Let me clear state that I don’t want Lindsay to return to her former lifestyle habits. She has proven to herself that she is able to stay off of drugs and get rid of bad influences. I believe, from her interviews, that she has really changed her habits and is trying very hard to built up her career.

I am just saying, from the standpoint of her and Samantha’s relationship, IF they EVER break up, I think that Lindsay might want to seriously consider not entering a relationship until she is able to feel comfortable about herself and ready about it.

However, as I have said, these are MY OPINIONS, and Lindsay is ultimately responsible for her own decisions. No one in the universe can stop her from entering a new relationships, going back to exes, or make new friends. But, I do think that Calum Best isn’t a good person for her to be around. Maybe I am being too judgmental without the facts, but Best doesn’t have a great record. IF Lindsay ever decided to go back to him, it would just spell a lot of pain and trouble for her.

IF what they are saying is true in the media (95% what folks are reporting is usually bull), then I think that it’s good that Lindsay and Samantha go to counseling. In order for Samantha’s and Lindsay’s relationship to work, they are going to have attempted to be equal partners–and for me, that best way for this to work is for each person to treat his or herself well.

My thought process is that a relationship cannot be successful if there is something going on with both parties individually. Samantha, like the rest of us, isn’t perfect, and Lindsay isn’t either, but I do think that a lot of their problems (I speculate) are deriving from individual problems or views from each one of them. I believe that’s why they are having issues.

Larry R. I respect your opinion, but I also respectfully disagree with when you talk about you would be okay if Lindsay danced up on one of her friends.

I am not saying, by any means, Lindsay shouldn’t have friends. I think that she should have positive, supportive friends that will help her grow throughout her life. Yet, they are difficult to find in L.A. because, as you see, the people that she used to hangout around, in my opinion, were DEADBEATS. They are only caused her trouble. BIG TROUBLE.

Yet, I don’t see Best as her friend, and no, (if the rumors are true and I highly doubt that they are), you are right and said it before in another post: Samantha does not have the right to put her hands on Lindsay and vice versus. Yet, Samantha does have the right to get angry at Lindsay (without striking her or being emotionally or verbally abusive which I think that Samantha didn’t have anything to do with it because they would have been bruises on Samantha’s face if Lindsay clawed and scratched at her as drama rags reported) because Lindsay is dancing with an ex provocatively he is not a good influence on Lindsay’s life. I am sure that’s why Lindsay got rid of him in the first place.

Bottom line: I hope that Samantha and Lindsay and work it out, and both women continue to grow and advance in their careers and emotional stability. If they break up, I hope that Lindsay takes out the time to continue finding herself before she gets involved in another serious relationship. I think that Lindsay is certainly strong enough to rise to the occasion because she has done it successful well this year (yes, with a few mistakes along the way.)

I agree that Lindsay has been through a lot of rough experiences in her life than most younger people shouldn’t; however, to me, she is still rather young and doesn’t have experience in everything. I can understand what Lindsay has been through because I grew up in a rough family environment, and there are many responsibilities had to take on. I had to mature fast for my age; however, when I went off to college to further my education, I still was inexperienced about many things.

Yes, Lindsay had many relationships, and I believe many of them are partly due to her not wanting to be alone or feel lonely. I remember one of my college roommates who revealed to me one night that she never wanted to be alone. For her, being alone was scary. That’s why she always had to be in the a room with people–and I think this is because if there was no one there, she really would have to look in the mirror and face her own demons.

Lindsay is her own person; she is responsible for her own decisions and who she wants to be with, who she wants to include in her life, how she wants to live her life, and especially what kind of path she wants to travel. None of us can tell her what to do…and as much as I would like for her to explore other options like college or being alone to get herself together, it’s not my choice. It’s her choice.

Yet, from my own perspective and what I’ve been reading in the media, it appears, as I have said, what will eventually split Lindsay and Samantha apart, if they are able to get a handle on it, is the place that they are in their lives and their personalities.

I do think that Lindsay loves Samantha and is drawn to her because she is quiet. For Lindsay, it’s refreshing to have someone in your life that doesn’t place certain demands on you like others in the past. However, what will get in between them unless they can work it out is the fact that Lindsay will always be a public figure unless she decides to give that all away and live a more peaceful life–far a way from L.A. and the public scene. I just don’t think that Lindsay will give it up. She loves acting. She also enjoys fashion and other activities that draw attention to the spotlight.

And Green is right on the money when he/she has expressed that Samantha is the exact opposite. Samantha doesn’t want to deal with the paparazzi when she didn’t have to before she became exclusively, intimately involved with Lindsay. If you look at several videos that are you, you can see the uncomfortably Samantha gets when the paparazzi is all over them taking pictures. I don’t blame Samantha for getting fed up about it. I am sure that she kept her feelings inside until she cracked.

Yes, you hardly see Samantha kissing Lindsay in public, and Samantha has said that she refuses to talk about Lindsay in the press because she is Lindsay is her friend.

I am not saying one way or the other Lindsay will change if she and Samantha were to break up. All I am saying is that Lindsay will continue to have these problems if she can’t deal with her internal issues. We all have them; even if her and Samantha were to ever part, Lindsay may have these problems in her future relationships if she doesn’t take care of her self internally.

You can’t hide from yourself. Sooner or later, you are going to have to deal with. I truly believe that Lindsay is dealing with it, but it may not be a good time to be in a relationship with someone while she is trying to continue to work it out herself and improve on herself.
