Are Angel Reese and Boxer Terence Crawford Dating? Page Six reports…Angel Reese towered over professional boxer Terence Crawford during her glam night out at the boxer’s fight against Canelo Alvarez on Saturday.
The WNBA player visited Crawford in his locker room ahead of the 37-year-old’s successful showdown. Reese told Crawford, who is 5-foot-8, that the event was her “first match” before they posed for a picture together. She shared the photo via Instagram Stories, as well as mirror selfies and a glimpse of her car ride to Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium.
She and a friend watched Crawford win via unanimous decision, taking away Alvarez’s undisputed middleweight title. Reese was suspended from one half of last week’s game over comments she made to the Chicago Tribune that the organization felt were “detrimental to the team.” Reese, notably, told the outlet she would do “what’s best for” her after promising not to “settl[e] for the same s–t” this year. After her public and private apologies, Sky’s general manager Jeff Pagliocca claimed they had “closed the chapter on” the scandal.

The launch comes nearly two months after the beloved actor’s drowning death at age 54.

Sex & The Single Life
Kita: “When my friend died four years ago from AIDS, I stopped having sex. She and her partner contracted AIDS and both died. I’m abstaining because I don’t trust men anymore, and I don’t want to take the chance of sleeping with someone whom I really care about, and he’s sleeping somewhere else. I’m happier now than I’ve been in a long time. I have what I call platonic dates, and I sleep well at night…alone.” MORE

How To Get
What You Want
by Terri Smith
I finally learned the secret to getting true romance the way I want it. It took some bangs and scratches along the way, which involved crying my heart over many, a “star-studded jerk.” But I finally got it. Here are the best ways to captivate the interest and heart of the guygirl of your choosing. In other words, strategize instead of dramatizing. Never show anger – When you feel wronged – perfect an impassive look – When you don’t telegraph your emotions, it throws the guilty party off balance into a state of bewilderment. MORE

Cindy – “I met a guy for dinner on our first date. He was quite attractive and extremely interesting. I was impressed with him overall, and his professed interest in art. The evening went very well, and when the waiter brought the check, I was convinced that we were mutually enchanted. But when we got outside the restaurant, he blew me a kiss, without even asking me if I had a lift home. He never called again, and I still sometimes wonder what went wrong.” MORE

When Women Do
The Pursuing …
by Dani Stone
Recently, a close friend asked a very attractive co-worker, whom she’d been admiring for quite some time, if he would join her for drinks after work, and he declined the offer. Of course, her ego took a serious plunge, and she berated herself for two days because she felt she had set herself up for rejection. However, I’ve found that the times and attitudes have become such that more and more women are asserting themselves on the dating scene, and some are getting great results. I talked to a number of men and women on this subject and they were candid. MORE

Q. A year ago, my boyfriend of three years finally proposed to me, but he didn’t have the money to buy me a ring,. So, he asked me to buy my ring, and he would reimburse me later.

Since that time, he called off the engagement and is refusing to reimburse me for the purchase of the ring. I want to take him to court and try to get my money back, but everyone says I don’t have a case, and that I would look ridiculous. What do you say? MORE

How He Really
Feels About You
by Theo McNee
My friend Syl was miserable because he had been caught in a lie by his girlfriend about why he couldn’t make it to another one of her family gatherings. Like me, he couldn’t lie well. And because of this, he always ended up giving a flimsy excuse in place of the truth. As we sat watching the game, he began to pace back and forth and mumble out loud, “Why didn’t I tell her the truth? Why didn’t I tell her that I was not ready to be looked over and examined like a new prized bull? Why didn’t I tell her that, though we are a couple, I wasn’t ready for her mother or father to ask if we were serious or for her favorite aunt to tell me how great a wife she’d make.” MORE

How To Be
Chosen In
The Crowd
by M.K. Allison
At a packed party recently, I noticed several women sitting alone waiting for someone to notice them and give purpose to their being there. Most stared off into space, while others complained loudly that the men in the room were backward because they failed to approach. I watched from a position of comfort as I stood amid three guys I’d enticed into a debate about a controversial current event while trying to decide who was the most interesting. MORE

23 Steps To
Your Best Self…

Consider The Following:
- Your Mind – The Bible says, “Bring your thoughts into captivity.” You must watch over what you think. Guard your thoughts as if your life depended on them. It does. Fight hard against ugly intrusions by focusing on the beauty in your life. Counting your blessings keeps life’s disruptions in perspective.
- Adopt A Position – Develop personal principles or standards and stick to them…regardless of the challenge. Have something you stand for and let it be known. It draws serious respect to the corner you occupy.
- Ask For Direction – Stop making your own decisions. Pray for guidance in everything on a daily basis. MORE
