Shakira and Antonio |
Shakira wrote on her blog today, “During our almost 11 years together we have loved each other deeply, taken care of each other and stood by one another. They have been the most wonderful years of our lives.”
The singer noted, however, they mutually decided to break up in August “to take time apart from our romantic relationship. Throughout this time we have continued to work together hand in hand, have remained close and have kept the details absolutely private until now. We view this period of separation as temporary and as a time of individual growth as we continue to be partners in our business and professional lives. Antonio continues to oversee and conduct my business and career interests as he has always done. We move forward as partners, developing projects together, working hand in hand and in close communication.”
How sad.
They said it is temporary.. so no big deal!
ReplyDelete"How sad"? What? Sad they broke up? Why go through life unhappy? Feeling is the secret to long life. Happy feeling is everythingggggg. They both have done the right thing. It's better that after 11 years of being together they decided to go their separate ways rather than forever make each other unhappy. I was once in similar long term situation. After 6 years, ended it. I am and was so glad it ended. I felt liberated. Wished I’d ended it within 24 hours. Wished that I never met that person. True. My time was wasted. Life's too short; time is everything. If I'd remained in it for 11 years, I think I'd have thrown myself in river Thames. Really. Happiness and peace of mind is a trillion times better than "love" or keeping up stupid pretence to please friends and family. Relationship (I think) has its usefulness, but most times is a hindrance to unlimited success and bliss. Smh :)
ReplyDelete11 years wow. What can't be reconciled in love? Maybe I'm too optimistic.
ReplyDelete11 years is no joke o..when you've stayed with a person for that long, unless he/she's abusive and/or a serial cheater, the spark can always be rekindled...
ReplyDeleteso yes, it's sad that they decided to let go..
well, IMO.
