How do you know he hasn't? Because YOU'RE not aware? I'll bet on one thing for sure: He's doing WHATEVER and WHOEVER he chooses. And I'd also bet he's happy and content with just that.

Just wondering why Prince is still single, and has numerous failed relationships behind him, when clearly from his music he sounds like the perfect Boyfriend?

Honestly, I think he sounds like the most amazing lover/husband/partner, like if you were loved by him you would be the luckiest perosn alive, so why has he not found the 'one' yet?

This is really a good question, This Lover must be One of a kind, referring to all his lyrics, words, he must surely be a much passionate novel to drown into and being ispired by, all the time.
As his music, whenever You listen to it, You discover a pure new sound, a sigh, a silence not heard before..
Even though as a Pal, a Mate..makes me wander,
His Fame, Fortune make him become unreachable for simple ones, and the ones who get the luck to approach him don't see, meet and love him as he deseves..
The man himself must surely questionning himself more and more, whenever One gets close to him: "Is it for me, or my notoriety, my Fortune? "
Who was the one who "loves me for me"? who loved him for him?

In any case, it is best to be alone than to stay in the wrong relationship...

I agree. The grief for the loss of their son has taken its toll on their relationship.

Cuz he's a control freak. And that shit gets old real fast.

The man appears to be searching for perfection and it doesn't exist. He wants a woman who can bend in the wind but don't break which sounds nice and sweet but when that "wind" includes cheating and being controlling, most women will end up tellling the old windbag "bye bye". I love Prince and all but he really is too self involved to ever have a meaningful relationship with ANYONE. That's just my .

Your right, I dont know that he hasnt found the one yet, but from listening to planet earth I get the distinct impression that he is lonely, or alone, and he wants to find someone to share his life with, but then that comes down to the whole issue of whether or not his songs are autobiographical or not.

Yep that's exactly why I asked that question - it's clear that he has phenomenal powers of empathy, especially getting into women's minds ("Deep down I know what you want..." etc.), but then so do some fiction and film writers and it doesn't mean that all of the stories they tell are based on their own feelings. I think that's the risk with assuming the PE lyrics reflect a current desire to meet 'the one' and settle down, but unlike some other orgers I do find it interesting to look at him as a person as well as loving the music!

A lot of relationships develop too many problems...Lust is necessary, however, that is always the easy part of the work between two people.

Most puppy loves exist between the boy and the girl that live right down the street from one another or go to the same high school. When there is a planet outside of your own little town.

Not every person that you lust physically that God has thrown into your path is someone you should dive into bed with.

And for men that treat women like they are on some type of sexual menu, to quench their thirst...will find someday that a woman a day will only lead to the end of your life with peices of women...you could never collect them all.

And women, Use sex to manipulate a man, and he falls for it, and then they usually dive into his pockets, to compensate for the fact, that they are not the only pretty girl in the world.

Understanding relationships should be discussed within life classes in elementary school through high school, to prepare the children of the world for the fact, that when your hormones are racing, and you fall into puppy love, it doesn't mean that a happy child will be born from the couple.

Many of us marry too young, and those that don't, marry out of convenience, rather than being true to what their heart is looking for.

ladies. now you KNOW you'd NEVER get to pick your own clothing. how tired would THAT get?

ButterscotchPimp said:

Yup. And then later, when the relationship went south, he'd write lyrics about how you spent all day pickin' out something to wear.

I always felt that Mayte was really his soul mate, but he just is so used to controlling things that when they lost the child he withdrew and didn't know how to give or receive comfort, so he turned to the only thing he knew his music.

Christaro said:

Exactly.I also don't think Prince is the "marrying kind".He puts his music first,and no wife can compete with that.

SoulAlive said:

Didn't Appollonia once say that Prince was "married to his music" or something to that effect?

Just as Money & Art don't mix. Prince & Marriage don't mix.

His relationships dont last because he obviously has 'issues'.

He sees women as he wants to see them 'in his mind', when those women dont fullfill that image he ultimately dumps then.

Its his problem, and as long as he doesnt deal with it, it will remain.

Because he still hasn't admitted to himself and accepted what it is that he really wants, which is a man.
