: MediaTakeOut.com told you in the past that comedian/actress Mo'Nique agreed to have an open marriage with her husband. But now, Mo'Nique, in a recent interview with Barbara Walters, is saying that the "open" part of the relationship is for her husband ONLY!!
Here's a quote from Mo: “Let me say this: I have not had sex outside my marriage with Sidney. Could Sid have sex outside of his marriage with me? Yes. That's not a deal-breaker. That's not something that would make us say, 'Pack your things and let's end the marriage.’
What if it's 20 times? So what? We've been best friends for over 25 years, and we truly know who we are. Oftentimes, people get into marriages and they don't know who they're laying next to. I'm very comfortable and secure with my husband. Well that don't seem fair. If he can have 20 . . . why can't she???
Nothing wrong with that. If that's the understanding Monique and her husband has, then it's cool. If Monique doesn't want to have affairs outside her marriage and she's cool with her husband doing, that's cool for them. I wouldn't do that but my standards don't necessarily has to be someone ele's.
Good morning my MTO peeps,
I'm back!
I've ALWAYS had doubts about Monique - from her constant stereotypical roles and jokes about thin women...
She's up there w/Steve Harvey for me... just too phony. Whites gave threw her a bone, and skipped past ALL the other truly talented Black actors and actresses.
Monique has a long way to go... and Gabby's mother needs to pull her child a little bit away from this woman.
NO! ALL Ya'LL thats callin her stupid are DUMB! You think if someone DOESN't ALLOW their mate to cheat it wont happen? You can get a disease if cheatin is agreed upon or secretly done. We are all human, people are attracted to other people, ya'll dont know how many times he cheats. It could be once every year. They might just want to be commited to each other & have that title because no one will ever take each others place. It dont get no more honest than this. Love her decision. Ya'll *** are in denial if you think your boyfriend,girlfriend,doesnt cheat.
Whatever she went through in her life left this goofy *** with the lowest self-esteem I've ever seen. This dude was probably just WAITING for the last dude to get out the way, so he could marry her stupid azz and play her like a flute. I feel bad for talented actresses all over, because many of them can't get work, but the networks turn around and give this dysfuntional hoe a TV show. Crazy!!!
A**HOLES WHAT SHE IS SAYING IS GO HEAD AND DO HIM....(WHICH SHE KNOWS HE ISN'T GOING TO DO)..... IF YOU GIVE A MAN SOME KIND OF OPENING THEY WONT WANT TO CHEAT.... WHY SMOTHER SOMEONE.... BUT IF HE DOES CHEAT DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT SHE WOULD STAND FOR IT??... HELL NO .... SHE PLAYIN IT COOL.. OF COURSE MONIQUE AINT GOIN SAY WHAT SHE WOULD DO IF HE DID STEP OUT THE MARRIAGE.... AT THE END OF THE DAY IT AINT MINES NOR YOUR BUSINESS TO TEND TO.... BY THE WAY AINT YA CELL PHONE BILL DUE??.... GO HANDLE THAT... LMAO
Maybe she knows her husband better than anyone else. Maybe he's not cheating, but there are those times when you are in a relationship and have the urge to "get out" for a quick minute, it is up to the person "getting out" to make sure nothing comes back home. That doesnt mean that he doesnt love her, he just wants something diff every now *** then. That may just spice up their relationship. Sounds like they r some freaks to me. On the other hand, it could also mean tht Mo has some self esteem issues and feels tht she cant do better. Hmm who knows?
Monique is an insecure to make a statement like that. That says to you Mo that you know and you've accepted the fact that you can't hold it down for your husband. *** what's wrong with you. Your husband is a straight player and your marriage is meaningless. Are you smoking? Now I respected her but as far as family and relationships. Your gonna accept your husband sleeping with Tom, Michael and Jane and bring his musty nuts back to your house and wash his *** with the same towels your children use. *** you are sick.
ANY WOMAN THAT SAYS SHE DON T CARE IF HER HUSBAND SLEEPS WITH ANOTHER WOMAN IS A DAM LIE! WHY GET MARRIED? You DEFINITELY can NOT stop any one from sleeping with anyone if that is what they want to do but for her to have that LOW self esteem to know that heR man IS sleeping with other women and she know it---SHE HAS A PROBLEM WITH HERSELF! He I am sure is ok with it-- it takes the pressure off him to sneak around since she has openly given him to any woman that is dumb enough to get with him! WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO-----AN END!
I donno all about this one, one hand it's str8 on the other hand when you say them vows all of that crazyness is suppose to be thrown out the window including havin *** outside the marriage. If he ends up wit some more kids then she's the one thats gotta deal with it. But if that's her choice then it is what it is.
People cheat for two reasons either something is missing from their relationship or because they can.
If someone is cheating with multiple people then they are in need some type of counseling because something is wrong with them. Even if they were single that is nasty. (think about it) If your spouse cheat with 1 person then both of you better figure out what's wrong with the relationship and fix it.
These are just my thoughts but carry on. LOL.
She need to keep that to herself! Don't nobody wanna that she lets her man cheat!
It doesn't make her look more enlightened it make her look weak. Like she has given up on having a man be faithful to her.
If she ain't leaving if he cheats that her decision but she doesn't need to make that info public her marriage should be private.
I guess she just trying to get it out there because she thinks that him cheating is inevitable.
I always wondered about their relationship. Just because you have known someone for x amount of years does not mean you should marry them. Now, none of us really know what's in his heart, but I find it convient that after knowing each other for so long and being ok with just being friends that they decide to date and marry once she made it big. It's like those long lost dads who come back after that kids make it rich. If she was only friend material when she was broke, why did that change after 20+ years?
HE ALSO LIKES HER HAIRY LEGS, AND WHO HAS HAIRY LEGS.....MEN OR WOMEN...GO FIGURE. HE SLEEPS WITH MEN AS WELL. HE IS A LIL SWEET. THAT SHOULD NOT BE HARD TO SEE. SHE JUST WANTED TO LOCK HIM IN AS HER HUBBY CAUSE HE PROB WAS NOT READY TO BE WITH JUST ONE PERSON, AND SHE WAS LIKE...WHO SAID U ONLY HAD TO BE WITH ME? THIS EQUALS=INSECURE SHE BRINGING THAT MONEY HOME AND HE BRINGING THEM DISEASES HOME...HOW SAD!
Monique said:What if it's 20 times? So what? We've been best friends for over 25 years, and we truly know who we are. Oftentimes, people get into marriages and they don't know who they're laying next to. ------- You laying next to any h^oe he sleeping with. What she want? for him to come home and say "girl you won't believe the *** i was with last *** she was da bomb!" Monique jus alot of talk cause she make the money in that marriage and if that fool was stupid enough to come in and tell her he was with a jumpoff, oh lord ya know she gonna Chris Brown his azz!
MONIQUE IS THE PRIME EXAMPLE OF A WOMAN THAT HAS TO HAVE A MAN AT ALL TIMES...LOVES THE "MARRIED" STATUS & DOESN'T CARE WHAT THE CONDITIONS ARE... THIS IS WHAT HER 3RD OR 4TH MARRIAGE...MY POINT EXACTLY...LOST ALL RESPECT 4 HER WHEN SHE STARTED PICKING ON SKINNY PPL KNOWING DAM'*** WELL SHE WAS MISERABLE BEING FAT...BUT LOOK WHO WANT 2 BE SKINNY NOW..
Some of these men are saying a woman who finally gets it and all that stuff. These are the same men who will say a man will do to you what you let him do to you. So, with that being said if no woman stayed with her husband after she found out he was cheating and no woman had an affair with a married man or a man who was in a committed relationship, well guess what they would not do it because they can't if no one is willing to do it with them.
It is so true a man will do what you let them, if women started to stick together and say no I'm not going to stay with a cheater and no, I'm not going to have an affair then the men can't do it. If you put your foot down and show a man you are not desperate enough to deal with that they wont do it. PERIOD!
She's only PRETENDING to be happy about that. She's only PRETENDING to be happy about that. She's only PRETENDING to be happy about that. She's only PRETENDING to be happy about that. She's only PRETENDING to be happy about that. She's only PRETENDING to be happy about that. She's only PRETENDING to be happy about that.
I have read this somewhere else before. I still think it is wrong. I mean it's her life and she can do what she wants. That was her bestfriend for years and she trust him. I just can't see why should would wanna settle for being okay with her husband sleeping with other women??? I think she wants to convince herself that it is okay so she won't be hurt if she finds out he slept with someone else. Marriage vows are not meant to be disrespected like that. The union of marriage these days are all F*cked up. She has all sons too. So what type of morals and values does she think they will have??
You kn
ow it truly hurts me to hear this. I used to like Monique alot as she made it okay to be PHAT ya feel me but in the end she has lower self esteem then any big broad I know. First she goes and tries to lose a few pounds because sidney told her too, quoted of her show, and now she is saying it is okay for her man, nah her husband to be slang *** all over,like she dont have what he needs. Please. 2 thumbs down to that one.
I think this tops the list of "dumbest things I've ever read"
What if he enjoys the *** so much more with another woman and decides to just leave Mo' for the other girl?
Maybe Mo' feels insecure 'cause her husband likes to flip and throw his woman/women all over the place during *** and she knows he can't do that to her azz.
If I'm married I'd better be the one and only - I'm not sharing my man with no other woman.
That's whack.
She's not giving him permission...Some woman pride themselves on hurting other women and ruining marriages. She letting them skeezers know, if you coming this way to get your kicks out of breaking up my marriage...DONT WASTE YOUR TIME cause thats not a deal breaker. WE will decide when its over BIATCH!
No pressure and guys wont feel trapped to cheat! Just be his best friend and work out life as it comes...
Sigh . . . some folks are straight from the funny pages. If they're on the whole "we don't conform to normal standards, we define our own relationship to suit us" then why did they bother acknowledging the oldest institution of conformity and get married in the first place? If you're all about stepping outside of the norms of conventional marriage, then buck the whole *** system. It just sounds like she knows ole boy is going to step out on her, so she's making peace with it in advance. I wonder if her husband is just as "fine" with the idea of some other dude going *** deep in his wife?
Mo'Nique is SO insecure with herself. She takes on demeaning stereotypical roles and thinks nothing of it, she made that stupid book called "Skinny Women Are Evil" and now I find out she has no respect for herself and lets her husband f.uck any and everything he wants. She's gonna catch something from him if she hasn't already, and she has no one to blame but herself for tolerating his infidelity.
@ misshugrad, I totally agree. It's pathetic when people go into relationships expecting their mate to cheat. Just because you may not personally know any, there are monogamous people out there. Change your environment. Nobody has to give in to this way of living. After her first marriage, this may be Monique's way of telling herself she's compromising. However, don't compromise the sanctity of your marriage. If you'll accept this, you'll accept anything and end up with nothing.
It ain't about knowing her place. She is a beautiful woman and plenty of men would want her, just b/c certain of you don't. The thing is that many have these arrangements. I think that her decision not to sleep around is just out of respect for herself as a woman. I am sure that the open is both ways if she wished it to be.
***. If I knew she was like that, I would have married her hefty ***.
You mean, I get to live good and comfortable, fu<*** other women, go to hollywood red carpet events, and all I have to do is bang a fatty 3 or 4 times a year?
And, so what if she cheats on me. I dont really wanna fu<*** her fat a$$ anyway.
I just need to keep my abs tight and smile when I'm with her in public, so she can make people believe sombody wants her fat a$$.
until she gets AIDS
LET BE REAL FAT BYTCHES GOT LOW SELF ESTEEM!!!
I KNOW A LOT OF FAT CHICK WHO SAY AS LONG AS THEY GET THE MAN IS PAYING THEIR BILLS.
THOSE ARE CHICKS WHO KNOW THEY ARE WEAK. THEY COMMAND NO RESPECT!!!!!!!! AND RECEIVE NONE!!!
A REAL QUEEN DEMAND RESPECT AND RESPECT THEMSELEVS TOO MUCH!!!
With her philosophy i'll give him one year and some young woman is gonna end up pregnant!...Gonna set him str8 up!...Why not?...she says it's ok!...You're gonna INVITE your man to have *** with another woman?...You deserve anything he brings home to you,babies,std's.etc...Dang i thought she was strong and smart...she's weak and desperate!...Come on with the stupid version of reverse psychology!..I give YOU permission to knock your head upside a wall,money done went to her head!....No,she lost too much weight...that's what that is!..uhhhh!..Done gone HOLLYWOOD...shame!..smh.
All you females hating and disagreeing that's why you are alone and single now. Monique is on point. With men *** is equivalent to a female going on a shopping spree, its fun and it makes us feel really good,just like you feel good while your in the mall, once you leave you usually buy stuff you dont need and have no emotional attachment to. Thats the same as outside *** to a married dude.
Many of you are missing the context of what she is saying and MTO only gave PART of what she said to Barbara Walters (are any of you really surprised?). What she said is she has a marriage based on love, trust and open communication. She never said her husband was ALLOWED to sleep with other women but if he chooses to it will not be the grounds for divorce. Too many women get hung up on trying to make sure their man/husband doesn't cheat. But if it is in his nature and he was a cheater when you met him you accepted it then and theres nothing more you can do about it.
WHAT I TELL YALL ABOUT SOME FAT *** WOMEN....They take whatever they can get and however they can get it. Men ARE NOT beating their doors down for dates and or marriage. There are some beautiful women that they have to compete with so most are less confident about themselves and will do WHATEVER IT TAKES to GET or HOLD ONTO a man. I hope it's not true seeing as she faked all that confidence....told you she was FAKE AS ***..that *** no *** well she ain't happy to undress in front of that man and 5 stomachs hit the floor...WHATEVA!!!
@mybigthang..man get a new screen name i was uncomfortable type that sh!t(lol)..why would you think i would have a problem with their situation? i mean..really and truly that's how it suppose to be..but living life and conforming to these unnatural eurocentric social norms..i comply with the monogamous traditions and laws..when in rome..ya dig.
She was also saying in so many words that there are more important factors in a marriage that need attention. Whether he cheats or not isn't one of them for her. Hell, he was her friend of 25 years before they married. How many of you can't focus on any other part of your relationship other than whether your man is creepin with his baby momma or a chick from the club? None of you have room to judge what she focuses on in HER marriage. A lot of your grandmothers, mothers and aunts dealt with the same thing and I'm sure most of you have too and you stayed...with no open relationship agreement!
swtchocolatykizz...VERY SMART COMMENT AND OH SO TRUE...and for the other poster that stated she didn't say it was ok BUT if he does it's not grounds for divorce...COME ON THAT"S AN OPEN INVITATION THAT IF HE DOES..SHE WILL BE OKAY..SO DON'T YOU THINK HE'LL DO IT..JEESH!!!!! Women have got to be HAPPY WITH THEMSELVES...when you are YOU WILL NOT TAKE ANY FORM OF *** FROM A MAN..PERIOD. I have had relationships that have failed..but I better have the UPMOST RESPECT OR HIS *** CAN KICK BRICKS.
@Stophatin....Your point is valid however whats the difference between whether you know he's cheating and if you don't know he's cheating but have suspicions? Its all about how you react to it. Many women, not just fat, insecure women take back cheating spouses. Many marriages, not just celebrity marriages, are open. I'll just assume that you're always sure your man isn't cheating on you as most woman like to think. But when you remove that equation from your relationship and not worry about it is when you have less stress. Thats all Mo'Nique said.
And it doesn't mean she's ok with it like "Oh ok, honey you cheated but all is right with the world anyway!". I'm sure the marriage will be strained but it still isn't grounds for divorce...for her. Many couples deal with this....they get counseling and the marriage goes on. I am all for not trying to control another person in a relationship. An individual is responsible for his/her own actions and if you chooses to stray thats on you. My decision to stay or leave is purely up to me and no one else not even him.
UGH Monique works my *** nerves from her loud screechy *** overly dramatic big mouth to her skinny *** jokes. She sounds like a real donkey here, her husband can go around banging random chicks and bringing home nasty *** STD's to her and that sh*t is ok? Whatever happened to the sanctity of marriage? It's not ok for either to go out and cheat, if you’re gonna do that then what’s the point of being married? She sounds like a royal idiot. Or maybe her big *** just too lazy to please her husband so she sends him off to other women's houses to get satisfied. Please, the *** need to go shave them grizzly *** legs, loose a few more pounds and go take care of her man before he leave her *** for someone else.
@ tuff-tony lol yeah man I've been meaning to change it lol....the reason I say that is because you seem to be very big on black men/women love, marriages and respect towards their partner.....but that's real though....I totally understand where you're coming from....but you're going to have a tough time convincing the women of mto on those ideals...
It's not true that ALL men will cheat...some men love their wives,and are devastated when they found out that it is SHE that has broken the vows!....But as someone said...a man will go as far as you LET him go...but if he KNOWS he has a GOOD woman at home, believe me he is NOT gonna mess that up!..He MIGHT cheat but he'll put the jumpoff down before he lets that good woman LEAVE him and go to another man!.He has NO REASON to respect monique becoz she doesn't demand it!..Get tested regularly Mo!
LIKE I SAID EARLIER IT CLEAR THAT MO NEEDS A MAN TO FEEL VALIDATED...THATS A SIGN OF INSECURITY & SHE KNOW HE REALLY DONT WANT HER SO SHE TRYNA PUT IT OUT THERE B4 THOSE PICT SURFACE FROM A PAPPARAZZI & SHE WANT LOOK STUPID...SHE KNOW DAM'*** WELL SHE NOT OK WITH THAT MESS...JUST MAKING EXCUSES 4 HIS HOE AZZ...Y EVEN BOTHER GETT'*** MARRIED IF ROAMING IS EXCEPTABLE?
I know she can't be all the way happy wit her man sleepin' with multiple women. But Monique is willing to put her man selfish desires over her own, and this shows she has no issues with compromising. I think it shows a lack of appreciation and selfishness on his end tho. More power to her. She deserve better tho.
Right when people are trying to see her as more than a ghetto cornball she eff up and say something stupid as that. She's d-list at best but she's slidding on down to the z-list with NewYork, Snookie and Hoopz. Her husband must treat her like a fat chic in private and her self esteem is ***. Feeling like she deserve to be disrepected. she's dumb!
plainjane74 and swtchocolatykizz... VERY SMART AND CLASSY PEOPLE...and I respect both you guys opinions. That's a part of life to agree to disagree. Chuckle...and about the marriage a farce thing...Oh I have a tale that would have all the mouths gaped open. But I still believe in REAL LOVE and REAL MEN..they are out here. I've been told many times that I always want to wear the pants in the relationship. Maybe I do..but I definitely wouldn't have the sharing *** going on and to say of if you cheat..you know the saying YOU GIVE A NEGRO AND INCH AND HE'LL TAKE A MILE...
Ok give him the benefit of the doubt...he wears Condoms!...but what about feelings?...Suppose she continue to let him have relationships with these women and he falls in LOVE with one of them?.Oh!...AND gets her pregnant!?....That's when she's suppose to lose it huh?...Riiight.*nod-smiles*.LMAO..It is to laugh!...Retract Mo...
She already know he's gonna cheat on her big a$$, so she's not in denial or fooling herself into thinking he's gonna be faithful. That's the lowest form of no self-esteem I have ever seen. Best friend or not, she sounds real stupid. It aint a nicca in this world that will have me gone in the head like that, to think that he can do what the *** he want!!! I think not. She's just stupid!
Half of these comment state any relevance, marriage is marriage and what Monique advertising is politically incorrect no man and women has the right to cheat on his/her spouse. What ignorance is she passing in to our children the it's ok for daddy to sleep with other women and mommy's content with that hello folks there are too many sexual transmitted diseases out here to allow your self to be subjected to that type of behaviors it always true ignorance is bliss cause she wouldn't want media to get a hold of the scandel.
She just as well count the money when he girls bring it in!...Coz we call him a *** where i'm from!...I'll bet yall any amount of Money she addresses this on her show SOME kinna way...Coz she knows this puts her in a bad light.Come on MO get back on track!.For real...MTO got that celebrity viewership, they read it!
You know, I would usually agree with her and can definitely understand because men are gonna cheat anyway. That's just how it is, so you might as well know about it and accept it. If not, then bounce! I don't think that's low self esteem or insecurity, but just reality. But the problem with all that is STD'S!! He could possiblr bring her somethin' that she won't be able to get rid of. And these men are not always protecting themselves like they should and would lie big time about whether they have "something" or not. That's just a little too risky to me. Her life and health are way more import
@Stophatin...Thank you! I respect your opinions as well and I think you're one classy lady, too! I am a firm believer of people living in their own truths no matter how unorthodox. This may not be the norm for conventional marriages but let's face fact, a lot of spouses are living and delaing with repetitively cheating spouses and they stay together because the marriage is built on more than a sexual connection. Not many people know that this is how Ossie Davis & Ruby Dee's marriage lasted til death did they part.
(cont) important. I just hope that they both get checked reguraly. It's all fun and games until someone catches something! And then what if he end up messin with some crazy psycho b*tch that won't be willing to let go so easily and stirr up some drama?? And what if he ends up falling in love with someone else?? That's ALWAYS possible. So it's a lot of down sides to an open marriage. I think I would rather just be alone...
WTF???? This just goes to show that Monique Fat azz is not happy adn it is all just a front!!! IF she so big and fabulous then why settle for a cheat. What is he going after that she can't give him at home? Just to say you got a husband is dumb as ***!! He should love her enough and should she should be enough women for him where
he don't want to be with another women. What in the hell is she saying to her daughters??? In this day and age getting a STD is like taking a drink of water and when he sit up and give her azz one she will be lookin foolish!!!! He is a producer on her show so therefore he is making money off her....I remeber one *** she said
mythangBIG..yeah man..i am very big on those things..been married 17 years..never strayed. but above and beyond those things you mentioned i'm even bigger on keeping my word. and i vowed to be with only her til death. it's the society we live in. and you are right..ain't no way i will convince any of these sistas or the one i married that the traditional polygamist family is the natural order of things..you know how many frying pan knots a brother will catch talkin like that.
DOLL11-ONE...i think i agree with you on her situation..as for me i got ideas about how i'd like our society to be..but they don't always coincide with the reality of how i live my life in this society. i know how you sista are when someone ain't on the up an up..a brother better duck and take cover. alright take care sista.
@ tuff-tony lol I know it would never fly at my house either...well said...@ Doll I agree with you on the cheating part also....I'm just saying that there are many men who would love this situation....but the more I think about it....why would I want a woman who would allow me to break the vows of marriage and remain content with me as her husband?....I think she's lying about not stepping out....
Grown folks businesss. She should have kept it to herself. just because she says its not a deal breaker, doesnt mean he's got bittches falling out around him offering him pucci. Like the woman says, they have been FRIENDS for 25 years. They are tight and no biitch will tear them asunder. In 25 years, most of y'all will have gone with and broken up with as many men. You date, he cheats, you break up, you date, he cheats, you break up, you date, YOU cheat, you break up. And in 25 yes twenty five years, there will be a very bitter taste in your mouth coming from your bile duct.
I don't even care for Monique but I'm surprised ..well ok NOT surprised..at the level of venom being thrown all because of an interview thats probably being taken ENTIRELY out of context. Is original thought rigor mortised up in this biitch? Really? Low self esteem? Monique? A FAT, UNATTRACTIVE, LOUD BLACK WOMAN..supposedly so many strikes against her I lost count, goes from being whoever the hell she WAS--to a Oscar nominated (albeit for ***) actress, accomplished comedian and talk show host and SHE got low self esteerm. I want some of her low self esteem.
I'll be married 18 years in May and I also married my best friend. Call it crazy but all the folks I know who divorced didn't have the same openess (by that I mean talking) as the couples I know who openly shared fantasies and invited others into their bedrooms. Until you are in their shoes, how can you say what is wrong for THEM? People tell me and my husband how much we are doing better than most, considering the statistics. 18 years is rare in marriages. Do YOU and let others do what is right for them. It's not as rare as you think. But why talk about it if it's between huband and wife?!
If dude is using her, spending her money on hoes, calling her fat and making her cry then yeah, she a fool. However Her career matters to her and it requires her to travel extensively. She has known him long enough to know certain things about him, like maybe he has a high *** drive that she is unable to fulfill. IF he partakes, she has created an environment through FRIENDSHIP so that here IS NO NEED FOR HIM TO LIE about it, IF it happens. . I can only speak for myself but I'm more afraid of lies than I am of truth.
Can I also point out that Mo already opened this door in an interview she did, along with Jill Scott, some years ago in Essence magazine. Jill pretty much called Mo "crazy" and how she and her man are for ONLY each other. Uh, last I checked Jill lost that same man she sang about, shaved her head and ***! Mo... still married to dude she grew up with from the hood. You can't judge folks. It may not be right for YOU. Don't mean it ain't right for others! Do You, Mo!
@ Doll11 I agree with you about it being a personal decision but I have a feeling that Monique has dealt with things like this in the past...so she has made the decision to marry her "friend" of 25 yrs and allow him to sleep around....this can be a dangerous situation....but they seem happy...that ***.ga is smilin his *** off thinking about his side piece....
@FabulouSweetie... Yes, we were married in 1992 and even then open marriages we alive and well. I was 20, he was 21. I just think it's amazing how naive and closed minded WE can be. Her marriage isn't a joke but what is is all this "Men will cheat anyway" and "Stupid black woman". Haha! Last I checked black women aren't getting married much. All this, "Ainy enuff guud men" BS! Again, you fail to realize WOMEN are just as much into telling their husbands how it's gonna be and you know what? He don't want no one but them and wishes not to have lovers of his own!
Well, she IS honest about it. The truth of the matter is, MOST men cheat. I'm not condoning it, I'm not saying it's fair, but it's the truth. Its the nature of the beast. However, how realistic is it for a woman to be ok w/ her husband openly getting it in w/ as many women as he pleases? Now that part is crazy. Sure they are best friends and I believe Monique has sincere confidence in their bond. But just b/c he loves her and they're bestfriends doesn't elimate the possibility of him bringing home hiv or some nasty std/sti. Confidence is great, but let's not be CRAZY.
Go' head Mo'Nique.
We all know men cheat. What the heck! She knows her man - no sense in pretending. Will and Jada have something similar in their marriage -- may not be AS open - but they both know -- you ain't dead -- and this keeps everyone on their toes.
Bet that 6-pack having - chisseled Adonis you married - would not have turned into a big fat, sloppy couch potatoe that he is now -- if he had competition!
A whole bunch of folks would not be trippin' about Tiger if they knew how unhappy he was - with that skinny frigid stick he has to sleep with every ***.
Come on Mo, you know better then that! Stop tripping you are from B-More and we don't play that! Don't let this Hollywood lifestyle get to your head! Sharing your husband? let's get real you came to far to go out like that. You deserve a man that will be your one and only! Pick up your self -esteem! Big is Beautiful!!
That *** sounds stupid as hell, all shedoing is giving the black man anthr reason not 2 take his VOWS seriousily! And it's sad that a woman doesn't think enough of herself 2 feel as his WIFE, u feel yo HUSBAND needs othr women 2 plz him... Shows u what she thinks of herself! She lost a fan I thought she was a smart intelligent woman... Women wake up! Respect Yourselves....
If thats the way she wants to live fine, but to me that sounds like very low self esteem. Its just like saying baby you can do what ever you want to do, sleep with who you want to sleep with, just dont leave me please! uhhh NOT!! I love myself enough to know that there was a man that will love me and only want me. Come on ladies...this sharing shh is getting out of hand. Marriage is sacred not a business deal.
Shidddddd.......I can see why!!! He is not exachtly, how shall I say.....Sexually Attractive even a little bit. Mo has lost her mind uttering some *** ish like that. Given all she has said and done over the years to representing the big girls and raising their game to a higher level, she is going to come out with this weak *** mess. She's been in Cali too long. Needs to go back to B-more to come back down to earth. Time will tell.
***!gg@'s believe anything that they read. That is a shame. Her words were clearing taken out of context. I saw the interview. She said that her marriage is open, meaning on the communication tip. Most relationship aren't open and that's why the marriage doesn't survive. Each person confiding in other people instead of each other. She ain't got low self esteem, she got an Oscar - crackheads. She just saying that infidelity isn't a concern of hers. She just keeping it real, she knows ALL men cheat (ask ya daddy) and she got enough money to deal with it.
