By Jennifer Ross

Ice T is heated up about the seductive pictures his wife Coco Austin posed in with Rapper AP.9, according to UsMagazine.com. While in Las Vegas replacing a very pregnant Holly Madison in a burlesque revue Peepshow, Austin poses with the rapper for what she first considers “harmless” fan photos. Feeling disrespect by his wife, Ice T tweets his anger and frustration. “Most of [the pics are] disrespectful and in bad taste. She’s made me look and feel like s–t.” Since then, Austin realizes the seriousness of the situation and publicly apologizes to her husband in several tweets. “I feel so sad. The bottom line is I love Ice & I can understand why he’s upset. There’s no excuse for my actions. I’m so sorry baby & to everyone.” The photos and tweets have since been removed from online but, nevertheless, have gone viral.

What are some ways to approach your partner when he/she has done something questionable?

Cupid’s Advice:

In one careless situation, your partner has embarrassed and hurt you. It’s not bad enough to end the relationship, but you do feel neglected or betrayed. So how do you deal with it? To make up peacefully with love, consider the following steps to approaching your delicate situation:

1. Cautiously: If the end goal is to reconcile and strengthen the relationship, the last thing you want to do is overreact. Therefore, take time alone to evaluate what you want the overall outcome to be and how you would like to accomplish this. Also, ask your partner to do the same before coming together to talk.

2. Direct talk: Once you and your mate have thought over what exactly happened, be direct about how you feel. Otherwise, how will your partner know the consequences of all his/her actions if you don’t express them? Sugar coating your feelings will only lead to repeated pain later.

3. Ask for help: In the event that you or your partner have difficulty communicating or controlling emotions, it is best to ask for assistance. You are looking for a mediator to help you two, either by profession or someone close that can remain unbiased to both sides.
