I think when she said that about Lindsey, I really believe that she meant it positively. That a wonderful thing ABOUT him was how he loved her.

I think she meant it that way and that the message is not only that Lindsey loved her that much, but that she never loved him as much in return. I think that's the impression that she wants to leave, although I don't think it's a reflection of what she really feels.
And it's not that this behavior is one-sided on her part. Lindsey has done it too. I mean, he was the one saying that Stevie and Mick were in cahoots to get him to stand closer to her on stage and play up their star crossed love and -- true or not -- I think he would only say that to be petty. And I know I think he was doing a Rolling Stone interview in the eighties and Stevie called him on the phone and he said something to the writer about her longing for his approval. I mean, I think she DOES want his approval. She is the one who said that she hoped he was finally just a little bit proud of her when she did the TISL album. So, I don't think what he said was untrue, but I do think he said it to be mean.
So, he says things to needle her just the same way she does it to him. The only difference is, Lindsey's behavior in that regard, his propensity to take jabs at her through the media, has improved and become a lot less frequent over the years. Hers hasn't. I'm not saying he's not being just as childish with her in private as she is, but he's not doing it overtly in public as much as she is.
