Healthy Relationships Support Group
No relationship is perfect. A long-term relationship requires constant effort to understand each other, fix misunderstandings, solve problems and continue to grow as both individuals change and evolve. How we deal with our misunderstandings is the focus of this community. Join us to find support, get advice, and share your experience with your relationship.
A great actor, and the thing about actors is you never really know whether they're serious or if this seething hatred is just a ploy to manipulate this Oksana woman he's with.
I hope the guy pulls his head out of his arse and gets back on top of his anger and career. Far be it from me to understand the inner working of a romantic/sexual relationship (maybe this yelling and violence is what works for them), but it's pretty sad and embarrassing to watch the mighty crumble.
Heart goes out to the guy, but he's gotta find a way to manage and properly direct anger.
Its unfortunate that he spewed that much hate at his girlfriend and a whole group of people. Would he have said those things if he ever thought it would get out? Nope, he would have kept his hate and racism inside him.
I am sure that most of us have said terrible things in situations that we thought were private. I know the things I have screamed about my cheating ex-wife in the privacy of my own home could have lost me friends, gotten me thrown in jail, or slapped with a restraining order if anyone else had heard them.
Anyway, now that we have more proof of what lurks inside Mr. Gibson, we will look askance at everything he does and says in the public realm.
A man can't hook up with one of the sexiest women on the planet, and then try to make her into an ultra-conservative housewife, telling her to "dress down", "remove the fake breasts" etc.
If one listens to the words of the conversation, on Mel's part, remove the "F" words and "N" words, and the part about giving her a "ball-bat to the head"...they're not entirely unreasonable. He doesn't want her dressing sexy in public! But ya knew what you were getting into there, Mel. He delivers the lines with such seething viciousness and hatred, the Devil Incarnate...this is what made his filetting Brits in Braveheart so memorable, so, for all we know, this is simply another "performance", to hurt her emotionally, to get a reaction, to make her want him. Pretty fucked up.
Man, where's Danny Glover and Richard Donner, to come over and slap some sense into the guy! Danny Glover's obviously black and I'm sure Dick Donner's Jewish. Maybe they "abandoned" him, along with everyone else, 'cuz he's down and out, and he feels betrayed. Dunno (sigh)...exhausting...OK...onto my OWN life...
