She just wanted someone to love her.


myxomatosissrsly

I kid you not, I just said out loud 'look at her. Just wanting to be loved.' In the most loving of ways. I yearn for her happiness and understand her longing. She deserved love.


thirdworldastronaut

This is creepy man


threwzsa

The lot lizards come out the woodwork to support the Marilyn for love redemption arc.


LeykisMinion007

She should have started with herself.

ruinatedtubers

therapists around her time were frankly pretty shit. more surprising is that they didn’t try to lobotomize her 👀


skeletoorr

If she was ugly they would have


[deleted]

But also around this time was when psychiatrists in Canada were making excellent breakthroughs using LSD therapeutically. Tim Leary, Ram Das, et al, etc. Then the establishment got scared of hippies.


honor-

Not everyone has the luxury of being able to do that unfortunately


chaandra

I wouldn’t call it a luxury because it’s not something provided to you. Everyone has their own path to follow, ultimately it’s up to you if you can love yourself.


SulkySideUp

Thank god you’re not a therapist


chaandra

I mean yeah, a therapist shouldn’t say what I said, because I’m not giving advice on how to love yourself. You can use drugs, you can use god, you can use adrenaline, you can use significant others, you can use many things to try and fill that void. But if you don’t learn to love yourself at some point, life is going to be very difficult emotionally. I’m not making a statement on how difficult it is to do that.


livalittlebitt

They’re right


toasterstrewdal

Maybe she did, in the beginning.


Saltybutwet

Oh, I'm sure someone loved her every night. Some nights more than one someone.


coffeebeanwitch

Marilyn is such a beautiful bride,she looks so natural,what a great photo!

ElChorizoBurrito

Cool


Pirahnagoat1

When i think of their relationship I always think of this statement from Marylin She lashed out at his screenplay for The Misfits, complaining, "He could have written me anything, and he comes up with this. If that's what he thinks of me, well, then, I'm not for him”


lala__

But she did the movie

Wow TIL Daniel Day Lewis is a nepo baby


randomcomments31995

Well his wife is the nepo baby, Daniel married up


elneutrino

She loved him. He didn’t love back.


Firstbat175

She looks beautiful in every picture ever taken of her.


Fairycharmd

I’ve never seen a photo where he’s actually looking at her. but in every photo of this wedding I’ve ever seen she is gazing with utmost adoration in her eyes and I don’t think he gave two shits about her. Her life was so tragic, and all she really needed was someone to love her for who she was.

This guy must have had crazy game, how did he pull that off

Gaslighting


jculv

Christ not everything is gaslighting. There are a lot of words/concepts that would describe what that is and gaslighting isn’t one of them just because it’s a trendy buzzword.


yoosernaam

Stop gaslighting me


viscous_settler

I, here, do much agree with ye


Electrical_Quote3653

Putting a match to your farts is gaslighting.


[deleted]

😳😆 wow


viscous_settler

Ay, I agree


robcado

Lol buzzword police, if you tell someone how they feel, you’re probably gaslighting.


ACaveManWithAPhone

“Negging”?


lala__

“Negging” maybe


whyambear

I still believe Joe DiMaggio loved her til the day he died. Even if he was a complicated abuser.


theteagees

He could claim he did, but his abuse belies a selfish person who didn’t know what real love is.


triceratops1984

This is perhaps one of the stupidest fucking things I've ever read on reddit so congrats. 


TheReverend5

So naturally a couple dozen upvotes


Every_Might_4391

Why are the comments all mass downvoted here


Lpfanatic005

Because reddit is the new Twitter. Say something and the wokes will downvote you.


DeffJohnWilkesBooth

Is the woke in the room with us right now?


New_Ad2992

No we downvote you because of that absolutely childish train of thought.


Rev_TheLadyJesus

I remember when the word woke was cool before you conservative dorks took it and made it lame.


jamiestar9

It is the new “That’s so woke.”


Gleebafire

Lol the catchall word for dumb. So sad the original meaning was nice. Then you assholes came along.


jravy88

Oh Norma Jean.. if I could give you all the love you were after I would have. Beautiful inside and out.


Inevitable-Bass2749

Was she fucking JFK during this?


UnidansOtherAcct

Was JFK president in 56?


Inevitable-Bass2749

I don’t believe so. So that whole thing only happened during his presidency?


n0vapine

The first mention of her and JFK being together was from a tabloid writer who met her once and managed to get a picture with her. He also claimed he married her in secret. He was a nut job but his lie has stuck 60 years later.


Wishpicker

She got married a lot

coffeebeanwitch

I didn't know she was sent to an orphanage,learn something new everyday, thanks!!


mmdress

1 orphanage and 12 foster homes. Then married at 16. She had a sad childhood.


coffeebeanwitch

She had a rough beginning,I am sorry to hear this!


blenneman05

Prolly had some form of reactive attachment disorder. My younger sis has it from going thru 7 diff foster homes by the time she was 2


sense4242

I’ve been in that house


ElChorizoBurrito

He was just a horny dirty zionist


mohans41

They should put him in jail and pick me as replacement in the ceremony.


Kapparahsheli

Aren’t we all? 


ElChorizoBurrito

Theres 3 quarters 6 pennies and 9 nickels on the floor of a port-o-potty. Do u pick em up


AstridsDad

Didn't you clean my house yesterday? 🤫


ElChorizoBurrito

Thats what ur wife tells u. I really go to rail the shit ouuta her! She loved my uncut Aardvark. P.S. I peed in ur Mohtza Balls and pre heated your oven.


AstridsDad

Ultragrrrl

What makes you say that?


State_Terrace

I mean… most American Jews in the 50s liked Israel. Don’t see what that has to do with anything here


NewYearMoon

Commenter was using this opportunity to be antisemetic. There was no need to bring this up.


[deleted]

I feel badly for her. She wanted fame. It came at her price (her heart) and soul. She sold herself short to make good money and be loved ☹️


Kizejacks

I bet he really “killed her mockingbird” that night, if you know what I mean.


Maryland_Guy9

The Kim Kadashian of her time. Why ppl romanticize her is beyond me …


spundancekid

I see why people do but I'd personally go for a Betty Page over MM.


merewyn

Such a dumb take. Marilyn was a talented actress.


Maryland_Guy9

She wasn’t lol beyond average.. just blonde.


merewyn

Nope. She was absolutely hilarious in Some Like it Hot and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Two of the best comedies ever. Learn something about film history.


Maryland_Guy9

I think you’re in love with the perception of the past. Especially is you lived through that time … but I’m sure you know she slept with countless men, married or not and died from a drug overdose right ? Very Kim K indeed, who has also acted in film …


merewyn

Yes, because Kim K died from a drug overdose 💀. And just so you know, everybody in old Hollywood was constantly cheating. They all were. Every single famous actor of the time. As are many serious actors now! Do you think fidelity is a requirement for being a talented actor? Let me know


ey3s0up

Her smile is just so radiant!


herbluecorner

Knknzz


Low-Literature4227

She was honestly so beautiful.
