That is usually the case, I think Written by Nancy Ann (4/14/2010 9:10 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Who's to say..., penned by Cheryl

Some kind of mutual 'tangle' and 'tango' goes on back and forth with couples, and it doesn't necessarily match what happened at the onset of the relationship. We have no way of knowing when or for how long any of 'this has been going on' with the Bennets. (Maybe something happened 10 years ago, out of our knowledge? Who knows? If it's immaterial to the present story, JA just showed us who they are now.) All we know is the time period we visit and are shown or told about. We can assume there is some back story---there always is! As to what it is, however, I think often our own 'prejudices' do enter in!! I know in my case they do! I think the Bennets are a couple who really do know how to push each other's buttons mutually...it isn't one way! Maybe they both enjoy it in some perverted way! They probably deserve each other and also each used the other in some way originally! So it goes!
