Debbie Allen and her husband, former NBA player Norman Nixon have been married for 38 years and counting and I'd just like to say, Lord, I've seen what you've done for others and I am ready to receive this blessing over my life. Debbie, who married her husband in April of 1984, wished her husband a "happy anniversary" in an Instagram post. If my future husband can't get nasty with me on the dance floor to Drake like this when we're 70 years old, I don't want him. She wrote in the post:

"Happy Anniversary to the love of my life, Norm. So thankful to have you as my forever dance partner. 36 years and counting, baby!"

The couple, who share two children together along with one from Norman's previous marriage, are normally tight-lipped when it comes to their relationship and honestly, that might be one of the keys to their marital success. One thing's for sure, Debbie and Norman epitomize Black love at its finest.

'Post-Birth Control Syndrome' Is Real. Here's How To Deal.

My personal relationship with birth control pills is a bit of an odd one. Back when I first became sexually active (I started having sex with my first boyfriend a couple of months shy of 19), I took them for a couple of months, didn’t like how they made me feel, and so I quit using them altogether (and got pregnant almost immediately after). The rest of my adult life, I stayed off of the pill and pretty much only used condoms (and even then, not consistently — SMDH).

And yet here I am, now, all these years later, back on them again: surprise, surprise.
