Aside from the fact that she's referring to herself in third person, it reads like the back cover of a teen romance novel.

I also think she's hitting closer to home than usual. She's alluded to it before, but here she just came out with it. When she said in the Don't Stop doc that it was really hard on Lindsey during TITN, I got the impression she was talking about more than just her missing the recording sessions. And, I've always thought there was more to that fight at Christine's anyway - those are not the kind of arguments you have with someone you haven't been involved with for 10 years. Also, Lindsey being worried in '87 - he had to have been heartsick by the time 1990 rolled around. Debbie met him around then and he talked to her about Stevie and how worried he was about her -because she didn't even recognize his family at the shows. So, I don't think Stevie was being as overly dramatic as she usually tends to be.
