Does anybody else have thoughts on this?  10/25/2005 9:25 PM    cinnimon97 3561 posts Yeah, but you have to remember what Joey said to Dawson in the finale of Season 2........ I mean she said some pretty rotten things to him... The had no contact throughout that summer... He had no idea what he was coming home to......... Dawson did love Joey, that is y he didn't sleep with her in Season 3!! It in no way shows that he really didn't love her..............  10/25/2005 10:19 PM    DC4EVAB 924 posts i agree with pj sailin on this one. even joey says at some pint that she is scared he only says he loves her cos he is frightened of losing his safty net.  10/26/2005 3:39 AM    slyn11 1797 posts Yep even Joey knew it. Dawson didn't love her in that passionate way. She was just his constant. All that talk of romance and soulmating just confused their dynamic - they were friends. I think Joey realized this in season 2 when she broke up with Dawson for the first time. I think it was more than just her need to find herself. I think she also was sort of let down by the reality of a relationship with Dawson, after years of fantascizing about him. I think they lacked passion.  10/26/2005 3:41 AM    cinnimon97 3561 posts FRIENDS DON'T SLEEP TOGETHER :lol: :lol: :lol:  Page 1 of 8 123...8Next    Previous   Next     Forum  Discussions  Dawson's Creek  Out with the Old, In with the new
