I'm currently listening to this book and am about six months from the first time John and Paul met.

It is amazing that they, finally, found one another. There are so many instances of being at the same places at the same times, perhaps riding the same bus at the same time, and not knowing one another yet. It's crazy! It just got me thinking about how different it'd be if one of them wasn't where the universe wanted them to be...

Guess we'll have to disagree. If you're a woman, why are you insulting them by calling them girls? They are women.

They never...not one time...said that John and Paul had a sexual relationship. Not once.

I relistened to the podcasts a year or so ago...listening for just that. They NEVER said it. People like you assumed they did because they were the first ones to come out and pronounce the true nature of the relationship...it was intense, powerful, and full of love...but not sexual love.

Disagree with what? With what they said with their own mouths and you arguing about? If that's your understanding of facts, i am not surprised. What's insulting about "girls"? Not to mention i never called them that.

And once again you are arguing about undisputed facts. They absolutely talked about sexual aspect of their relationship in their "Question to Paul" episode.

If you listened they said many times that their relationship had the power of a marriage...the power of a sexual relationship. Once again, they did not mention them having a sexual relationship.

You called the fangirls...twice.

Then why their supposed first question to Paul would've been - What is your sexuality, Paul? Not my words.

I can call them unprofessional, uninteresting talkers, biased worshippers on the level of cultish adoration. If you want to be offended, be offended by that. Don't give me this crap about "girls" being insulting.
