There is nothing that can be done about what has already happened.

Very true. And I don't wish them any ill will. I hope they have healthy babies and live happily ever after. But I MUST speak up when people start to crack on Mayte like SHE is the villain here. She isn't. She was young, got her nose wide open, her heart broken wide open and is hopefully wiser for the experience. She is not a bad person. Just maybe bad for Prince. (I must admit I didn't like Prince dress, music, persona during the Mayte years). If Mani has a hand with the new Prince (which somehow I doubt since he has always been a one man show) then goody for us... because I really do like the "new and improved" Prince. Look at my handle.

But let me be clear... I am not jealous of Mani about Prince... I don't want him, I personally love TALL men 6' is the MINIMUM,
for me I am happily married and as a wife of a good man, it bothers me how women will try to pull a man and break up a marriage and people seem to think it is ok ("as long as they are happy"). Well I am not down with that.
And before you starting yelling "how do you know?", I don't know but I do know this, Mani started working for Prince before he divorced Mayte, and it is also a documented fact that Mani was a "little obsessed about Prince, that is all she talked about" while in college.
I don't know.... sounds suspect to me.

I just hope y'all who defend this adultery to the end, don't find yourself on the receiving side. My ex boyfriend was a big Prince fan, tried to dress like him, and romance like him. That shyt wasn't cool. That is why I say my husband is a good man, because as a born again Christian he has been walking the walk that Prince is now talking for the last 8 years.

prodigalfan said:

being that your husband is a born again Christian, hopefully some of his beliefs will eventually rub off on you. Jesus said, "Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone." AND Alll gave sinned and fall short of the glory of God."

Again, noone said that you have to praise and worship Mani (and the same goes for Mayte fans) but if you forgive and forget, it's over. Noone is supporting or defending adultery, some of us have been on the receiving end.
But we've all broken one of the the ten commandments, a sin is a sin , noone no worse than the other....so in saying that, you must be mad at a whole lotta peeps.....

well i seem to have a problem with people trying to tell other people what they should and shouldn't say on certain threads. If you have a problem with what the majority of the orgers on a particular thread are saying, then all you have to do is simply click the back button and go in another thread.... it's that simple

Prince has been a man-whore for most if not all of his professional years.

Jesus said, "Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone"

It's been a while since I've said anything in the "Mani" threads, so I'll throw my in now:

I think that Mani has "unfairly" benefited from Prince's new commitment to monogamy. Prince has NEVER been monogamous before now. He basically made women compete against each other for his love and attention.

the love of one woman fulfills the soul better than the pussies of several.

Mr. J did indeed say that, but if we had to live by that we might as well stop communicating; the org had to close down for sure..lol

Just by quoting this particular moral lecture you are actually "throwing stones" yourself

So let's just give the bible lectures a rest and throw a few more stones, shall we?

CokeJohnson said:

maybe if you took the time to read the Bible "lectures", you would not refer to Jesus as Mr. J and you would know that these lectures are actually called Scriptures.....If you actually read and studied the Scriptures, you would understand what, "let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone" actually meant....

Btw, I hope that I haven't offended anyone else by using quotes from the Bible. I was just trying to make some points that have helped me.....

preciosa863 said:

Let me get this straight, you "got Mani's back" on hooking up with a married man, and then you are going to come around here and preach Christianity??? Practice what you preach. Let your actions be the guide to help others who are lost, not 'I have your back girlfriend" when your friend is wrong.

Holier than thou? Yeah, I guess it does make me the better person because I don't comment on things I have no clue about. I happen to think that bashing Mani isn't cool so I just stated so.

You are correct: People are free to post whatever they like on these boards but it also leaves them open to have a thread like this one pop up.

prodigalfan said:

Well correct me if I am wrong, I am serious. I have read that Prince said in interview about the song, Call My Name that he wrote it the first time he heard "his beloved" call the name Prince. I have also read that Prince changed his name while still married to Mayte. Did he change his name back in 1998? Did he get divorced in 2000?

TheOrgerFormerlyKnownAs said:

lol, u just left yourself wide open and contradicted yourself. U don't comment on "things you don't know about" yet you just put your two cents on this forum about "something u don't know about". Let's get real here people. Its natural to speculate and talk about things and people and i can't say that there is a person on this site who can say that they are "better" than other people because "they don't comment on things they don't know about". Please tell this shit to someone who gives a fuck cuz prince sure as hell doesn't.

So what if you don't hate on Mani, do u want a fuckin' medal for that? R u tryin' to get some free concert tickets because u do or don't hate on mani? well hate to break it to ya' but that ain't gonna happen.....

and umm yes posting comments that mani hating is bad for you health, folks that is still considered commenting on something you don't know about. How do we know if their marriage is good or bad, or how they hooked up was morally good or bad? The answer is we don't, but just because one person thinks how they got together is wrong makes them a bad person and you telling them that its wrong for them to hate on one or the other spouse makes you a better person.

I don't give two pumps and a stroke about any damn Prince concert tickets, BTW. It seems that is more suited to your Princebonics-using ass.

This post is straight up Def Comedy Jam material. Me posting on a thread about folks not knowing what they are talking about is equivalent to me posting about something I don't know about. Huh? I don't give two pumps and a stroke about any damn Prince concert tickets, BTW. It seems that is more suited to your Princebonics-using ass.

prodigalfan said:

Just a thought, but since Mani was probably still his assistant at that time maybe, just MAYBE she had to say the dude's name to tell him something. Just b/c she's his beloved NOW doesn't mean she was THEN. MAYBE hearing her say it stayed w/ him for whatever reason & he thought about it more once they got together. OR JUST MAYBE he said that in the interview b/c it sounds good & he's really full of shit - WHO KNOWS??

I love this! I am glad to know I am not the only one who thinks Halle Berry has some issues going on.

prodigalfan said:

Mani wasn't the person who committed adultery, if indeed adultery was committed. There are too many rumours floating around, we will never KNOW THE REAL truth. All i know it that Prince is happy now with one woman , Mani(that's what I meant when I said I got your back Mani). I guess the best thing for me to do, rather, not do, is to comment on these types of threads. Even my replies are misconstrued and misinterpreted. .....
