The bible states that he who finds a wife finds a good thing. Trust God and believe in FAITH Let the man find you. keep God first and it will happen not in your time but in Gods time

You are doing what a lot of women wish would happen in their lives. Proactive is the best way to go when dating. I watched an Oprah show 4 years ago called 100 dates. I started journaling my dates, I have been on 50 dates from April 2004-December 2008. 2009, I had no dates, I am open to the possiblity of discovering true love but ,I always pray that God allows me to see him in the people I am dating, not the money, power or prestige. Happy hunting sister.

Oh my...I hope you are not serious. I can remember feeling desperate and hopeless about marriage. I use to pretend that this or that guy I was dating was dating was "the one". But I was only fooling myself. When I stopped pretending and faced reality it happened. I didn't find my man because we found each other. And if I had to go looking for him then it would have felt all wrong. Some things in life I will support and others should stay traditional for the overall stability of the relationship. Looking for your man and almost forcing him to marry is a big mistake. No man wants to be pressured into something so life changing. You're just begging for trouble.

If this woman wants to start a webpage searching for a husband, then let it be! Some of you'll reviews are ridiculous. Now, how can she find a man if she doesn't look for one. Maybe she's the type who is a little shy to meet face to face or something. "Some reviews said God will send you a man" this is true, but if she sit around waiting and praying for a man without looking for him, how will she find him? If she wants to be married so let it be! No one wants to be alone even if she is educated with a Master's or Doctorate degree and is financially stable. You need a man for friendship and companionship. I don't want to see my lady friends all the time. Eventhough there are a ton of *ex toys out there, every woman needs a man.

Ok.... my bad from my previous comment where I spelled the word "chic" as "sheek".... you can update your site and make it more chic and I'll go get a spelling book and work on spelling :)...

Neenah, I already know my comment may come off shallow, but I looked at the site, and my advice and suggestion right off the bat might be to put up some better photos. Unfortunately, we live in a world where people are visual, and (as you know) men are ESPECIALLY visual. Yes, I realize that looks aren't the only thing that a woman has to bring to the table but that's usually what gets them. My next comment would be to update your site and make it look more appealing. It's looks too crazy and certainly does not look like anything I'd expect from a PR professional. It needs an upgrade and to look more sheek. Try looking into "non-posed" photos, and please please loose the photo in the peach shirt (as well as the beige shirt-bad outfit). You look like a beautiful lady, so bring it! Love and hugs from Texas

@B, Girl, at 45 you are still young with lots of opportunities to find a terrific guy who is totally into you. I hope others don't misunderstand my comments about waiting on God, I do believe in that, but I believe you must put yourself in situations that make you more accessible to meet HIM. God will bless your efforts. It doesn't happen miraculously. You may try dating outside the black community too to find a nice man. Before anyone jumps on me for that comment, I am just saying if you have not or can't find a nice black man, time is wasting. Make your own happiness wherever you find it. I'm pulling for you and Miss Pickett. Make a similar goal for yourself girl.

Lakeysha, You are 25 now, but I'd like to see you when you are 40 saying the same things --- especially if you are still single. For those of you who think God is going to magically send a man to appear at your door, stop deluding yourselves. You have to be proactive and help yourself find your mate. Miss Pickett has the right idea and just because she is initiating the contact, doesn't mean that the right man will not pursue her. Why can't we just wish this woman well? At least I do and know that she will find her soulmate and it won't even take a full year. Good luck Miss Pickett.

I commend you girl on this bold step. A lot of us black women would want to do something like this but we are afraid of the preception of being desperate. But in actuality many of us ARE desperate. I am 45 and have never had a 'good' man so I have given up and just living my life to the fullest as single black woman.

Ya know, as long as you are open, aware and true to yourself and go from your heart and not your mind, listen to the heart, you will be just fine. Good Luck to you in this journey.
