			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-423097" title="something-new" src="http://ionehellobeautiful.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/something-new.jpg" alt="something-new" width="427" height="320" /><span id="more-422767"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“I wonder if I should lower my standards and date a black man.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">No, this isn’t me playing devil’s advocate. This is a direct quote from a friend. She is beautiful, hella smart, body banging like a benzie and you guessed right…she’s single.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Her case is like most &#8211; she is single because she chooses to be, not outright but in indirect ways that pushes interested parties away. She’s been seeing this amazing guy for months but there’s one thing about him she can’t get over: He’s white. [Note from SG: If you haven't noticed by now, I'm black and 99.9% of the people I talk about on here are black as well.]</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“I just always saw myself with a black man having beautiful black babies.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">My friend is sold out on the Cosby way of life. She admits she is bougie and all too concerned with how people are going to view her that she has held back from committing to a great guy because he’s a lighter shade of pale.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Interracial dating is a none factor in my book. I believe those who are opposed to it are just unhappy in their own lives that they want to rain on someone else’s parade. . . <strong><a href="http://saysthesinglegirl.com/2009/settling/">READ THE REST HERE!</a></strong></p>
