Grammy-winning singer Tems has opened up about what she considers essential in a romantic relationship, highlighting friendliness and genuine curiosity as deal-breakers.
In a recent interview with Complex, the award-winning artist revealed that she cannot date anyone who is unfriendly or shows little interest in their partner. She described the absence of these qualities as major red flags.
“My dating terms are that someone who is not trying to be your friend is a red flag,” Tems said. “Anybody who isn’t curious about you is also a red flag. Because what are we doing? Why are we here if you don’t want to know me?”
Identifying as a lover girl, Tems explained that she is prioritising self-love and taking a cautious approach to relationships due to past experiences. She advised ending relationships with partners who show no interest in truly getting to know their significant other, emphasizing that mutual curiosity and friendship are crucial for a healthy partnership.
