Marriage Between a Black African Man and a Black American Woman

When a black african man decides
To marry a black American woman, 
This marriage can work well 
if the black 
American girl still knowing 
And respecting 
African culture 
And traditions 
At least fifty percent. 
Once disrespecting
A black african man 
He loses interest in 
A woman automatically 
No matter how attractive 
Or rich she is. 
African black man 
Wants to be adored in marriage 
To make her real queen 
In the house 
Till death separate
Them.
Secret to be long with a black african man
In relationship or marriage, 
Just respect him as
Your second father. 
You will witness
Extra - love 
And protection 
In your entire life 
On this earth. 
African black men love their wives so much. 
When it comes to a black American who lost 
His African  culture and traditions 
Marrying a black african woman.
He will find big difference 
Between a black girl who 
Grew up in America 
And the one grew up in Africa
No matter both 
Are attractive black sisters. 
All black  men in the World 
Want to be respected 
In relationships 
Or Marriages. 
Why many divorces taking  places 
in American  black communities?
Why majority  black Americans 
Practice the system of boyfriends 
And girlfiends than husbands 
And wives? 
I am sharing this truth 
To be looking at 
Not as critism. 
I love you all brothers 
And sisters
