Lori ‘keep a man’ Harvey opened up about love in all its forms for Essence’s Black Love Issue
“This moment is about me,” Harvey, 25, shared with the magazine of where she’s at in life right now. “I feel like it’s always been about me attached to something or someone. This time, it’s about me. Self-love, self-care, self-reflection.
The new issue is the outlet’s Black Love Issue and highlights different variations of what love looks like, from self-love to relationships.
Harvey had a lot to say about her own relationship with love, whether it’s with others or with herself.
“I know my worth, and I know my value. I’m not going to compromise that, or settle, or accept anything less than what I know I deserve,” she shared.
The SKN by LH CEO has made headlines for her high-profile relationships, including one with Michael B. Jordan, but she thinks it’s about time she’s seen for her accomplishments, and given some grace for having to grow up in the spotlight.
“My experience has taught me that I need somebody who respects me—somebody who understands and respects my standards and my boundaries and is a supportive, God-fearing man, family-oriented, and makes me feel at peace.”
“That’s where I’m at in my life right now. I’m not compromising my peace and happiness for anything or anybody. And so if I see any signs of that happening, I’m like, ‘Got to go!’”
We wish her the best of luck on her journey! #BWLM💕
