She was probably raped (more than once). If that is the case it will be definatley hard for her to be intimate with her husband. He must be patient if he wants things to work. Then again, maybe he cheated on her during her captivity. If that is the case, I'm sure her sense of betrayal is profound. Who knows......

Of course, let's tell all the world about your private feelings!

I watched her being interviewed by Larry King last night...she did say *things* happened in the jungle and' what happened in the jungle, stays in the jungle'.

At least she's smart enough not to tell every little detail for all the world to analyze.

I don't feel for someone who goes and talk to the media about his private life. Surely Ingrid knows what she is doing. This man seems unclassy, and low spirited.

My hunch is the same as zuuka's concerning rape. While I agree with Jen and Sarindra about this man being indiscreet about his feelings, I do think the comments are rather harsh and biased considering he had been waiting for her for over six years. I guess the man's feelings are not very important that no one would consider putting themselves in his shoes. Afterall, he wasn't suffering in the jungle, and merely waiting in comfort outside.

I dunno, it all sounds like the same old unreasoning and tired male-bashing to me.

But her daughter; I would bang her uncontrollably until she would shiffer in ecstacy. OVER AND OVER AGAIN in Paris in the Eifel tower.

Well, if he waited for such a long time for her and she is cold and wants to break up, she doesn't deserve any respect...

I've seen a 3 minute video taken in the jungle, where Ingrid is raped and fondled savagely by her captors. The video was taken by one of the FARC militia man and I ve no idea how it was made public.

I believe Mrs Betancourt will be sacrred for life about the multiple rape events she was subject during her captivity.

In order to preserve Ingrid's privacy (or whatever is left of it) I opted to delete the video from my archives ... God bless Ingrid Betancourt ...
