At least the last time we checked they still have the legal "certification" of marriage!  Some people do not even have anyone to say goodmorning to not to talk of girlfriend or boyfriend!

Just wish them well and butt out of their business!

Like they asked anyone here for their opinions! Or know there is website called "Naiaraland"!

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh!

I see will Smith as a decent guy so this open marriage sounds like crap.  Well, what I am going to say next may come as a shock to you or you may call me crazy like my friends. 

You see, my friends think that I am crazy when I tell my boyfriend this “if you know you are going to cheat, please wear a condom (in case of STD’s)” They think I am encouraging him to be unfaithful.  The truth is he made it clear to me that he is not “messing” around and I have no idea if he is cheating.  I for one only put my trust in God not man and who am I to judge him.  I know he is a decent guy but decent guy make dumb mistakes too. I aint encouraging no boyfriend/husband to cheat but I will always encourage him to use a condom (in case he gets stupid)

1love

A friend of mine who lives in Nigeria used to put condoms in her husbands bag when he went on his numerous business trips. She tried explaining why but up to this day I can still not understand it.

If the trust goes out of a relationship, then whats left I wonder,  . . . . . . I just cant imagine another womans hands stroking my husbands head or chest. My husband is mine and no-one elses.

Having said that I know of 2 very upright decent men who decided to go back to Nigeria to work and I cannot believe the way they are carrying on with the girls out there. Very scary!

i absolutely agree to an open marriage,u men r so shallow,u always want to have your cake and eat it,forgetting women feel as well,u look at a beautiful woman and go mmm, well women do the same to,if only u guys knew half the things your wives thought about or did, sex is sex that's all it is people should stop attaching too much ego to it.

No way! C'mmon, how can that be,  what is the reason for the marriage then? You see, the world is coming to an end, the more reason we hear terrible things happenening. To me, this is immorality of the highest order, made  manifest in a bizaare world devoid of rules. No doubt, we are faced with a problem and that is the problem of human rights being escalated out of context.

Will Smith is a clown. I would really like to believe that he's joking.

Just in case he isn't, though, all i have to say is,  AT LEAST HE WAS HONEST !!!!

Granted, that is not an excuse for the kind of lifestyle he chooses to engage in, but I'm a huge sucker for outright honesty. I still cant get over the fact that he actually TOLD HER, ! So many men have affairs after getting married but none of the cowards have been able to say so out loud and instead leave it for the wife to deal with in private. Simply because they know they will be crucified.

Any ways, I will not have an ,  open marriage. And I know my future husband will never even suggest it because he will be a man of integrity. He will be jealous for my sake and I for his. That's what marriage should be.

What marriage should be. Should. But rarely is.
The amount of infidelity from married men is so sad to see. Women suffer so much injustices from their cheating husbands and worse still, society hardly ever frowns upon it. Instead of castigating infidelity, you hear rubbish like 'since he is still taking care of you and your children, then bear it. Men are like that'.
So what if he infects the wife with some horrible STD or even AIDS? Even in this open marriage issue what if one of the partners catches a disease? Or are STD tests a requirement from the people the couple want to have an affair with?
The world has fallen low. Disgusting things like adultery and unfaithfulness have been given attractive names like 'Open marriage' and 'swinging'.

Selfishness. 

It's nothing wrong with being selfish as long as it has to do with self-respect.
Maybe you think you don't deserve a man on your own.

Better having anyone to say goodmorning, but still being able to say good morning to one's own reflection in the mirror than saying goodmorning to a stranger in your bedroom and not being able to say good morning to yourself. I've been single for more than 5 years, it wasn't that bad.

Best regards,

Are you saying that, since Will Smith and Jada Pinkett have chosen this lifestyle, we should all now join the bandwagon, is it?  What happened to C'mon sense upstairs?  So, if they end up in 'HELL' we should jump in as well because, they are Hollywood Stars, is it? And because they are Hollywood Stars all their decisions are correct/perfect??? Only material wealth worshipers of this world can join this kind of trend and when this life ends, where will they be??  Just think of your SALVATION when you indulge in these EVIL practises in the name of fashion!

Yes, based on Hollywood standard their marriage seems to have lasted and we now know why?HuhHuhHuh??  Reason, being that ''Birds of a feather flock together' don't they??? In his interview with NOW Magazine of Sunday, 6 July 2008 where he states,"Our perspective is, you don't avoid what's natural and you are going to be attracted to other people". Off course, why wouldn't he be attracted to other people when he is married to an urgly dwarf like myself - ?5ft nothing as against his Six footer ++ when there are many tall, gorgeous and very attractive young-ons out there.
Tell me, why he shouldn't. Also, he went on to say,"If it came down to it, then one would say to the other: "Look, I need to have sex with somebody. Now I’m not going to do it if you don’t approve of it,"’ he says".  People, use your brains here.  What kind of a marriage is this?  At least, we can all see now why his first marriage to Sheree Smith failed.  If what we are reading is correct, my guess is, their marital acts is nothing short of 'Wife Swopping' and what's so nice about this, I would like to know??? You see, no decent man/woman that loves his/her life partner would want to share them with anyone else, period.  Someone on N/L commented, at least you know when your partner is sleeping with other people and protect yourself.  But, why would I have to do that in a MARRIAGE? Why would I have to seek alternative protection in a solid marriage, I need an answer, here???  You see, such behaviour suggest nothing other than, people are in a CRAP marriage only to pretend that they are married.  Why should they do that when marriage is not compulsory? You don't have to marry anyone or pretend to.   To me, that kind of marriage is not built on strong foundation of love, respect and affection rather on materialism thus, held together with just a tiny and delicate string.  Suddenly, this string would snap one day and, the chicken nyash would be seen and we will all get to read about it, won't we??? Good luck to them and those who practice this act in MARRIAGE!
