You have to try and understand that his heart was broken. Lindsey is a very emotional guy, and does not hide his feelings. That's one of the reasons I like him. Good or bad you always know where you stand with Lindsey. Yes, he was a jerk to Stevie on and off stage, because he was angry at her, for breaking up with him. If you've ever had someone you love break up with you, you know how painful that is and there's a lot of anger directed towards the person that hurt you.
I think Lindsey did the best he could under the circumstances (actually I think they both did), but (IMO) that's were the division in the fan's really started. Did you feel sorry for Stevie that she had to put up with such a jerk and see that Lindsey was mean and picking on her, or did you understand that Lindsey's heart was broken and he was lashing out at the woman that broke his heart and feel sorry for Lindsey because he obviously loved her so much?
I think Stevie's a very sweet, caring, extremely generous and loving person. As I've said before I love Stevie too. She's a very strong woman and I'm pretty sure she can take care of herself, when it comes to Lindsey. She's also very good a hiding her feelings in public, and Lindsey's not.
I've always thought Stevie kind of ruled Lindsey instead of the opposite. Like she behaved like a man might have in dealing or not dealing with their relationship issues.
However, like I said before, does it really matter anymore? If the two of them are true to their word, they are done fighting with each other and are now good friends, so I don't think you will have to go to another show and watch him shoot nasty looks at her, or scream lyrics of a song to her anymore, telling her how he can't stand her or how he won't miss her when she's gone.
