By Kerri Sheehan

Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas of the girl group TLC revealed that her two-year relationship with R&B singer Usher was not what inspired his 2004 album Confessions. In an interview with UsMagazine.com Thomas said, “We were together when he recorded that album. All of those songs on Confessions, that was about Jermaine Dupri’s situation. Usher was just singing it. But people kind of bought into it, it was just the timing of our breakup when the album came out.” She also said that the two broke up because it was just the time, but he was her first real adult love. She affirmed that she would always love Usher despite that the two broke up in 2003.

Cupid’s Advice:

Let Cupid help you decide if your love is for real:

1. Butterflies: When you’re truly in love you can feel it in your heart. Even if you’ve been dating for years they should still have the ability to give you internal butterflies.

2. You don’t question it: If you’re truly in love then you shouldn’t even have to ask this question. When you feel the love you know it and you want the world to know.

3. You’re truly happy: When you’ve found the one you everything else in your life should fall into place with time. If being with your mate feels like too much work then one of you is probably in it for the wrong reason.
