It was on July 3rd 2005, when I left home to start a new life in Tampa Florida. Since then, July 3rd has always been my own personal Independence Day. And since today marks the 20th anniversary of my leaving the nest…I thought I’d post some reflection.

If I could go back twenty years and talk to my 18-year-old self, what would I tell him? What would I tell that jeri-curled, 310-pound big black guy with no sense of fashion, no experience, barely any knowledge of the world, and yet filled inexplicably with uncanny optimism and determination.

Recently, on an awesome post by Jack about the Failure of Christian Dating Sites, a Regular and I got into an interesting discussion about whether it’s a good idea to talk about “God” on the first date.

The Regular’s position was that the first date is not where you want to talk about God, faith, or your Christianity. You should prioritize just having fun and getting to know one another. It should be more light-hearted.

My position was that we should definitely mention God and talk about our first date. Not just because talking about Christ is something I actually enjoy and hoped to find someone who enjoyed it as well. But also because of my intent and priorities.

Is it a deal-breaker if you found out that the guy you liked voted for Trump? Would you break up with him if he didn’t care one way or the other about political issues like Black Lives Matter, Social Justice or Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion?

I agree that a couple should be aligned in their core values for marriage. However, I’m concerned that thanks to Social Media and this Perennial High School Mentality where the “cool kids” are still telling the others what’s cool or not, Women are being shamed against dating the kind of men who are raised to protect and provide for them.

It’s very much like the ladies of England pinning a white feather on men who didn’t enlist to fight in WW I. They didn’t just do this to label those men as cowards, thus shaming men into signing up for a war they really didn’t want to fight in. They also did it to shame all the other women from mating these kinds of men.

POINTS DISCUSSED

  1. Why Should YOU Care? Her Body, Her Choice!
  2. A History of Women Being Used to Corrupt Men:
  3. Tolerance and Acceptance is a Lie
  4. Love is Not Blind, It’s Woke!

First off, we all know that there are indeed people (black men) out there who deliberately use their platforms and messages to attack, belittle, and degrade black women. We know this. Anyone can pull up a clip and use it as an example. But that’s not what we’re talking about. 

POINTS DISCUSSED:

  1. Black Men Are a Problem too 
  2. Is Social Media Promoting the Stereotypes or Exposing Reality? 
  3. The Epidemic of Baby-Momma Culture 
  4. Why Black Men Are Afraid to Tell Women the Truth 
  5. Mad at Black Men for Dating Outside Their Race

Don’t silence these women. Let them speak. Because by their words, they’re proving what men like me have been saying for years. Plainly put, a lot of modern day American women don’t want Godly Bible practicing Christians because women want to be their own gods.

POINTS DISCUSSED:

  1. The Wicked Tactics of Joy Taylor
  2. Are Men More Christian Than Women? (Love is Blind Examples)
  3. Weak Male Christians are a Problem
  4. Her Political Views Are Her Religion
  5. Should You Declare You’re a Man of God?

The Wicked Tactics of Joy Taylor

Here, we have 38-year-old Joy Taylor. She’s a FoxSports Personality who made headlines early this year as part of a bombshell report about her encouraging another woman to get into relationships with men, that way the woman can hang the threat of sexual misconduct over the man’s head to get what she wants.

She Wants a “Battled-Tested” Christian, Not a “Church Boy”?

We need to talk about how Christian Men are constantly being mocked and rejected by ladies who also claim to be Christians themselves. This is a problem.

By “Christian Men,” I’m not talking about the lukewarm Christians or those who are Christian-in-Name-Only. Those guys are fine. Women love those guys. I’m talking about the true God-fearing, Bible-Practicing Christians.

This essay is inspired by this video where multiple women criticize Christian men for being corny. One woman asked, “Why are Christian Men corny? Why don’t they have swag?”

POINTS DISCUSSED:

  1. She Wants a Thug in a Suit
  2. The Pressure for You to be a Little “Less” Christian
  3. They Claim They Want a Christian, But Not Really…
  4. We’re Not Supposed to Be “With the World”
  5. Why Hip Hop is a Problem…
  6. The Problem with Claiming You want a “Battle-Tested” Christian
  7. Christian “Church Boys” are More Charismatic than You Think

Allow me to conclude this 9-Part Online Dating series by passing down the main lessons I learned to find a beautiful down-to-earth Christian wife after failing in my two priors stints.

In my previous parts, I explained why a man like me had no choice but to go back to the dating apps because the culture ruined the old-school ways in which Men Approached Women. I explained why Dating Apps won’t work for most people, primarily because of egos and an overinflated sense of value.

I explained how I “changed up my strategy” by being my authentic self instead of relying too heavily on Red Pill advice that’s designed to attract the wrong kind of woman. I revealed which Dating Apps gave me the best chances. I divulged my failed matches and how it didn’t work out with some beautiful prospects.

And lastly, I talked about how I attracted and recognized my wife when I found her. It didn’t take years to figure out she was “the one”. It took courage to be open and honest with her, which allowed her to demonstrate the qualities I was looking for in a wife.

So, as I wrap up this series about Online Dating, I just wanted to hit on a few key points to pass down if you were my sister or brother and you’re still looking for a loving, devoted spouse.

What’s Discussed:

  1. Deductive Reasoning:
  2. Which Women Would I NOT Swipe on?
  3. 1. Smile in your pictures
  4. 2. Show off a little body
  5. 3. Be Yourself and Provide Info in Your Bio
  6. 4. Lead With Your Faith…
  7. 5. How to Demonstrate Interest Before the 1st Date
  8. The 1st Date: Public Place 
  9. How Much Money Should You Spend on a Dating Site?
  10. Patience is Golden:
  11. Prayer and Trust in God
  12. What it Means to Commit

On April 5, 2025, I got married to a woman who I met through the Dating Apps. And at the wedding, one of her invites, a father-figure who I now call, “Mr. Ribs,” kept telling me, “You know what, young man! You found a good wife. And the Bible says, he who finds a good wife, found a good thing and favor with the lord.”

He said this, not once, but about three times…As if I didn’t know. As if I wasn’t already fully aware that I am blessed and found that rare Proverbs 31 woman…as if, it wasn’t until he pointed it out, that I went, “Oh my god…you’re right!”

No, no, no, ladies and gentlemen. I’m not a “throw caution to the wind” kind of guy. I’ve had plenty of opportunities to get with many woman over my 38 years of life, but I chose Julia. Why? Because I recognized she was “wife material”. Allow me to explain…

Points Discussed:

  1. A Man NEEDS to Be Respected
  2. Why “Plain Janes” Get Wife’d Up over Hot Girls:
  3. Marriage Will Be Difficult if YOU LET IT
  4. Will She Be a Good Mother?
  5. I Was Worried About Her Being Too Ugly
  6. She Acts like a Girly Girl
  7. She Treated Me Like a Husband BEFORE I Proposed

On April 12, 2025, my new wife and I took to the Sphere in Las Vegas to check out Darren Aronofsky’s film, “Postcard from Earth.” My friends…this film was so BAD that I had no problems throwing away the $200 bucks I already paid for the tickets and just walked out.

Now, I know what you’re thinking. “Hang on, Rock. You left early. So, how can you say the film is terrible?”

Thing is, we weren’t the only ones. Lol, almost true the Scriptures about the “faithful remnant,” there were a few people leaving too. One couple, an older white pair, saw that we had the same facial expression and the husband said, “I saw all I needed to see.”

  1. What is the Las Vegas Sphere?
  2. The Splendor of God’s Creations
  3. April 12, 2025 was Christ’s Memorial Day
  4. “Postcard from Earth” Made the Earth out to be a Deity:
  5. Religious Diversity and Inclusion is Wicked:
  6. All Christians Aren’t The Same or Equal

Yesterday, on April 5th 2025…I got married to a woman I found on a Dating App! In my last two posts, I detailed the many failed attempts I had with women I met online. But by the grace of God…I knew Julia was wife material and it didn’t take years for me to figure it out. Let’s talk about it.

Hopefully this will encourage others to be patient, trust in God, and use your best discernment. I’m 38-years-old. Julia is 30. Good men and women are out there. We’re just rare and not many qualify for us, if I may be so bold to say so myself.

Points Discussed:

  1. Who is Julia – My Future Wife
  2. I Chose Not to Play Two Women:
  3. She’s Not a Stereotypical Black Woman
  4. I’m Not Compatible with A LOT OF WOMEN:
  5. Dating by Your Own Rules:
  6. The Art of Conversation:

Who is Julia – My Future Wife

I found Julia’s Match.com profile on May 5th 2024, while I was still talking to Crystal. If you’ll recall from my failed Matches, Crystal was the single mother who originally ghosted me, but came back after a month to see if she could make things work with me.
