What smellslikesnow posted earlier, how Carly told Jason he feels deeply and sometimes causes him to shut down? I think that's the reason that Jason never mentions Jake. I think if he were to think about him all the time, it would destroy him. He and Elizabeth made an agreement, for the safety of their son, and he's abiding by that. And everything that's going on with Michael right now is probably only reinforcing his belief that he did the right thing. It doesn't mean that he doesn't love Jake, it's actually the opposite. He loves him enough to let him go. Not saying I like it, but I kind of understand the character's point of view. It's almost like he's blocked out that entire part of his life, because he knows he'll never have the happiness he had with Liz and the boys. JMO, but that is very characteristic of Jason Morgan. He did the same thing when he came back years ago and Carly was with Sonny. He's not the type to break down and wallow over what he's lost. In my head he sacrificed his own happiness for the safety and future of not only his son, but also the woman he loves, Liz.



I agree with this totally

The mistake they made though was putting him back with Samho. That was character suicide on their part and I think they know it now.
Face it the real Jason Morgan LOVES kids about all else. He loved his own son "more than his own life" and I do NOT doubt that
Think walking away from Jake was as he said " compromising himself everyday" but he did it cause he truly believes his son is better off without him
He doesn't want him or liz or cam in that life. he does not think they should be in "that life". they are too good for him and the way he lives.
he also doesn't want his son to see him as a "criminal" and hate him one day. jason is very concerned with HOW his son will view him. he wants jake to know how much he loves him. enough to give him a better life. a safe life and NOT be KNOWN as a mobsters son.
hence the mikey story...mikey is "targeted" cause of who he is and who they are trying to get too.
jason does not want that for jake

like I said though the REAL Jason would never get back with someone like Ho....
although in jason's mind she is all he deserves. she is as BAD a person as he is...she has no morals or values and he doesn't care what happens to her
she can handle herself and a "relationship " with her requires NO EFFORT from him. she is there and willing. he doesn't think of the what "ifs" or a future with her
she is a gf who is "there" ...she meets his "needs" and does what needs to be done. also he truly doesn't care what SHE thinks of him. with liz he was worried that one day she wouldn't love him. she would see who he was and what he was capable of.
think jason was very insecure when it came to liz...it was all he wanted , but at the same time afraid of it.
afraid to fail and also afraid if something happened to her or the boys , he wouldn't survive

Liz was who he wants to make a life and family with ...sam is now a f*ck buddy who is "there"
nothing more imo

and sadly it just reflects negatively on his character
think fans want more for jason than what tiic do..,they do not see how jason needs to grow and mature as a character
same for liz

for me all this going back is too much and why I stopped watching
think if I had any faith it tiic at gh it would be different , but I do not

have no faith they are going to do "right" by any character anymore
