NELLY AND ASHANTI: BREAKING UP IS HARD TO DO

Rapper Nelly and former Murder Inc Princess Ashanti have called off their five year relationship. This comes after Ashanti reportedly said that marriage was definitely in the cards. Some reports say that Nelly has moved on to other women quickly, while Ashanti is still mending a broken heart. I think she really did see them getting married. Why else would she hang in there so long? But I’ve had a feeling for awhile that those two wouldn’t get married. If there’s no reconciliation in sight, I hope she heals and is able to move on.

Five years is a long time to be with someone. Is there a limit to how long a woman (say Ashanti) should wait for the relationship to develop into marriage?
