BlogXilla & Brooke of Harlem Heights – Cupcakes & Sex

Brooke and I sat down for a delicious cupcake from Crumbs in NYC, and well the conversation with to… you guessed it, Sex. Check out our video. The homegirl Brooke has been really busy lately, she also sat down with Necole B. for an in depth and very candid interview. One thing I noticed about Brooke is that she is a real person. She’s not stuck up, or anything like that I would say she’s the cool friend everyone has, I digs her. Here is an excerpt to Necole’s interview with Brooke.

I recently did a post about women settling for less. Since you’ve been in a relationship with such a high profile person, do you have ridiculously high standards?
I don’t really go into anything with standards because I don’t have a type and a lot of the things that I experienced with that high profile relationship were things that were new to me. I don’t think two years is long enough time to get accustomed to eating a certain way, or dressing a certain way or living a certain way. It was actually a very easy transition for me to come back to New York City in Harlem full time and back to my life as Brook full time. I didn’t really struggle with that. Now, it sucks to not be able to afford all the things that you could imagine but that stuff is ….”Where are you wearing that?”. I don’t have to go to those events anymore anyway so I don’t need to dress like that.

So I think my standards are moreso now about things that matter. Someone who makes me laugh. My standards are just to be with someone who digs me more than I dig them because all my life I’ve been chasing guys. I see something I like and I go after that. Maybe it’s time for me to stop and let somebody dig me. Let somebody put up with the things that I use to put up with. My standards is just to find someone who really likes me.

And that leads me into my next question, What type of woman are you in a relationship?

Honestly, I’m not very submissive and I’m not very girly girl. I’m the guy’s girl. I’m cool. I like to let my man feel like a man but I’m the partner. I don’t mind pulling my weight. I don’t mind equal, although I am not about going dutch just because I feel like you have to draw the line somewhere. This is a relationship because it’s A,B & C. I’m very affectionate. I’ve very needy. I love to spend a lot of my time with my guy. I’m more like a homie lover friend.

You made a comment on the Global Grind interview about “it’s weird seeing your ex being intimate with someone that looks like you” referring to Keri Hilson, How does it feel seeing him with a girl like Amber Rose?

It really doesn’t feel like anything because if people remember correctly, I’ve had more than enough time to get over that break up. He had a fiance for 18 months and so I’ve totally moved on from that relationship and that relationship ended amicably. People always want to say “Oh he dissed you” and maybe because people think that he broke up with me that maybe I keep an eye on who he’s dating.
