The Story Of Popeye And Olive
When we first see Popeye and Olive together we find that Olive is not that impressed with him at all. She was actually the girlfriend of Ham Gravy back at this point in time. This was the way things were for a long time.
Then along came Popeye, it was not as people would think though, they were not an instant match when it came their relationship. In fact Olive did not like him much in the beginning and they would argue quite a bit. It took a bit of time for them to realize that they did care about one another.
After they did declare the feelings that they had for one another they did not have the normal kind of relationship that we see between couples. Olive was known to be the type of person that would get angry over very minor things.
Popeye on the other hand was quite violent in the early days of their relationship and this is one of the things that irritated Olive. This tendency towards violence that Popeye had in the past has seemed to calm down immensely due to the respect that he has for Olive.
Popeye also was a hero in Olive’s eyes. There are many situations where we see that Olive has been kidnapped or has gotten into some other situation that required a helping hand. It always was Popeye that would come to the rescue. This is one of the primary things that Popeye does that keeps Olive’s affection.
Bluto is a rival of Popeye’s that is continually trying to win over the affection of Olive. He is always trying some stunt or another to get Popeye out of the way so that he can make moves on Olive. But they never end up in the manner that Bluto wants them to as Popeye always seems to manage to get out of the situation and rescue the fair maiden Olive. It is no wonder they have had such a long relationship.
