On Sunday (Sept. 1), Nicki opened up to the Barbs and advised women who are in an abusive relationship to try and get out of their situation.
"When u see a woman in a toxic relationship, rather than laugh & say mean things, try to offer sound advice from your heart & root for her to learn her worth," she tweeted.
"We’ve all been there. I saw my parents fight & argue non stop & never divorce, so I thought this was normal behavior" Minaj wrote on Twitter.

Nicki proceeded on to talk about being in an abusive relationship. "I really used to think love had to hurt. So I could never look down on anyone else. We are merely human," she wrote.
Minaj added "It’s not easy to leave. Especially in the world of IG where all ppl want to do is post relationship goal pics for clout & attention. A man should make you feel safe, not afraid."
The 36 year-old rapstress recalled how scared she was in her past abusive relationship. "I remember being so afraid to speak cuz I never knew when that person would be in a particular mood and I could maybe say one wrong thing that would get me hit," she admitted.
Minaj continued "So the diff you see in me now is that feeling when a woman feels lifted up, safe, appreciated & unconditionally loved."
The "Megatron" rapper hopes for people to judge less and uplift more. "But I first had to learn how to love MYSELF," she continued.
"If you wouldn’t let a man treat your mother, your sister or best friend like that b/c you LOVE them, then you wouldn’t let a man treat YOU like that b/c you love YOU. This isn’t about judging. We judge too much. Lift them up."
In other Nicki Minaj related news, she is currently in a happy relationship with her fiancé Kenneth "Zoo" Perry. The couple are expected to get married very soon.

A man who loves you does not:
1. Humiliate you on social media
2. Beat you
3. Cheat on you
4. Call you out of your name/put you down to lower your self esteem due to his own insecurities.
5. Hide his phone, passwords, where abouts, etc.
