Save It! The Worst Relationship Advice From Black Rom Coms

You should always maintain power in your relationship

This movie, though immensely entertaining in my opinion, is chock full of all types of bad relationship advice. The whole movie, as the title would suggest, is based on the premise that you can control a man (and woman) through the use of manipulative tactics and tricks. Shante (Vivica Fox) is discouraged when she finds her man out dancing with one of his female coworkers, when he claimed he had to work late. Well, instead of having a real conversation with him about how his behavior was unacceptable, she went through a long and exhausting series of games in order to punish him and realize the error of his ways. She’d do things like pretend she didn’t care, rush him off the phone when they were talking, offer to pay the check when they went out and seduce him, knowing she was just going to withhold sex. Crazy. The only redeeming factor in this movie is that at the end of it, Shante realizes when you really love someone, there’s really no need for the madness.
