I often notice when I read through the post that alot of past friends and band members are not exactly close with Prince anymore. Who has Prince stayed cool with from the begin until now? It seems that Dr. Fink is the only one that never had any issue with him.
From what I have read Andre was the one who had the most right to upset with Prince. Who else had good reason to not be cool with Prince?
I am not starting this as a flame or 'why Prince is a pr*ck' thread. I am more interested in some real stories.

it has become quite evident that for some reason P is not good with intimate relationships. He's more of a season guy, than a lifetime or reason guy.

dr fink was sacked & replaced with tommy barbarella!..i think mayb he took issue with tht!
i would suggest prince is still cool with sheila

me

AS much money as I have spent on P, he should be cool with me as well.

I think maybe ex-bandmates are bitter, but they jump at the chance to work with him again.

And maybe not. Maybe he treats them well.

not sure about him,

but the only people i'm cool with r

the people who just love me,

who dont toy with me,

dont play with me,

dont underestimate me...

just love me.

Sheila E. is the only one I can think of.

exactly. the people who never did toy with him.

It's quite obvious that he ain't cool with his hair stylist!!!

toy is an interesting word.

i've been treated like one my whole life.

they like to test me so..

why, i'll never know.

It seems that Prince has the ability to put his past behind him for good.
Along with the past he also leaves the people behind that remind him of the past. For those that are left behind, this process can be extremely painful and bitter. Prince tends to be very future oriented and forgets to consider how much he can hurt people's feelings when he discards them after he's done using them.
He also seems to have trust issues; People with trust issues are often not able to create or maintain a close relationship. The only ones that stood the test of time are Sheila E., Fink and of course Larry Graham.

The ice cream man.

i used to do the same thing

in a past life

then God told me i was being an ass

not to say i wont drop people from my life if they really screw up

but if they show me they understand the equation

then we cool

Well who's been permanant in his life since he was a child? It's easy to let people go when you've learned that nobody stays around forever. better to send them on they're way before they leave you first right? Think about it

well unless u got a 7th sense and know what they r up to..

that makes no sense at all.

How the hell would we know this and why do we care?

cuz he's in hell

Sheila E. And, Mr Hayes has been around for a LONG time!!

Prince is still cool with Morris. More than 30 years, give or take the odd arguement.

I feel like Prince can be kinda of a loner and that puts people off
Sometimes I think thats why I identfy with him and his music so well

He's Cool With Me
