Good Black Men are indeed all around us.
We pass them on the streets, in the malls and the halls at work. Most we cant see because we dont know what a good man really looks like.
He usually isnt flashy enough or rich enough to turn our heads. He might not wear a suit or push a Lex. He might not have a “body like Tyson with a
Denzel face.” But, as you mature, you realize its better to find someone whos got your back than someone who turns your head.
A good man doesnt agree wholeheartedly with everything you say. He doesnt just tell you what you want to hear and do the opposite.
He doesnt declare how sensitive, sweet, caring, sincere, yada, yada he is (he wont have to because it shows). He has his own opinions and yours

He even admits at times to being wrong, especially if you are willing to do the same.
A good man is not going to meet every item on your checklist. He is human with frailties and faults mixed in with all of his wonderful, strong
attributes.
He needs your love and respect. He needs to feel that you dont live to “catch” him doing something wrong so you can declare, “Aha!
I knew you were a dog!!”
A good man isnt insecure about his women having great achievements. In fact he is her number one supporter and becomes disappointed with her when
she begins to lose herself, for the sake of “not hurting his feelings, or I just want to make him happy.”

good man right along with her.
A good man doesnt necessarily give you a huge birthday or Valentines gift.
He shows his love in the ways that are comfortable
