[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 655922, member: 3493"] I read GWTW for the first and last time when I was 12. I enjoyed it, though I didn't really "get" the Southerness of it, being a child who lived in a housing project in the South Bronx. I saw the movie in the theater when it was released for some anniversary, possibly the 30th, Like SWOT, I enjoyed the book more but have seen the movie again. To me, Scarlett is a total NPD, combined with borderline. She reminded me so much of my sister, who even at age 8 was a histrionic drama queen and she is, therefore, one of my least favorite movie heroines. I actually cheered for Rhett when he left her on the doorway. As for can love die, from my experience, I say yes. When H cheated on me and I found out, I still loved him and wanted to work it out. One day, I walked in and found him on the phone with his POS. I began screaming, grabbed the phone and screamed at it and slammed the phone down before walking out of the room. I hadn't even reached the door when he picked up the phone, dialed it back and APOLOGIZED for the mean way I spoke to it. I literally felt the love for him leave my body at that moment and it's never come back, more than 10 years later. I won't divorce him and I care about him as the father of my children, but my love for him is dead and gone. [/QUOTE]
