Go make money no dey yarn dust. No single woman or man is worth the headache. If you want you have 10 if you can afford it.

Yes you can afford even a community of ladies and have one per secs but when you get older , you will understand. Uncertainty and loneliness will settle in and it will become real.
Trump and co can testify about that

There will always be a woman
who is your spiritual soulmate.

You may end up marrying different
people, but the connection will
remain forever.

See Prince Charles & his current wife Camilla
after death of Diana.

Camilla was his main girlfriend from
the getgo, but Royal politics & tradition
declared she wasn't fit for him. Though
he married Diana, Camilla was always
in his life.


I know someone on that type of scenario
The connection was deep, but due to family pressure and opposition they didn't marry

She is still behind the scenes
Even more closer to the guy than his wife

This always happens

Someone like me anyways, I don't make a rule I cannot keep. That being said, I don't subscribe to hanging around my exes after breaking up. Not that I am enemies with them, it's a matter of basic principle and common sense.

Now talking about men being allowed the privilege, this is a very rare case. The wife approved it for another reason not probably disclosed herein. Finally, a man knows how to relate with a woman without mixing emotions. As in keep her where she belongs. Few women's can pull it off, men are more adept to it.

No be everything una go dey compare men and women. I don't condone infidelity ooo, but even in infidelity men are more gracious than women. Go figure!!

There's nothing like more gracious in infidelity, sir. Thanks for the response.

Hanty, sometimes tis just good to read everything and then ask questions after.

Bill told his wife about the arrangement before they got married. It was even a deal breaker for him and the wife accepted.


I'm not a lady. I read everything. You're the one who simply did not understand my submission.

Melinda was seeing other men too when they were dating.
I believe it was more of a business marriage than for love. That's why they lasted so long and achieved a lot together.

I see. Makes more sense now.

I don't get, even in America how many people allow their spouses meet with exes, what works for gates doesn't mean will work for u, infact I can boldly say she's a cause for the man crashed marriage, see people feelings are the same all over, it's nothing about been a Nigerian or not, people practise open relationships here too.. the question can u allow your spouse be that close with her ex?..feelings don't die completely boss, can be triggered any fucking time.

I agree with you sir. I specifically said Nigeria cause of the gender dichotomy over there and also to bring the point home to the person I quoted.

Hmmmmmmmmm..

These guys dont marry who they love... either arrangee to please their parents or benefits..

Or just to keep a kind of social class.. which backfires in years to come.. Amazon ...Prince Charles... Many more of them.....

I will simply marry her as a second wife. Can she marry her ex as a second husband? The earlier you guys accepted the reality that male and female infidelity /chastity aren't even comparable the less confused the coming generations will be. I don't blame you guys it's the bed Western men prepared so they should be ready to lie on it.

oh men can cheat but women can't.

exactly. If I sleep with 20 women and they all get pregnant, the situation is clear, I'm the father of the 20 or more children they will give birth to and each woman is the mother of the child she gave birth to. No confusion no chaos. If my wife sleeps with 20 men and gets pregnant who is the father of the child she will give birth to?

you have not work with tech guys!
they are the most nerdistic guys when it comes to women and relationships.talk less of bill gates at prime 38 years who is a billionaire,software designer and architect,programme developer.these guys will only be in the midst of fellow nerds.that is why you have ann.
melinda was a junior manager at Microsoft in the first year they met.that is the only way bill gates could ever get close to a non nerd female and she had offers (and bill was not top of her list)
what changed was bill gates was encounter to date melinda because of her mental strength as a woman!
if you are looking for a mom,wife ,friend and a woman the choice was melinda not ann.

is there a possibility that a woman may have hit on bill gates, definitely!but not bill gates chasing girls.
he is a complete nerd
29 years old

Lol. They would condemn polygamy in the public and turn 180° to practise it secretly. To many of them, polygamy is evil but they still engage in it one way or another.
To all pro monogamy who demonise polygamy but still indulge in it secretly, thunder fire your yansh.

Those whites ehn, they are as hypocrites as Nigerians. Say one thing in public, do another privately.

And the wife was so happy with it?
If another Nigerian wife should share such relationship with her pastor for instance then you will find nairaland.com filled with pastor bashers and lady bashers

Really you are joking right, 99% of Nigeria married women have that kind of relationship with their pastor, they just don't set time for private meeting.

Hope you noticed the relationship between them was a professional one, and he doesn't have to disrespect his wife or spend the family limited resources in pleasing her.

You seems to think just because they are divorcing, they have marital issue, if they feel differently why can't they end it rather than wait till one of them stabs the other or sleep with a foreigner with video all over the place.

By the way he was already rich before they got married, and if he didn't cheat for 27 years what makes you think he cheated now, don't fabricate story just answer the question, there's nothing on twitter or anywhere to support your claim.
