@HISchild Only GOD can judge me.

A nose is just a nose. Pointed noses are more European. I love my blackness--big nose, little nose, whatever.

I don't drink or smoke na,

LOL. I love that song, should I let him. Oh yesssss,

Thanks for sharing the link!

In Mid March I will finally meet my boyfriend's parents and I'm scared to death. Any tips I know with meeting the parents you should always be respectful but I just want to make sure I don't say the things you're not supposed to say etc or defy any cultural norms. Oh and he's Igbo!

I'm dating an igbo man right now so I can't speak from the experience of Black Americans who have married. However, I will say that the whole idea of Nigerian men being hard to please and non-romantic is so far from the truth. I dated a Yoruba guy when I was in college and he was soooo good to me. Our relationship didn't work for various reasons but I would never fix my mouth to say that he was not attentive or romantic.

The guy I'm dating now is a dream. Yes he is stubborn and old school but we understand each other. He's very considerate and caring. It goes without saying that all men are not created equal no matter where you come from and obviously this is true in this situation.

Anyone willing to share simple recipes for me to cook for my guy? He loves my "Soul Food" meals but I want to be better at trying to learn some of the dishes he had when he was back home. I'm thinking that I want to start small and incorporate dishes with what I usually make until I get better.

Thanks in Advance!
