R183, why this bullying of Angelina Jolie?
I’ve needed massive distractions this weekend, being that unforeseen events happened, in which I almost lost my mother. Thank god forDL, because the distraction was provided for fun and for free.
So, I was actually thinking about this woman. Why is she constantly demonized? She obviously has issues, but she doesn’t strike me as a bad person. She needs help, and recovery from her “stuff”.
I think this woman, warts and all, really loved her partner. I also think her partner has major anger issues that were even worse than his alcoholism and drug addiction. I think he adored her, but also was a controlling asshole, capable of violence and/or threatening behaviors. I don’t think she was the one displaying that. It was him.
If he got sober, and got his shit together, good. But you are delusional if you think she was some menacing bitch.
I cannot fault her for losing it. Look at how he is mowing her over right now. This guy has power. He can wipe his ass with this woman, and he actually hasn’t. He’s actually holding back and trying to be nice. But “nice” is not the real Brad Pitt that this woman was/is married to. He’s a very angry man who is accustomed to getting his way.
These two belong together and deserve each other, because they actually loved and probably still love one another. But if she can’t do it, I don’t blame her.
She gave up everything to be this guy’s wife, and yes, he is an excellent provider, and would most probably do anything to take care of his kids AND her, but that doesn’t mean he gets to be an asshole to her. And I bet he was.
I have seen this in my own life. The man who I love dearly, is a secret asshole and jerk. He’s a good person, and he loves me, and he’s no slouch, in any department, and women are crazy about him, but he wanted to control me and disregarded me in ways that I just cannot overlook. He painted me as a complete cunt when I decided to leave and take care of me, because in his mind, the only person capable of taking care of me was him. And that’s just not true. And now his anger and obsession with me is that he just cannot believe someone walked away from him. I didn’t want to, but he was nothing but a box of misery and drug issues that I personally cannot be privy to because of my own recovery.
Men don’t have to lay a finger on you to be abusive.
Carolyn Kennedy was the real deal bitch. No way was Jolie a bitch to her husband. Two completely different women with two very different men.
JFK, Jr. was genuinely nice.
