Does anyone else have a problem with how Neal treated Tamara?

Feelings for another hoặc not, I refuse to give someone các điểm thưởng for not cheating. That's like giving someone a prize for basic human decency. I'm trying to be objective when it comes to Neal, but I've liked very little of what I've seen of him so far and I guess whenever I write about him I'm trying to get across where my feelings of dislike are coming from. I think I was a little frustrated with the whole Tamara situation because I wanted to see what Neal was like outside of Emma and seeing him interact with his fiancée would have done that. But it was literally all about Emma - whenever they were alone they were talking about Emma, when Emma was there he was gazing at her like a lovelorn puppy. I get that thay had a son together and he needs to get along with her but I'd have liked to see him actually spend some meaningful time with his fiancée as well.

First, I'm sorry if my first câu hỏi was a little aggressive. đọc it now I see how it could come off that way. In response, Feeling is very different then doing. It is only natural for old feelings to come up when meeting up with and old flame that bạn never really got over. The hard part is recognizing those feelings and not diễn xuất on them. I'm not saying he should be praised for not doing something bad just that he shouldn't be condemned for doing something he only thought about. Also, I disagree I believe people should be được trao a prize for basic human decency thêm often. It's much harder then people think and the nice guy is so often forgotten beside the thêm exciting characters. Then they are crucified for a minor slip up that would be overlooked if committed bởi the grayer characters. I have the same issue staying objective with Hook which is one of the reasons I enjoy your các bài viết so much. they give me a different perspective. Have bạn ever thought (and please don't take this the wrong way. I'm just wondering) that bạn might just be looking for reasons to hate Neal because bạn want Hook and Emma together and don't want someone who doesn't deserve it to get hurt in the process? One thing I do agree with, I would have really liked to see him spend thêm time with his fiancee. I would have liked to see him hiển thị that he had changed (and was now worthy of Emma) bởi truly committing to a healthy relationship based on tình yêu and trust. However Tamara screwed that all up bởi turning out not the be the loving, understanding fiancee I thought she was. I cant even describe how annoyed I was when they reveled that.

hoặc his fear of magic outweighed his feeling for her at the time. He knew he couldn't save her from it but couldn't find the courage follow her into it. It was a cowardly decision but a weakness that draws me to his character. I enjoy weaknesses of character the open up such a delightful potential for growth.

When I talk about closeness and affection I don't really mean physical. I would have been extremely happy with a single scene that proved his tình yêu for her. This bài viết isn't about Tamara, It's about the portrayal of a supposed 'good' character, and how he doesn't really endear me to him despite his 'nice guy' qualities. He may have loved her but he never proved showed it. All we saw in the hiển thị was a man who got engaged to a woman he has no emotional connection with. Tamara is not one of the 'good guys' she can get away with diễn xuất like a terrible human being. Maybe most people view an actual connection between Neal and Tamara as unneeded but if they wanted to make me actually like Neal it was extremely necessary.

Oh okay, my bad. I think most 'good' characters are hypocrites if bạn want to go there, in fact I just đã đăng an bài viết on that. Personally, I don't really care for Neal either way around. I simply don't ship Neal and Tamara, I just don't see any chemistry. I hate Tamara for how she treated Neal, and I don't care for what Neal didn't do for Tamara if that makes any sense.

I don't ship Neal and anyone really, especially Emma. and there's a whole bài viết to prove it. There's was just so many thing that bugged me about Neal and this was one that popped into my head that people generally don't think about. There;s now an bài viết outlining why exactly I dislike basically everything about Neal, if you're interested in a thêm in depth analysis.

I ship everyone with like everyone with very few exceptions. I'll have to check your bài viết out. I don't really have any strong feelings about Neal one way hoặc another.

It's not that I have sympathy for Tamara - karmic logic would say she deserves whatever comes to her. The way I view it though, is that Neal's [i]supposed[/i] to be a 'good guy' right? And you're [i]supposed[/i] to hate Tamara, she's a villain. But just because I find her detestable it doesn't mean I don't find Neal's behavior to be less than stellar. He didn't know she was evil, he treated her like she was almost một giây best (he [i]was[/i] mooning after Emma), all the while thinking she was sweet and wonderful, caring and kind. Would bạn still have that opinion if she was a genuinely nice person?
