JESSICA’S ADVICE

I was reading The Huffington Post a little earlier and saw an article where singer Jessica Simpson was giving advice to women. She says, “If you're ever with anyone who says you should change something about yourself then they should never fall in love with you in the first place."
Putting her personal relationship history aside, I think this is interesting advice. It’s good advice but not just for women. I would give this advice to men, too. Yes, there is a time when you must put childish games aside but if someone wants to completely take away the light from your eyes, I think you have some hard decisions to make.
Is Jessica’s advice on point?
ANGELINA AND BRAD HAVE A PROBLEM

Actors Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have a problem and his name is bodyguard “Bill.” Mr. Bill has burned up the Internet with reports about Angie and Brad’s life together to garner enough interest for his tell-all book about the two. (You knew there had to be an angle.) He insists that Angelina is a controlling, self-centered woman with borderline abusive behaviors. He says that the mother of six laughs at her children when they cry. She also yells and then gives them the silent treatment. Her treatment of Brad isn’t much better; he claims that the two don’t even sleep in the same bed anymore and that Angelina nitpicks him.
I think it’s unfortunate that someone would seek to make money off other people’s lives. There are just too many other ways to get rich. However, I have to say that I don’t think “Bill” is lying about everything. Many of his claims sound totally believable. Case in point, the nitpicking. How many women do you know that don’t nitpick their mates? That’s what I thought. Second point, many people are already familiar with Angelina’s quirky behavior, i.e. wearing a vial of Billy Bob Thornton’s blood around her neck or cutting herself. It’s really not that hard to believe that she would laugh at her children when they cry.
Is “Bill” right for talking about Brad and Angelina’s life together?
