Black Women, Dating, Margiela Tabis and Living in New York | Black and Dating in NYC EP1

Hey, YouTube Fam! This one was really fun to do! I had this idea when I first moved out here because I wanted to experience more in my dating life and talk more candidly about it with other people. There will definitely be more episodes and features on my page so be sure to subscribe if you enjoy the video! I will say this video took longer for me to edit because it's a team of just me so please be patient for the next.

If you'd like to contribute to the conversation, be sure to email emailriathecrab@gmail.com whatever is heavy on your heart regarding dating in 2024/ dating as a black woman. Together, we’ll find out why dating now feels so hard and if New York is the place to find love!
