Can't hold on to her man??!! What century are we in? LOL A man that thinks so little of his vows as to commit adultery will do so regardless of how wonderful the woman is or treats him. I had a friend go on an anniversary trip with her husband to Mexico. They had a fantastic, romantic time, lots of sex too and at the end of it he told her he wanted a divorce cause he was in love with someone else. She couldn't figure out what 'she had done' to cause it. It came out of the blue. It about destroyed her trying to figure out what she had done wrong. It's the man's mindset and has nothing to do with the woman. <100>

If any 'man' is a dog, he's going to act like a dog. By the same token, if any woman is the opposite of dog, she is going to act likewise. In a great many cases it has nothing to do with the wronged spouse. They are innocent victims who never stood a chance from the beginning. We could probably fill up a page of this thread, single-spaced, of celebs and people we personally know who were, are and are always going to be unfit for a lifetime commitment to a spouse.

No one should have to hold on to another person. The other person should "stay" by him/herself with no holding...

I think it depends on how we define "holding on". If a person shows a complete lack of interest in his or her spouse, they can hardly expect the spouse to want to stay around.

Part of the problem with the Pitt-Jolie model is that he left Jen in a spectacularly public fashion and seemed to pull the rug out right from under her. It has got to resonate with scads of women and plays into our worst fears. I hear Ms. Jolie keeps Brad on a very short leash and has a big say on his love scenes in movies. Apparently she doesn't want happening to her what happened to Jen. She may be able to "hold on" to Brad for a while because she very much seems the dominate one in the relationship.

Interesting Maris, I am sure you will let us know if the rumour pans out and you become a celebrity. LOL The point isn't the holding on for me, or at least it's a different conversation. If you fall in love with someone else or fall out of love with your spouse then IMO you need to have the integrity to break up the marriage and THEN move on to another relationship. Having a bad marriage is never an excuse for jumping in bed with another person IMO.

Obviously yall don't know what I mean when I say hold on to your man. And I'm saying that to say that the blame is not on Angelina. But again I like Brad with Angelina <shrug>.

I think anyone who fools with a married man is partly to blame for the marriage break-up. Just my opinion, but I have no respect for women who do so. I always put myself in the wife's position and would never entertain a married man who was looking for some fun on the side. Do what I did--get a divorce first!

So then, here are some women you would consider <25>: Cate Capshaw (Steven Spielberg/Amy Irving) Nicole Kidman (Tom Cruise/Mimi Rogers) Nancy Reagan (Ronald Reagan/Jane Wyman) when you are high profile and can see what level of humiliation will be heaped on the dumpee I never really saw Jennifer Aniston as humiliated. She seems to have moved on well to me. She seems like the epitome of that phrase "Living well is the best revenge". She has great fame without being constantly hounded like Pitt is. She is not lacking in suitors. She has many offers for many projects. Sometimes things just don't work out in relationships. Sometimes our spouses don't fulfill our needs. They all seem like they're doing okay.

I don't think thats even in question Beekind...of course relationships don't work out. I actually never saw Brad and Jen as staying material but theres a way to end a relationship with compassion and respect....and then theres Brads way... he's missing a sensitivity chip! I didn't know that Nicole was in the picture while Mimi was still in it?? I remember hating Tom for renewing his marraige vows to Nicole a few months before her left her for Penelope...yuk!

I know marriages don't work. BUT, if it doesn't work, GET OUT...don't cheat. I don't think there is ever a case where adultery is acceptable. And yes, I do and can think less of those women and men who commited adultery.

NO I really liked Christian Brando. He had a lot of problems and was troubled, but I liked him anyway. I just read an article about him the other day.

Also, was it Christian Brando who was also dating Robert Blake's wife that was murdered? Memory is fuzzy, but, wasn't that the last public stuff we were hearing about Christian?

Let's see--I wish I kept last week's tabloid. I know for a while he was living a pretty low key life in Washington State with his girlfriend, and he had moved back to Hollywood recently for rehab I believe. I think what's happening is that these celebs may have weakened immune systems from past drug use, and then a super bug moves in and kills them. There are a lot of super bugs this year. I think in part due to global warming. That's my spin, I have this whole theory...

Unfortunately, his wiki entry has some pretty dark accusations I didn't know about... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Brando

NY, those were the first things that popped into my mind. The whole thing with his sister. Seemed to be a rather troubled man. And I've remembered a bit more: Bonnie Lee Bakely Blake had said that Christian was her baby's father and then it turned out to be Robert Blake's baby.
