I do not want to come across as bashing Prince, and I hope it doesn't come across as such. The question is really not about him, but more about us as women. During this performance with Nona, isn't that Mayte holding up a sign on the stage? I was young once, but I don't see how they could share a stage together knowing he was involved with us both. I mean I get how people may know that a guy has more than one thing going on; but to actually like share space with that person is weird to me. Wouldn't be able to do it. Any thoughts?

they have shared the stage numerous with Prince. Maybe at some poing there might not have been anything betwen him and Mayte but, Nona should have had a hint....she was on drugs . Maybe mayte was just that, a dancer...I dont know just saying...but nona should have known something was right...

Why do people on the org expect a high calibre artist such as Prince to adhere to the same moral standards as the average Joe? He was one of the greatest pop artists of the 20th and 21st century, he had tons of money, looked good, was always well groomed and handsome and charming, tons of talent and had a way with the ladies....why do you expect him to settle down with just one woman if that´s not really his thing?

I bet he could´ve had a much more relaxed life if he wasn´t confronted with the expectations of society and some of his less understanding women.

By the way, before anybody here calls me sexist....I think the same standards apply to artistic women as well.

You can´t judge such special people by your standards. Look at Picasso and all those fucking rockstars...at least Prince didn´t physically abuse his ladies and did not humiliate them, except for a few rare cases.

He was Prince, the one and only. His royal badness. He played guitar.

What did you expect?

And yes, he was not only dating Mayte and Nona at the same time, but Carmen Electra, too.

And why not?

I know many women who share the same guy, do nice things together (like cooking, going to the movies, parties, having interesting conversations ) and who also have threesomes together.

And a good friend of mine has quite an interesting lovelife, too.

And why separate "just physical" sex from sex as a spiritual experience?

Also, don´t be so hard on yourself....I´m sure there´s someone out there who finds you hot.

I can understand the gugh caliber average Joe statement, that's why my question really wasn't about Prince, but about the women who shared him. And really I can understand the sharing (to a degree, if you can accept that); I can't wrap my head around seeing the other person and working with them and holding my jealousy in tack. What someone said makes sense..maybe he told each one you're true love, that's just sex...but knowing how he placed sex on a spiritual plane, then sex also became something special. I could not have done it, share him, probably (more than likely), but I would have to have drawn the line at sharing space with/performing with them. And yes, I understand that I do not even have the physical hotness to draw a second look, but, I do/would have had the spiritual and emotional hotness.

Ive always liked Nona...have nothing bad to say about her. Since Prince's death she has taken the high road and said nothing and that's about as good as it gets. Prince was no angel as we all know so Imma leave that here

What is she up to these days? I haven´t heard about her in ages, except for a brief photo I saw during the lawsuit against Pharrell and Robin Thicke.

I heard some nasty rumors about her drug use and its effects but don´t know if there was any truth to those rumors.

I have always liked her and the music she did with Prince. Their version of 1000 Hugs and Kisses is such a great, airy, breezy feelgood song, and I think she looked hot despite her heavy drug use.

I know she had drug issues, but who hasnt went through something in life. She was a great actress and I havent heard anything also since the lawsuit. But out of all of Prince's women I respect her for moving on with her life and learning from those experiences. She gets love from me

Me too, always liked her. And that's Marvin's baby girl, how could I not wish her & her fam well.

agreed 100%. Nothing but respect for the lady

I think Prince told them both that there was nothing going on with him and the other one. They did not want to believe that he was messing with other women, even though their minds told them otherwise, so they were in denial until finally it came to a head.

Oh, I never expecxted him to adhere to any moral standards. How on earth could he when he had all that going for him and undoubtedly gorgeous women constantly wanting a piece of him. What man could resist that?

She did an interview for tvone and she sounded distraught 😞

Really I need to see that

The rumors I heard were really, really disturbing and involved stuff like crackhouses and doing really desperate stuff, and that made me quite sad because she seemed to be such a talented person (and looked hot, too).

Do you know if there´s any truth to those rumors?

I hope she gets herself together with all the money that´s rolling in now.

Would love to see her happy and healthy again.

I thought that Nona's drug issues were way in the past, like not long after she split from Prince. I could be wrong though, because I never kept up with her that closely.

Good points mentioned it a few times myself. Prince was not the average guy and he knew it. These women were aware of what he was doing. Robyn Power said he had her go out and pick up women for him. What does that tell you.

But he was very well capable of settling down with one woman. He settled down with Manuela. He doesn't have to be the "average Joe" to settle. And him getting married proved he's capable of settling down--even if it didn't last a long time.

--- His settling down did not work out so well.

luvgirl said:

Maybe they didn't know that he was with the other and maybe they did and one refused to back down and was determined to be 'the one.' If it were me and I did know, yes it would bother me very much. It would have been hard to do that. They may not have known for a fact he was intimately involved with the other; they may have just suspected it. He probably told each one they were the one and they prob believed it.

I am a man and I am protesting the gender segregation this thread calls for.

Thou shalt not discriminate on the basis of chromosomes.

I've said my piece now. You may continue.

luvgirl said:

The moral of the story is.... When you are not in a committed relationship you are not getting that fulfillment your soul ultimately yearns for. Therefore happiness will remain unattainable through the searching even though it might be fun. Rock star or average Joe, you still want that fulfillment, and so you keep searching, and the fun eventually becomes the balm for that fulfillment. Therefore, through continuously searching you are only able to attain and sustain the fun, but not true and abiding love. [Edited 10/8/16 19:10pm]

That may be true for a certain amount of time, maybe a couple of years, maybe five, and in some cases maybe even a lifetime together but in many cases, that yearning and longing for true love wears off after a certain time, which is probably human nature and has biological reasons.

It´s our conditioning, morals, religion, culture or whatever we want to call it that makes us believe in it and yearn for it in the first place.

I wonder how people will deal with this topic in the future, and how relationships are going to be then.
