Do they travel together alone to private resorts ??
Spend nights together watching a movie, hangout with mutual friends (of both of them)??
I don't understand
Nope. Were supposed to go to Benin together. She had an exam and invited him to go with her. He was not free.

I won’t even be married if I’m as rich as Bill Gates. It’s a fucking abnormality for someone that rich to be tied to one lousy lady forever. What’s the point of having all the money if he can’t flex any lady that comes his way because of marital commitment?

I congratulate him on his freedom. Now, he can flex his money as much as he wants. grin grin tongue

Small pikin sense.

You get sense cos you got the message.

You don't get the point, From the write up, you can deduce that ''Bill'' draws inspiration from that lady, though he loves his wife but the ideas, motivation and feeling of sharing your dreams with someone of ''like-minded'' can never be traded for anything.

Do they indulge in adultery? The write up didn't state that, so it's wrong to assume they did.

The wife is aware of this friendship, she is ok with it, The said lady was part of his greatness.

I hate it when people throw away years of friendship because they want to please a very insecure fellow.

For me the code is simple; respect and honor your wife and the holy matrimony but don't trade your friends for anything.

Let's be sincere would you let your wife go on a trip every year with a particular ex in the name drawing inspiration? I bet no African man would do that, is easy to dish out opinion/advice when we are at the other side of the table.

Look at all the men calling him a bad boy, if it was the other way round. Oh, she is cheating, women can not be trusted, etc.
Na nairaland na, this is where you find the most misogynistic and biased male species on the surface of the earth .

Meanwhile, see them above always quick to justify any shit from men. Imagine if the woman was the one jetting around with her ex here. It would have been "women! They can never be trusted". Sense of objectivity has been eroded by sexism.

Why would she move around with her ex? Is the man living under her roof and protection? Get sense, women are our subjects, we decide your destiny.

Nothing hidden here he made it public and it was a respectful relationship cum friendship.

No wonder he is successful. Hmmm! I understand this very well. When you have a gf or a spouse below your IQ, it is a real problem. Esp when the person is a genius or a goal getter, while the spouse is just normal. Frustration always occurs.

I can understand what bill did

I have a friend who did this too. He is married but have a female colleague he normally hangs out with. They both share the same disposition, see things from the same angle especially on business issues. If he has any business idea, he runs it through her. She is like his sounding board and business adviser but they are not intimate. They have been on this since 2018.

I don't judge him. It is what he feels works for him.

Ta! They must cfvck.

You jet around the world with an ex girlfriend and even sometimes went to isolated and secluded places all the time while you're still married to your wife and still have audacity to shamelessly tag your wife an unsecured fellow ! Some of you are simply amazing at justifying rubbish!

Hahahahahaha!

You go fear na!

It is the last line for me:

'Some of you are amazing at justifying rubbish'!

Go back and read again but this time in slow motion.

There was no cheating! What language did you understand??

If you understand what infidelity really is, you would not say there was no cheating.

say the truth are you ok with your wife spending weekends with another man alone. Just because they were friends or ex lovers before she met you?

Reasoning of a super zombies. Always upside down and that's why you believe that a buhari whose credentials cannot be verified will be able to bring you CHANGE and later take it to NEXT LEVEL, only for you to end up in a hopeless situation now with 30k as your reward. grin grin grin

The article didn't say if they cheated or not thus my first question. I also don't subscribe to the idea of people cutting off friends after marriage. But my comment is based on the fact this is a privilege only the men get to enjoy. If it were the woman who was jetting around with her ex, people won't be here talking about inspiration and stuff. She would have been labeled a cheat outrightly. In fact, a typical Nigerian man wouldn't even want his lady to have any male friend let alone spend quality time with an ex. We're only making these exceptions and remembering inspiration cause the spotlight is on the man.
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.

If they inspire themselves so much, why didn't they marry and live on the babe's salary till Bill blew?

After all, the drive and passion was there and marriage to Melinda did not 'kill' it.

I am very interested in Melinda's background to understand why she would agree to such nonsense. Low self-esteem? Poor? Obession?

And why divorce now? Is she tired of 27yrs of being the 3rd wheel? Did she think his desire for Amy would wane after they have kids and settle into the routine of married life? Did she think she could cope? Did she erroneously think 51 weeks with Bill trumps one week with his ex?

What was their marriage like outside the press?
