Sally Field & Burt Reynolds’ Devastating Love Story | Rumour Juice

[@RumourJuice]

Would you have forgiven Burt Reynolds' behavior?

[@angelaholmes8888]

Oh God no I definitely wouldn't had forgiven him

[@sampuatisamuel9785]

Yep

[@lbl9066]

When u forgive someone, it frees you.. so yes I probably would.

[@evonnechi7029]

Yes. Why? Because all superstar men are just like Burt. And all men, in general, are willing to play the field even after they get married, as long as opportunities (sexy ladies) keep making themselves available and the men can still perform romantically for them. What matters is whether or not we can hold onto our men and keep them coming back home to us. Don't try to change the behavior of men that they have had since our creation. Instead, work within the parameters of their male behavior to keep that ring on their finger for as long as we can remain happy together. How long can a man and woman be together? Well, depending on how much in love they are, how kinky and sexual the relationship is, and how good their communication is, they could have 5, 10, maybe 15 years together or more on average. If sex is less important to them, the relationship might last a good deal longer. If the man and woman have very different levels of sexual desires, then that will create severe problems in the relationship and will significantly reduce the time together where they can be happy. What happens is that couples, no matter how beautiful and sexy they might be, eventually get tired of each other and want to find somebody new. In light of this reality, it would be better for couples to NOT get married. Marriage allows the state (government) to become a party to the marriage contract between the man and the woman. This is a very bad idea. And now, gay couples get to be as miserable as everyone else. LOL! Just don't get married.

No, he sounds like a classic narcissistic that is pining for an ex that he didn’t deserve. No accountability. She did the right thing.

I worked at the airport in Miami when Burt Reynolds was filming the movie Semi-Tough in the 1970s. He was the only actor in the film to interact with the airport employees. In between filming scenes, he would go around chatting, and signing autographs, he was very friendly. I remember him as a down-to-earth, sweet, funny man. I also read Sally Field's memoir and have been a huge fan since I was a little girl watching her in the Flying Nun. People are complicated...

That's awesome that you read her memoir! Our childhood makes a huge impact on who we become as adults, and unfortunately, if some people aren't able to process the negativity or trauma of their past, it does end up affecting their future, and who they chose to have as a partner.

I don't think Burt Reynolds knows the difference in a good relationship. Sally Fields was independent while Burt Reynolds had demons he was fighting and wanted Sally to take care of him? What kind of relationship was that? Take care of a man that didn't want to take care of himself? That's not what a relationship is about it is a two-way street.

[@lindahandley5267]

I can see why they fell for each other. They were both adorable, and it is SO sad that it didn't work out the best way. With Sally's abuse as a child, it's a wonder she was as normal as she was. I'm sorry that Burt couldn't truly appreciate what he had in her. Oh well, such is life.😢

That was Sally's charm. She was indeed beautiful but in a 'plain' way, and that's how her incredible charisma and charm was able to shine. I truly think actresses like Margot Robbie are overrated in that yes they can act decently but it's their looks that light up a screen. That fades and that's why many actresses get depressed and caught up in chopping up their faces and bodies to reclaim a youth that's impossible to regain. And yet, when you watch Meryl or Sally, even in their later years they still shine so bright, command your attention and hold it.

[@mangoanne2023]

Correct. Wish you could hear me clapping for you.

It's possible to have dazzling beauty and dazzling acting chops, which Meryl Streep has always had. She was never the girl next door in the looks department.

I fully understand what she was saying and where she was. Some people who are so charismatic get caught up in their stardom. I think he knew what was up and the mistakes he made. But he wasn't willing to do what was necessary to make the relationship work. He had issues he didn't deal with. No doubt she was the love of his life, the one who got away. And that was his own fault, sadly. If he could have gotten past himself man they would have been fantastic. So sad.

I’m a little confused. She said she didn’t want him to read the parts where she wrote negatively about him, and their time together, and was glad that he couldn’t read her book, but she had no idea he would pass when he did, so that means she wrote it knowing he would probably read all of those things. ????

Sally did her own thing and Burt hung out with the guys always holding a beer. I recall seeing some of the cast members there that would go on to make The Cannonball Run as well. I guess it was going into production right after. But you could see in the film that their relationship was over by this point.

Sally is a very under appreciated actress. Her childhood trauma was unaddressed and definitely affected her choices in men. Burt too was a underrated actor too often exploited as a good ole boy and hound dog. Burt lived most of his life labored under a desire for his dad to acknowledge his adulthood Neither of them had the emotional balance to make a real non toxic relationship. That said Sally wanted to have a movie star and Burt was hot and interested. I do not believe Sally loved Burt he was a trophy and was able to take her into the A list world she wanted. It was sad for both but my gut is that Burt was that Burt was much more wounded.

Once all the lust and thrust has gone out of a relationship you need something else to fill the void. You need a mental connection besides a physical one and if you don't have that, then you have nothing!!. People are turned on by a partners mind and charisma, it's not all about how attractive the person is physically. That's just superficial!!! - The opinion of a 67 year old male who has sewn a few wild oats over the years, namely me. 🙂
