Question about Eva Braun?

Question

I think I am remembering this right: Eva Braun kept a diary and would write whenever she and Hitler were together. I believe that she used some phrase (like took a walk, etc) to put in place of sleeping together. Am I remembering this correctly, or am I mistaken? Has anyone else heard of this?

Answer 1

Twenty-two pages of Eva Braun's 1935 diary were found after the war - a fascinating document of an immature young woman whose love for Hitler is unmistakably sincere.

This early, authentic diary for the period from February 6 to May 28 1935 exists, both in German script and in English typescript translation, in the National Archives, Washington, D.C.

I waited for three hours in front of the Carlton, and had to watch him buying flowers for Ondra and inviting her to dinner. (That was just my mad imagination. March 16th.)

A quote: "He only needs me for certain purposes, otherwise it is not possible. This is idiocy. When he says he loves me, it only means he loves me at that particular instant."

She is not explicit in her description, but leaves little doubt as to what is inferred.

This site has 22 pages of her diary, began on her 23rd birthday--February 6, 1935--that were found after the war. In the entries, she referred to Hitler only as "he". On the May 10, 1935 entry it shows this:

         (Note: Since Eva had dinner with Hitler on March 31, she seems to be using the word "meeting" ("rendezvous" in the original) to mean having s*x. See April 1)

    On May 10, 1935, she admits this: I, the mistress of the greatest man in Germany and in the world..." and May 28 wrote "He has so often told me he is madly in love with me, but what does that mean when I haven't had a good word from him in three months?" (She had  sent him a letter demanding an explanation of why he treats like he does, and says she will take 25 sleeping pills if he doesn't answer the letter, and a few lines down, she decides on 35 pills).

The existence of Eva Braun - Adolf Hitler's mistress for more than 12 years and, in the end, his wife - was one of the most successfully guarded secrets of n**i Germany. According to Hitler's chauffeur Erich Kempka, Eva Braun was "the unhappiest woman in Germany. She spent most of her time waiting for Hitler." He had always kept her out of sight - as soon as guests arrived, he almost invariably banished her to her room.

     Hitler's personal valet, Heinz Linge, later recalled how the staff used to call her the "girl in a gilded cage".

     "Fraulein Braun is a young girl," Hitler once said to Linge, "too young to be the wife of one in my position. But she is the only girl for me. So we live as we do. But one day I shall give up the leadership of the Reich. I shall cease to be the Fuhrer and retire to Linz to a house that can be managed by a small staff. Then I will marry Fraulein Braun ..."

    Eva Braun, at 17, met Adolf Hitler the first time when she was working in Munich in 1929 as the assistant of Hitler's personal photographer Heinrich Hoffmann. From the moment Hitler walked into the shop, she was in love. He was introduced to her as "Mr. Wolff."  For the next sixteen years, she lived in luxury as millions suffered and died at the hands of her 'Wulf'.

    The March 11, 1935 entry refers to Hitler as "that Devil".and said "He only needs me for certain purposes. When he says he loves me, it only means he loves me at that particular instant."

    Her April 1 entry, to me anyway, sounds like he thinks of her as a prostitute: "Yesterday he invited us to dinner at the Vierjahrenzeiten (Four Seasons). I sat with him for three hours and we did not exchange a single word. At the end he handed me, as he had done before, an envelope with money in it. "

Albert Speer, once overheard Hitler say "...a highly intelligent man should always choose a primitive and stupid woman.

Imagine if, on top of everything else, I had a woman who interfered with my work!

    Though she often complained about Hitler's neglect and humiliation of her in her diary, her loyalty to Hitler never ceased. Toward the war's end, Eva was urged to flee Germany, but she wouldn't hear of it. On April 15, 1945, she flew from Munich to besieged Reich Chancellery in Berlin. Hitler ordered her to return to Munich. She refused. "Do you think," she reportedly said, "I will let you die alone?"

As a reward for her loyalty Hitler finally gave way and on the last day of his life, he finally married her.

H was very prudish, so this sounds likely....However, H also suffered from impotence.
