[QUOTE="Sarah, post: 226012, member: 6"] Yes - Mandy was a self absorbed airhead who loved herself more than anyone. I liked Cally - at least she had some spunk unlike me me me Mandy - determined to destroy a marriage for her own needs. I find it staggering that anyone would think JR would be happy with her long term. She was basic and not enough of a challenge to him. He'd have been back to Sue Ellen in a heartbeat - a woman despite her flaws who loved him unconditionally, had intelligence and a mind of her own. Both male AND female fans for the most part loved them together and to be honest, sorry, Mandy modeling lingerie and some thinking she's JR's perfect match is rather telling. Even when JR dumped her she came back like a stinking boomerang. All about HER. Many Dallas actors have backed this up - Joan Van Ark saying most fans saw JR and SE as the 'King and Queen' and you can refer to Deborah Shelton's quote above. Even SHE could see her for what she was. There was no way JR could be happy with an insipid bore like Mandy long term. He said it himself in that he needed a challenge - and that challenge was Sue Ellen. He loved her. In Larry’s words ‘he is endlessly captivated by her’ (Sue Ellen). Anything else is a sexist fantasy regarding a woman who had to take her clothes off to get ahead. Has she meddled with Pam's marriage God help us! That sure would be a different conversation wouldn’t it?! Mandy went out of her way to break up a marriage and when she didn't succeed, she lied to and manipulated the wife to try to get her own way. JR didn't want her long term, and admitted Sue Ellen was the love of his life. Get over it. Seriously. And if you want to start the blame game, put it where it's deserved, at JR's door - which he also admits in the end 'I was never worthy of you' (to Sue Ellen). But maybe some think an airhead with no mind of her own like Mandy would do better with JR.. Unfortunately this isn't 1888. [/QUOTE]
