Who can say what goes on behind closed doors but I am certain that the women in Mick's life get/got just as much or more out of the relationship as Mick does/did.
Forgive me Naturalust, but that set off my BS radar. There is no way we can be certain about anything in their personal lives, it's mostly speculation. But for most people, infidelity rips the heart out no matter what the material compensations are.

Well latebloomer, infidelity is not always what it may be to you. Sometimes is is a shared dream. It may be a bit simplistic to believe that two people can meet all each other's people needs.
I have seen very positive results of people finding love outside of marriage in later life, honesty and management expectations are the key to protecting the heart. If you really love someone you eventually want them to be happy, even it that means sharing someone else's bed.
If you said dishonesty I might agree with you but infidelity in and of itself is not evil, just part of Mick's dream. It seems the smart money would expect this from someone like Mr. Jagger and act accordingly. I doubt Mick ever promised anyone thay they would be the only one when sex was concerned.
As far as heart ripping actions I abhore them as much as you. I try to give more than I recieve and I respect your opinion but please spare me the BS label. peace

Naturalust, I have nothing against you, but your way of putting things sounds sometimes as if a younger person is pretending to be older than he is, having more life experience and wisdom than he actually has. Sometimes it is irritating, but mostly it's funny. I don't want to patronize you, but if you want people to take you more seriously you better be a little bit less pretentious.
Reread for instance this part of your post up here and think about the consequences of your argument:
"I have seen very positive results of people finding love outside of marriage in later life, honesty and management expectations are the key to protecting the heart. If you really love someone you eventually want them to be happy, even it that means sharing someone else's bed."
Notice in particular that one is never able to judge other people's relationships, no matter what they tell you about their relationship and how they experience it.

If the article can be believed

If it is a shared dream, as you put it, then I agree. Dishonesty is perhaps a better word, I agree with that as well. But your statement that you are certain that Mick's women got as much out of the relationship as he did is what I was referencing as BS. You can't be certain of that and I think it's persumptuous of you to say so. If the article can be believed than it sure looks like it was miserable for Jerry Hall, especially right after giving birth. That's what was in my mind when I responded to your post. I do apologize for my use of the term, it wasn't necessary.

From my perspective, if a woman wants to have an affair with a known womanizer, it is HER responsibility to take care of herself...her body and her emotions. As someone said earlier, you do not know what it's like to be Mick, having gorgeous women throwing themselves at him, even NOW, 24/7.
How many guys here that call him a " dirt bag" can honestly say they would behave differently? If you say that you'd run AWAY from the ladies, I say you're being dishonest, unless you're gay and then it's a different thing entirely.( if you're gay, you would probably chase MICK!).
Carla is the one who sounds like a creep! A true STAR F*****! I had not hear those things about her before...who knows how much is true however. She sure knew Mick was married and with a new baby at home...it takes two, and in this case, she looks pretty shameless.
I thing you're right, Sweet thing, he probably prefers to be " single" at least legally. That may be how L'Wren has learned to keep his interest; she feigns indifference, pretends to not worry about his cheating on her. Apparently he must believe it, it's worked so far!

Carla does sound like a piece of work, but I don't think you can let Mick off the hook entirely because women threw themselves at him. Leaving a woman who has just had your baby so you can spend an idyllic vacation with your mistress seems pretty heartless to me no matter who you are. In any case, all parties have moved on.
