Tiny and Toya talk it up with Honey Mag

On Love and Relationships…

Honey: What’s your philosophy on love and dating?
Tiny: One thing I always say for a relationship is that however you start is how you should finish. I hate for a man to start a relationship and things seem so nice and then it gets old and he stops doing all those things. If those are the things that made me fall in love with him, then he needs to do those things periodically in the relationship or the relationship will go stale. I think that really helps you feel wanted when it’s old.
Toya: Just take your time in a relationship.

How soon is too soon to get intimate with a guy?
Toya: When you first meet him like in the first 8 months. I think that’s too soon. Some of them just want to talk to you because of who you know, who you are, what you’re doing so you have to test them out. I want to know if you like me or who I am associated with. You have to feel them out.

Do you go after a guy or do you wait for him to come to you?
Tiny: No, I never go after anybody; it’s just the woman in me. I feel like a woman should be a woman. I’m not saying that you shouldn’t. I’ve just never been the one to look desperate or look thirsty you know? If a man is into you, and you’re into him, you can do little things, little signs. You look hard enough and if you don’t get any response than that’s not for you. But I’m not gonna be like, ‘Oh hey! Hi, how you doing?’ No, that wouldn’t be cool. I will be the one sitting and waiting on you.

Toya: I never really went after a guy. Not that its bad; if you like someone there’s nothing wrong with letting them know you like them. But I never really had to go at a guy or approach a guy like, ‘Oh I’m going to get you.’ Guys have just always spoken to me.

Bad guy or good guy? Who are you more attracted to and why?
Tiny: Honestly I’ve always been into the bad boy – I can’t lie. Something about the bad boy just attracts me, just gets my attention you know? There are some good guys that I can think of now that can be sexy, now that I’m older. But when I was younger, it would always be the bad boy.

Toya: I don’t like a softy softy but I don’t like a thug either. The reason why is because I don’t need any thugs around me. I have a daughter. I need someone who is well-established, not into a lot of BS, and very family-oriented. Someone that is cool and not on no dumb stuff. You can’t just bring everybody around your kids. I’m dating. I need someone I can bring home to my daughter. Not just anybody can come around her.

So you’re dating Toya? Who are you dating right now?
Toya: I am dating. I’m not going to say who I’m dating, though…

For the single mothers out there, what kind of qualities do you think they should be looking for in a man?
Toya: Somebody who is honest and loyal. Someone that treats them like a queen. They still have good men out here that are respectful. Also, if they do have kids, they should be willing to accept you guys as a package deal and not take the mother without the kids.

Toya, what have you’ve learned from your relationship with Lil’ Wayne?
Toya: I learned a lot. I watched Wayne go into different phases. Each phase I learned something new. As far as his love for women; he’s not really a one woman man. I had to deal with that. I am kind of happy because he made me stronger. No BS. I learned a lot from being Lil’ Wayne’s wife. As long as I’ve held grudges I’ve learned to let it go.
