     why in the world are Sami and Adrienne having such an in-depth conversation about the love life of their sons? Seems a little over-the-top to me. If they weren’t a gay couple, would the mother’s be having this discussion? Or does the gay part even matter? Seems nosier than usual, even for Sami. 

    And something about Nick is giving me the heebie-jeebies. He scares me.

     I don’t think it would matter. DAys have always had toomany people butting into other’s lives. The "trust me" theme has always led to couples breaking up cause someone doesn’t tell the truth and honesty is so important in every relationship.

    What gets me is how invested Rafe, Sami and EJ are in Will/Gabby situation. It is not Rafe and Sami’s decision to make. it is up to Will and Gabby. However, it really gets me how Sami can be so rightous especially cause she lied to everyone about who Will’s dad was. Then she lied about Sydney’s father. IZ had to agree with what rafe said to her about it always being about her!!

     This storyline is obviously causing Sami to revisit things she said and did. I almost think it would be more interesting to have Will and Gabbi try to make it work. And Will to try to stay away from Sonny…I don’t know though. There is just going to be a lot of Sami/Austin/Lucas in the  Gabbi/Will/Nick story. Maybe too  much for me to care? I’m hoping Nick will keep things stirred up some…he REALLY creeps me out!!

    I’m just so glad that Rafe seems to finally see Sami for what she is.  I hope he stays away from her for good.

    is that there seems to be an awful lot of gaps left open here. Rafe thinks Will never wanted anything to do with the baby and wanted Gabi to have an abortion which is far from the truth, she made that decision on her own and never seems to reveal that little tidbit. Hence Rafe thinks Will used Gabi.

    Sami seems to think Gabi (much like herself) tried to keep Will from his child, which is also not true. That was all Nick’s doing and nobody reveals that little tidbit either. Hence Sami thinks she is not wrong.

    and finally Nick, what can I say about Nick? He is too creepy for words right now and Gabi better open her mouth and tell him to lay off Will if she knows what is good for her and her baby. How dare he think that Will could just give up his rights as a parent? No matter how he plays this out in his head, as long as he lives in Salem he cannot hide from the child that it’s father is a gay man. EVERYONE knows Nick, so get over it and let things go. Marry Gabi, take care of the baby if that is what you want and let Will be a part of the baby’s life, which is his right.

    I coud have just thrown things at the TV today. Rafe is being far too pompous for my liking right now, Nick is too creepy, Sami is reliving her past mistakes and, gulp, nobody but EJ is understanding her and Gabi is being too wishy-washy. It’s not like she’s 15 or 16 years old. Grow up a little bit will you girl, PLEASE, and start taking some control over your situation instead of waiting for Nick to handle it for you.

    right down to the very last word in the very last line.

    and who was it back when he was getting out of prison that said he wouldn’t change? They were right. I wasn’t on board with this character returning but he’s playing the controller so well he’s keeping things interesting.

     How old is Gabi? I am not sure but even thought she lives on her own, she seems very naive to me. I think that she was shocked when she learned she was pregnant, especially since she knew that Will was NOT in a position to provide a life for her. She loved Nick and was sure he would leave her, so when he was willing to step up to help her, she jumped at the chance. Her ethnic background would not allow her to bring up the child alone. She knew her mother and brother would disapprove of the situation. I think that in the heat of the moment, Gabi wanted a hero and Nick stepped up, so she jumped at the chance to make things easier. Let’s face it, everyone knows Will is gay, so it doesn’t look to good for her to have been with him. 

    She wanted to make things easier and Nick was willing to help. I really don’t fault her of that.

    And I’m think she is beginning to see some of Nick’s flaws but won’t acknowledge them because she doesn’t want to lose the security she has with him.  This is a very complex situation and I don’t see a good way to get everybody out of it in a win-win.  Just ain’t gonna happen.

    depending on how they take Gabi’s character. They’ll either have her stand up and leave Nick when she realizes what a sleaze he is, or she’ll go the other way. I’m picturing her becoming kind of like a Mob wife. She knows her husband is doing horrible things and she ignores it and uses his bad guy persona when she wants something. But she goes to church a lot to pray for his soul.

    is how Gabi was/is so desperate to have a guy (a common theme on Days!) and how she questioned herself in the Will situation and of course the lengths she went in the whole Melanie mess. Plus her more conservative upbringing and Rafe’s over protectiveness have made her a perfect candidate for Nick’s controlling nature.

    but Nick is in control because Gabi is allowing Nick to be in control.  Nick is beginning to show tendencies leaning heavily toward emotional abuse where Gabi is concerned.  He always finds a way to talk himself out of it, but he is getting darker and darker with Gabi.  I’m very happy to see Will start standing up to him, because Gabi, although she claims she loves Will as her best friend, is allowing Nick to be as verbally abusive with Will as he is becoming emotionally abusive to Gabi.  I I have a feeling we are going to see a whole new possibility here where Nick is concerned, which will show him getting more and more obsessive with Gabi and trying to take control of their situation, while refusing to allow Gabi to have anything to say about it —- so long as he gets what he wants.  I think we have some good stuff coming our way, but I don’t think we’ve even seen the tip of this iceberg with Nick yet.  And Gabi, because she truly loves Nick, will allow it to continue — we may be looking at a domestic abuse storyline down the road between Nick and Gabi.  I don’t think he will intentionally hurt her physically, but this character actually sent a chill down my spine yesterday when Will asked him if he was insane, and Nick responded "don’t ever say that to me again…ever."  It’s obvious to me that since his mother was mentally disturbed, plus we still have not been made aware of his back-story in prison, we have yet to see where the writers are going with this storyline.  I do love the fact, however, that the umbrella effect it’s having on so many other lives in Salem is very very good right now, and is showing the interaction between characters we are not used to see working together.  I’m getting more and more into it now!

    ……………and why is Will and Sonny’s relationship any of Adrienne’s and Sammi’s business.  Aren’t they old enough to make their own decisions and mistakes (if that’s what their relationship turns out to be


    which I don’t think it is.)
