My one remaining question


So the young happy couple in live and one day he just disappeared.
So did he tell her about going on a mission and she was to crazy to listen?
They were engaged and he left without a word. Did he ever explain that to anyone? I know he has refused interview but no reporter uncovered his real reason for leaving her without even a 'dear John letter'? I hate Mormons and all but one thing I can't fault them on is that they are crazy nice. I feel like he would have told her sorry babe it's over.

If you were dating that girl, would you tell her where you planned to sneak off to?

Young "happy" couple? He wasn't strong enough to say "Sorry babe, it's over." She's too crazy too just let the guy she thinks is her property to just pick up and leave. That's why she tracked him down and kidnapped him.

If you reverse the roles and it was a man that tracked down a woman that left him and tied him to a bed, had repeated sex with him until she started complying with every demand he made maybe you'd rethink the concept of young happy couple.

Kirk wants to live his life away from this woman. It's possible that he doesn't want to take part in any interviews becasue he doesn't want to risk the chance of re-living this part of his life or being tracked down again. Crazy has no expiration date.

Five possibilities.

1. She's exaggerating, and he did say goodbye (but not where he was going).
2. She's exaggerating the nature of their relationship.
3. Kurt's mother wanted him to have nothing to do with her, and so told him to leave without a word.
4. Kurt's church told him he couldn't tell her.
5. Kurt didn't want anything to do with her (at least intellectually).

Unfortunately Kurt wouldn't agree to an interview so we have no way of knowing.

There's no way to know for sure without his side, but I would guess she made up the bulk of their "relationship". I mean he might have dated her and possibly had sex, but I doubt it was anything serious and certainly not an engagement.

I mean, c'mon she saves money to go find the love of her life by prostituting herself. That's all you really need to know to see the inconsistencies in her persona. What girl thinks prostituting herself is an acceptable way to find a way back to the man she wants to marry?

There is probably a grain of truth in her statements, but they are obviously so exaggerated to the point that you can't believe anything coming out of her mouth.

She's just lucky she's a woman, and the world tends to brush off crazy female stalkers. Had the roles been reversed he would probably still be locked up. It's just the typical double standard when it comes to sex crimes. I know a guy who was stalked by a female, and no one took him seriously until she broke his window, broke into his apartment, and tried to take his clothes off while he was sleeping. All she had to do was pay for a new window. Now imagine this in reverse. He would have been charged with breaking and entering and attempted rape.

There is almost no way that these two were in a serious relationship and she didn't know that he had prepared and submitted his mission papers.
He would need a medical and dental check before lodging his paperwork and would likely have been meeting with his Bishop for awhile. Even after submitting his paperwork it would take awhile for his call to come through, and then a little while longer before he left. He would have started his mission in the Provo MTC - just down the road from where they were.
This is not something that just happens overnight.
If he'd wanted her to know, he had plenty of opportunity to tell her.

Reverse the genders and that is basically the plot summary to the 80's comedy "Loverboy".

You're assuming she is sane and truthful.

As Judge Judy says, "If it doesn't make sense, it's a lie".

reply

Doesn't matter if they were a "happy couple" (her version). They had a relationship, he dumped her and split as he had ever right to do. Happens every day. They weren't married. They had no children. She wasn't pregnant. He owed her nothing. Then she stalked him. As the insane, obsessive person she obviously is. She stalked him. Pure and simple. Although I do believe what she says about Mormomism (the magic underwear, king of your own planet, blah blah - look it up)
