I also loved how they both were worried that they fooled around with Jack and Jen. Once again, you see how so NOT over each other they truly were. The rain scene was beautiful. They had a few gorgeous rain scenes actually, this one and when they were kissing earlier in the season when they first got together. Pacey/Andie gave me goosebumps. I loved the emotional honesty Pacey displayed. Pacey never opened up to anyone else in his entire life before this time period. He went there with Andie because he loved her and knew she was the real deal. He understood what was going on between them and he didn't want to mess it up for even a second. They were so perfect for each other. |

and someone says to me I ignored what happened on the show, then what exactly was PJ doing in season 4 hmmm? and said DJ fought, then what did PJ do? talking? I was watching some pacey/audrey in season 6, even though they were starting to get ruined too, its' still better than PJ.

With DJ, they fought because they were constantly questioning the definition of their dynamic. They wanted to be together romantically, they had this soulmate-like connection, they couldn't leave it and not for a lack of trying. They tried to move on with other people many times but it never worked out because it always came back to them. So DJ were fighting to be together essentially. Wit PJ, they were fighting because deep down they knew they were a horrible mess romantically the second they went sailing. Pacey's self esteem was gone, his future outlook was negative and dark, he didn't even know if he was going to graduate, and he knew Joey still loved Dawson and fought this over and over again. Joey tried to basically take in Pacey as her boy toy who looked pretty next to her. She never tried to help Pacey, she just felt comfortable around him because they had become good friends when she was aching big time over Dawson. They never balanced each other out, they were all over the place with each other. So PJ were fighting to break free from each other romantically... it finally happened at the prom, then in season 6 when Joey still rejected him, and in the series finale when Joey was still, no doubt, all about Dawson. I still can't imagine what kind of life they had in NYC together. I bet Pacey went back home to Capeside as much as possible while Joey had a successful job spending her nights calling Dawson. I liked Pacey/Audrey too but knew the writing was on the wall with them... Audrey would never be able to go anywhere near Joey as far as class/status so of course they turned her into a crazy drunk. Audrey was basically Andie 2.0. There was major potential for Pacey/Audrey and TPTB ruined it. Still wanted Pacey/Andie, always wanted Pacey/Andie but if not Andie, I would have been okay with Audrey. Don't even get me started on how poorly this show handled mental illness by the way. As a psychologist, I could have nightmares just thinking about it. Last edited by jediwands; 07-24-2017 at 10:16 AM |

All of it is ridiculous. Dawson completely grew up in season 4 while Pacey went back several steps. There is speculation that James went to the showrunner and asked that Dawson be written better in season 4. Even James knew how stupidly they wrote Dawson at the end of season 3 and he was fed up. TPTB had to destroy all of seasons 1/2 in order to create Pacey/Joey. What a joke. |

Wow, a lot to catch up on.
Going to post my thoughts about DJo after watching "To Be or Not to Be" last week. Quote:

Admittedly, I'm not the biggest Pacey fan in the world but it was different in s2. He matured and became more serious without losing his sense of humor. But with Andie, he saw something precious in her and he knew he'd be foolish not to hold onto that. And as Andie fell for him, so did I. I started to see what she saw and he blossomed as a character. It was so sad to see him fall so far after their breakup. Where did that loving, sensitive, confident guy go? Quote:
As far as fighting goes, every couple on this show fought. Joey was fairly defensive and fought with all the guys she dated. It's just what she fought with the guys about that made the difference. With Dawson, she was usually fighting herself, as she admitted in s2. __________________

So yes, I was actually happy Joey dated someone else then because you're right, it was scary and her feelings for Dawson were so intense. She needed to be ready. That's why she told Dawson they were the future, nothing was changing between them. More time was all that was needed. While I LOVED how they reunited at the end of season 2, a part of me wishes they would have stayed apart and then gotten back together for good at the end of season 3. Instead, we received a quick reunion, followed by a lame way to break them up (her dad) and then the stupid PL crap. I read that the intention was to put DJ and PA back together at the end of season 3. Of course things didn't go as planned. Quote:
They perfectly balanced each other out. They were so meant to be. Now let's ask why Pacey and Joey should have been together... hmmm... hmmm... hmmm. There's no valid reason. Not when we have a lengthy list of reasons why they were a disaster together! Quote:

Yes, the way Joey fought with others was different than with Dawson. Everything was always different with Dawson. Last edited by jediwands; 07-27-2017 at 05:23 PM |
