Good Morning Ladies. I don't post very often, but I Loved this post on DD this morning and thought I'd share.


Okay. This is where GH becomes a public menace. Do you all truly believe that "soulmates" always agree and never ever irritate each other? Is this the standard you plan to apply to your lives? Because JaSam's "relationship" is a reeking platter of pasture pastry. Sam may "support" Jason in the style of the very best Roman handmaiden, but when Sam had the MOST important job of her fledgling business ever, Jason crooked his finger and had her follow him away from HER responsibilities for HIS convenience. Since then she has fetched one hell of a lot of coffee and delivered sex on demand (with no demands whatsoever on her part)but done precious little work on that business Jason had her abandon at a critical moment.

Every beerswilling asshole dreams of a woman like Sam. "Whatever you want, dear" and no nagging, no complaining. Never asks him for a dime. Never has to give her a present that costs much. Yeah. Heaven. No challenge of any kind whatsoever. Not one thing he has to suck up and change for HER sake. She just accepts HIM. And he, so graciously, accepts her acceptance. What a guy.

Would you let your best friend date Jason Morgan?


Wow. Someone at DD with a brain. I'm sure this post was spun by that fan base to try to prove that she isn't a doormat. She is his equal. She isn't disregarded. She is faithfully accepting. She isn't used for sex. She is his soft place to fall.

They are like Frons. Will never admit they are wrong. They see how little self-respect she has. They KNOW if Jason truly loved their girl then he would not be so willing to have her touched by his world. He showed no concern for the risk she took when pretending to be his wife so she could service him in JAIL. The depth of feeling they THINK is there on Jason's part is just something they have deluded themselves into thinking exists. It is not there. Honestly, he's just not that into her. He's more into not being alone and not having to worry about the other person.  She's not his soft place. She's a distraction and a convenience. If he can't have the one he loves then he'll "love" the one he is with.
ITA.

I have been re-reading JT's The Beginning of the End.  I read this yesterday and thought it summed up how Jason feels about Elizabeth and her in his life:

It wasn’t right. It wasn’t what she deserved. It sure as hell wasn’t what she stood for, and he’d be damned if he’d be the one to do that to her.

It was why things were so much easier with Sam. She knew this life. She’d been raised in it, around it. She knew cons and criminals and the dangers. She was tough enough to withstand them, hard enough to survive them. Jason didn’t want to see Elizabeth hardened and cynical. He didn’t want to see her scarred by the life or to look in her eyes and see…. Jason studied her, found himself drawn into her eyes, pulled in by the grief and the fear and the new understanding… That, he realized. He never wanted to see that in her. Never wanted to know – absolutely know and feel it like a weight on his heart – that it had left its mark on her.


MISSMAY, wonderful video!
