But nothing compares to ;We're gonna build a wall' and 'bomb the hell out of ISIS' contender Donald Trump. The billionaire New Yorker has managed to come out the front...

Recently I have heard brothers say that they have friends who are 'good brothers'- they have a job, car, own place, no kids and they cant understand why their friend can't find a good woman. Maybe they don't know their friend inside of a dating relationship.  This phenomenon happens quite a bit where a man will say he's a good brother and he may be but for some reason has trouble identifying why he is unable to meet certain women. Tonight, we'll talk about why the good brother may be having...

This is always one of our hottest topics- dating interracially and inter ethically even inter-faith. All of these can be exciting for people to experience.

Relationships are always full of compromise. There is give and take in every relationship. But sometimes we are making a compromise with ourselves that the other person doesn't know about. We are expecting them to abide by a compromise that we never discussed with them. And then we become disappointed with them when  they don't live up to a side of the bargain they didn't know existed. How can we make sure that we compromise in a way that makes sure both parties involved get their needs met. ...

The numbers show that 70% of black women are single and that nearly half of us will never be married. There have been all types of blogs and shows done to explain this phenomenon.
