Glaucus I think what you said is nearer the mark. I married my first husband. I always said it was a collision of genes. Something in me (although I obviously didn't realise it at the time ) thought "His genes and my genes will make beautiful children") His supplied the things that mine lacked (longevity and robustness) and mine (intelligence and vivacity) Makes me sound awful but the truth is, as soon as he had supplied the required children I completely shut off from him. Just like a pilot light going out. Nothing to do with him being at fault in any way. He did nothing wrong. I am afraid to say it was a case of "You have served your purpose. We are done now" I remember thinking that at the time. Brad Pitt, even though he's Brad Pitt is still like any other man. He likes to do a good days work. Come home. A bit of time to himself. Some t.v. Maybe some sex. Sleep. And there's Angelina with all her complications and insecurities and her desperate need to have a ridiculous amount of children. It's not about the children. How could she possibly give all of those offspring the quality time they need? If she want's to save orphaned children why does she just not open an amazing orphanage? Their home must resemble one anyway. Piling in more kids before the others have even got settled or adapted. It resembles those people who start off with one cat and then up with 22 because they can't say No. I think she has all those children to fill a need in herself and not through any altruistic purpose. I sense a few car crash kids coming out of that household. I hope I'm wrong. But I reckon he is most likely to think "I'm 46. Do I really need all this hassle at my time of life? Underneath it all, we all want a quiet life!IP: Logged |

Lol and you think Angelina is just sitting at home all day waiting for Brad?? She works too. She likes to come home, relax and sleep just like any other HUMAN. And as for their amount of children: Brad himself has said numerous times (even when he was married to Jen) that he wanted to have at least 6 kids. People speculated that's why he left her (Jen didn't want any children at that point in her career). Don't try to paint Angelina as a whiney harpy with baby issues just because she's a woman.

It's nothing to do with her being a woman. It's the fact that on her own admission she's complicated (read neurotic) And on his own admission he is not the worlds most exciting man. Even Jen said that. Apparently his interest is furniture and that's it. Lots of people say they want six kids. The reality is somewhat different. And even if you want six kids I think most people would prefer it if they arrived slightly spaced out not in one great dollop and from all corners of the globe. Not fair to the kids I don't think. But it's just my opinion that's all. Don't get your knickers in a twist  IP: Logged |

quote: It wasn't just you B. The general tone was from a few people. I have a right to express myself without being told how & in what format I should do it, period.It seems that I didn't respond how other thought I ought too, I don't like that. If you don't agree say so & say why if that pleases you. So as one free person to another can I remind us & other who hinted quite blatantly, that we aren't living in communist China.
No one said you weren't entitled to your opinion, nor did anyone censor you. What happened, was other people had a different opinion than you did, and they expressed it. Period. It seems you are the one living in communist China, because you are saying that your opinion can't be challenged without it making you feel like you can't speak your mind. I don't think anyone here said you weren't entitled to your opinion -- some of us just disagreed with it and said so -- that is free speech, not communism. IP: Logged |

DD: I read about Charlize and Stuart...but I think its a rumour no? Same as Angelina & Brad's separation is a rumour??? Oh this just occured to me today I thought it was funny since I read this thread! My opinion is that Angelina is not a ***** or a homewrecker...some people really do fall in love while they are with other people, it happens, though its very rare to have a Paul Newman/Joanne Widward type of love!
Anyway, here is a true story: I know this man I work with him the past year and a half. We became and are still very good pals. I introduced him, at my brothers birthday party last summer, to my single wonderful friend, Michelle. My friend has been married to his wife for the past 7 years together about 9 total, he is 33 years old now. Their marriage has been stormy since they met, but its wild of passion and very unpredictable, but according to him it was always a frustrating relationship. Anyway my friend has fallen in love with Michelle and vice versa. He has been separated from his wife for several months (but still living at their home) and now seeing my friend. Now the funny part was that one evening he went back to the apartment to rest and watch some TV after work, his wife was there! His wife was trying to seduce him and have sex with him. He told me when his wife was touching his leg he felt like he was cheating on my friend! Imagine that! I really do wish my friend and him the best and I hope the divorce goes smoothly, but i don't know! IP: Logged |

I disagree Diana quote: I was replying in response to people who were calling angelina a "skank"
These are your words & I was the only one who called her a skanky ho. This was a passive aggressive backhanded smack on the nose by you to me. You should at least have the balls to stick by your comments. I am. IP: Logged |

I agree with you Spanky! True, Angelina does do great things for charity, but what are her true intentions behind these acts? Does it come from the heart? Or does it come from the intention of presenting a positive image to the world (making herself look good)? I don't trust her, and can't believe people are so conned by her. Just my opinion of course.IP: Logged |

There was absolutely nothing passive aggressive about it. I disagreed and I said so. I am sticking by my comments, where have I changed them? You don't like it that I disagreed with your statement and said so, then you said you felt like it was communist China. You also got really pitiful-like in attitude, and said you couldn't express your feelings. It seems to me that you were the one being passive aggressive, and acting like a communist, by trying to make everyone feel they couldn't say anything against what you said. Passive aggressive -- in not saying who you meant and by acting like a different point of view was an act to silence you. Like a communist -- no one can have a different opinion than you and not be censoring you in your opinion. If you call someone, especially a celebrity, a nasty name you should know that someone will have a different opinion than you. I've done it and people have come at me for it too. I never said I felt like it was communist China though, and that I was meant to feel I couldn't express my opinion. I just took it for what it was -- a difference of opinion and continued to state my opinion. If you'd rather play the victim, your choice. Have fun at your pity party.
Oh, and for the record, I didn't mean to single you out, but your phrase stuck in my head. I didn't recall who said it and didn't want to accuse the wrong person, nor did I want to go back and reread because I can be lazy like that. I actually was seconding and elaborating with someone else who had posted before me, and said that in the post...don't recall who that was either, but it was right before me. I said that in my initial post as well. I really have no idea why I even have to justify my opinion to you at all. We just have different opinions on the matter. You are being very sensitive about this, in a personal way, that has nothing (that I can see) to do with your opinion. IP: Logged |

Can you read Diana? Because it seems that you are taking issue with me over something that you misunderstood or just had the ***** with period. You didn't like my comment about being told what to say, & how to respond appropriately. Perhaps you should re-read your own posts with a more detached mind & you will see what I am talking about. I took no offense at your comments about Angelina Jolie or Brad, I only stated my own personal feelings about the woman which upset you it seems. I was also referred to in that post of yours as letting Brad of the hook & blaming Angie for everything which is your mistake. You assume that I don't place any blame on him because I didn't mention him. Don't assume Diana because U make an A$$ out of U & me. IP: Logged |

Let me break it all down for you Diana & then you just might see my point, well, that is if you are open minded.You said quote: No one said you weren't entitled to your opinion, nor did anyone censor you. What happened, was other people had a different opinion than you did, and they expressed it. Period.
And you said this previously quote: I am not saying the mistress is right.In fact, I say several times I don't think she is, but nobody seems to notice that. I was replying in response to people who were calling angelina a "skank" but not saying one derogatory word about the man that broke his vows -- Brad Pitt. Once again, everyone just focuses in on the other woman and misses the point of the whole reason for my postings, which was to call out people using derogatory names for a woman, while ignoring the man. Only one other person took issue with this and my response was to agree with her and expand on what I thought about women bashing the other woman, while saying nothing about the man, thus relinquishing him, in a way, of his misdeed.
This in simple terms says that you didn't approve of my comment & in fact I did not answer it correctly as you saw it. The 'people' you were referring to is me. It was me that you were talking about indirectly, which is passive aggressive,, period! You also ignored my comment about Brad.... quote: I'm not say he isn''t to blame as well, for me it goes without saying, but obviously it needs to be said
Did you miss it? I also said.... quote: Her humanitarian endeavors may be wonderful & more power to her for it.
As far as I understood the thread it was about the rumors of break up etc, not her humanitarian work. If it had been the tone of my posts would have reflected my thoughts on that instead. So what I'm saying is why can't you say "I think angie is..... regardless of what anyone else thinks" & leave it at that? I'm going to assume to answer for you here & say that you appear to find it more fun to passively berate me for my opinion. Or am I getting it wrong? Did I not read your responses correctly? Or is your ego so out of control that you must continue to 'put me in my place' for not agreeing with your thoughts? IP: Logged |

You may call it that but I like to think of it as standing up for myself when others try to push me around. I generally prefer peacefulness Diana but not this time. I will ague my point. Whether you acknowledge it or not is no matter.
Perhaps you do not like it when others challenge you? IP: Logged |

I actually was NOT referring solely to you, but to you AND others who responded after my post that I felt didn't understand my point that I was trying to make. You were not the only person to respond. I said "others" - plural. I said "people" because I meant "people" (plural). For some reason you think I was only talking about you, but I wasn't. I do not know why you think this, because I would have had zero problem naming you specifically. I would have no problem saying now that it was solely you I was talking about, but it wasn't.

I never once made any reference to her humanitarian causes, etc. That was someone else. Again, I wasn't "berating" YOU. I was "berating" EVERYONE who blamed her for the affair. I'm sorry and confused you saw it as me going after you, but like I said, I have no problem personally naming someone I am taking issue with...
quote: Or am I getting it wrong? Did I not read your responses correctly? Or is your ego so out of control that you must continue to 'put me in my place' for not agreeing with your thoughts?
You are getting it wrong. I was addressing everyone (not just you) who bad mouthed Angie on the affair but said little about Brad. I am not trying to "put you in your place," but expressing my opinion. It seems your ego is the one out of control, since you take "others" to mean you and you alone, even after I say it wasn't just you. and that I have no problem naming names of people I am taking issue with. If you don't believe me, ask Lara... PS -- I actually sort of enjoy being challenged to a debate.
PPS-- This has pluto transit written all over it. You said you were a libra -- is pluto squaring your sun yet? It would make sense if it was. If it is, you'll be having confrontations like this a lot.

my thoughts: we should not judge brad n angelina .. we don't know what we would do in their position .. personally, I don't think I'd be able to resist Brad Pitt :Pas for not trusting them: we don't have to deal with them on a day to day basis .. they're not part of our lives .. so how does it matter? If the good they do helps someone & the end result is people who need help get it .. seems like a good action with good results .. better than sitting around discussing other people's choices & judging them .. .. anyway .. I think we should probably just stick to the astrological study, only examine their aspects, transits and see if (astrologically) it was possible to see their split coming .. was it?? I think that would be the most interesting thing here .. if someone cud've predicted this accurately & how .. for those of us who don't know astrology yet .. should we choose to study this case in particular .. it may bring greater understanding into how transits play out. we're here to discuss astrology & learn as much about it as possible .. not to judge people .. well at least that's y I joined this forum.

its wierd to think that everything thinks they know how angelina jolie and brad pitts lives are or how they are with each other or whatever. no one actually knows them..and mags lie all the time just to get a story out.. so how can you make a judgment on them too let alone just guess why they broke up or got together. wierd how personal people get with a person just becuase their in a movie or on telivision. maybe some of this would be valid if someone that actually knew them was on here. but thats not gonna happen.

jaque and Beholdastarteexactly.how can we judge someone we dont know?and again....even if we knew them..we wouldnt have the right to judge them still. astrologially speaking i guess the charts i posted talk volumes about ehir relationship.they were meant to meet and be a couple. About breaking ups...well usually it is said that when a break up occurs uranus has to do with it,specially when transiting the 7th. but that doenst work for everybody i guess cause in my relationship Tr Uranus passed our 7thcomposite and there was no breakup  IP: Logged |

"About breaking ups...well usually it is said that when a break up occurs uranus has to do with it,specially when transiting the 7th.but that doenst work for everybody i guess cause in my relationship Tr Uranus passed our 7thcomposite and there was no breakup " Robert Hand made a point...if the relationship is strong and healthy,it will survive challenging transits. If it's weak and unhealthy, the relationship is likely to end which can actually be a blessing.
Challenging aspects can be a hidden blessing in disguise by giving us what we need and not what we want, and those 2 aren't the same. of course, free will is the ultimate factor. Raymond

Well, there's saturn on uranus and about to cross the AC. Uranus rules the 5th house. Neptune in on mars, can indicate arguments. Mars rules DC, or the relationship. Pluto is about to hit the IC, which is usually intensity, transformation, and power struggles in the home. Pluto here is not a fun transit. T. Jupiter going over their stellium will either help them or hurt them. Jupiter transits are difficult to predict. They just expand everything, for good or bad. IP: Logged |
