Hey Flaneuse, did you realize our post counter numbers are almost exactly the same? ha ha LOL! Anyway there are a few far fetched rumors about David on Lostpedia.
Quote:
Hurley's imaginary friend Dave is part of the way he deals with his father leaving. They have a same name and both encourage him to eat things he shouldn't.
David meant only to leave to go somewhere for only a minute, however he met a woman. This could have been Libby, they got into a relationship and got happily married for 13 years. However, for reasons unknown, maybe David felt guilty that he had left Carmen, he faked his own death and fled away from Libby. However it took him 4 years to find Carmen again and learn that Hurley had won the lottery. Because of David dying Libby was traumatized and was sent to the mental hospital. Of course David wanted the money, and then Libby finds out David isn't really dead and has a family and has cheated, she wanted Hurley's money as revenge and follows him on 815 only to crash land on the island.
I've often thought that our main character's (at least those with parent issues) parents may have been on the island. Maybe David was stuck there all that time he was gone.
While he was away he was recruited to go to the island.
Dave is an incarnation of the island/monster. Such as Yemi was to Eko and Christian to Jack. It tests you and if you fail you will die. It can read your mind and is omnipresent on the island.

like I said some are pretty far-fetched.
