Chad Ochocinco recently spoke to Peter Bailey for NiteCap about his ex-wife Evelyn Lozada who just gave birth to a baby boy with Carl Crawford of the LA Dodgers and spoke of his undying love that is still present for her:
“Discipline, I lack it. Dealing with one woman…it didn’t have anything to do with South Beach or living in Miami. I don’t care how fine you are..for every fine woman you see there’s a dude who’s tired of that same woman. Human nature is undefeated. What I’ve always done, even in past relationship, was tell the truth from jump. I never lied. Why sell you a dream? There are men out there that are willing to give their all and have the discipline to be able to give them that story book ending, that fairytale as I so call it. I think I’m good for that for about a good 6 months but at some point I don’t care how fine you are, I’m going to lose interest.”
I'm very indifferent about his statements honestly. Reason being, I understand that Ochocinco (like most other wealthy men) have an array of women to choose from on a regular basis so the thought of committing to only one for a monogamous relationship probably sounds silly. But in my opinion, these situations are very one-sided and my thing is, why marry if you know you're about that life?
What's the point of exchanging vows if the commitment isn't strong enough for you to at least want to try to have the type of dedication you would expect out of her?
I can't really fault him completely though because he said he honestly told her what time it was. But even when I was much younger and I had friends/peers of mine who married at a very early age (18, 19, etc.) I never (personally) felt the need to get married to prove anything. Not that I felt my friends did that, but you know how some friends try to act like each other. I had a boyfriend, but I wasn't about to act like I was joining the newlywed club when I barely knew what I was doing as a girlfriend back then.
At some point, common sense of knowing who you're dealing with has to kick in. It's one thing if someone is specifically telling you that it's okay to mess around, but I believe that most people (even open minded ones who let their mate step out) will flip script the second they feel they are being short-changed by that situation in any way.
They were a good looking couple too. But LAWD, one of the messiest.
