OMG Rainbow! I remember you from back in those days. I too used to be on the anti-Danneel bandwagon. It happened after I first became a Supernatural fan and, consequently, a huge Jensen fan. Soon after, I learned about him dating Danneel and read the negative stories about her. After viewing a video of her making an unflattering comment about her ex, I didn't think too highly of her. I didn't go nearly as far as many of the others on the board with very hateful comments but I did let it be known I didn't like her.
In early 2013, I separated from my husband and begin divorce proceedings. I was totally miserable in that marriage and suffered from depression -- severe depression. Once I separated from my (ex)husband, my attitude became more positive regarding my future. I became hopeful and looked forward to beginning a new life and finding the guy who would make me feel the way I knew I should feel by having a healthy, loving relationship. I realized that I had been so miserable and used the "Jensen-Danneel hate her or love her" debate as an outlet. I mean seeing Danneel with this gorgeous guy who I fantasized about as a means of escape -- I was bitter. I see that now.
When I saw the photos of Danneel with their baby girl, I just felt compelled to apologize to her. I did so on her Twitter site although I'm not certain that she saw it. I told her that I was ashamed about my behavior and wished her and her family all the best. You came to my mind at that time because I remember how vocal you were about your dislike for her. Wow! It's great to be free from such venom and that mindset; and I'm happy to see you've grown too. Kudos Rainbow!
