I think it's time that the world forgives Brad Pitt for the demise of his marriage to Jennifer Aniston. I still remember that day in 2005 when the news broke and how sad I was. (Give me a break, I was at home with one baby to care for and had a lot of time on my hands!)
Anyhow, at the time I totally blamed Brad because it was obvious that he'd fallen victim to the wiles of she-devil Angelina Jolie.
But now.... well... here's what I realized while I was doing my hair the other day:
In the 5 years since the failure of the Pitt-Aniston household, what has happened relationship-wise to the two of them?
Brad Pitt - he's been in a committed - albeit disturbing - relationship and has become a father.
Jennifer Aniston - she's dated one he-skank after another and had about zero commitment to anyone.
Now - as things have shaken out - it kind of looks like Brad wasn't the problem. Maybe Jen (oh yes, the media says I can call her that) was the weak link. Brad wanted a home and Jen wanted freedom to slink around town doing who knows what.
So, Brad, I apologize for my judgment and I forgive you for simply trying to find a happier situation where you could have a family and a nice - albiet disturbing- life.And, just for the record, this has NOTHING to do with the fact that you've repeatedly been named Sexiest Man of the Year. I'm just here for you, regardless!

You're oh so very wise. I've always blamed it on Brad and Angelina as well. I will re-think that now.
Thanks for putting the more important things in life in perspective.
Interesting take. I did not think of it like that. I am glad to know that I am not the only one who has spent time wondering why, as I thought, a perfect couple would split. I like this take. Just for the record I have always liked Angelina. Maybe it's because she is odd and well we all like to stare at things that baffle us.
