You know, everyone here is a little crazy. EVERYONE. Try to tell me you are not, ye who have a gazillion more photos of Adam saved than you do your own family, or ye who have clicked to enlarge in order to study seams and pours and roots and fabrics. Ye who have lost sleep to watch blurry streams instead of waiting for the clearer youtubes hours later. Who here doesn't know far more than resonable about Adam's personal life, perhaps following his family, chronicaling his childhood photos, reading his boyfriend's blog hoping to see another photo with a glimps of Adam's china or dining chair, and hoping above all to catch them in a kiss? Maybe we each have our own way of being crazy but if you are reading these pages everyday you probably have A LOT invested in this man.
What I don't understand is how centering a good part of your life around him is considered OK but concern about him, and what is truly important to him, is not. Yesterday people expressing simple, respectful concern for his heart rather than his wardrobe were told not to. Today people who expressed concern are being told not to go down with the ship. Really? Because I was worried about him being hurt I am too invested? But it's not too invested to be looking up his possible flight times?
Admission: I care about Adam Lambert as more than an artist. His music takes me places, but I've become equally enthralled with him as a person. I don't care much about his fashion, but I do care about his heart. Doesn't mean I am crying in my pillow for him, doesn't mean I can be lumped with Neil's tweeter and doesn't mean I am angsting and scaring away members or giving PH fodder. Just means i'd like to be able to say I am worried about him without being presumed over the top or to be given advice on taking a step back from you (not so invested?) people.

The discussion of A & S's relationship status the past several days, and my concern about it, reminded me of an article I read with a unique philosophy: how to show your love by not caring as much. I googled to find the article and reread it for my own growth and peace of mind. If you are interested, here's the link.Thank you for posting the link to this article. It has some great insights for relationships with friends and loved ones. Much appreciated! And Lynne, I loved your post from last night. So full of wisdom! Heartfelt thanks.

To add (for some reason I've recently lost the ability to edit) :
I speak with love and respect for those "people" mentioned above. Some of my favorites in fact. I am just not afraid of honesty and speaking my mind, and these days my RL rollarcoaster might add a bit of rawness.
Hugs, and happy valentines day everyone!
