True Love (AKA the one that ruins almost everyone's lives) because it did ruin my life! I need this one to be gone. Crossed out. Over. *shivers*

Lucas William · 06-04-2010, 02:32 AM

"True Love" I will go with Kimberly I hate true love I don't even like that term anymore after DC wrecked it for me.

Quote:

Joey: I don't want to fight either, Dawson. I'm sorry. If we're going to have an honest relationship, Dawson, there's something you should know. I broke things off with Pacey, not entirely, but a large part because I didn't want to lose you. I may have lived across the creek, but it was only when I was rowing in this direction that I actually felt like I was rowing home. When you're so much of my life, Dawson, I mean… Your house is my house and your family is my family, and there's not a single significant event I've experienced that you haven't experienced with me. And… I was so afraid of losing that. But, if that wasn't the choice… and if I thought there was a chance that you would forgive me, I may have chosen differently. And you deserve to know that.

^^ This scene is pretty much Joey telling Dawson she wants to be with Pacey in a weird way that feels like she is trying to make Dawson feel guilty. I don't know I just don't like it.

Quote:

Dawson: You know, I used to be able to look into your eyes and know everything you were thinking. These days, I haven't a clue.

Joey: I was thinking about this summer. How much there's going to be today. I mean, we didn't get a chance to spend last summer together, you and I. We're gonna have a lot to catch up on. You know, there'll be water skiing with your dad and fourth of July on Wildock island. And we could even go into Boston for a week. That would be fun.

Dawson: Yeah.

^^ Your not alone Dawson we don't know that Joey ether she sure isn't the one we fell in love with in season 1

^^ I would much rather see Dawson dance with this Joey.

Quote:

Dawson: Last year you had the opportunity to go to Paris to study, because of me you didn't.

Joey: Dawson, that wasn't your fault.

Dawson: Yes it was my fault cause I should have made you go. But I was selfish and I didn't want you to go. I wanted you to stay here with me. And I refuse to make that mistake again.

Joey: Well, Dawson, what if it's my choice? I mean, what if I want to stay.

Dawson: Joey, come on. Even I can see it. Pacey is this year's Paris. And this time you have to go. You have to see for yourself. I can stand here and tell you that it's a colossal mistake and that all roads lead back to me, but that's not going to make any bit of difference. Words and speechs sound great, but they don't add up to anything. All that matters right now is what you want.

Joey: I don't even know what I want, Dawson.

Dawson: Yes you do. You want him. (Joey begins to cry) You want him like I want you. You love him like I love you. The only difference is, he loves you back the same way. And you deserve that, okay? And I'm not going to be the one who stands in the way of you getting there. You're free. Do can do whatever you want.

Joey: But, Dawson, I want us to still be friends and I want to know that you don't hate me…

Dawson: They're only words, Joey. Just words. Cause after you're done dispensing your pleasantries here you're gonna turn around and you're gonna walk away from. Aren't you?

Joey: I have to, otherwise I'll never know.

Dawson: Just go.

Joey: Dawson…

Dawson: Joey, go! I'm telling you, before I take it all back, alright, just go.

Yeah this scene sucks I'm glad Dawson told Joey to go because he knew she wanted to but did the writers really need to add all that crap where Dawson says himself that he is selfish and didn't force Joey to go to Paris in season 1 we all no that he didn't ever hold Joey back from anything but this scene forever makes people say Dawson is selfish and thinks that he owns Joey.

Why would the writers destroy the character of Dawson like that ? and especially when he is the title character.

I know I said it before but season 1 and 2 is the same year and is just a year apart from this so how can Joey want Dawson so much then and here a year later want Pacey when she hated him a year ago? I hate to think people change that much in one year.

dcluv · 06-04-2010, 10:59 AM

Makes me sick just reading that. I wish I didn't. I'm not even going to comment even though there's stuff I could say. It can all be summed up as not making sense.

VOTE PEOPLE NOW!! GET THIS OFF!! *shudders*

VaNderBeEkFreAk · 06-04-2010, 11:59 AM

Vote tally:

Twu Wuw: 3

We need more votes!

As a side note, I despise the line from Joey about how she'd have chosen differently if she knew she wasn't going to lose Dawson

dcluv · 06-07-2010, 03:54 PM

I hate that line too, Jen.

^^ Yeah me too.

Even aside from D/Jo did anyone else think it was so completely unlike Joey to run off with a guy and leave her sister alone to take care of Alexander and run the new B and B all by herself.

Look at the difference in Joey from these two episodes a season apart.

3X23 - TRUE LOVE

Quote:

Joey: Pacey! Pacey! Pacey! Pacey! (she climbs aboard the boat and looks inside) Pace? Pacey!

Pacey: (coming from around the other side of the pier with a drink) You want something, Jo?

Joey: I want to talk to you!

Pacey: No, nope. It's a bit late for this now. I'm leaving, you can't stop me, so don't even try.

Joey: No, that's not why I'm here.

Pacey: (climbs aboard True Love) So why are you here? Maybe you want to rub it in a little bit, huh? (he jumps off the boat and unties it from the dock)

Joey: Look, I don't want to stop you, Pacey. And I don't want to stop Dawson, and I don't want to be stopped. Not by either of you, not by anyone. See, I mean, that's what this whole year's been about. We've been trying to stop each other from moving on and from growing up. But not you. You're different. And you've challenged me every step of the way and you've been there every step of the way.

Pacey: (walking past her) Jo, departure time is in T-minus 30 seconds, so if there's a point, I suggest you get to it. (he climbs back aboard. Joey thinks for a second, then turns around)

Joey: I think I'm in love with you.

Pacey: (with his back towards Joey) You think or you know?

Joey: I know. (Pacey turns to look at Joey) I've known it since the moment you kissed me and maybe even before that. As scary as it is, I don't want to deny it anymore, Pacey. I don't want to run from it and I don't want to let it run from me.

Pacey: So… what are we going to do here, Jo?

Joey: I want to come with you.

Pacey: What? Are you crazy?

Joey: I want to stop standing still, I want to move forward, I want to come with you.

Pacey: What about Bessie and the B&B? They need you.

Joey: Not as much as I need you, Pacey.

2X03 - ALTERNATE LIFESTYLES

Quote:

Joey: I was beginning to think you skipped town on me.

Bessie: Yeah I was up all night cleaning. Look, Joey. Things aren't working out for you and the Icehouse so you're fired.

Joey: Fired?

Bessie: I just don't think you should be working there anymore.

Joey: You can't fire me.

Bessie: Yes I can, and I am.

Joey: I know what you're doing Bessie. I couldn't sleep last night I felt so bad. What I said, I didn't mean.

Bessie: Yes, you did. You were right. I'm in way over my head, but these problems are not yours. I don't want to be the one robbing you of your childhood, the fun of being young. Not burdened by all my messes. It's not fair. It's not fair to you and I'm sorry.

Joey: Bessie, these are my problems because you and I are a team, you know? And you can't fire me because I'm not going anywhere and I won't be fired. And I love you. And Alexander. And I don't ever want you to feel like you're in this alone.

Bessie: Yeah but you're my little sister. I'm supposed to be taking care of you.

Joey: You do. You do take care of me, Bessie.

Bessie: You know, one day I'll get it together and you'll be proud of me.

Joey: I am proud of you, Bessie. I mean, this assignment helped me understand how much you have to deal with and how much stress you are under. I think you're amazing.

Bessie: Yeah?

Joey: Yeah.

Well Joey did in true Love exactly what she said she didn't ever want to do because I'm sure Bessie was feeling like she was in it alone when Joey left her hanging by running off with Pacey.

The new writers didn't know the characters at all.

I gotta say something about this line from "True Love"

3X23 - TRUE LOVE

Quote:

Joey: I know. (Pacey turns to look at Joey) I've known it since the moment you kissed me and maybe even before that. As scary as it is, I don't want to deny it anymore, Pacey. I don't want to run from it and I don't want to let it run from me.

^^ So how or when was Joey running from Pacey when here she says she not going to run from him and she runs off with him. Yeah Joey was always running from her feelings for Pacey
