Good morning all! I skimmed last nights posts...big hugs to Floater for having the courage to share her story. You are in good company here Floater. Please continue to post!
Like I said, I skimmed, so I apologize if this has been discussed. On my way home from work yesterday I was listening to Jodi's testimony about how she and Travis "hooked up" the first time. I call shenanigans on her "discomfort" with the "incident" on that Saturday night at the Hughes' and the Starbucks meeting a few days later. While she may be psychopathic, Cluster B, Axis II or whatever, I don't think she's devoid of all normal emotion and likely has a lot of the same feelings other people do when they meet someone new that is charming, handsome, funny, etc. What I think is that she and Darryl were likely at a point in their relationship where things were kind of stale. Jodi had the opportunity to go to her first PPL event and met a very charming Travis Alexander. Of course it is speculation on my part, but I have a feeling there were less than 4" between their lips during that elevator ride. Jodi fell for him, HARD. This was enough for her to justify breaking up with Darryl. She and Travis continued to have phone conversations until their next planned meet up (at the Hughes'). Jodi testified that she anticipated kissing/action or whatever. Of course she did! The relationship with Travis at that point was in the beginning stages. You know, that point where one is smitten, giddy, day-dreamy or what have you. Regardless of what happened that night, I do not buy her testimony that she was "uncomfortable". Furthermore, if you feel uncomfortable with someone who you have continued to talk to after an "incident" (ala Nurmi) such as that, you don't meet up with them a few days later and sneak off to find a place to get it on again. This to me sounds like a typical beginning to an adult relationship. Well, maybe a little "fast" for some, but I believe she was a more than willing participant.
