    It’s so good we have May Pang giving us an insight into Johns life that we’d never get from Yoko

      Siento que ella lo quiso de verdad pero sabía que nunca podría ser por Yoko.
      Lo que hacia no estaba bien, pero siento que fue buena influencia para John. Pudo frecuentar el músico a Julián y hasta se llevaba bien con doña Cinthia.

      In the end there was no one in the whole world John would rather be with than Yoko, he loved her and is probably glad he died with her as his wife instead of someone he didn't really love the same way like unfortunately Cynthia and May Pang, John was extremely happy with Yoko :)

    May Pang! What a delightful addition to the Beatles story! May was a ray of sunshine and escape from John's miserable existence with his second wife/jailer. John was ready to get back with the Beatles and try some things (!) as May says "enough time had passed". Not only enough time, but he'd gotten away from his jailer.
    But of course, his jailer getting wind of his plans, would not allow either his freedom with May to continue, or a Beatles reunion.

    I have heard an interview where John describes the separation from Yoko time as being absolutely misrable. May Pang describes it as a time when John was happiest --- meeting people -- being social and not stuck at home. Yoko came back stage after Elton John/John Lennon performed "whatever gets you thru the night". That is went it ended with Pang .... However, Pang says Yoko had John see a hypnotist about quiting smoking, and after that, John left her. Bottom line, it seems John made the choice as it is hard to believe that he was hypnotized to go back to Yoko.

      Depois que voltou para casa, Yoko repeliu John e disse que daria a liberdade para ele fazer o que ele achasse melhor. Que entre eles, precisariam de um tempo. Eu acho que a Yoko percebeu que o John estava perdido no que ele queria ser daquele dia em diante.
      Apesar deles terem gravado a música Imagine e feito um filme documentário para mostrar os bastidores de como foi montado a música, isso não era o bastante.
      Nisso, poderia acontecer deles se separarem em definitivo.

      Ela ligou para um amigo dela em Los Angeles que ajudou João com as acomodações.
      Ele ficou 1 ano e 8 meses longe da Yoko e ele que pediu para voltar. Esse tempo que ficou com a May, ele fala Semana Perdida.
      Nesse período, John fez sexo com muitas moças. Muitas delas, saindo na frente da May. May era a empregada deles. Ele nunca a amou.
      A Yoko estava na vanguarda do nosso tempo.
      Uma coisa que ela percebeu era que John precisaria ver-se, encontrar-se e decidir-se se queria continuar com os ex-companheiros e continuar a vida dele longe dela.
      Para fazer isso, a pessoa tem que ter muita certeza do seu amor por ele e do amor dele, por ela.

    May Pang was a Lucky Lady - Understatement. Yoko Ono is ONE very Clever Lady. She chose a girlfriend and a companion for her Husband as she recognised 'his Growth was still under Exploration" You cant honestly tell me, Yoko and John's Love wasn't real & full of Chemistry. Their Life History in Photos of Closeness and Finesse - Are Real - Bless. May Pang was No match to Yoko and May was an Very attractive 22 year old No doubt John loved her and was attracted to her and Thoroughly ABSORBED - His Lost Weekend- as he called that Period.

As part of their separation, John was given the green light by Yoko to head off with May Pang while they lived in LA during his ‘lost weekend’ of hard partying. Essentially, May Pang accepted a pleasuring role as a form of concubine.
