I smell a novel
It's like the Michael Jackson-Lisa Marie thing.
Jordan,
That's not weird. It's creepy.
My skin is crawling at the thought of them together.
Maybe only someone who has been through the glare of the media spotlight can understand them, but...ewwwww.
Linda
Travis: The novel you smell is probably your own. Go for it!
Stephanie: That might have been slightly weirder.
Linda: You nailed it. Creepy!! Personally I find the tragic loss of a child a very bad reason to get together with someone :)
Wow, that's beyond creepy!
Sorry if I'm too romantic, but I don't find anything wrong with this. They probably feel understood by the other because they have gone through the same tragedy. And, most probably, they also like eachother independently from the tragedies. Maybe that was the way the Universe found to make them meet...?
Loving can never be wrong. What these 2 people do with the relationship that is something else as in any relationship. I just wish them wisdom to make something positive out of so much suffering.
Patricia: You are a kinder person than I am! Part of the disgust you see expressed here comes, I think, from the fact that we (north)Americans were subject to incessant media coverage about both cases to the point known as "Ad nauseum"...
I don't know why, but their "love" rings hollow to me. But I may be proven wrong yet--look at Mary Kay Letourneau and her jailbait student. She married him after she got out of jail!
I do, generally, support love in all its forms ;)
Jordan,
I don't accept that I'm kinder than you, no way. I'm sure the fact of my not having heard about these people before you mentioned them in your blog gave me just a different perspective (better or worse, I don't know, just different).
xo,
Patricia
