together. The odd thing about it all, is that these two have been dating for a while now, maybe a year or two.

With all that being said, do you think you could date someone without having sex and having any intimacy? I couldn't do it. I feel like that's just a relationship that should have ended a lot sooner. But, I know some people who just date someone to live with them, so maybe that's what is going on there.

Could you see yourself sticking with a relationship that didn't have any love?

The 1960s - Over 40% of black families owned their own businesses, what happened?

That was almost 1 in every 2 families having their own business. I have to wonder what happened here. Now it is something like less than 8%. I also was reading the statistics for marriage and co-op parenting. At the same time, 85% of black households were married or co-opting parents. Thomas Sowell has a strong stance on this in blaming the welfare state for ruining the black businesses, the black household/family, and the black community. He says in one generation of being on a welfare state, all of this was destroyed. I think the police state plays a role but I am not sure what he thinks about that.

What are your thoughts on this?

Are you giving your man what he needs and wants or are you giving him what YOU think he needs and wants?

@Caprice and I were debating on this in regards to Megan the Stallion but it is a larger issue. How many of you think you know what men need and want instead of actually listening to the man in your life and acting based on what he says? Listen to woman for 2 minutes:

She is kicking straight up knowledge. I’ve been in situations where I wanted to provide the person I was dating more but she wouldn’t listen to what I needed. They would argue with me about what I needed and then would be upset when I bounced because the next woman would provide me what I needed without issue.

In the Meg the Stallion scenario, the statement is “Protect Black Women” but you can’t tell us to protect when you won’t listen to use when we tell you what’s reasonable behavior. We ask that you be a lady and we’ll protect you…but some women want to be a stank hoe, tramp, hood chick and then still want to demand our protection.

You have to listen to what men say they need, not what you think they should need.

Disconnects between real life and social media

Earlier, I was thinking about how we see so many people post on social media, and how different the posts are from their actual life. I always found it funny to see groups of friends recording themselves laughing and having a good time, and as soon as they stop recording they all go back to frowning and not saying a word to each other. I know it has an effect on a lot of people - Especially kids that are constantly seeing these "perfect" lives and feel like their lives don't live up to their expectations. What do you think about social media and how people portray themselves?

Would you date someone with a couple kids?

Would you date someone if they had any kids? Honestly I have dated some women in the past, and a couple of them had a kid or two. I would say, that having a kid or two is not a deal breaker for me. It's when those kids are annoying brats that it becomes a deal breaker. Like damn, take care of your kids.

What are your views on this? Would you date a woman who already has a kid or two or even more?
