You're probably right, though I'm still not going to commit to any theory of precisely what relationship they have. I haven't been reading the posts (just saw the episode tonight, actually), but after this one I think I'll exhibit my common sense by avoiding the others, since it sounds like a lot of first degree wank. I got a bit of almost sinister vibes off of River Song, but I really don't think she's going to turn out to be some horrible con artist. It's probably just the overall weirdness of the situation.
Seeing as Ten is such an emo ball of masochism, the fact that River Song is very likely to die during his first meeting with her, I think, makes it make more sense that he would get caught up in that relationship, whether or not he intends to do so. In a way, I suppose, it'd almost like he got all the hurt out right at the beginning--he's seen her die, so he knows that any more meetings will be all wibbly wobbly timey wimey and not end in her dying (well, probably. I'm sure he could always inadvertently create a horrible paradox if he was careless).
Anyway, I'm mostly wondering what "saved" means, and worrying about Donna. Not going to go around reading the speculations, though. I already regret reading the River Song spoilers and not getting to just find out when I saw it.
