Comment: Kim you need to sop fronting. you wer not tht damn strong honey. but you just keep right on having those babbies from him and just do not hold your breath too long because according to the street committee he is having a rendeavous with NIcole of the%*$!(@cat dolls. and here you are again pregnant just like with JLO and he is and will do it again and again until you really put your feet down and show him he cannot continue to do you like that. as soon as he see another JLO look alike he has got to have it because that is one woman tht he was a fool for. he still wants her. and your mom know tht you acted a black fool about the Jlo situation. you made a harse I will kill him dead statement, I sure hope he do not turn up dead and they have that on record what you said. he was showing you that no matter what a court said he was going to do what he wanted to regardless so it did not matter that you put him out of his house , remember it was still his and legally he could come and go as he please so do not get it twisted you full black woman. good luck to you honey in your Puffy saga you are going to need it strong lady.

Comment: She meant to say, once I drop these twins, I'm a 'paid-in-full Black woman!

Name: PgDn
Comment: Wow, Puffy is just not that into her and she is just a pit stop between his other women. This chick is the defintion of a gold-digger. Just into it for the lifestyle and money that puffy gives her. As soon as she is too old to keep popping out those babies he'll be gone for good so she better get all the $$$ she can now while the getting is good!

Comment: What lessons are they teaching their children?

Name: MDhornet
Comment: Mab black folk are harsh. Now y'all know some of y'all have stayed with men who didn't treat you well who had far less than Puffy just because "you loved him".

Name: realuvbaby
Comment: It seems to me that they both seem to be in a safe place, which may smart on both their parts. As far as those of us outside of the relationship, I guess it is what it is, but it's not what it seems. All of us who've really been in love knows that love hurts like hell, but if no one is leaving, the couple just kinda settles in to what it is, and if ain't broke, then don't fix it [with marriage ??] Monogamy seems to be more idealistic than realistic for some and marriages mostly break up because of infidelity and financial issues. As for the children, by the time they are grown and have to make the same choices, the world, I'm sure will be a different place. For baby boomers like myself and my children, there has already been a shift from most of the values we knew as a child. There are many things that were not accepted when we are younger (or for that matter didn't even exist publicly) that seems to be the norm today. So who knows? This above all to thine own self be true . . .

Comment: I ain't mad at Kim at all...She spoke the truth about how she felt at the time and forgave her man like any human being would do...Heifers trying to get at Puff would be foolish!..He loves Kim's azz..Movin' on playa!

Name: kady
Comment: Kim, who do you think you're foolin? You know dayum well you're heart was broken. He flaunted JLO in the media every chance he got and you mean to tell me that it didn't faze you...hmm, you need to stop....everybody has or will experience heart break, it's a part of life but when his crowded mouth azz does it again (b/c in my opinion once a cheat always a cheat) then you need to throw him out on his two front teef.

Name: thechocolate10
Comment: kims alright with me!! I like jlo too and we all know she wants to have all those babies that kim has. Hey a sista she is doing what she has to do for her children. none of us knows what went on behind closed doors!! hand clap to all strong black women!!!

Name: NueNue
Comment: I hate to say this but I don't think any of yall know her or mr. combs so to assume you know whats going on is silly. It saddens me that we never have anything positve to say anymore about anyone. they dont have to share there story but they do and then yall pounce. im glad im not famous cause nuckas is ignorant when they aint hate a celeb

Name: OSUN
Comment: Well.....

Name: PRDC
Comment: Let the right white girl come along...Kim will be history. Puffy with his big teeth is not all of that, regardless of his money. Sistas these days should have their own money and can a nizza like that to keep on keeping on. Money isn't and will never be everything, so don't sale yourself short....Check out his viedo Press Play..the women look nothing like Kim..

Name: OSUN
Comment: MdHornet, you have said a mouthful which is true. It is interesting, there are many women out there, probably on this board, who stick with their cheating spouses and boyfriends because they love them. Contrary to the people's posts on this board, we don't know what she did and what her intentions are. Stop blaming her. She is the smart one, Puffy is the fool.

Name: OSUN
Comment: NueNue you are so speaking the truth also. She seems happy so why do we care.

Name: SpecialK
Comment: Kim probably was hurt behind the whole J-Lo thing but she handled it with class. If this works for her & P Diddy who are we to say either one is a fool. I really don't think they will marry but as long as he's taking care of his children I think Kim is okay with that. He still seems to immature to me to get married.

Name: gingerg
Comment: I've been critical of Kim in the past, but I must say that she has handled the situation well. She is not walking around in denial. She knows who Diddy is and is well aware of the fact that he will cheat on her whenever he pleases. In addition, he owns the homes, etc., so he can come and go as he pleases. They have an "understanding" as the old folks used to say and it works for them. On the other hand, I don't buy all of that mess about being a strong, full black woman. Since when does that mean that you have to put up with someone blatantly disrespecting you? That's why we have such high rates of mental illness and preventable diseases that are often associated with stress. Trying to be the strong black woman and holding all of that pain in will kill your azz.

Name: FiveMore
Comment: Have you all notice that Essence has lost it's touch?I want the old Essence back!

Name: gingerg
Comment: And one more thing, I grew up around uncles who routinely cheated on their wives and had outside children. They also brought their women around their mother and she worked to maintain relationships with the girlfriends and wives. I always found this odd until I found out that my grandmother had her last child outside of her marriage and it was common knowledge in their small Mississippi community. On top of that, the other man was always around. This contributed to my uncle's lack of respect for her and subsequently, women.

Name: Fran
Comment: Wow, Kim brought it in that conversation. I am glad she sounds strong. But Puffy annoys me, I think she should be paid just for dealing with him period.

Name: SpecialK
Comment: FiveMore: I gave up on Essence years ago. Too many damn advertisements and the cover story is always about a page long. Essence needs to bring back more articles and stop letting erbody and dey momma advertise.

Name: CoCoCaramel
Comment: >>>Fivemore I totally agree with you, this new Essence seems very tabloidish it's morped into something similiar to InStyle magazine...Gone are the truly engaging and provocative articles of the past...But then again, we knew this was going to happen once the ownership changed hands...As for the Puffy and Kim article that story would have been better off in one of those supermarket tabloids I don't think Essence was really the forum for that...

Name: FiveMore
Comment: The new owners know exactly what they are doing.They are not interested in uplifting black women.Would the old Essence tolerate these glossy/fake and uninspiring covers?I don't fool with them at all.

Name: Southernbelle
Comment: Every relationship has it's ups and downs. Yeah, Puffy has/is/will play around and if Kim is strong enough she'll stick around long enough for him to settle down. Hey, if it works for her then...But what I find disturbing was her statement regarding JLo playing house to two black kids, WTF!!!That statement didn't seem too favorable towards Puffy. I mean as a black man he would lay up with a woman who wouldn't want a relationship with his "black" kids.

Name: Southernbelle
Comment: I dropped Essence like a bad habit once they changed ownership.

Name: katgrrrl
Comment: SpecialK, AMEN! That annoys the heck outta me too. I'll buy Essence for the cover story and it's a little bit of nothin'. I gotta give it to Kim. I couldn't do it. Have some man be with me until the next wigglin' a&& comes along and then come back to me when that's run its course. God Bless her, cos I really couldn't do it. Must be Love...or something($$$$$$$).

Name: FiveMore
Comment: Gingerg, Deep story!Family life is something else!

Name: BluLuv
Comment: Well said realuvbaby!

Name: Deb70
Comment: At least Puffy knows better than to get married. He knows he's not made for that. I think Kim is his rock, and he still feels the need to sow his oats. Regularly. He's gonna keep hitting every cute booty that walks by, until he feels he's past it. But we know he will never be past it. He'll be 50/60 years old going after the 25-year old. I don't think Kim should marry him; she has to know in her heart that he would not ultimately give her what she wants or needs. And we ain't talkin' 'bout money.

Name: gingerg
Comment: Waiting for him to settle down? When he's in his 50's and nobody else wants to be bothered with him?

Name: MidtownATL
Comment: If Pissy was the average man, Kim would have been long gone. That was disrespect to the umpteenth power. She prolly, deep deep down in her heart, can't stand his azz. Money makes her tolerant.

Name: Southernbelle
Comment: gingerg>Do you think he'll be ready by 50. I was thinking more like 60-70 lol.

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: I agree that a lot of women, probably some on this board have stuck by cheating spouses. But b/c this has gone on so long, I think she is cheating herself out of a relationship with someone who actually respects her enough to let her know the deal. If he, after all this time, isn't sure about her, he probably never will be. There is one thing to be a forgiving person but after somebody keeps treating you like that at some point you got to get a hold of your self respect. I think Charlie Wilson said "you can't keep running in and out of my life." She sounds like one of those women that is waiting on a man to change. Diddy appears happy with the status quo. I'd be willing to bet that Diddy will meet another woman and be married within a year of dating her, it ALWAYS happens that way. The one woman waits and waits and waits and then another woman comes right along and gets the ring. oh and too allude to Jlo being jealous b/c Kim has kids...wow! That's crazy. That type of mentality is what makes a woman think she is special just b/c she got knocked up by some man. Jlo can have as many babies as she wants whether she has them naturally or adopts. I guess the only thing Kim thinks she has on Jlo is her reproductive system.

Name: MediaAgent
Comment: I agree about essence. due to giving subscriptions out as xmas gifts, I'm signed on until 2008. After that, they can keep it. It stinks.

Name: PgDn
Comment: I still think Kim is selling herself/soul short. Love and understandings are wonderful - if Magic's wife can deal I guess anything is possible. It's just the fact that Puffy's affairs make the national news unlike the average man. Hope in addition to the $$$ he does not bring home the HIV/STDs.

Name: DoctorSmooth
Comment: Maybe I'm just old old skool, but how I was raised, it was unthinkable to just have kids with a woman and not get married to her. Obviously that has changed. But to me its obvious Diddy feels she's good enough to sleep with, and to be his baby mama, but not good enought to marry. I dont know why so many of my black brothers feel that way; to me it ridiculous phenomenon in our community. But I also have to fault the women who put up with that, having kid after kid with some dude who wont make any kind of commitment to the relationship. I know a wedding ring doesnt make everything "perfect", but still... it shows a man's respect for, and commitment toward, his woman. I know its old fashioned, but Im teaching my daughter the old fashioned way: If the dude wont put a ring on ur finger, keep your legs closed.

Name: DCGG
Comment: Why is this bytch talking? Nobody gives a fuvk about Kim Porter or her thoughts and opinions and last I heard J.LO ain't stuttin this bytch...

Name: Stephanie
Comment: To me, this really proves what she's really about. Anytime a man dumps you for someone else, then when its over, comes running back, impregnates you 2 times with 3 children and still say, I'm not ready to marry you, HAS got to be the biggest fool and its apparent what her motives are. I know she's probably thinking everyone thinks she's a dumb azz but she'll be paid in full for life but still you can never put a price on your self respect!!!!

Name: lilmocc
Comment: OK, I am soooooo tired of hearing from BOTH of them on this subject. Puffy and JLo were like 10 million dayum years ago and every time I turn around he is talking about the relationship. He know his buck tooth azz was sprung off JLo's Puerto Rican azz and Kim know she was pizzed the fock off about it. Hollering about she acted normal and as if nothing was wrong. She contradicted herself in the same article by saying she couldn't stand to see his face at the time, she threw a TV at his azz, AND she hit his azz up for all that child support. so she need to stop fronting. any woman in that situation would be hurt, angry and pizzed. THAT is normal. Not sitting back thinking - oh - dis negro gonna come back afterwhile. Paleaze! Who really gives a FOCK about Kim or Puffy anyway? Go sit your azzez down somewhere. *rolling eyes* Just focking annoying.

Name: thechocolate10
Comment: ija> i mentioned the baby thing because everybody knows jlo wants to have kids and she's pushing 40 and she doesnt have any. i am sure she's looking at jen gardner like that b took my white boy. But im not even going into any further cause the debate isnt even worth it. its my day to work from home and I aint gettin my panties in a bunch over folks that I dont know.

Name: musbdherbs
Comment: The good thing about Kim is that she's unlike many other black women. At least she is the only fool who will remain w/a man who is unfaithful, impregnates them and others, and still get back w/them. So I can understand why so many women are appalled at that and can clearly see why they believe that "money" is the only reason she's still w/him.

Name: 2ndChance
Comment: Why is Jlo still being discussed? She has had 2 husbands plus 1 fiance since the demise of their relationship.

Name: musbdherbs
Comment: OH...and I can also understand why even after finally speaking (which has been extremely rare..if at all) about her well-publicized romance w/Sean, black women still feel the same about her and believe she's a complete liar.

Name: Lemonhead2
Comment: You know what..I see young girls being played by guys everday (in the worst way too). Money isn't the factor, it boils down to how these women allow themselves to be treated by these men. Stand by your man, down azz chick, ride or die chick all that foolishness has to go..hum didn't Alicia write a song called A Womans Worth...

Name: MrUnapologetic37
Comment: Hmmm... Puffy is a bunch of hype! Truth told, he and kim are married... but they don't want folks to know. This information will eventually leak to the media but for now we are to believe differently. Again, I say Puffy is a bunch of hype. I also have a problem with woman who play themselves and deliberately ignore the warning signs. Where is your self-esteen and self-love? Money will make a monkey/sucker/flunky out of anyone!

Name: Secret
Comment: Whoa!!!! We have the strongest, smartest, black women on the planet up in here, and to top it off they’re all Clairvoyants as well. Please stop fronting; everyone plays the fool including you folks up in here. Love is not all peaches and cream for anybody. It is hard work, ups and downs and a lot of forgiveness for everyone.

Name: sgrantla
Comment: Kim is only doing it for a check. I understand baby... you have to live. Puff doesn't want you. Never will. Kim knows this... she just getting a check. Puff and J Lo was never real either. The public falls for everything, I understand the game Puff. Rock on....

Name: katgrrrl
Comment: Cheatin' is one thing. Like, Bill gettin' the wax on/wax off from Monica, I ain't mad at Hillary for lettin' that slide. But, Kim's havin' his babies and he ain't even thinkin' about gettin' married. Why? I honestly don't know what's goin' on in Sean's head, but I'll guess it's cos he knows she just a fall-back chick. Meet a bunch of other women and when the fun's over, he can fall back in with Kim, cos she ain't goin' nowhere. God only knows what the future holds for these two. I can only wonder if he really has any respect for her.

Name: majones
Comment: Essence is a real joke!! Why would you allow a person with NO family values to grace to cover of your magazine and "reward" his wrong doings?!?! It's like they're giving "Fluffy" a pat on the back for being the trifling nucca he is!! This interview in no way uplifts or helps the black community who is getting murdered by AIDS from unprotected sex. so sad.....

Name: katgrrrl
Comment: Maybe this topic bothers me so much cos I have a daughter and I don't know what I'd do if she did a Kim. What kinda message is she gonna send her twin girls? The B.S. is okay as long as you're gettin' paid?!?! Auuuggggghhh! Doesn't she have her own company? I was watchin' a show about Hip Hop wives & girlfriends n' they mentioned that she has a company with two of her college friends. I know she may not have as much loot as Sean, but I'm sure she has enough to make a comfy livin' with her kids.

Name: MzTee
Comment: It's good to finally hear Kim's side of the story. I can't judge old girl because I'm done some silly things in my past. But, I know for DAMN sure I wouldn't have taken Puffy back after all that praising and showcasing he did of JLO, especially right after she had his child. In his VH1 Behind The MUSIC episode, old boy went on record and said he never felt about anyone the way he did about Jennifer Lopez and he would always LOVE her no matter what. That would have been enough for me. But hey, if it works for the two of them then I say it's all good.

Name: mayday
Comment: I agree, Essence has went South and I refuse to subcribe to them any longer. I must agree with Doctor Smooth regarding Puff and Kim. Nothing against Kim at all and yes all of the women on this board have probably been hurt at one time and still stayed with the man that hurt them but that is no excuse. Kim seems like a decent person and Puffy disrespected her something terrible when he was with JLO. If I recall Puffy wanted to marry J-LO at one time. How is it that he can still lay up with this beautiful black woman and impregnate her over and over but not make her his wife? He has been in a relationship with her for over a decade. I know that someone will post, well what if Kim doesn't want to be married? I don't pretend to know Kim but I would guess if Puffy popped the question she would say yes and if she doesn't want to marry him then why keep having babies with him? Kim can keep the lifestyle without having the children.

Name: Michele
Comment: If that's the arrangement that Kim is happy with, then more power to her. I personally feel that I'm a catch, and therefore, I'm the kind of woman that you wife, and not shack up with. And I have no problem rolling solo until the one comes along who can understand and truly appreciate that. Off the topic, did anyone see Puffy and his three sons in Vibe? He's also raising Kim's son by Al B. Sure, and in the picture, you see Puffy, a cute little brown boy, another little brown boy, and then a cute little mini Al B. Sure. That boy looks EXACTLY like his dad, unibrow and all.

Name: McNasty
Comment: MzTee that statement alone is enough for me to know Kim is going to make sure her bank account looks just like his. I can't imagine her or anyone else for that matter having the capacity to really forgive with him saying he has never loved anyone the way he loved jennylolo and goes back to making babies with Ms. Kim. Kim got pregnant on purpose - only way to cement that payday. I ain't mad at her - that hip hop wives/girlfriends explained it and I'm not one to dispute it. I won't call them golddiggers but for damn sure they are disrepected to the nth degree and paid for every wrong word and deed by these knuckleheads.

Name: Kimmie
Comment: It's crazy how some men view marriage as a more serious commitment than having babies with a woman. That's some azz backwards thinking.

Name: SweetieDarlin
Comment: MusBe> You're being cheeky again, stop that sarcasm NOW LOL! Hey Kim from what I have seen is grace under pressure, she loves her man but I do notice that she is truly trying to branch out and do her own thing as far as the party planning business with her girls etc. I can't call it and I am not about to, if she's happy and the children are well taken care of COOL! I can not equate her situations with some un-wed woman down the street struggling to get child support, it may seem like the same situation but it really isn't and anyway if either one of them poor or rich want to stay with their man under those circumstances more power to them, these woman are not my role models nor would they be my children's role model, if a child of mine asked me about that particular situation, simply I would let them know about making the BESt choice for their situation, essentially as long as I'm not supporting these kid, whatever makes you happy. Interesting enough WHEN (or perhaps IF) Diddy marries her what will we talk about then, probably that he doesn't love her and speculating on how long the marriage would last...

Comment: >Five More . . . I agree with you, I would like the old Essence back too, but they sold out to advertisers. That era is over and has been for a long time. Essence is just another magazine now with some Black stories and culture.

Name: MsVanese
Comment: Okay, does Kim get anything from this man besides pregnant? Is she saving anything for HER future? If she is strong, as she says, then she better start thinking that the gravy ain't gonna flow forever.

Name: MzTee
Comment: McNasty...you got a point there. I try not to be jaded, but what Puffy did to Kim takes a lot of forgiveness along the likes of the biblical Job. And, I know I ain't nowhere near there (LOL). As I wrote before, it ain't my cup of tea but if she likes it then I love it. I agree with everyone else about Essence. Remember when they had regular women on their covers. NOW they always have celebrities on their covers. I also hate the new format. Oh well, after the subscription ends in 2008 the only time I'll probably pick up an Essence is at the barber shop.

Comment: Can someone help me to understand why does a Woman stay with a man who cheats on her? I don't get that... And please don't give me the "but I love him" rationale because that's played out.

Comment: >Jazz, I understand the part about child support, but surely the woman gets something for herself. I mean we all (women) learned from our mothers at an early age (I did anyway) to make sure there is something to fall back on.

Comment: Y'all know I wrote about this in September so go back and read what I said. http://www.eurweb.com/story/eur28543.cfm After seeing this, I stand by what I said. Why is she with him? Because she has given him all the power in the relationship. She let him determine the rules. She didn't put her foot down at baby #1 and say "marry me or we're done" and now, she is in this position. She is afraid of that ultimatum because she knows he'll walk. Very sad. Very, very sad.

Name: clotel
Comment: Not only did Puffy let us know on a daily about his undying love for JLo, he was ready to marry her ASAP. Then again, JLo was smart enuf to not have children with him OUTSIDE of marriage. I just wish more women would recognize their power when it comes to casually having children. Everyone keeps saying that Kim is going to get paid, but how important is that when love and a supportive caring partner are not apart of the equation. Hmm....I wonder when Fluffy is going to start shouting from the mountain top about his love for Kim. Enuf said.......

Name: DoctorSmooth
Comment: Kimmie...I dont think that men think marriage is a more serious commitment than having children. As a matter of fact thats part of the whole issue. Marriage is a conscious commitment. "Having children" is often accidental and unplanned, so it doesnt necessarily require a commitment for it to take place (although you would hope the man would step up and do the right thing for his kid after his child is born). The point is though, when a woman keeps having babies with a man who is unwilling to commit to her, more often than not, things end up badly, both for her and the kids.

Comment: Mr.Unapologetic37> Everyone always makes noise that cheating is the ultimate deal breaker but when it comes down to it regardless of what people say, many people men and women do not walk away from a cheating spouse, be it being with the person you know versus the unknown, finances or whatever it happens more than people will say, then those who come forward and are honest are called stupid and lacking self esteem. Now interestly enough, no one dares to call Camille Cosby or Jackie Jackson or Coretta Scott King stupid and lacking self esteem yet their spouses cheated, what IS the different really? I know of course for this article Kim is with a cheating man and they are not married but what if they do marry, again then people will raise the same issues except now she will have married the baby-daddy but everything else people are saying now if their eyes will still apply. Again, I feel whatever works for you. As far as HIV/AIDS is concerned, the problem is safe sex, not multiple partners, it only takes one person to infect you, people need to get realistic and protect themselves, even marriage or one partner guarantees that you won't get an STD, it depends on honesty.

Name: DoctorSmooth
Comment: I'm surprised Diddy's gotten a pass on the whole racial part of this. He has kids by 2 separate black women and never showed any inclination to marry either one. He makes it clear this Puerto Rican J-Lo is the love of his life, and u get the feeling he would have married her in a hearbeat. Also, the "love interest" in most of his videos are almost NEVER black women, but white-ish/Hispanic looking women. Why does Puffy get a free pass on this while other black male celebrities would not? Somebody help me understand.

Name: McNasty
Comment: MrUnapologetic any woman in that situation would give you a myriad of reasons why she stays but the fact is once her self confidence has been eroded enough and her self esteem low enough she would stay with a rabid dog - she thinks she deserves it. Then there's that 'but I love him' jazz and the kicker is 'cause the dyck was good' for all the non thinking only fukkin' girls. Truth be told, not all women go through situations like this cause some of us are enough in our own right to make it with or without a man. For me what he has that I need, I can buy it and put a battery in it - and it don't talk back!

Name: SweetieDarlin
Comment: In the Chicago Sun Times Newspaper there was an article about the spread of STD specifically HIV, and they found out that multiple partners is not as huge a risk factor as initially thought, the problem is that people are not using condoms to protect themselves period. Now this is not condoning multiple partners at all simply it confirms what I have always thought, people do not think this will happen to them so they don't ask questions, don't question lifestyles and most importantly they do not protect themselves and unfortunatle contrary to popular belief marriage does not stop STDs, people will cheat and not only cheat but cheat without bothering to protect themselves and their spouse who unknowingly think that man/woman is true.

That is however an interesting question and that is my only question not about the Diddy/Kim relationship but with him, what IS the big ol'deal about Jennifer versus Misa and Kim?

Name: Peekiebear
Comment: "Good" men and women do exist- they're everywhere, in fact (and I'm one of them and I am truly beautiful, too). You can't "find" us because you keep running after the "other" types- the ones you complain about because that's all you think you deserve. You attract what you expect. Raise your low self-esteem and refuse to put up with "trifling" behavior. And yes, you can be a "good" man or woman and still attract the sh*t if you don't think you deserve better. Demand more and don't "settle." And don't ask for what you don't have yourself. Soon, I found "good" men everywhere I went. I knew EXACTLY what I was looking for in a man and I refused to settle- and I eventually found the man of my dreams. But- we took the time to establish trust and respect in our relationship BEFORE we had sex. And we really LIKED each other, besides. We took the time to build a deep and abiding love and it was worth all the time I spent on the sidelines. Integrity, faithfulness and a strong belief in God was uppermost in our minds. And, to me, he is the sexiest and most loving man on the planet. He is truly a "good" man, but he was lonely before me because he didn't drive a fancy car or treat women badly. Never mind that he earns a very high income- and no, I wasn't looking for that. And I truly love this man, but I had to learn to love myself, first. And that's the key- love yourself, and good things will follow. I did it, and you can, too.

Comment: Thanks, McNasty... I will except your explanation as a open door to understanding. What I find interesting as men do go through that. We're less tolerable of a woman cheating on us and still choosing to stay with him. Yeah, I know there are some brothers who've played themselves, but the situation just seems more rampant among our female counterparts. As for your comment, SweetieDarlin, I don't like what I am hearing from you. As true as it might be, I am CONVINCED that the underlined issue is the constant swapping of multiple partners coupled with our complacentcy or indifference to wearing protection. It's in vogue to be Ho and it's literally killing us!

Comment: How strong is she that she gets impregnated again by a man who cheated on her so openly that Diddy and JLO were doing documentaries together. Albeit MTV but come on man. And really if you look at it Puff's got kids by two paternal support entrepreneurs and flossing Univision. Truth be told the girl from the Dolls is unbelievable.

Comment: Mrunapologetic< That's b/c people don't make a man feel like he's a nobody if he doesn't have a mate. Even in 2006, if you show up to various functions without a date as a woman people want to know where 'he' is.

Comment: I dont understand why Puffy wont just get married to Kim he is nearly 40 and has four kids. I agree with whoever said he would probably marry JLO if he had the chance in the past and JLO would have broke his heart.

Comment: I think some women stay in abusive relationships, and this is just my opinion, because (1) they have never seen a real relationship(no loving examples) (2) they have seen relationships that have the woman being submissive & think it is the norm (3) have been told their whole life that it is the woman's duty, because of religion, to keep her man happy in any way. I know there are more reasons other than these. My sister-in-law knew her husband was cheating & said "I am not going to divorce him because he takes care of me." Which is actually kind of sad since she makes way more money than he does.

Comment: Here's another one, MsVanese (4) Societal pressure. I lot of women buy into the myth that their value and status is determined by their marital status. I know several women who are married to virtually worthless men and put up with all kinds of ill treatment so that people will think they have something special.

Name: OSUN
Comment: Doctorsmooth being a semi gossip whore I can tell you from what I have read and watched is that Puffy never wanted to marry JLO. He doesn't want to marry anyone. JLO broke up with Puffy because he was cheating on her as well as ruining her emerging "lily" white status with his court cases, club shootings and the like. JLO admits to Puffy's infidelity.

Comment: Wow, whatever the truth is in Nicole's situation, it is really painful that Black men pursue trashy non-Black women. It's one thing if it's just pure love and you date interracially, but it seems that once Black men get money and status, they tend to turn to these sleezy women (ala JLo) outside of their race. And not to mention the trashy ones that Kobe Bryant and Caublasian Tiger Woods are married to. Sigh...Black women, stay strong...And teach these men how to treat you. Or else you'll be treated like Kim has...remember, all money is not good money. Your self worth is so valuable.

Comment: You know I don't know who some of you have been talking/listening to but I never felt pressure to have a man on my arm going anywhere at anytime. I got a big kick out of putting on my glad rags and going out by my damnedself! I listened to the uplifting messages from my parents and certainly since death did them part their's was the only message I listened to. I just don't get that societal pressure - you are the person that has the power and authority to make the decisions that govern your life. Damn what society and anyone else thinks!

Name: MsVanese
Comment: McNasty, that is just it. You said you had parents who uplifted you. There a lot of women who don't. There are women who have parents who tell them "Gurl a man will be a man, deal with it". Who know there daughter is being abused & tell her "you shouldn't have or should have..."

Comment: MrUnapologetic that's because unbeknownst to a lot of men - y'all have the unmitigated gall to still hold old values over a woman's head. It's okay for a man to cheat and a woman to stay but let a woman cheat, he may or may not let her stay but you know in his heart he wants her to go cause she got with another man. Men have figured out that when some women cheat it's emotional and they can't compete with that. Men on the other hand cheat and it means nothing or so they say. We just have to start coming to the table more real with each other. If you want to just kick it with someone then say that and if you're expecting some kind of a relationship, keep your nekkid business to yourself and make sure everything that you do together goes into getting to know each other on several different levels. Relationships aren't complicated - it's people overthinking the process that causes the confusion.

Comment: Mr. Unapologetic37, the reason I am making these observations is because I want people to understand that one need to be realistic about what you are doing period. I have had this discussion before and I have heard the blanket statement that specifically black women are getting HIV because they have become more promiscuous, but there are still people who have only had one partner and become HIV positive, simply everyone should be aware period, also as long as we think its only happening to 'Hoes' some people go so far as to think it's their just desserts, that also gets people thinking that if they are in a committed relationships there is no possilibity of getting a STD. Again I am absolutely not advocating multiple partners and certainly IF people are really committed and not just giving lip service to the idea because it sounds good that is the idea situation.

Comment: MsVanese I should realize that not everyone had/has what I had. I am jaded in that, as evidenced in my post, I think that's the way it is across the board. My bad.

Comment: . . . and I certainly should remember the part that Lynn Whitfield played in Madea's Family Reunion when she turned her daughter over to her rich husband.

Comment: Clotel! I wanted to jump outta my seat when I read what ya said! I too am a product of a beautiful, wonderful, hard-working single mother and I promised myself that I would NOT have a child until I was married. That's why I'm the last of all my friends to have a baby. Now, I know marriage is no guarantee and God only knows what the future holds. But things are pretty solid as they have been for the past 8 years we've been together and we have a blessing in the form of a 2 y.o. girl and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Comment: Since when did Diddy and J-Lo become an "AFFAIR"? Puffy and J-Lo were a COUPLE. They were all out there, very public. I think this is another example of revisionist history, ala political parties. Sure... NOW she and Puff are back together. But to say that when Puff was with J-Lo, it was an affair is to rewrite history.

Name: joyandpain
Comment: Exmun>Diddy and JLo "became" a couple, but when Kim first heard about it, he and Kim were living together and she "heard" about him cheating on her. No rewriting about that history.

Name: reflection
Comment: As women we need to place a higher value on ourselves. And follow God in making decisions on relationships and such. I think that Diddy and Kim may already be secretly be married,though. It's hard for me to believe that she would be this ecstatic about just a long-term girlfriend/baby momma, regardless of how much money Diddy has. But stranger things have happened.Peace

Comment: Puff hit Nicole from PCD?

Name: AllDay3
Comment: Kim get real! I can't believe she would say, "And besides, does she look like the type that would want to play house and family with two little black kids?" Hello! Their father is black.Why is she throwing that comment in. Kim is mad cause Diddy gave J.Lo she didn't get. His heart. That man still loves J.Lo. Kim can say whatever the hell she wants. I did not know he started seeing J.Lo while he & Kim were allegedly together. Kim got played and she's trying to front like it was whatever. EVERYBODY knows he is a dogg and is screwing everything he sees. Kim is lying saying she wasn't hurt when he hooked up with J.Lo just like she lied about how he beat her up on that yacht that night in St. Tropez. And I think he is screwing Nicole from Pussycat Dolls AND that chick from Danity Kane named, D. Woods among a list of others. Both Kim & Diddy are ignorant.
