Finnegan, I see what your getting at. I'm not entirely sure which thread would be the correct place to discuss that topic, but its probably not this one. Your talking about Dawson's entire character arc-- that the point of the entire show was the death of childhood fantasies. Because that's what growing up requires. This thread is a place for us to discuss why we don't think DJo worked as a couple and the reasons they brought out the absolute worst in each other. Which they did, repeatedly.
Yes, the show was about growing up. Dawson was a dreamer and he looked at the world through rose-colored glasses. His fantasy was not what I had a problem with. I had a problem with his behavior towards Joey, in relation to that fantasy. So, while I can somewhat empathize with his situation, I do not sympathize with him as a character. At all.
