[@jackiebarajas4473]

So happy for her

[@Therezumee92]

Nelly does have a point about time. It lets you mature and with that also comes introspection and growth. I think many people would have happy relationships with their exes after a decade apart. Not many just have an ego that would let to admit own mistakes and begin fresh. Happy for them Iwas a massive Nelly fan a while back, some good songs he had. Ashanti was my fave in acting actually.
