I know some people are saying "Oh Abby did something wrong but Sami should direct her anger at E.J."
Here’s how I see it…. if your man cheats on you with a random stranger then you take your anger out on him – NOT on her. She doesn’t know… doesn’t know about you and likely was never told there even was a you.
In this instance Abby KNEW full well about Sami. Yes – EJ cheated on Sami. And on some level you can argue that Abby is single so she can do whatever she wants. But Abby and Sami were friendly (lets face it – they were not friends – just friendly.) So it makes her EQUALLY as guilty as EJ. Not more. Not less. EQUAL!!! This truly defines the old saying "it takes two to tango."
PLUS – Abby is this quote "good girl" who can do no wrong. I mean hello – she IS a Horton right? And as Sami pointed out – this is a pattern. E.J. doing what he did is not at all shocking. Abby doing it – more shocking BUT in line with her BS with Austin (thus resulting in a pattern.)
I’m sorry – those of you giving Abby less suffering b/c E.J. deserves more of Sami’s wrath are wrong. They both desrve to feel Sami’s destruction!!!
August 1, 2014 at 9:33 pm #44853PattiParticipantand no one will change my mind about that with the b/s with E.J. is the older, more powerful, shoulda’ known better, yada yada yada crap. They both are equally guilty, as charged.
August 1, 2014 at 10:56 pm #44857dvalParticipantI completely agree that if she was just some random girl he had sex with it would be one thing but not with somebody who knows you and him and your family. She is just as bad as him.
August 2, 2014 at 12:43 pm #44860MKParticipantThanks for telling me that I am WRONG in my OPINION since I am one of those that thinks EJ should suffer more. I thought this board was about giving one’ s opinion on this fictional show with fictional characters. Just because you think one way does not make someone else wrong in their thinking.
I am a bit hesitant now to give my differing opinion of this whole Sami thing because people take it way too seriously to the point of getting angry and making those of us (me) feel uncomfortable in posting, God forbid, anything that goes against Sami’s revenge plan. I am nothing but respectful to everybody here.
August 2, 2014 at 12:59 pm #44861PattiParticipantjust because someone disagrees with you or how you think about a certain storyline doesn’t mean you don’t have any right to discuss it; however, that being said, it also doesn’t mean that someone who’s disagreeing doesn’t have the right to express their pov either. You read it, post your own view about it, and move on. That’s the way I take it anyway. No one should hold back from posting their view because they feel they will be called out for it. Message boards are meant to express differing opinions.
August 2, 2014 at 2:16 pm #44863justwonderingParticipantTake heart MK. There are plenty of board members who agree with you. No one should silence you because you have a right to your opinion as much as anyone else. I happen to agree with you that EJ is guiltly and should face more severe punishment. First, EJ was the one in the "commited" relationship. Second, (although some don’t accept this as legitimate) he is older, more wordly, more powerful and more manipulative than Abigal. Third, he is also keeping the "relationhip" going by constantly meeting Abigial and telling her that she is good and what they did was
Quotes are from Days Cafe recap:
"Wot they did was not as awful as she seems to believe. Abigail believes it was wrong! EJ agrees they lacked judgment and it was not moralistic," and " He praises the glum girl for her beauty and integrity and insists her hurt will pass. "
He is still "playing" her in my mind. So I still feel that EJ isdoing all in his power to to be in control. I am not saying that Abigail doesn’t have any resposnibility in all of this. She certainly agreed to the situation and has said so. I thought she did a good job in confronting Sami and say —-Hey enough! I think Sami is going to find out that revenge can give you an empty space.
It appears that the PTB are going to have Sami and EJ end up together. That would not be the ending I would write! I guess Sami never learns. She will do all in her power to ruin Abigail and then trake EJ back! Doesn’t compute with me.
August 2, 2014 at 2:52 pm #44864rngatorParticipantwith you.
August 2, 2014 at 2:59 pm #44865MKParticipantNo I am not taking it too personally. I do not like whe somebody says whoever does not feel the same they do is wrong. I like differing opinions as it makes things exciting but I do not like to be told I am wrong for having a differing opinion. That goes beyond stating an opinion. That is attacking somebody in my opinion. Now I am moving on.
August 2, 2014 at 2:59 pm #44866TFlo1018ParticipantPerhaps you took my "you are wrong" too literally.
By me saying "you are wrong" means "I disagree with you and here’s why."
Perhaps in the context of a board it comes across a certain way. That’s why I said in the original thread "here’s how I see it" meaning – this is my opinion of it.
It wasn’t me telling you that you were wrong – it was me saying I am right. Kidding LOL…
Nah – I didn’t mean it so literally. I’m a NYer – what can i say
August 2, 2014 at 4:27 pm #44869MKParticipantThanks for that! I really appreciate it.
August 2, 2014 at 7:57 pm #44870TFlo1018ParticipantBut I still hate Abby – HA HA HA
August 3, 2014 at 2:24 am #44872dvalParticipantno matter if someone else agrees or disagrees with you. As much as you don’t like people saying they don’t think you are right I don’t like being made to feel that if I disagree with you I can’t say so because it will hurt your feelings. if you can disagree with me I can disagree with you and neither one of us should take it personally. And I think when it comes to reading input on this board you have to take everything with a grain of salt because a lot of it is tongue in cheek, IMO and not a personal attack.
August 3, 2014 at 3:06 am #44874TFlo1018ParticipantWell said
August 4, 2014 at 2:27 pm #44879MKParticipantI’m not saying someone can’t disagree with me. I don’t take that personally at all. It’s fun when people have different opinions. It would be really boring if we all agreed on every storyline all the time! LOL That wasn’t the point. My point was that it’s okay to disagree with someone but it’s quite another to tell them they are wrong in their opinion. And differing opinions make reading the posts all the more exciting! But I know, it’s only words and nothing should be taken seriously on this board since it’s all just fun. But I am over and done with this now and just want to enjoy reading/commenting on all the different posts.
August 4, 2014 at 8:16 pm #44880loritrollParticipantI can’t for the life of me understand why everyone has taken up arms for Abby! I’ve not heard one person (other than Sami) say that she did a terrible thing. They’re coddling her and feeling bad for her and telling her she’s being so strong through this. Excuse me. She chased him down! She knew that Sami loved him to death, that they had a family. Heck, she took care of their children, and yet, continued to seek him out at his office, his shower, a laundry room, so they could continue their affair. She deserves some condemnation.
I’ve not heard Abby once take full responsibility for what she’s done and how she’s affected their family. She’s gotten in Sami’s face. She’s played the victim card. She’s even asked EJ if he wanted to get back together. But, has she really taken accountability for what she did? I’m all about making EJ suffer, but no more or less than Abby. I loved that Sami asked JJ today if he really knew how that story played out. I bet if people really knew how she pursued EJ, their minds might change a bit!
