didn't he get rich long before she contacted him? He got all the endorsements from playing ping pong, which gave him some money, and then he had the shrimping boat with the hurricane, when he became really rich. She didnt contact him until after the running-across-the-country (wellt here was contact, but it was after that when she introduced him to lil forrest). When she slept with him and got pregnant, he was rich, and she still jumped ship, so to speak.
I don't think her issues (abuse, and any mental illness she may have had) are supposed to excuse her behavior and make you think "well then everything she did was okay." But they are supposed to make you think "yeah I kind of see where she is coming from." I have a lot of sympathy for my sister, who has borderline personality disorder. I see why she does a lot of what she does, and I understand a lot of her behavior. But I don't forgive her for all of it or want contact with her.
Me too. Especially when he whupped that mans ass at the Black Panther Party. I am STILL embarrassed for poor Jenny when she was telling the Panthers that Forest was cool and he didn't need to be pat down. I hate when Bubba dies and love when Bubbas Mom gets rich.
