Why do black marriages fail?
Due to recent cultural values many African Americans home are led by one parent, this gives a different view of what marriage means and what they will except or expect from the opposite sex because marriages sometimes fail.

What does marriage mean to African Americans? In recent cultural many homes are led by one parent. Their idea of marriage is sometimes nonexistence. Their views of the idea soul mate can be a fantasy due to their personal thoughts and views and sometimes life’s challenges. Many of them imagine what the idea marriage mate should be. Due to my own personal awareness and surroundings many men and women view marriage as strength the ability to run the household, raise the children and have a financial independence. They think this will enable them to become people whether it is the woman or the man.

They want to marry someone that can provide a stable foundation and most importantly honesty and what they call the meet me halfway rule in all aspects.
