Comment on The Lucky One by joycereview

I’m not much of a reader. I start out on one book and usually get bored and move on to another. But with the truly great books… I’ll quickly finish it, or get back to it at some point. The last book I read, The Road was the later, and I really enjoyed it. And I haven’t ready any other McCarthey books to find the similarities…. however, I love how you’ve been able to find Sparks’ “signature uses” in his novels.

The “Crab shack” had an inference in the movie “Message in a Bottle” which I remember. And I’ll agree that, if the book is anything like the movie, the two fall in love far too fast. And I’ll also agree that, since I saw The Notebook, the two films have (more or less) the same sort of “love/bond.”

One of these days, after I bring you up on the Dune mythology, we’ll have to read the book Dune together. It is by far, my favorite book and it’s depth is uncanny! Looking forward to your next review love! I’m subscribed.

Everyone else subscribe too! She’s great.

Right now I am going through exactly what you went through! I am 15 years old and my boyfriend is 27. He is the gentlest, kindest, most caring person I have ever met in my life. I wish I could write more…but I am quite tired. Your post has given me hope and has made my day brighter all the same

cheers!

Great post- thank you for this. I am currently dating someone who is 20 years my senior…. at first I was hesitant in my attraction for him, as he know he was with me, but everyday proves to be more and more rewarding.

Thank you!

Life is definitely too short to waste on dating the wrong guys just based on what other people think you should be paired with.

I have had a healthy 3 year relationship with someone 18 years older than me and he’s my trophy boyfriend because my heart says so.

You’re the one in a relationship with your man, so it’s really nobody’s business who you are in love with.

Just came across your blog. We have been reading about the Republican Vice Presidential candidate, and policy matters apart, while I admire her resolve and guts to go ahead , deliver and take care of her Downs syndrome affected 6th child, I am absolutely aghast that her 17 year old daughter is pregnant, and the parents were simply not bothered about what was happening. If they cannot spare the time to teach their kids how to be responsible, they simply need to prioritize their stuff better. Vice Presidency will give you a great 4 -8 years, but you’ve messed up your child for life.

I blog from Mumbai, India, and although globalization has hit us, we still wonder about how the mother can stand up in a convention and treat the whole thing as a show of family values…..

don’t be talkin’ trash about Juno, I love that movie! I don’t know that girls are having babies b/c they wanna relate to the main character… i just don’t believe that. But in a time when it’s casual to say, “i wanna have his babies” as a reference to liking someone… i can see where younger kids can get the wrong idea. But chalk it up to television and media that feed images of what girls should look like, how they should act like, show what gets you attention, fame, money, love, etc. It’s maddening, all of it. But although i don’t know if i agree with all of paragraph one… I do agree with paragraph two. Kids do want to grow up too fast and they take on things that they are not ready for… but we should blame ourselves a little… and parents need to recognize that they can still sit down and talk to their kids about these things. Big topic…. you could write a whole new blog around this.

I believe that teenage pregnancy (excepting that as resultant from rape) is a symptom of something gone wrong in the family. Girls with little or no self respect are more likely to get pregnant at an early age. This can come from a lack of attention, lack of proper boundaries, lack of supervision, lack of involvement in their lives from especially their fathers and even some kind of assault or abuse sexual or otherwise – even verbal. You can’t blame it on games or baby dolls. There is nothing new there. Girls have been socialized to nurture babies forever – it is nearly universal. (One tribe in, if memory serves me correctly, New Guinea encourages boys to be more nurturing than girls).

These girls are at risk because their families have let them down in one way or another. Having sex – even having a baby suddenly gives them something and/or someone to be a part of…
