[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In DC, there are way more super quality women than men (family backgrounds, intelligence, looks, jobs, good personalities, interesting, etc). If you're still looking for "at least" kind, interesting, sexy, intelligent and family oriented, I would say accept the date or proposal from a guy that has two or three of those 5. I chose kind and family oriented. I would have killed for 4. That was me at 32. 5 years later, half of my highly eligible female friends are still single, and even the average Joes are all married or engaged.   [/quote]

I agree with you.  I was not particularly blown away by my husband when we first met.  In fact, he did not have a job, car or own his own home (was rooming with former college mates in a house owned by one of them).  This was over 20 years ago.  But, one thing I noticed that was different from the other guys I dated was his kind and positive spirit.  He was such a good person.  I did not appreciate that initially because I was so used to the jerks I had been dating.  I am glad I did not pass him up.  He is still kind and a great father and is no longer unemployed.  In fact, he went back to school and got an MBA and is now an SVP with a major bank.  And, at 53 most of his friends are married or divorced but dating.  I'm not sure if I don't know any single men because I have been married too long or there are so few eligible single African American men.  I do have a few female friends I would love to match make for but don't know anyone.[/quote]
