ParticipantMillie, this honestly has NOTHING to do with Baelfire. It has 112000% to do with how they may (potentially) be portraying abuse and manipulation as “romantic.” IT IS NOT OKAY and I am PRAYING that the show comes down on that side of the story on Sunday night. Because I just can’t deal with my anger if they don’t.

KeymasterThey must seriously hate Neal/Baelfire.
This has nothing to do with Neal though.
It’s the idea that if you can slowly but surely wear away a woman’s right to say NO NOT INTERESTED simply by being charming and good looking because she’s bound to “wise up soon enough” and say YES.It’s abhorrent.
If they go CS then don’t make it because “Emma caved!” That’s a HORRIBLE thing to perpetuate on TV

ParticipantThere is something incredibly counter intuitive about writers hating one of the few characters original to their own mythology.
"Death cannot stop true love...it can only delay it awhile."

Participantsome scenarios about what MRJ thinks about S3B
Like to think this was what MRJ said to this persons about S3B and i like to think was him that asked out to do other things.
And this is in the case he was written off, what i think he is saying to adam and eddie after seing S3B
And now what he thinks in general, about S3B and Adam and Eddie

ParticipantI mean look how they treat the character. They never really gave Neal/Baelfire story and development he deserves, they killed him without much built up and it sometimes felt like they killed him off just to increase the chance for Emma to end with Hook, they think it is okay for Hook to end up with his mother and his love, they mentioned him as little as possible him after he died and they downplayed his moments and relationship with Emma. To me, it looks like they don’t like the character that much.
We will meet again, in another life...

KeymasterI honestly feel close to tears.
I am so ANGRY at the kind of message they are sending with this utter CRAP.
NO MEANS NO.
It doesn’t pursue until the girl gives in!I just am so angry now

ParticipantPlease. Please please please tell me this is NOT the story.
Guy 1 –
Is admittedly in love with girl, girl is admittedly in love with him. Guy and girl have similar concepts of future hopes and wishes. Guy makes two errors – one self-sacrifice out of the best intentions, second an inaction out of fear. Guy apologies for errors, states greatest regrets of life, makes it clear he still loves her, would like a relationship. Is blatantly honest about history and past and states that girl has every right to feel whatever and however she feels (even if it is hurtful to him.) Offers up a non-threatening option to commence relationship and states he will back off if she is not interested. Follows through. Sacrifices self on multiple occasions for girl. Also, listens to girl, makes girl laugh and is one of only TWO people girl has ever stated she loved in whole life.
Guy 2 –
States he is in love with girl. Girl does not reciprocate. Has made countless errors – including lying to girl, misleading girl, deceiving girl, omitting truths and physically endangering/harming girl on more than one occasion. NEVER APOLOGIZES for any of it. Guy states he is interested and would like a relationship. Girl is lukewarm. Guy states he WILL have her and continues to pursue her despite increasingly clear rejections. Guy performs “heroic” deeds for express purpose of looking good in girl’s eyes. Has vastly different idea of life and future than girl, tries to argue with girl about what she wants for her future. Is surprised to see girl smile, and pouts like a toddler when girl does not come running at his beck and call.
PLEASE for the love of all that is good and left in humanity, PLEASE tell me this show is going to illustrate for us that Guy 1 is the guy we should all be looking for to complete our fairy tale.
That is what they have shown so far. Show, stupid show, DO NOT do a 180 on us here. Please FOR THE LOVE follow through on what you have spent nearly three seasons setting up.
Cause this story needs some mending & a better happy ending...

ParticipantYowza! A&E are really piled deep in manure. I honestly don’t know what they’re thinking! They wrote such beautiful love stories in S1 and on OUAT in WL and now Emma gets stuck with the raw end of the deal again?

If they really wanted to go full on CS since last summer, then fine, but don’t let it be Emma caving in to a man who stalks her, lies to her, cheats, and murders. Emma being cajoled and pestered by Hook until she gives in is the very opposite of romantic. It’s deeply disturbing.
"That’s how you know you’ve really got a home. When you leave it, there’s this feeling that you can’t shake. You just miss it." Neal Cassidy

KeymasterI’m honestly crying right now. I have a lot of triggers with this issues and the idea that Emma is just asking for it all just….i can’t.
