Rob admits to reading everything that’s being printed, calling it ‘a weird kind of addiction.’ Is that good news for Kristen?
Robert Pattinson‘s breakup from Kristen Stewart, following her admitted affair with married director Rupert Sanders, has made countless headlines — and Rob has seen ‘em all! “Yeah, I read it,” Rob says in a newly released interview with The Columbus Dispatch. “It’s my life. You sort of want to read it. You feel like you need to read it.”
And that’s where Rob’s metaphor starts getting colorful.
“It’s one of those things where you keep picking a scab,” he says. “You know you shouldn’t be doing it, but it’s a weird kind of addiction. You desperately want to stop.”
Pictures of Kristen kissing Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert went public in late July, after which Rob briefly went into hiding. He reportedly took refuge from the public eye at former co-star Reese Witherspoon‘s California ranch, then resurfaced several weeks later for a series of high-profile appearances — including The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and Good Morning America — to promote his new movie Cosmopolis.
And it sounds like, all the while, Rob has been keeping up with himself in the press! Do you think Rob reading about Kristen is a sign he wants to get back together with her, or is it just giving him more reasons to stay away?

Where’s the proof Rob in London haven’t seen any photos ,perhaps he has made a decision Nd wants to tell his family first hand and not via the media .Then again if still in LA no photos of him there either or of Kristen all very strange perhaps they are both holed up somewhere else trying to sort out this unhappy situation,if not sorted soon it will end badly for both of them as people’s feelings have now become so extreme as to which side of the fence they are on.Which ever way this turns lets hope they can both be happy and not regret which ever way they decide.It would be nice to think they can do this side by side as they will need one another more than ever to get through this hysteria just hope they can lose paparazzi media and dare I say it fans just to give them a break and give them self time whether together or not.

oh ppl.u are so absurde.a relationship is all about trust! if there are no trust there is no love life.i think kristen haves no trust in him and vice versa coz i cant see other point for what happend.robert is not an angel k,stop idolizing him.kristen also was too arogant in whole time and she wasnt honest.playing with the fire u may get hurt yourself and that what happend to them.
kristen parents divorce thing have nothing to do with these all.

Robert was just in love with love, in the idea of love … when someone loves someone, then he fights for love … no love, no fights for love … simply ….
And Kristen … she’s made a mistake, the question is whether she made a mistake in regard to Love, or in relation to the contract

CAN ANYONE TELL ME IF THIS STORY IS TRUE. “You missed the big excitment on Gossip Cop message board – “an insider posted and said she would only be there briefly to announce so get your tissues out as they were going to formally announce they had split and are asking for respect and privacy in this difficult time. Also there will be no promos together. This is suppose to be announced before 10th Sept.So does this mean it will be announced while she is doing OTR Promos, how cruel if this is true. Also she has said Rob has had someone else for a while now. She is a pretty brunette from the UK. Kristen has no-one else at this time. Guess we will see if that is true. Than all of her posts disappeared in 3 seconds.”
Why would Kristen (if this is supposedly who posted this story) post this. Wouldn’t she be to upset and devastated to do so. Or did someone post this as a joke and removed it 3 seconds later. If they have officially split wouldn’t it be the right thing to do and come out and tell everyone. So that the world would know. It would be so sad if they have split. So much for the sources saying that Rob still loves her and is constantly thinking about her. If Rob has had someone else for a while now, why would he care and be so devastated, humiliated, heart broken if he had someone else. Also why would he have done all the things they have said that he done – Like drunk dial Kristen, talk to her for over an hour etc.Why would he cave in to her and agree to meet her. How long is a while?. When he found out that Kristen cheated on him why did he not come out and say it was over then and tell Kristen that he’s had someone else for a while than and to leave him alone, so she wouldn’t have been begging him to take her back, sending him texts and calling him constantly. Why call her and worry about how she was doing. Why would he care if there where T-Shirts calling her a trampire if he had someone else. Does this not mean he still cares about her. It’s been nearly 6 weeks so why say it now and not after it happened. I don’t know what to believe. Someone on this site here said that Rob was meeting with Kristen today at 1pm and that they are together. Was that together just talking or back together for real. Is this why he is going considering going back to the UK because he has had someone for while. Will he take Bear back with him or will he leave Bear with Kristen. So was he cheating on Kristen before this scandal with this someone else. PLEASE CAN SOMEONE ENLIGHTEN ME. I have looked on the GC website and can find nothing at all. Also I have not seen any GC story about this either.
If it was on for only three seconds how did you manage to get it.This is like the faked e-mails account.We might get something when she appears at TIFF.If she shows up.

Actually the person who posted the above story said was 3 seconds. I just typed what the story said. So I don’t know either. I was just curious. But I thought it might be fake because who ever originally posted the story from the Gossipcop message board said it was gone in 3 seconds. So that is why I asked if it was just a joke by somebody.
have you made enquires with CG management?They would know about every single post posted.
I can’t find anything either,sounds like a hoax.Under which article was it?
aurora
Posted at 9:48 AM on September 2, 2012
The postings weren’t gone in 3 seconds, that was an exaggeration. They were up maybe five minutes or so. The poster’s name was Powder Donut if that helps. They made it sound like they were an insider source that had just heard the fall out from the negotiations of a face to face. The chances are it was another prankster poster that tries to act like a best friend.

more lies to upset the public
Posted at 1:30 PM on September 2, 2012
It’s not true, just someone throwing more s**t into the storm. I don’t think Stewart and Sanders would have caused all this trouble for themselves and the studios. Kristen would not have apologized, and they would not be sneaking around. KS would have said RP and herself were separated already. That would have been better than the current mess.
so sad they are split
Posted at 10:38 PM on September 3, 2012
Yes, Rob moved back to London. No, he does not have an English girlfriend already. RP and KS were just in Cannes film festival in May 2012, very lovey dovey. It was not fake, they were on a balcony and did not know pictures were being taken.
love Kristen
Posted at 3:52 AM on September 2, 2012

hi !!
please guys Rob shd not b the one on the fence …he is the victim not the cause.
the way Rob used to look at her ….., when he looked at her it seemed the whole world ceased to excist for him becoz that is how he used to feel and to hv all that love thrown back in your face publically ….one can only imagine how he felt .
it is more than just about Kristen ….it is about if Rob takes Kristen back then everybody can again start living their dream romance thru them ….but this is real life ….it does not happen like that …i think we shd just let Rob b and not put him on the fence for not taking her back .The feeling has to of the same intensity for both sides for the relashioship to survive .
he is human he hurts he cannot switch off his brain and not think about what happened in just a space of a month and a half. He must hv been shaken to the core that she cud actually do it ….he must b feeling disbelief ,betrayal , anger , mistrust in his ability to judge people all at the same time .
it is very cruel to blame him for the mess of this relatioship .
it all is fake,robsten unbroken 4ever
Posted at 2:44 AM on September 2, 2012
when their relation was true,i m just become bore of that drama of that 5 years of robsten.they r such ravish.i know they was started acting to show up them as a real life couple 4m the 1st twilight movie,and they r yet acting lik a real life couple,bt now twilight is coming to end,so their contract date come4 over.after breaking dawn we will see that rob and kris will be complete separate from each other,it will be very dramatically.i knew that they never were a real life true couple,just acting lik a true couple for their movies more publicity.bt i will pray to GOD THAT @pls god keep together robsten 4ever for us,pls make a real feeling in their heart for each other,that why they will stay together for 4ever for eachother true love and life.pls make them strong couple in real life 4ever.make their heart so close for each other 4ever.any 1 cant reach between robsten heart except their own heart 4ever.make robsten true 4ever for their each other.pls my GOD make my that dream must true,pls pls pls GOD

Ok This is now out of hand. PLEASE LEAVE ROB AND KRISTEN ALONE. If you really love someone how can you throw away what you have. Rob has admitted himself that he was already in love with Kristen when he saw her in “Into the Wild” – He went to LA so he could do the audition for Edward Cullen just to work with Kristen. If he felt this way how could he just throw it away for nothing. I think Rob and Kristen need some privacy and time alone to work out their problems. Do you really think that your opinion matters to Rob, I don’t think so. This is his decision. He is the only one that can make it. Not the fans, family, friends or the public. COME ON PEOPLE – GET A LIFE. It has been nearly 6 weeks now and everyone still has an opinion. What ever decision Rob makes everyone needs to respect that and not critise it. When are you people going to get that through your thick skulls. Yes Rob is grateful to fans because they care about him, but what about Kristen, she has been crucified, vilified, abused, called hurtful names, had T-Shirts made with Trampire diplayed on them (they should all be burned) what a disgrace. This girl made a horrendous mistake, she has suffered enough, but everyone makes mistakes. No-one is perfect. I’ve yet to meet someone who is. If Rob is meeting with her this is a good thing because he needs to talk to her and get his answers, not turn his back and run. I just hope Rob can look deep in his soul and heart and make the right decision. It really mazes me how people know what he is doing. Where does all these stories come from. HL don’t know what the truth is, they print nothing but lies anyway. So if he has someone else in the UK does this mean he was cheating on kristen in the first place. I really hope not. Someone has said that Rob & Kristen are meeting and talking today. If he is still in london how can that be. Really get the stories straight. I hope they get back together, BUT ONLY TIME WILL TELL. I wish them the very best of luck in whatever happens. GOOD LUCK ROB AND KRISTEN. I think you are both terrific and fabulous.

Smitty, I would like to know as well. But who knows. Hey it’s nice to reply to you. I don’t know what to believe. I am an Aussie, but it just makes me angry that people all seem to have different stories. How they got these stories who knows what the truth is. It would be nice to know did he or did he not forgive her. I just wish someone would come out and say so that everyone knows. Someone has said he was meeting with Kristen today at 1pm. (it is 2/09/2012 4.20pm in Aus) and they are together is that talking or back together for real. I am just curious if he is in London how can he be meeting with her today. So I am like you I would like to know too. I love both of them and I think they are both a fabulous couple. I just think they need to be left alone to sort this out between them.

Words matter. In reading some of the post, this lonely Saturday night. There seems to be clear consensus that Rob is on the fence. Some have even gone as far as to say that he is a coward. Well, the truth is folks, we don’t know what the hell he is. Love can be so complex, with many layers. According to Spunk-Randsom’s broard adm., their source reporting Rob is in London is ligit.They say she had never been wrong before, hence another layer. Makes me want to scream, Rob, man-up get off the fence. ( Did you forgive her or not? ) Down side , we got weeks maybe months before we know the truth. In the mean time don’t be misled by the tabloids. My money is on, he forgave her weeks ago. I do believe in love!

Man up and forgive? Doubt you would be saying that if he was caught with a woman twice his age WHO HAD A HUSBAND AND CHILDREN. You all need to grow up. I hope to God he isn’t reading THIS drivel. Leave Rob alone. He has done nothing wrong. He endured public humiliation with grace. If he takes her back it’s his CHOICE. Fool me once…and maybe things weren’t so great in paradise for Kristen cheat – GASP! And even then SHE should have moved on first.

Those are the Kristen fans talking points. He is not allowed near any female from the ages of 15 to 60 without them screaming bloody murder. She is allowed to swear at him in public, kick him in the nutz in public and hump on other people in public all while having her fans tweet crap about him and his movies, family, friends and all his friends’ girlfriends. All this he is supposed to accept with a smile or he is the worst bf ever. This is such an uber bizarre take on things, that it must have been dreamed up in Stewartville publicist city to be disseminated throughout the fandom.

Ofcourse he has feelings for her. It’s not so easy to give up a 3 year relationship with someone you care for. I’m surprised he reads everything though. I wouldnt wanna know anything if I was him. Just because he has feelings for her doesn’t mean it’s a good idea to get back with her. She wasn’t thinking of him when she was with that director for months… This wasn’t some 1 night stand… He deserves someone that shares the same feelings he does. The media does make it gruesome for him to move on though seeing how there’s articles everywhere about this… Keep your chin up rob. Being famous is brutal I’m sure.

Kristen made a conscious decision to cheat on Rob; he does not owe her anything, and nothing was faked, he loved her very much. Kristen will now have to pay for her actions. No wonder she was pulled from starring in upcoming movies, Hollywood people already knew the cheat was real.
Rob, in order to stop it to do something. And do not sit in the bushes as you.

At this point, if Mr. Pattinson were my son, I would advise him to look into his heart and, if he loves Ms. Stewart, now is the time to reach out to her and try to heal. All the glitz & glamour are totally meaningless compared to the personal relationship. If you love this woman, go to her now. She does not deserve endless punishment.

Betrayal cannot be forgiven. The pictures of Rupert and Stewart make a lot of us, sick, terribly sick. I imagine they made Rob feel much worse. No wonder he looked so terrible at the teen choice awards, Kristen had told him but he had not seen the pictures yet. See, the relationship was never fake, he loved her very much. Remember the pictures in May 2012 at Cannes film festival? How could she, how could she? Kristen took the cowards way out, she should have told Rob she was’t interested any more, instead of sneaking around. I give you Kristen supporters credit, I stuck up for her for the last 4 years, and Can’t do it any more. I will never pay money to see her work, again.

They are both still young and film industry is terrible … they are not easy to fight with fame and everything that brings fame (especially money) … there is no longer a question of love, but money, film industry monay … I have to say that I disappointed in Robert, more than in the beginning with Kristen, for cheating … I was at the beginning on his side, I had the wrong opinion about him (I saw now that he has a big ego) – I think now opposite … but he’s just a kid who still needs to learn a lot about life…this is simpy so … and yes, they both suffering, but for the wrong reasons
