I just want to steer us back to the topic of the Thread which is the True Love episode.

I wish Joey had been strong enough right from the beginning to face Dawson about her feelings for Pacey because by the time we got to True Love, Joey was just going through the motions of being Dawson's friend and that really wasn't fair to Dawson. I know he's the one that gave her the ultimatum, but they should have talked it out the way Pacey and Joey talked things out. It would have helped them both in the long run.
