Patti LaBelle, 71, Dating Her Drummer, 41

The ReadyWriter

couple-550x360R&B legend Patti LaBelle is living a life straight out of American Gigolo, the 1980 film about an emotionally unavailable high priced male escort.

The 71-year-young songstress, who revived her career selling sweet potato pies for Wal-Mart, is dating her drummer, 41-year-old Eric Seats.

The couple met after he was hired to be her drummer last year.

“She tried to keep it quiet, but everyone around her has figured it out by now. She’s completely smitten with him,” a source told London’s Daily Mail tabloid.

LaBelle’s 42-year-old son, Zuri Edwards, is reportedly unhappy that his mother is dating a man younger than he is.

Seats is known around the music industry for targeting rich older women. He reportedly loves them then leaves them. But Patti’s friends aren’t concerned that Seats might be an American gigolo.

“She hasn’t been this happy in years,” a source confided to the Daily Mail. “Patti was so happy he moved to Philly with her. She loves having him with her all the time. She even has a big portrait of the two of them up on her wall in her bedroom,” said the source.

Seats has toured with Stevie Wonder, Mary J Blige and Missy Elliott, in addition to producing songs for Destiny’s Child, Aaliyah, 702 and Tank.

Are friendships possible once the relationship is over? Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

Can men and women remain friends after being lovers in relationships and having babies once their marriages and/or live-in situations have ended? Being civil is one thing but claiming to be the best of friends in constant contact and communication; is this a reality?

Of course, there are positive, wonderful friendships that are mutually beneficial to both friends that should last a lifetime. But then there are other relationships that should end because they are negative, destructive, or unhealthy.

My question is, are friendships possible once the relationship is over?

Conversations Of A Sistah return tonight with this topic: “When people won’t admit, how they can’t commit”

It might be a New Year but people are dealing with the same issues and one is commitment or the lack thereof.

Why do men and women marry only to have another someone on the side? Do their relationship excitements expire and they look for a zest outside of their marriages in addition to their perspective spouses? Why do men and women marry then cheat?

And I know this is not in all situations but in some cases it’s a grim reality. If you cheat during your courtship you’re likely to cheat in your marriage. Women are just as susceptible to this type of behavior as men. It’s as if, some people have a sickness and an inability to commit.

So is it true, that men want their bride plus someone else on the side? And that some women prefer their groom and another man in the room? What is this sickness and inability to be fully committed in a relationship or marriage?

“When people won’t admit, how they can’t commit”… I’m exploring this topic and discussing this issue tonight as “Conversations Of A Sistah” return on “Conversations Live” at 8:00 P.M. I will also be taking your phone calls and entertaining your opinions at 1 (347) 426-3645 use option “1′ to speak with the host!

It takes ‘TWO’ to tango…So why do women ‘WAR’ with the other-woman, when her man cheats? Tonight on Conversations Of A Sistah

The ReadyWriter

It takes two to tango…and two to cheat, yet some women solely blame the other woman when the infidelity has been exposed. Especially since both parties are equally responsible and all matters should be focused on the betrayer, the one who is actually in the relationship. So why are women so quick to attack and lay fault on the other woman?

And don’t get me wrong, the other woman, his mistress and/or ‘side piece’ should bear some responsibility as well, especially if she knew the man was married or in a relationship. Although it can be argued that she doesn’t deserve the majority of the blame, it does actually take two to tango. Yet the man will take pleasure in knowing women are squabbling over him.

So why do women feel compelled to battle and be hostile towards the other woman because of her man’s cheating, whorish ass ways?

Join me tonight at 8:00 P.M. on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via “Conversation’s Live” as I answer the question: “Why do women ‘WAR’ with the other woman, when her man cheats?

Ladies NEVER LOVE a man ‘MORE’ than he LOVES you!

Ciara and Future

A woman should never play all of her cards in one hand by loving a man MORE than he loves her. If it’s the man who shall “findeth a wife” and she’s supposed to be his good thing, then why are some woman so desperately pulling out all of her stocks with public displays of adoration?

Like for example, Singer Ciara who is totally head over heels in Love with her baby daddy, rapper, Future Hendrix. The pair recently got engaged and Ciara took to her Instagram account yesterday to express just how much she Loves her man.

Ciara and Future

However, Future (the love of Ciara’s life), has 5 or 6 babies by 3 or 4 other women. This busy rapper doesn’t seem to be as infatuated with Ciara as she is with him. Body language is everything. And Future looks like he’s already feeling the pressure of remaining faithful to just one woman.

When a woman is more into a man, than he is into her, he will no doubt hurt her in the end.
