Anyway, i've always thought that if Angelina's & Brad's relationship didn't work out, that the reason would probably be because Angelina IS, like the article says, a "free spirit" who i could imagine becoming bored by conventional, 43-year-old, "traditional family man" Brad. I was one of the (seemingly) few people who totally believed that woman Jenny Shimizu in those interviews she gave about Angelina. --Especially when Jenny said Angelina is a free spirit who will "never be tamed" and will "certainly never be anybody's housewife" and will eventually tire of Brad & move on, and all that. I mean, WTF do I know about Angelina Jolie, but i just personally can imagine these things to be true, and that like this article says, that Angelina, as much as she loves her kids (and maybe Brad too), that maybe she IS having a hard time adjusting to a structured, high-responsibility-laden, traditional role as "wife" & mother. She is, after all, still the same wild Angelina who did a lot of drugs (including heroin, by her own admission), was obsessed with death, liked to play with her knife collection, spent at least one stint in a mental hospital, and described herself as "self-destructive"....That wasn't all that long ago, and people don't ever really truly change all that much.
Sorry to ramble...I guess all i'm trying to say is, i never thought this relationship would work out...(I just don't see wild, free, unconventional, thrill-seeking Angelina being satisfied with Brad...I can better picture her with some wild, radical-thinking Goth dude or something.) But anyway, i've never been pro-Brangelina but since there are 3 kids involved, i hope things work out the best for all involved.
