Based on her facebook page, she may have been playing the field, who knows, hopefully that will become known. She may have been indeed attracted to an older, “complex” man which Cho would have been to her. Plus he could buy alcohol without a fake ID. We don’t know if he, her or the “new” BF were or were not part of the campus radical culture. Love triangle? As an English major (BTW - what was HER major?) exposed to tons of Ward Churchillesque sedition. No doubt at Va Tech there are Islamist and Islamist oriented groups. What an evil brew. Etc, etc, etc.
You said — “Plus he could buy alcohol without a fake ID. We don’t know if he, her or the “new” BF were or were not part of the campus radical culture.”
Yep, I’ve known girls that will “play you along” for certain things you can do (whatever that may be). And they’ll be playing the field while they’re at it.
In this case, I can’t say that this girl was like that. It’s obvious that they had *some kind* of relationship, even if it was just a few dates or whatever. But, in general, I can say that a lot of girls are like that, playing one person along while going out with another. That especially happens in college, for sure. That’s a time for “fun and games” (plus whatever education one gets there).
So, in this instance, I’m not saying that this girl was like that. It’s just not out of the realm of possibilties.
