    Was Priscilla a good choice for Elvis?

    do you think that Priscilla was a good choice for Elvis, and why do you think this way, and if you don't think she was a good choice,who would be the best choice for him,

    Yes, I do

    The more I think about it Priscilla was probably the person he should've married. I know people don't like her personally but the thing is she was very pretty and did whatever Elvis told her to do, Elvis wasn't go to find that quality in any other woman.

    People say Ann Margret but when Elvis was dating her (63-64) he was nowhere near ready to settle and AM had a career which would've caused problems so it's best he married Priscilla.

    Nothing wrong with Priscilla i don't know why people think she was so bad Elvis should have fire Col Parker and leave the business things to her Graceland shine today and Priscilla is behind it.

    I really don't know. She cheated on him, so maybe not a good choice after all.

    Maybe Elvis married Priscilla because he saw innocence and purity in her. And was perhaps expecting her to remain sweet, naive, oblivious to all his womanizing, just patiently waiting for him to come home. But, she obviously didn't remain that way.

    At that time, Priscilla seemed like the right choice for Elvis. She was the type of woman that Elvis could make his wife. Young, pure, naive, from a good family but most importantly, he could "shape" her the way he wanted to. Eventually, it turned out that Elvis shouldn't have been married at all. Not to Priscilla but to any woman. But at that time, yes, I believe that Priscilla was indeed the right choice for him.

    Elvis thought she was the right on. Now as for cheating on Elvis, he saw and had relationship while he was seeing Priscilla.

    Maybe they had an arrangement

    OMgosh, Sweet, innocent, tolerant of his affairs, pure?? So far from that!
    I know, I know, that is the image she has projected from day one. But that is not the truth of what she is/was. No way on earth.
    But I do agree, Elvis should not have married anyone at the time he did.

    I think that he married exactly who he wanted to and loved more than anyone else. To me that clearly shows every time you look at pictures of them. Even in the pics that it seems they were having a rough patch. To me it also shows in how he handled her leaving. But it shows on her end too in the way she remained close to him until he died and how she still keeps him alive.

    He made a good choice. He loved her and she loved him. That`s a big pill for some to swallow. He wasn`t forced to marry her. I don`t agree with everything she has done however, I do believe that Elvis loved her deeply.

    And there are two sides to that story, we all know that. So yes, I guess if you believe that you will also believe that it was this wonderful romantic fantasy.
    I don't think it was. I think it was Elvis making the best of a situation he got himself into. I think it was Elvis trying to do the right thing.
    Did he love her, yes he did. Was he able to be happy in a situation he created, yes he was.
    He also hated doing many of those movies but(made and obligation) he managed to have fun and make the best of it. Elvis was like that.
    But if anyone thinks the story goes like Priscilla tells it, no, I don't think so.
    People bring up the fact that Elvis liked to "mold" and train women, I'm sorry, in my opinion that has been grossly overstated. I think he did expected women to adapt to his lifestyle and be a certain way. But I also think Priscilla had her ideas of what she thought he should be. Problem is, neither of them was happy when they found out they were not going to get that out of each other.

    Re: was Priscilla a good choice for Elvis?

    gosh i love your posts Missy. They are real. People have still to many romantic idea's about Pris and Elvis fairytale....

    May have "looked" like a fairytale, but it sure had darker shades.

    I think Elvis met many sweet and caring girls in his life. And nope Pris was not the best thing that ever happened to him. She may have been for a brief while yes.

    But i can't understand people who love Elvis and who love her equally too. If you look at the outcome of that fairytale, we all know it had a very bitter end.

    I guess it was all written in the stars, faith did his thing but part of me believes he had been way better of if he had never met her.
    It's hard NOT to imagine Elvis as perfect; how else could someone be THAT good looking, THAT talented, THAT generous & THAT charismatic

    This is another one of those threads that we all can discuss to no end.

    It's really simple, yes, she was his choice. He loved her, she loved him.

    He denied his love for her on returning from the Army for obvious reasons, she was what, 14, 15, he was 25. No way he could have said I love this girl.

    But he must have been nuts over her.

    And Priscilla of course was nuts over Elvis, what girl would not be...

    It's too bad things later on worked out like they did. But that was also to be expected.
    Elvis fooled around, Priscilla got bored being left alone.

    It's simply put, I know, but it's how it was...
