I know if I was Mr. Tupac being a friend would be the furthest thing from my mind when talking about that woman.
But anyway, I feel that posting that picture is disrespectful to her current situation with Will. She is a married woman and there is no reason that she should be publicly reminiscing over a past lover. I am not telling her to not miss him but why pull this? Why do you need to make it a public thing? I feel it is disrespectful and I am sure some of you will use the insecure card and rightfully so.
What are your thoughts on this?
What are my thoughts?
That you're making an assumption about the relationship of two people you don't know and never will know and taking offense over it, when in actuality, it COULD just be (and VERY MOST LIKELY is) that they are just two people who grew up together and went to high school together, and as such she misses her murdered friend -- particularly now that a hologram of him is pasted over the media and being discussed everywhere she turns.
I'm just saying, you ever hear the adage "you know what happens when you assume?"
NOW if this is an excuse for you to rant about women (and I mean women specifically since most of your posts seem directed at knocking them down and praising masculinity - read: misogyny) posting on networking sites about their exes while actively in relationships then I think you should make that clearer. The Jada Pinkett example is shaky.
If however you're specifically talking about Jada, then my further thoughts are that you spend too much time worrying about other people.

I have no problem with this. Whether they were more than friends or not they maintained a good friendship up until his signing with Deathrow. Even though she wasn't happy with a lot of his actions around that time she still loved him dearly. It's almost as if you're assuming she misses being with him when she may only miss her friend. Jada knew the side of Pac that a lot of people fail to see. She knew that he was capable of accomplishing more. I see nothing more here than a friend missing a friend.

I was discussing this with someone and we talked about how this woman should go about grieving. I feel that she shouldn't grieve publicly. I don't feel she should grieve to her new man. But if she does, the new man will probably not say anything because no matter what, if he says, "I'm not trying to hear that" he will be perceived as a jerk. But I don't think many people would want to hear someone talk about their dead ex-husband. I couldn't deal with that and I would respectfully request that I am not part of that grieving process. You have female friends for that. Go visit the grave. That is fine but I wouldn't be cool with having a discussion about how much you missed/loved him.
What are your thoughts on that situation?
