Ok I have to admit that I was a bit comfused about Angie’s answer but having read your comments I agree with what fiona said most.

Angie said that “When I was adopting Zahara and going through the follow up home study…”.She said “adopting” not “When I adopted Zahara..” So that shows that she was still in the process and she hadn’t brought Zahara home yet. And if the process of the adoption was 6-7 months long as fiona siad is accurate then Angie had started the process long before she and Brad became a couple.

QQQQ said that this might happened when Zahara was already home because before Angie hadn’t moved to Brad’s house yet. But I don’t think living in the same house was necessary for Brad to be present in the home study interview because after all Brad and Angie had decided to go together to Ethiopia to settle the adoption before Angie moved in Malibu in late July early - August. So I believe Brad was already involved with the adoption before Angie and he where living in the same house. So I don’t think that it happened in July. Having said that it seems that the follow up interview happened around the end of March or early April and I think that they where still trying to figure out what was going to be and how was going to be back then. And as the time went by I believe the end of all this thinking was in their trip to Kenya because after that they started to move really fast. They went to Ethiopia to finalize the adoption in June and again to pick up Zahara in July. Angie moved in Brad’s Malibu house. Angie got pregnant around late September. Brad started the process to adopt both of the kids in December and the rest is history….

My take on the adoption of Z thing, I think the process was quite long, around 6-7 months
_______________________________________________________________

The adoption of Zahara didn’t take that long because Angelina had already adopted before. I saw on CNN the woman who was the head of the adoption agency Brad and Angelina used in Boston talking about Madonna’s adoption. She was asked about Angelina and Brad. She said that Angelina’s adoption of Zahara happened quicker because all they had to do was update her file.

They adopted Zahara through a Catholic Charities adoption agency in Massachusetts.

Cliniqua - you are probably right. Angie said “I mean , on occassion we are obviously capable of being very adult with each other.” Re-looking at that sounds like they could have been intimate.

^^

I don’t think it means that at all.

“He’s somebody I admire based on the way he lives his life. And that’s why I’m with him. He’ll probably read that and laugh. We still have this funny thing: we were so used to not being together that when i was adopting Zahara and going through the follow-up home study, the woman said, ‘How long have you been together? And can you explain your relationship? And she’s obviously not a reporter. She’s just a woman doing her job. But we both got hysterical. We couldnt answer the questions. We were like two idiots. ‘What do you mean? Were not… We’ve never had a …’ We’re like two great friends, and if we talk seriously about the relationship, It just seems odd. I mean , on occassion we are obviously capable of being very adult with each other.”

She’s giving an example of his character. Of their relationship “at that time.” That there was no impropriety. It was not physical at that point.

She’s clearly telling of a situation when they didn’t want things misconstrued as being more than two people who were “great friends.”

The last part? She’s speaking in terms NOW. Of how their friendship has always been paramount (just as I have always suspected) but it’s obvious (SHILOH) they added intimacy to the realtionship “eventually.”

The friendship is first and has always been/will be.

I’m not sure if that’ll be understood. I get it in my head but I can’t seem to explain it well. I just know to me at least, Angelina isn’t talking about, or telling us that they were intimate at that time. She’s not saying that at all and that’s not my opinion, that’s fact.

Just watched Angie and Matt Damon with Diane Sawyer at GMA and the best question was: What’s the difference between kissing Matt and Brad?
Angie’s answer: One is a friend and one is my LOVE.. oh so sweet!

Great AJ interview on GMA. AJ was very honest and glowing. I like the part where she does not see borders when adopting. They also support programs in America that help children. She also stated that BP was giving his views on marriage in America when talking about gay marriage but that does not mean that they would or could not marry(paraphasing here- correct me if I am wrong). She seems totally devoted to BP and the children. AJ is an honest, forthright woman. She got involved with BP with honesty, care and deep respect and I think their relationship is a product of that. Best wishes to BAMZS.

love the interview of AJ…..matt.morning all!
