I'm thinking of those people who seem to go from one car-crash "relationship" to another, where they know what they're
walking into but can't seem to stop themselves.
I understand that if you find you've invested a lot of time and emotional energy into a relationship before you find they're an arse, it can be difficult to
walk away.
It seems to me that Jenn would be in the first category
if she were to "forgive" - or try to change, but with little hope of success - a person she saw was an arse on first meeting them. I really can't see that admiring someone on the screen or in magazines - where they are inevitably playing a part, even if it's a version of themselves - is the same as building a true relationship (before the 'partner' reveals their true selves).
