“I don’t really view them as failures. I don’t think of it that way. I don’t view them as successes, don’t get it twisted… but I think of them as experiences and I really can’t compare the two.”

Asked why did her second marriage fail, she claimed that they decided to ignore the little issues, and they eventually grew into insurmountable problems. The mom of one added:

“We brushed the [warning signs] under the rug.Cracks become craters. Little things that you see in your relationships and your friendships… I feel like in our personal lives, we don’t [acknowledge them]. I think men are just better about that than women.”

“I’m not dating now.I wish that my dating life were as colorful and exciting as it’s written about, but right now I’m kind of at a standstill. I’ve been – I’ve dated this year. I’ve had a lot of different experiences, but I have a daughter and I am still married.”

The host also asked her what kind of man she is looking for, and she replied by saying that she needs someone who can handle her. She shared:

“I don’t know what my judgment is. I don’t know what I’m looking for, and I don’t know if I’m looking for anything. I think the kind of guy that I would need to be with has to be able to handle me, which is a tall order.”
