R&B's expert lovermen answer your questions about relationships, break-ups, casual dating, that wild freaknik ish, and everything else under the sun.

Men don't know what they got 'till it's gone and can't see a good woman even if she's right in his face.

Dear Pretty Ricky,

My brother who is 14 years older than me (I'm 16) and I have always been close and easy to get along with until he got with his wife and moved.

She's a real bossy bitch who won't let him have any fun or say in any decision, or she'll throw it in his face.

I hate to tell him and hurt him because I've already threatened to beat her ass for him as soon as she gets out of line. I think that he knows that she's a bitch, too. What should I do? Should I ignore her or kick her ass for always messing with my brother?

Ashley Moss



Ladies should only fight when absolutely necessary. Otherwise, be cute on the bitch! Smile when the hoe tries to act up. As far as your brother, he loves you. She's probably stressing him out just as much as you. Just spend as much time with him as possible and keep it positive.


Dear Pretty Ricky,

My boyfriend claims he wants to be with me and work on our relationship but I have yet to see him in two months... Is it worth holding on when I feel like I can’t go no further?

Tay


Let him go! He ain’t worth your time if he can't make time! You’re a young, beautiful, strong woman. You don't need no man. He should be chasing you shawty! Fuck him. If he ain’t been doing [it] so far he ain’t gone get right. Most women have a problem with trying to change men! Let the sorry ass men be sorry and hunt for a good one! We're out here baby!


Dear Pretty Ricky,

Hey, I started going out with this boy and he was so cool but then all of a sudden he stops calling me, and he basically starts avoiding me. He talks to everyone but me. I've made numerous attempts to see what's going on and I even messaged him and asked if his silence meant it [was] over but no response. Should I just face the facts and just leave him alone? I'm so confused I want to know what happened.

Don't stress yourself ‘bout what happened. He probably got the goodies and pulled the average "childish boy" move and ran away with “CNN headline news” for his homies. And if you didn't give it up that could definitely be the reason! Men don't know what they got ‘till it’s gone and can't see a good woman even if she's right in his face. 

Dear Pretty Ricky,

I've had only one boyfriend and he cheated on me. How do I know if he's the right guy to date?

Stephanie Adams


Leave him.

If you’re young, don't stay with a dude who's cheating on you. When you get older the situation is a little different. Most grown women have attachments and reasons why they can't leave such as shared assets, kids, etc. If you ain’t got them strings attached leave him to the dogs, BITCHES that is!
