Hi
This section is for your questions and thoughts about CHAPTER 7 of the JAM online feature.
Each chapter will be divided into its own chapter so as to make it easier to post & talk about each chapter seperately.
thank You Rickyrocks

Yeah!! Helena is coming into the picture. She had my approval when I was younger. The only other woman I would share Michael with. lol

Wow! He sure went through the women. I feel sorry for these girls that were dumped. One minute everything seemed okay and the next minute it was over. I don't know how any woman could get over Michael.

Sharon, the majority of those Michael stayed friends with though. As Tina has said in previous chapters , michael didnt like confrontation and didnt like to hurt peoples feelings, especially those he loved. At least they still shared a special friendship with him.
But i agree, to get over michael , would of been extremly hard. Im mean look at us, we didnt even know the man, but felt we did, and we arent over him !

Actually he was no different then so many men I know. My brother being the one that stands out front. I have never known my brother to be alone. Even before his divorce papers were signed he already had a live-in girlfriend. He makes me crazy. I wish my brother would spend some time alone just as Tina has said she wished Michael did. The one difference is that when my brother breaks up with them it is not friendly at all and I doubt he would want to run into any of them.

Sharon,
You and I have something in common in our brothers. Mine is a handsome lad and women seem magnetically attracted to him (my friends even tried to get me to set dates up with him) and he does the same.
I think the worse case was when he was engaged to a french girl, met an Aussie girl and ended up phoning the french girl to tell her they were splitting up once he hit Aussie shores. He has never had time alone either, so I can see why Tina said this to Michael too.

yeah....some men just cannot stay alone and without a woman by their side, not even a minute without knowing they are in a relationship and so was Michael. I thought about this too. Maybe it is just a manisfestation for a deep hidden depression because I think when one cannot stay alone this would show a certain helplessness in one way or another. As for Michael maybe due to the fast coming success without him changing as well.

It can happen to women too. Some have a hard time being alone. I know I do...I always have. I'm guessing it's probably b/c I am an only child. It doesn't matter if it's a man or women around, if someone is there, I feel better. So when I am alone, I have to turn on the tv, so I can hear talking or something.

I guess some people are person people and love to have company and others are comfortable in their own space - it's just who we are. Someone once said to me, "No one is better than another person, just different" I like that view of people.

I think what I learned most from this book was that most families are alike. When I read this book, I totally could replace Michael and Rhett with my two brothers.
They suffered from the same downfalls. I think it made Michael more real to me and made me more understanding of my brothers' flaws.

Michael dating Kylie. At the time I remember thinking Oh no. Oh no. Why? not that shes a bad person, I didnt think that but oh no. Nooo. Kylie was 'on the up' and Michael had already been there. I understand that. I thought the press' description of him educating Kylie, bad. Not bad for him personally I never thought he was a bad person. I did think after watching the dvd of wembley arena, backstage scenes, that Helena had been an item before Kylie. I always thought this. No offence to Kylie. Enebriated at christmas doesnt sound strange to me, why are the sober ones women? Interesting he thought of the villa as a location shoot, then everyone else made it his home. Himself included. I dont agree with tough love programmes for everyone, this has to be agreed with the person. otherwise it could have gone belly up, so to speak. Especially for Rhett. Does Tina find it odd when someone wants to look after her? especially when she is used to doing the looking after? It annoys me when people refer to his 'many women' then how come you can name them all? would you prefer it if he were lonely? I wish people would make up their mind. Either he is lonely or he has a girlfriend. In a studio all day alone/girlfriend? For a single guy maybe he wasn't thinking oh great marriage material? He likes to get to know people, he is attracted, single, away alot. Drunk. Cooking. whatever. Its always easier for those with a partner/spouse to judge/opinion those who do not. It was easier for you people may be not so with a gentler more sensitive person. Single guy even. I wish I had some of that olive oil though. Does anyone have a copy of that label for a nosey person?

When you think about it Michael did not have an over abundance of girlfriends -he was too busy and rarely in one place for very long. Also, it was not as if he was going to find someone at the local library or jogging at the park - his lifestyle was not so consistant as those of us with 'civilian' jobs.
I have had trouble accepting someone who wants to care for me. How insightful. I was born to be the carer I suppose. I wish I had kept one of those bottles from the olive oil -unfortunately they disappeared after Paula began visiting the villa. T.

I work in the bulding opposite The Connaught, so I walk past it everyday going to and from the train station. I think of Michael and Kylie every time I pass.
