Homeless Women Don’t Have To Settle

I turned down two men that said I could live with them when I was homeless.

But I declined because both of their houses were nasty. One of them had a dog. He was a white mans of course.. I don’t like dogs. I refused to live with a man when I was homeless because he had a dog.

The black man’s apartment was small and dirty. It’s like he moved in threw everything down and never cleaned it. His furniture was from the dumpster. Like on that Martin episode where Cole finally moved out his mom’s house and got his own apartment.

I recently heard a man say that no woman should be homeless because there is always a man that will let a woman come stay with him, unless she’s hard head. Yes most men will welcome a homeless woman a place to live. And he will want sex in return.

However, these men are low quality men living in low quality conditions. High quality men aren’t dealing with homeless women. High quality men want high quality women. When you are homeless people offer you scraps and expect you to receptive of it. Even when I was homeless these two men homes wasn’t good enough for me.

I never dated either one of them. Although the white one with the dog had a better chance — than the black man that offered his run down 1 room apartment. The white one had a house and more money. He gave me more money than the black man did and bought my things when we were out. With the black man he was cheap and never picked up my items when we were out.

I always hated how people gave or offered homeless people their leftovers. But I’ll never settle I don’t care how much money I have. I want to live in a nice house.
