« You see what you want to see ». This so fits for some blogs. I just read, that the reason the lack of PDA at the GG between GA and PM was the fact, that they both have children and didn’t want to expose them. So my 1st thought was, « but expose to what? To the feelings that they have for each other? » but then 2nd thought « what about Davis »? They both were acting pretty feral to each other. What about Kimmel and many other things? They also have kids! It is so unlogical I want to scream!!!

Don’t scream and take a deep breath. It’s actual weirder to PDA with someone you’re not with that with someone you’re actually dating, even if it’s for some promotion, so I don’t see the logic either. If they didn’t PDA, they didn’t PDA that’s it. I don’t think they had some conversation before like “okay, I walk the red carpet, but not with you, we don’t touch each other, we don’t look at each other, but it’ll be clear enough that we are together”. Makes no sense to me. 

Call me stupid but I think GA still lurks tumblr and other social media and the sole reason she has dropped off with her posting is because of the shitstorm that has been going on since October. I see a connection that has nothing to do with who she may or may not be dating – DD, PM or whoever – and everything to do with how some of the fans are behaving. I would imagine she doesn’t want to add more fuel to the fire.

That’s not stupid, but I don’t think she lurks on Tumblr herself. She said she has her spies, and hopefully, they only report her the cool and fun side of what is said, which might be hard to find lately but still. And during time like this, I think they find an appropriate way to explain her what is going on and why, without necessarily having to show her the worst posts.
I’m sure, somehow, she knows what’s happening in the fandom, but does she care? That’s an another story.

I will never believe Gillian or any other celebrity live their life and make choices in order to punish their fandom. I don’t understand the tendency to believe that. Every two months, there’s something bad happening here, with more or less intensity, and every time, we think she stops tweeting because of us, or she stops posting here because of us, or she stops doing cons because of us, or doesn’t want to do more XF because we don’t deserve it. That’s a weird thing to think.
Gillian has 500 000 followers on Twitter. We, here are what? 300? 400 active bloggers? There’s maybe no more than 0,1% of her fandom being vocal about what’s going on in her private life. I don’t think that such a little percentage of people can have such a big impact on her life and the decisions she makes.
We live here, on tumblr, in our little bubble and tend to forget that there are people out there, in Gillian’s fandom, who had never heard or us, who are not interested in knowing what’s happening here, who don’t care about her private life, and I’m sure it’s the major part of her fandom.
We are the die hard fans. But in this business, it’s not us that you have to seduce. We are seduced no matter what she does anyway. So she’s not going to deprive her whole fandom because of a bunch of crazy die hards.

It’s difficult to have any hope when the tweeting behavior shift is so stark. Actually, if the tweeting had stopped like it has and there was no rumor, I guarantee you no one would be reading so much into it. It’s unfortunate timing that the dial was turned down at the same time as the rumor, the award shows, and his dumb show. Also, you are being naive. People are evil and have agendas. The best way to not let it spiral out of control is to publicly say that you will not comment further.

I know but the tweeting hasn’t stopped, though. Not really. She has answered his driver story with a sweet tbt very recently.
She has toned down her twitter, but not only about David. She has done it in general. Remember one of her tweet to a friend was removed and rewritten.
It can have something to do with the rumor, but I don’t think so. She has decided to use her social media in a more professional way than personal, for her projects and charity. That’s a choice. I regret it, but maybe at some point she’ll get bored and go back talking about the size of David’s dick. Who knows!

And don’t worry about me, anon. I will handle this situation no matter what 🙂

Why do you think GA stopped tweeting to DD? DD never really tweeted directly to her all that much, so his lack of tweets is not surprising. But almost every tbt from GA used to be about DD. Something happened in Oct/Nov, right around the time the rumor started. And now she seems uninterested in the X-Files while she attends GG for the crown and tweets about it even though she isn’t in it. She’s tweeted more about it than her voiceover work!

Same anon who sent you an ask about twitter a few minures ago. I just went through GA’s tumblr and she suddenly stops all references to DD after the latex tweet. This was right arpund the time the rumor started. Before, that it’s filled with jokes, flirty comments, tbts etc. Something definitely happened. They haven’t been spotted together since the last con and she never speaks about DD anymore. He only speaks about her when asked directly (like the bad driver story). I have lost all hope.

It’s true she has cooled down her flirtation on Twitter with David, but she didn’t stop mentioning him, though, even if it’s more lowkey. She has tweeted a sweet video over Christmas, and her tbt about being the best driver was with no doubt a reference to what David said at his last con. 

The use of her social media changed, but not only about David. She used to post tbt with her on a plastic doll for example, and I feel like she wouldn’t do it anymore. I miss her goofy self on social media, but I don’t think it has anything to do with her relationship with David. I think it’s more a professional choice in general. Maybe it won’t last, though.

As about David, he always talks about Gillian, especially when no one asks him to. At his last con, someone asked him what was his best memory with Mitch and he was disappointed the question wasn’t about Gillian. For the bad driver story, someone asked him the best prank he did on The X-Files, he probably had a large choice, but he picked this one. The girl in the panel didn’t specifically ask about Gillian. Take your hopes back! 🙂

« Maybe he is charming in other situations, when he’s with someone he loves, who knows. » You’re right indeed but, since we haven’t had the chance to watch him behaving in a charming way with Gillian Anderson, I’m not sure why anyone in this fanbase could consider him « charming ». If anything, we’ve seen quite the opposite, so it doesn’t seem to be a very rational thought. Talking about facts and irrationality, you know. Actually, you look like a highly rational person.

The thing is, I’m not really interested in knowing if he’s charming or not. He wasn’t with Gillian, but I don’t think he had to, if he is with when he he has a girlfriend, good for him, is he isn’t, that’s too bad, but I really don’t care. I’m not interesting in him.
Rationally, there was nothing in his behavior that showed he was with her. I don’t think he’s dating Gillian, so if it’s not in his nature, why would he even bother to try to be charming?

The guy is so « charming » that screams at her to call her like a shepherd, don’t wait for her when she’s posing for the journalists, rushes her to the car and, in general, has a pretty sour face. There’s hardly anyone with less « charm » than Peter Morgan. And I’m not talking about physical appearances. Charming is not an adjective to define him, not even for rose-coloured glasses people.

Maybe he is charming in other situations, when he’s with someone he loves, who knows. But because because they’re not dating, he didn’t have to and probably didn’t feel like behaving differently.
