Last night, I checked out VH1's new Sunday night line up. I liked all 3 new shows which consisted of:
Brandy & Ray J:
A Family Business,
Basketball Wives ( I can see the drama unfolding...), &
What Chilli Wants. I took an immediate liking to
What Chilli Wants. WCW focuses on Rozonda Thomas, who we know as Chilli from "TLC", searching for a man. And not just any man. She has a
list of requirements. Chilli states on the show that she compromised in the past & she's not doing that anymore. She wants the total package. ;-)
A few things from her list of must-haves:
1. Doesn't smoke
2. Doesn't drink
3. Can't eat pork
4. 6 pack stomach (but she said she'd settle for a 4 pack)
Chilli is getting a lot of slack for her list because most think she's looking for a man that doesn't exist. The perfect man. From the few things they've listed I see nothing wrong with the list. *looks around* There's nothing wrong with having standards. I got pretty much everything (and more) I wanted in Reign. Knowing what you need/want/ in a man & what you won't deal with is the most important part of picking a mate. Some women wait until they're in a relationship to figure out what they want from a man. I used my list as a way to pick the man I wanted to be in a relationship with. For example, I could have never.dealt.with.a.smoker. There was no compromising on this! I'm not kissing someone who tastes like a pack of cigarettes. 0_0
Here's what Chilli says about the list:
"I definitely encourage all women to have a list. [Laughs]. C’mon now. Even you, now. You better have a check list. If you don’t, after this conversation, go ahead and start writing down the things that you need and the things that you want [from a man]. I think that’s very important."
I totally agree. She makes a very good point. How do you know what you want/need from a man if you don't make a list? What do you think about Chilli's list? Do/Did you have a list? If so, what's/what was on it? Check out what else Chilli has to say about the show
