Where they do that at?

I was on Twitter a few days ago...Yes, Twitter...and I saw someone respond to the trending topic "#IfIwasurwoman". She said "#IfIwasurwoman my car would always be clean," or something to that effect. My mind started to wander again...I remember the days when men had some real pride about relationships and felt like they needed to be the provider and protector of their woman. That thought was followed by where they do that at?

Seriously? I have had boyfriends who kept my car clean, if I needed an oil change, I never knew, held doors, wanted to take you to a dinner and a movie, wanted to stay up all night on the phone, wanted to try to impress you, wanted to buy you nice things, maybe even pay a bill or two. But as of late, I met a lot of PEOPLE(men and women), who are after one of two things: Sex or money...if not both.

I was having this same conversation with a gentleman friend the other day, and he looked at me and said "Do people love anymore?...What happened to staying married for 50 years?" I'm almost for certain I replied "Where they do that at?" I would assume partly because I am so social and I am in the clubs more than the average person, that it really seems like people are trying to get you before you get them. Like they really go into every new friendship/relationship/acquaintance with a "What can I get out of this person?" mentality. It's like a viral plague taking over!

I am trying to figure out where are the guys that take the trash out? And change light bulbs? The ones that don't want you out by yourself after dark? The ones that want to show you they can cook and keep a house clean? Where they do that at? Do men even get their hands dirty anymore?

On the flipside, there are a lot of "Boss Chics" who pride themselves in "pimping niggas." Sigh...They are usually just as broke as the dudes they claim to be pimping. Don't own nothing, rent their apartment, leasing or borrowing a car in someone else's name. We put all of that into the universe and then say "Woe is me, why is it so hard to find a great mate?" Don't make that man take you out ALL the time...some days stay home and cook! Talk to each other! Don't ask for Louis bags, ask for stocks! Upgrade EACH OTHER!

Where they do that at?

I'll let you know when I find out...
