Nicki Minaj offered some sincere advice to her fans about how to deal with toxic relationships.

In a series of tweets, the Queens rapper opened up about her parents’ marriage, toxic relationships, her own experiences with love, and self-love.

When u see a woman in a toxic relationship, rather than laugh & say mean things, try to offer sound advice from your heart & root for her to learn her worth. We’ve all been there. I saw my parents fight & argue non stop & never divorce, so I thought this was normal behavior...

Dear all of you beautiful souls.

A man who loves you does not:

1. Humiliate you on social media
2. Beat you
3. Cheat on you
4. Call you out of your name/put you down to lower your self esteem due to his own insecurities.
5. Hide his phone, passwords, where abouts, etc.

I rlly used to think love had to hurt. So I could never look down on anyone else. We are merely human. It’s not easy to leave. Especially in the world of IG where all ppl want to do is post relationship goal pics for clout & attention. A man should make you feel safe, not afraid

I remember being so afraid to speak cuz I never knew when that person would be in a particular mood and I could maybe say one wrong thing that would get me hit. So the diff you see in me now is that feeling when a woman feels lifted up, safe, appreciated & unconditionally loved.

But I first had to learn how to love MYSELF. đŸ™đŸŸ if you wouldn’t let a man treat your mother, your sister or best friend like that b/c you LOVE them, then you wouldn’t let a man treat YOU like that b/c you love YOU. This isn’t about judging. We judge too much. Lift them up. đŸ™đŸŸ

In July, news surfaced that Minaj and Kenneth Petty had reportedly acquired a marriage license, after Minaj announced they were dating in December 2018. Their relationship has endured its fair share of scrutiny over Petty being a registered sex offender in the state of New York, and for serving time for an attempted rape conviction and first-degree manslaughter.
