something so strong shouldn't make me this weak

Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock complete each other. He protects her, supports her; she brings out his lighter side, cares for him when he needs her most. They may not be romantically connected, but their bond is just as deep. Why are they not together? I'm not sure they need to be; their relationship as it stands right now is perfect.

I know. I've seen Jesse and Sandra together, and it just isn't the same. So you wonder how she could pass up what she has with Keanu for Jesse. But I'm not her, so I don't know.

I hate that people think it's stupid. Just because you're married, doesn't mean you can't bond with other people, that you're done making connections with others. If it was so easy to fake, every couple in every movie would seem to belong together. Even Jen/Vince can't pull it off, and they ARE together.

I think people think they're disrespecting her marriage or something if they even think that. But there they are, pretty much encouraging talk, so I don't see the big deal. It's there, and not talking about it doesn't make it NOT there. lol Chemistry like that is an extremely rare, very tricky thing, and there's no faking it. Like you said, if there was, everyone in the world could look like they belong together and they don't.

I don't think most people stop making connections after they're married (and Sandra's with Keanu far pre-dates her marriage), but I think a lot of people think they're a danger to the marriage if they're with a member of the opposite sex. Which can be true, but it all depends on how much control you retain in the situation and what you do or don't do about it. I refuse to believe that they're not in love with each other on some (if not all) level(s), but for some reason they never went through with that (that anyone knows of), and they may never. Which brings us to your next point...

Since Sandra got married, I wonder if Keanu worried that he'd lose her to Jesse. Is that even possible? It seems more likely that the reverse would occur.

I imagine when friends of the opposite sex see each other get married, they wonder what will happen. Will the new husband/wife accept the relationship or want to see it end? Obviously, Jesse James must be more understanding than he looks to be so supposedly comfortable with his wife hanging out with Keanu fricking Reeves. Because from what I understand, not many women come out of an experience with him not in love. LOL I think since they've had such an intense re-connecting experience this year, that yes, Jesse would be in more danger of losing her if it came to that.

However, while I definitely prefer her with Keanu, I wish no harm on her marriage. I'm just left to wonder why they didn't make different choices at least ten years ago. It could've been anything.

For now, I just wish they would announce tomorrow that they're doing another movie together! They've done action and drama, now I want to see a good romantic comedy. That's really the only thing Keanu's never done, a lead in a romantic comedy. And I know playing off of her, he would be hilarious, because they're hilarious together.

I just want to say one thing - I would be very scared if they did a romantic comedy. Scared as in worried that it would completely tank. I can see Keanu doing dark comedies, with sarcasm, and maybe it's because of his serious nature and the fact that he hasn't done a comedy, but I don't know if he could pull it off. I think it would take serious coaching on Sandra's part.

p.s. Have you ever heard Keanu laugh in a movie? It's frickin' hilarious because he has such a loud, staccato laugh that it sounds almost fake.

Well, see that's why I have faith in them doing one together. He's so completely natural around Sandra. In real life or the movies, he loosens up, he lightens up. He's a whole new man when she's around. So that's why I think, playing off of her, he could do it. Besides, it absolutely couldn't be any worse than him doing Shakespeare. I love the guy, and I know he'll try anything once, but maybe he shouldn't have tried that.

I have heard him laugh. Not enough, but I've heard him. It's pretty funny.

I agree with all of you . Wow they're freakin adorable. I have to say that when you see them together you just have to remind yourself constantly that she's a married woman. I love their connection with each other and to honest I think I'm totally "addicted" to them. I love seeing them together.

I've also watched tons of interviews together and I'm so fascinated at the body language that I'm able to see. Especially from Sandra. Keanu is a very private person so it's he's a bit harder to read.

I read in an old article that during the filming of Speed that Tate Donovan (Sandra's bf ) broke up with her because he got so jealous of her relationship with Keanu during the filming. Here's her quote about it: " "The only thing I ever did with Keanu was kiss him and that was in front of the entire camera crew, but Tate was convinced there was something between us." Also: "I just couldn't convince him otherwise." So I guess Keanu's a little careful now.

It's hard to explain but there is something there. I see it and I feel it :)

Keanu needs to be careful. He looks at her like he could pounce any second. ;) Not that I mind, I rather enjoy it.

I didn't know that Tate Donovan broke up with her over Speed. I had no idea. But that's very interesting. Very, very interesting. They might not have done anything, but he's not far off about there being something there, that's for sure.

I'm addicted to them, too. LOL It seems a lot of people are these days.
