She stated:
“I am wife material. I am not a str**walker. I am upset that I am still in the street. What’s going on?”
According to her, the major issue is not a lack of love or effort but simply not meeting the type of man she wants.
She said:
“I think the only reason I am still single is because there is not the right guys. I accept only premium guys, but I have been meeting only regulars lately. All I want is a good man. That’s my type.”
Tamar also acknowledged that her strong personality may be playing a role in her dating struggles.
She stated:
“Yes, my personality may come off as intimidating and some men may not have the confidence of approaching me because they may be thinking that they can’t meet my standards.”
The singer said some men get uncomfortable around women who know what they want and are vocal about it.
But she insisted she’s not trying to scare anyone away; she simply refuses to compromise her worth.
Despite standing firmly by her standards, the singer admitted she is now working on finding balance.
“But right now, I am trying to ditch being an alpha female and be more soft. I am working on it every day,” she revealed.
