Isn't that what they did with her and Brady? At least in the 90's there was a logical progress to her turning into that woman, and it was entertaining. She was even more pathetic when she returned since she got into the same pattern with Brady, who happened to have once been a boy she mothered, and so she apparently did not grow as a character off screen.
The difference was Brady loved her, John didn't. So this time it was worth the fight :D . And IMO she wasn't pathetic and desperate at all. The problem is that Brady didn't even know her. He believed she was someone else entirely. Meanwhile, the only thing she liked about him was how dumb he was. She fell for him because he fell for her lies. That was the basis for their relationship. Much like current thrady.
And I'm not sure it gets much more pathetic desperate than raping a priest.

I thought she fell for him because he was protective, caring and understanding. :D Guessing from what she said to Stefano and EJ she didn't think he was dumb. (The audience did)
What I liked in Bristen was their emotional connection. Every time he was upset or grumpy she always noticed it and vice versa. They also had a strong non-verbal connection in their scenes (it's chemistry, I think), unlike Thrady, which made their relationship more believable, despite the obvious fact that their relationship "wasn't right".
Raping a priest was vile not pathetic IMO.

Idk how understanding a person can be when they literally don't understand what's going on lol.
I don't think too highly of Brady. I want to. But man...
Fwiw, I also don't agree that John didn't love her before. He didn't love her as much as he loved Marlena, but I do think he loved her. :shrug:

He said something like the loved the person she originally was. The thing is like you said he just loved Marlena more.

It's paculiar, considering their storyline, that Patricia Barry died on Bill and Susan's anniversary. I think she died yesterday but close enough. It's all making me a little sentimental and wishing I could see that story again.
To add to that, I'm currently watching the reruns of the old soap The Doctors and they've reached the same week in 1972 that Doug and Addie eloped!

The thing is like you said he just loved Marlena more. Which is why I liked Bristen. Kristen has never been a man's first choice. Even when John first pursued her, it was only because Marlena was unavailable. Sure he loved her on a certain level, but she was never first in his heart. Brady, dumb as he was, made it clear that she was who he wanted. There was never anyone else in the back of his mind. Even after the first failed wedding, he went back to her. So he knew who she was, and still chose her.

Fwiw, I also don't agree that John didn't love her before. He didn't love her as much as he loved Marlena, but I do think he loved her. :shrug: How I see it, John loved her at first for quite a while and very agressively pursued her (at least that's how I saw it), then he clearly noticed his feelings for Marlena were stronger. He should have told the truth to Kristen and left her. I think it was his biggest mistake that he kept living and sleeping with her. His love was a lie. She must have felt betrayed. Why she kept holding onto him knowing all of this is beyond my comprehension, that's why I didn't like her back then that much.
Re: Brady. From the perspective of empathy I totally can get how their feelings developed. I mean if someone treated me like Brady treated Kristen, I think I'd probably fall for that person, too :blulaugh: - flaws or not LOL. Not saying their love story was perfect but it was quite ok for the 2010s (?).

And the second time, he still thought she had changed. That was his mantra.

Just the story they were in was better overall.
Days has really done a number on me the last several years. Until about 2008 I wasn't particularly opposed to any pairings. Now I don't think I like any lol.

I was wondering back then and still do, whether John was playing Kristen in the nu-secret room (in 2013) when he apologized for not telling the truth back then or it was meant as a serious apology.

Y'all, Ari is still trending on Facebook 5 days later.
There was an article published a couple of days ago, written by Heather McDonald, which has gotten a lot of press. She bashes feminists for complaining that women are acting the victim because she feels they are asking for it. She blames AZ for the way she is dressed in the Trump video. I had a long car ride this morning and listened to an interview with her. I was yelling back at the radio that she was dressed as Nicole in the leaked video. And even if that was her own clothing, let's be honest, how many women would love to have AZ's legs? I'll admit it; I would. Heather McDonald equates dressing nicely, wearing make-up among other things with women asking for it.
Sorry to be continuing this conversation, but very few reports I've heard/seen since last week mention AZ. Most just refer to her as some random soap actress.
Mods, go ahead and delete if this is inappropriate.

People can control their behavior.
