Mary Werbelow biography part 1 (part 2)
Early years and relationship with Jim Morrison
Mary Werbelow was born in July 1944 and she came from a very strict Catholic family.
[Mary when she was 12 years old. Ebay]
In Summer 1962 she was just finishing her junior year at Clearwater High, when Mary and best friend Mary Wilkin spread their beach blanket near Pier 60, she was 17, and met Jim Morrison, who had been sent here by his father, then a Navy captain, after he blew off his high school graduation ceremony in Virginia. He had just finished the year at St. Petersburg Junior College and lived with his grandparents.
Mary was on the high school homecoming court. Her friends did cotillion dances at the Jack Tar Harrison Hotel, hit Brown Brothers dairy store for burgers and malts, and shopped Mertz's records for Ben E. King, Del Shannon and Elvis Presley.
Jim read his poetry at the avant-garde Beaux Arts coffeehouse in Pinellas Park and visited St. Pete's only live burlesque show, at the Sun Art Theater on Ninth Street.
Friends who thought they knew Mary couldn't fathom why she would want to hang out with Jim Morrison. What they didn't know was how out of place Mary felt in her social circle. Jim talked like no one she had met. "We connected on a level where speaking was almost unnecessary. We'd look at each other and know what we were thinking." He recited long poems from memory.
[L-R: Andy - Jim's younger brother - Mary and Jim pictured in Summer 1962. The Doors by The Doors & Ben Fong Torres]
She liked her alone time, in her bedroom, dancing and drawing. Jim liked his alone time, in his bedroom, reading. They skipped dances and football games and hung out, at her house or at his grandparents' house.
When Jim drove, Mary kept a notebook at the ready. "Write this!" he'd say, dictating an observation. Or he'd pull over and scribble himself. "He was a genius," Mary says. "He was incredible."
Mary says he rarely drank in her presence. "It was out of respect for me. We were in love, and he didn't want to do things that I didn't like."
At fall, Jim transferred to Florida State. Most weekends, rain or shine, he hitchhiked back to Clearwater, 230 miles down U.S. 19. Most days in between, letters postmarked Tallahassee arrived at the Werbelow mailbox on Nursery Road.
Mary's father intercepted one, read the page about sex and never got to the part that made clear Jim was writing about a class. Furious at her father's snooping, she burned all Jim's letters, a move she came to regret, deeply.
At Jim's direction, she wrote once a week and included the number of a public telephone in Clearwater and a time he should call. On his end, Jim would put in a dime for the first two minutes. They would talk for hours. On her end, Mary would loiter by the phone at the appointed hour.
[Mary early modelling shots, 1963. Ebay, tumblr ank links below]
On March 30, 1963 the Jaycees called to recruit Mary for the Miss Clearwater competition, Mary's mother answered the phone."Oh, yeah," she said, as Mary recalled "she'll be happy to do it." although Mary herself would have declined.
The third and final night of competition, more than 1,000 people packed Clearwater Municipal Auditorium. Five finalists matched "beauty, personality and poise." Mary was looking good, not that Jim was thrilled. If she won, it was on to Miss Florida. Mary performed body twirls. She did the bossa nova. Time for her big question: "If your husband grew a beard, what would you do?" she answered: "I'd let him grow it. Whether he would kiss me or not would be another matter."
She got first runner-up.
As Mary's father banned Jim from the Werbelow house, she followed him to Tallahassee for a semester, although her parents objected. in 1964, When he started film school at UCLA and Mary announced she was following him to Los Angeles, her parents were devastated.
Mary says Jim asked her to wear "something floaty" when she arrived in Los Angeles. "He wanted me to look like an angel coming off the plane." Instead, she drove out a week early and surprised him.
Together again, in an exciting, intimidating city, they kept separate apartments. By November 1964 Mary got her first real job, in the office of a hospital X-ray department. Later, she donned a fringe skirt and boots as a go-go dancer at Gazzari's on the Sunset Strip although Jim didn't like the idea. Later that month, she went to Celebrate Thanksgiving with Jim and his parents.
[Mary as a go-go dancer at Gazzari's on the Sunset Strip, 1964. Ebay]
Jim studied film. At the end of the year, a handful from among hundreds of student films were selected for public showing. Jim's was not among them. Shortly after, Mary says, he told her he was humiliated, considered his formal education over and needed to forget everything. He built a fire in his back yard and incinerated many of his precious Florida notebooks.
Mary says he started doubting her commitment. "You're going to leave me," he would tell her. "No, I'm not. How can you say that? I'm in love with you."
After one fight, Jim went out with another woman. He wasn't home the next morning. Mary went to the woman's house, but she said Jim wasn't there. Mary called: "Come out wherever you are!" Jim slinked forward, a hand towel around him. Mary bolted and, in a blur, hit the woman's fence as she sped off. "That was the beginning of the end."
He was drinking hard and taking psychedelic drugs. The darkness she had always seen seemed to be overtaking him, and she didn't want to watch him explore his self-destructive bent. And she felt he had swallowed her identity. Whatever he liked, she liked. "I had to go out and see what parts of that were me. I just knew I had to be away from him. I needed to be by myself, to find my own identity."
She enrolled in art school. The day Jim helped her move to a new apartment, she told him she needed a break. "He clammed up after that. I really hurt him. It hurts me to say that. I really hurt him."
They split up in the summer of 1965.
A few months later, Jim got together with a film school buddy, Ray Manzarek, who says he wanted to combine his keyboards with Jim's poetry. They started the band that became the Doors. "He didn't sit around and sing," Mary says, laughing. "Jim, no, he was a poet. He wrote poetry."
By phone from his home in Northern California, Manzarek says all the guys in film school were in love with Mary. She was gorgeous, and sweet on top of that. "She was Jim's first love. She held a deep place in his soul."
[Ray, Mary and Jim in a film from 1964/early 1965 when Ray & Jim were students at UCLA, from thedoorsareopened tiktok]
The Doors' 11-minute ballad The End, Manzarek says, originally was "a short goodbye love song to Mary." Doors drummer John Densmore stated: "Jim wrote The Crystal Ship for Mary Werbelow, a girlfriend with whom he was breaking up. . . . The song was a goodbye love song."
Jim Morrison took up with other women, notably with longtime companion Pam, but Mary says she and Jim kept up with each other. She says she was his anchor to the times before things got crazy. "I'd see him when he really needed to talk to someone."
She thought they were too young. She worried they might grow apart. She needed more time to explore her own identity, so by late 1968 to early-mid 1969, Mary moved to India to study meditation, while there, she wrote several letters to her parents. She never saw Jim again.

Iconic/memorable moments Indycar: Marcus Armstrong At IndyCar Spring Training New Indy Car Driver Marcus Armstrong about the Grand Prix of St Pete OVER THE WALL // ACURA GRAND PRIX OF LONG BEACH Marcus Armstrong Long Beach Preview Marcus Armstrong Post Qualifications Marcus Armstrong rocked up to Turn 1 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway to see what 235mph looks like… Callum and Marcus chat during pre-season testing:
F2 and earlier: F2 Speed Date: Marcus Armstrong The Wet Head Challenge HOW TO BECOME A FERRARI DRIVER, A CONVERSATION WITH MARCUS ARMSTRONG F2 DRIVER | Sector 1 Marcus Armstrong Interview | Sky Speed Marcus Armstrong: All the way from New Zealand Keeping it cool at Prema “Michael Shakespeare”: Bullying from Callum and James: Marcus wins “best late lunge” award from F2: Marcus Armstrong Once Said…: Marcus absolutely annoying the shit out of Arthur Leclerc during a virtual GP: F2 Speed Date (2020): Marcus sings “Rocket Man”: Marcus attempting to be sweet with Callum, who is absolutely not having it:
Doing fast laps around Goodwood in his dad’s car: 16-year-old Marcus talks about leaving home to move to Europe alone: Clem Novalak loves Marcus: He likes pineapple on pizza: Interesting content:
Marcus is a self-proclaimed "lover not a fighter". He's known to be very friendly and approachable, with a significant portion of the Formula 2 grid mentioning that he was the driver they got on with best in the paddock during his time there. His results in F2 were mixed, moving teams in 3 successive years, as he sometimes had difficulty getting to grips with the F2 car and tyres, however it’s generally agreed that his midfield championship positions during his F2 tenure aren’t an accurate reflection of his genuine ability and talent. Multiple Ganassi team members (including the boss) have commented on how impressed they are by his raw speed, work ethic, and attitude since his arrival in IndyCar. Marcus himself has already talked about how much more enjoyable the Indy car is to drive and how much fun he’s having now after several years of struggling with the notoriously difficult F2 car. He also appears to be getting on well with his CGR teammates and in particular has talked about how much he likes Marcus Ericsson.
He moved to London in early 2022 after spending several years living near Ferrari’s HQ in Maranello, Italy, and is known to enjoy city nightlife, being a big fan of wine. He’s a major foodie who likes taking photos of good food almost as much as he enjoys complaining about bad food. He is known to be determined to the point of stubbornness, causing himself permanent damage to his knee during a half-marathon due to refusing to stop when he was in pain. He had a low attendance record at school due to focusing on his racing career and moving to Europe at the age of 14, and as such, although he’s not unintelligent he’s known to be somewhat lacking in general knowledge (such as thinking Shakespeare’s first name was Michael). However, he has the characteristically Kiwi dry, sarcastic sense of humor and very much enjoys mutual teasing and banter with his close friends, something that’s often on display in the Screaming Meals podcasts.
Fanfic Lore
Usually paired with Callum Ilott, or F2 driver Clement Novalak due to their extremely close and physically affectionate friendship - was Clem’s teammate during their karting days, and has said that they talk every day while he’s in the US Likes to tease Callum and wind him up to his face, but often calls him his best mate and praises him when he’s not around. However Callum rarely (if ever) reciprocates the latter, probably due to his intense Britishness Good friends with multiple drivers from various series, including Juan Manuel Correa, Jüri Vips, Guanyu Zhou, Nick Cassidy, Max Fewtrell and Felipe Drugovich Also has a tendency to “adopt” younger drivers and refer to them as “little bro”, including Jak Crawford and Dino Beganovic Has said on several occasions that he doesn’t wear underwear, and also shaves his legs (and possibly elsewhere, having claimed that he is “hairless from the eyebrows down”) Claims he can’t tell the difference between someone being nice to him and someone flirting with him

In this article, we will review the different factors as to the kinds of Pinellas County Real Estate, the characteristics of the communities, the types of properties available, and the reasons why they are suitable for the real estate business.
Location and Geography
Pinellas County Real Estate is in the west-central region of Florida, lying west of Tampa Bay and south of the Gulf of Mexico.
The County occupies an area of 280 square miles and has 24 independent incorporated cities, the biggest of which are St. Petersburg and Clearwater. Its location allows it to access some of Florida's most beautiful coastlines, attracting residents and investors.
Climate and Lifestyle
It has a subtropical climate, with hot and often humid summers and cool, comfortable winters. This climate and the fact that the County is chock full of outdoor activities would be fascinating for tourists.
Some activities one can carry out include boating, fishing, playing golf, and walking on the sandy beaches at any season.
Primary Demographics in Pinellas County
Petersburg
St. Petersburg, or St. Pete, is the largest city in Pinellas County and is considered one of the vital cultural centers of Florida. People can appreciate its rich and diverse art life, numerous museums, and enthusiastic downtown with restaurants, shops, and other interesting establishments. It also has fantastic waterside parks and the famous St. Pete beach.
Clearwater
Clearwater is famous for its clean, white sandy beaches and blue waters. It comprises a residential area, business district, tourism, and the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, among the popular tourist attractions.
Is Clearwater Beach on your list of the preferred regions for living by the shore? It should be because this beach is frequently listed among the country's top shoreline locations.
Dunedin
Dunedin is the next small city famous for its connection to Scottish roots and adorable main street. This comprises several shops, eateries, and breweries, including designer shops.
The town also has Honeymoon Island State Park, which gives the inhabitants and tourists a view of the natural, unblemished environment.
Tarpon Springs
Therefore, Tarpon Springs is famous for its historic sponge docks and many Greek residents. Culture, history, and the availability of waterfront living make this city stand out.
Due to the numerous waterfront lots and houses and antique structures and buildings, living in Tarpon Springs is unique in many ways.
Types of Properties Available
Single-Family Homes
Single-family homes in Pinellas County are available to suit almost every preference, whether bungalows, mid-century downloads, or newly built homes. They exist in different price segments, so it is easy for a buyer to find a home that will fit their wallet.
Condominiums and Townhomes
Apartments and villas are also shared among home buyers due to the limited number of responsibilities.
These are mostly preferred by young people employed and those who use their homes on a seasonal basis.
Luxury Properties
To summarize, Pinellas County has a vast choice of comfortable, let alone luxurious, houses. Some prime residences include waterfront luxury homes for those who prefer to live in their own built homes, luxury condos, and some of the best restricted gated communities with a view of the Gulf of Mexico or Tampa Bay.
The premium segment is well developed here; people often look for acquired amenities and locations in a property.
Investment Properties
Real estate investment is also well-suited in Pinellas County. As the population increases, especially tourists, the need to occupy rental units increases, hence the vital tourism industry.
Indeed, there are prospects for investing in holiday lets, leaseholds, permanent tenancies, and business properties.
Factors Influencing the Real Estate Market of Pinellas County
Economic Growth
Pinellas County boasts economic growth that has been steadily rising consistently for some time now in various financial areas, namely health, learning institutions, tourism, and technology.
As primary employers, hospitals, universities, and well-established information technology firms also help stabilize the employment market and lure new people to the region.
Quality of Life
This aspect played a role in the County's real estate quality. Necessities such as quality education from highly ranked schooling institutions, quality and accessible health care services, and other leisure services and cultural endowments are fundamental offerings in Bakersfield.
The natural environment, including the seashore, parks, and water facilities, creates an excellent domicile environment.
Infrastructure and Transportation
With better transport networks, Pinellas County is endowed with better social facilities. Another aspect that is easily accessible, especially for public transport, is the bus provided by the Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (P.S.T.A.).
The Tampa International Airport is nearby for air transport, efficiently serving the County. Several major highways and bridges dissect the County and link it to other subregions in the Tampa Bay area, hence providing convenient transport.
Community and Lifestyle
Therefore, every community in Pinellas County displays its distinctive qualities and ways of life.
From the artistic and cosmopolitan city of St. Petersburg, with all its luxurious and stylish preferences, to the more relaxed and devoted recreational activities in Kumar Clearwater, those who choose the above cities as their residence can select a community that corresponds to them.
For this reason, the County is desirable to various buyers due to this diversification.
Buying Real Estate in Pinellas County
Observing the situation in the real estate market of Pinellas County, one can notice that it is relatively stable, and the price range continually increases. Most of the properties in the area are appreciated, considering that the area is Santa Clarita and is deemed economically sound.
Nevertheless, it should be understood that the market can be unstable and fluctuating. Therefore, the buyer should be aware of current tendencies and cooperate with a professional in the sphere of real estate agents.
Financing Options
The financing plans available are conventional mortgages, F.H.A. loans at Pinellas County, and V.A. loans.
In real estate, it is usually a good idea to become prequalified for a home loan before beginning the purchasing procedure to produce the buying process and increase bargaining power.
Dealing with a Real Estate Agent
Professional local agent assistance is highly advisable when finding a property in Pinellas County. An experienced agent is aware of the areas of interest to the clients, helps them search for homes, and bargains and closes.
Property Inspections and Due Diligence
It is recommended that obligatory and correct property assessments and other relevant investigations be performed before purchasing a real estate property in Pinellas County.
It can be done to cover any possible concerns regarding hurricanes and floods because Queens is a coastal county.
Buyers should also study the property records, the laws governing property zoning, and any rules and regulations of any homeowners' association.

Service and Support: Choose a rental company that offers excellent customer service, including a comprehensive orientation on how to safely operate the scooter. Good support also means being able to reach the company easily in case of issues during the rental period.
Quality of Scooters: Ensure that the scooters are well-maintained and in good condition. A quick test ride before starting your rental can help you identify any potential issues.

Did you know that living in Fort Wayne, IN is not the desolate, bleak hellscape that every coastal resident would have you believe?
we have things such as:
- reasonable cost of living
- low mortgage payments/rates
- seasons!
- queer communities
- queer pride gatherings!
- vast expanses of nature to explore like grasslands, wetlands, forests, dunes and lakes
- unique food culture!
- fair/well paying jobs!
- maker spaces for things like welding, blacksmithing, ceramics, sewing and more!
- great spots for live shows/music!
I have lived in Indiana since early 2018 and I'm coming up on my fifth year of living here. I love it here. It feels like home to me. I have a very comfortable life, a great job, and I'm only about 3.5- hours in any direction to chicago, indianapolis, bloomington, toledo, detroit and more. Roach and I own a home, a goal that I never in my wildest dreams thought that I'd be able to attain at any age. We bought it for $75,000.00 and since buying it in February of 2021, it has appreciated in value to nearly $100,000.00. It's a comfortable three bed one bath with a huge basement, great natural light, wonderfully convenient location, great neighbors, and beautiful streets.
I just!!! All I want is for coastal folks to give the midwest a shot. You do not have to pay $2500 every month to live in a shoebox. Our house is 1500 sq ft and we pay $600 a month for it. You do not have to live coastally in order to succeed in the art industry. @ironcircuscomics is located in Chicago, IN THE MIDWEST, and is one of (if not the most) biggest indie comics publishers in the entire US. I work with Spike! It's possible! CAKE is in Chicago, and Fort Wayne has it's own Comic Con for pete's sake.
We have a lovely group of 10+ queer and LGBT positive friends who live within slingshot distance, we get together regularly for birthdays, holidays and other social gatherings (COVID willing), and my partner @roach-works has a great job as a welder that pretty much provides us with everything we need, if not more. We are so happy here. We have stability, equity, social/friend security, comfort, and peace.
If you need to be convinced further, please look at what kind of housing is available in our area and at what price:
https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1707-High-St-Fort-Wayne-IN-46808/73126186_zpid/
This house is literally under $700 a month for FIVE BEDROOMS AND TWO BATHROOMS. It is VERY possible to make this happen. If you have ok credit and a couple of well-trusted friends who are down to pitch in and sign a mortgage for a home like this, you could easily create an artist commune in a very vibrant midwestern city. You could have quail in your back yard and you could have a good sized garden if you wanted to try your hand at urban sustainable living! There really aren't any food deserts here either.
IDK. I want to show more people what is possible if you live/move out here. It isn't desolate, I promise. It is beautiful and vibrant and alive. You could be comfortable here.
Consider this an open offer: IF THIS SOUNDS APPEALING TO YOU, please talk to me! I have a realtor I can put you in touch with. I can explain what our homebuying process looked like. I can give you insight/help. We could host you if you wanted to tour the city. I DEEPLY love this place and I hope I can get more people to love it, too.

Jealous Guys
Something I’ve been thinking about for a while now is the different ways jealousy manifested for John and Paul over the course of their friendship.
I’m going to look at John and Paul in turn and have a look at some of the key ways jealousy appeared, before, during and after the Beatles period. This will be a looooong post so if you want to go on deep dive keep reading below.
John
Jealousy was something that John acknowledged as a big part of his personality, as far as I’m aware, he only acknowledged his jealousy publicly in terms of his relationship with Yoko but I believe jealousy was a feature of all of John’s major relationships. John’s first real partnership was with Pete Shotton, his childhood best friend, and Pete has outlined how John’s jealousy and possessiveness was a feature in their friendship with them falling out when Pete first started showing interest in girls and with John acting out when Pete started to spend more time with other friends, instead of him, here Pete recounts John’s reflection on this period of their friendship:
“Years later John confessed to having felt acutely jealous throughout that interlude: “I was scared shitless I’d lost you after our fight in science class, when you starting playing with David Jones. I really thought I’d gone too far with you that time.“
Pete Shotton, John Lennon: In My Life , 1983
Pete’s recollections establish a pattern in John’s life of acting out due to a fear of abandonment and losing those who are closest to him so it’s not surprising that once John had formed a strong bond with Paul that would stir similar fears in him.
Below I’ve categorised the groups of people that were the focus of John’s jealousy and have picked one person from each group as an example:
Family - Jim McCartney
Paul’s family was and continues to be a big part of his life. From the outset of their friendship, John was made aware of how important Jim was to Paul and vice versa. John and Paul had to skip school to hang out together because Jim wouldn’t have John in their house initially and John confessed his resentment of Jim’s influence over Paul’s life. It appears that after some time John grew tired of having to contend with Jim for the position of the most important person in Paul’s life, and this culminated in John giving Paul a pseudo ultimatum as John discussed in 1971:
“But Paul would always give in to his dad. His dad told him to get a job, he fucking dropped the group and started working on the fucking lorries, saying, "I need a steady career." We couldn't believe it… “So I told him on the phone, "Either come or you're out." So he had to make a decision between me and his dad then, and in the end he chose me”
St. Regis Hotel interview, Sept. 5, 1971
Friends - Mal Evans
Throughout the active years of the band it was typical of them to refer to each other as their best friends and, given the lives they led, I think the simple fact that no one else could understand what it was like to be a Beatle would have meant they all shared a special bond. However, they all had friendships outside of the band and this was something that could cause issues for John when it came to Paul.
According to Tune In, Mal initially became friends with Paul during the band's initial shows at the Cavern Club then, after a suggestion from George, Mal became a part of the Beatles entourage thereafter. Mal had friendships with all the Beatles, as part of their inner circle, but from his comments it appears John took umbrage with the closeness of Mal’s friendship with Paul:
“Paul would suddenly come in with this circle saying, “This is Magical Mystery Tour, will you write that bit?” And I was choked that he’d arranged it all with Mal anyway, for a kickoff, and had all this idea going”
St. Regis Hotel interview, Sept. 5, 1971
Mal also comes up when John discusses his recollections of the writing of Eleanor Rigby:
“So rather than ask me, “John, do these lyrics—” Because by that period, he didn’t want to say that – to me. Okay? So what he would say was, “Hey, you guys, finish off the lyrics,”... “ Now, I sat there with Mal Evans, a road manager who was a telephone installer, and Neil Aspinall, who was a not-completed student accountant who became our road manager. And I was insulted and hurt that he’d thrown it out in the air”...” There might be a version that they contributed, but there isn’t a line in there that they put in.“
Playboy interview, David Sheff 1980
John’s discomfort with the closeness of Paul’s relationship with Mal was something that wasn’t lost on Mal’s wife Lil:
“He was always at their beck and call. He was a nice fella to have around, so much so that it could provoke little jealousies within the band. When I met Yoko years after Mal died, she said John had told her he’d been very jealous at one point of Mal’s relationship with Paul.”
Lil Evans interview with Ray Connolly, 2005
Love interests - Linda McCartney
Throughout their friendship both John and Paul had quite a few love interests, which (to varying degrees) prompted jealousy between them.
Although John displayed jealousy of a few of Paul’s love interests this was no more apparent than with Paul’s first wife Linda McCartney, which is confirmed by both John’s words and actions regarding Linda and her partnership with Paul:
“"Then Klein informed Lennon that McCartney had secretly been increasing his stake in Northern Songs. ‘John flew into a rage,’ recalled Apple executive Peter Brown. ‘At one point I thought he was really going to hit Paul, but he managed to calm himself down.’ One unconfirmed report of this meeting had Lennon leaping towards Linda McCartney, his fists raised in her face"
Peter Doggett, You Never Give Me Your Money
"Int: When did you first meet her [Linda]? John: The first time I saw her was after that press conference to announce Apple in America. We were just going back to the airport and she was in the car with us. I didn't think she was particularly attractive, I wondered what he was bothering having her in the car for. A bit too tweedy, you know. But she sat in the car and took photographs and that was it. And the next minute she's married him."
St. Regis Hotel interview, Sept. 5, 1971
“I was reading your letter and wondering what middle aged cranky Beatle fan wrote it... "What the hell—it’s Linda! . . . Linda— if you don’t care what I say—shut up!—let Paul write—or whatever.”
"Of course, the money angle is important—to all of us—especially after all the petty shit that came from your insane family/in laws—and GOD HELP YOU OUT, PAUL—see you in two years—I reckon you’ll be out then"
Draft letter from John Lennon to Linda McCartney, circa 1971
"The presumption is a) the Beatles would get together again or are even thinking about it and b) if they got together, John and Yoko split, Paul and Linda split"
John (with Yoko) talks to John Fielding on Weekend World, 1973
"John often speculated on why Paul and Linda remained married while, at the same time, resenting their evident happiness, to the extent that he had Green do a tarot reading to ensure him that Paul and Linda were really secretly miserable and were going to divorce within a year"
According to Fred Seaman and John Green, source
Paul
Of course jealousy wasn't a one-way street in the Lennon-McCartney relationship. Unlike with John, for Paul I'm focusing more on the key people I believe his jealousy, regarding John, was directed to:
Stuart Sutcliffe
John met Stu at Art College and struck up a really close friendship with him. At the point that John met Stu, John had already become friends with Paul so Paul felt threatened when Stu entered the picture:
"When he [Stu] came into the band, around Christmas of 1959, we were a little jealous of him; it was something I didn’t deal with very well. We were always slightly jealous of John’s other friendships.
When Stuart came in, it felt as if he was taking the position away from George and me. We had to take a bit of a back seat."
Paul McCartney, Anthology 2000
"Paul was saying something about Stu’s girl – he was jealous because she was a great girl, and Stu hit him, on stage. And Stu wasn’t a violent guy at all."
John Lennon, 1967 Anthology 2000
"I looked up to Stu. I depended on him to tell me the truth. Stu would tell me if something was good and I’d believe him. We were awful to him sometimes. Especially Paul, always picking on him. I used to explain afterwards that we didn’t dislike him, really."
John Lennon, The Beatles Hunter Davies 1968
Yoko Ono
Of all the relationships I've already discussed, the relationship and jealousy displayed from Paul towards Yoko is probably the most widely discussed in Beatles historiography and general discourse. From the official start of Yoko's relationship with John in 1968 it was clear that Paul resented her presence in John's life and her proximity to the band:
"He even sent them [John and Yoko] a hate letter once, unsigned, typed. I brought it in with the morning mail. Paul put most of his fan mail in a big basket and let it sit for weeks, but John and Yoko opened every piece. When they got to the anonymous note, they looked puzzled, looking at each other with genuine pain in their eyes. ‘You and your Jap tart think you’re hot shit’, it said."
Francie Schwartz, Body Count 1972
"Cause she’s [Yoko] very much to do with it from John’s angle, that’s the thing, you know. And I – the thing is that I – there’s— Again, like, there’s always only two answers. One is to fight it, and fight her, and try and get The Beatles back to four people without Yoko, and sort of ask her to sit down at the board meetings. Or else, the other thing is to just realize that she’s there, you know. And he’s not gonna sort of – split with her, just for our sakes."
Paul McCartney, Let It Be Sessions, 1969
"I told John on the phone the other day that at the beginning of last year I was annoyed with him. I was jealous because of Yoko, and afraid about the break-up of a great musical partnership. It’s taken me a year to realise that they were in love. Just like Linda and me."
Paul McCartney, interview with Ray Connolly, 1970
What are the similarities and differences in the way jealousy manifested for John and Paul?
I think it's obvious but bears repeating that both John and Paul displayed jealousy towards other people who they felt would threaten their relationship so that's central to all the instances I have flagged, Jim, Mal, Linda, Stu, Yoko all posed real or imagined threats to John and Paul's partnership.
However, you'll note that I included more sources to display John's jealousy regarding Paul and that I categorised John's jealousy targets whereas I only pulled out two key individuals for Paul, this isn't to say that John was more jealous than Paul was, as jealousy isn't something you can quantify, but to highlight my opinion that Paul's jealousy regarding John was more targeted than John's jealousy regarding Paul. I think what stands out to me is that, I think generally Stu and Yoko are held up as the prime examples of Paul's jealousy of other people getting close to John, as far as we know, Paul never had significant issues with other people who formed close relationships with John like Pete Shotton, Cynthia Lennon, Magic Alex etc., why was that? I think that Paul was more threatened when he felt that John was replacing him so by bringing Stu into the band (even though he wasn't a musician) and Yoko into the studio (one instance where Paul was especially hurt was when John gave Paul's line in The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill to Yoko to sing), Paul perhaps felt that his place as John's primary collaborator was in jeopardy and that he could lose a partnership that had become central to his self-worth as a person - that, I believe, was when his jealousy was most likely to rise to the fore. John, on the other hand, had a much wider range of targets when it came to jealousy regarding Paul, why was John jealous of Linda? Linda wasn't trying to replace John as Paul's collaborator, if anything she wanted the Lennon-McCartney partnership to be stronger. Why was John jealous of Mal? Mal wasn't a musician, Mal was a huge fan of the band and constantly worked to fulfil their requests, so why was John so threatened by his friendship with Paul? For me, John's jealousy regarding Paul was more than just a fear of directly being replaced, I believe John's jealousy was fundamentally triggered by a fear of abandonment. I think the childhood trauma John experienced, of being left by both his parents, meant that whenever any of his close friendships and relationships were threatened, or he felt that someone close to him may leave him, he would act out. John fell out with his childhood best friend Pete when he got a girlfriend, John hit Cynthia when he saw her dancing with Stu, John was rude to several of Paul's love interests and ultimately John never fully accepted Paul's relationship with Linda because, although he could see that she could offer Paul the family life he always wanted, John didn't want Linda to take Paul away and give him a family that meant that Paul would no longer be able to prioritise John in his life as he had in the past.
Ultimately, we'll never know all the ways that jealousy factored into John and Paul's relationship with each other and those around them, as I'm sure it impacted several relationships in more complex ways than I can articulate (i.e. I suspect jealousy played a part in Paul's initial resentment of Brian but they grew closer over time so maybe Paul's jealousy lessened over time or Brian became less of a threat?). I do think it's important to consider that jealousy was present on both sides and was likely a factor in the breakdown of John and Paul's relationship, the breakdown of the Beatles and was a continued factor in disrupting reconciliations between John and Paul into the 70s and 1980.
