Additional Comments: I liked the scene with Sami & EJ at Sydney's gravesite. It was so calm and peaceful. The scene was perfect for them. I know everyone hates EJ, but I still think they should be together.

I just can't figure out why people like EJ. If he were shorter and didn't have a British accent, would everyone love him so much? There is just nothing redemptive about his character to me. He never shows remorse, or even admits he is wrong, and he only thinks about himself and his own feelings. He may not be totally evil, but he is totally narcissistic.

Sami, on the other hand, has at least expressed regrets over her mistakes, and although she is still impulsive and can be annoying, I think she is at least trying to do the right thing. I don't care how many kids they share; there is just nothing healthy about their relationship, and he is too cruel and controlling with women. I don't find his behavior at all romantic. EJ is not capable of real love.

Even if there were no Rafe and Sami and Lucas don't find their way back to each other, I STILL would rather she be alone, then with EJ.

Ellen, I think you're right. I would rather see Sami alone than with EJ. We differ in that if it were between Rafe and EJ, I put her with EJ but there would have to be major, MAJOR character changes in his character. It's just really bad the way things have gone the last 2 yrs I think.

EJ may be all of the above but he is sexy as hell and I'd use him if I could! LOL! ;-) Kat

I'm in an even smaller minority; I still want Sami with Lucas. I just don't think EJ has any business raising kids given his actions of the past, and Sami should recognize EJ as the criminal that he is.

It looks like they're trying to push Sami with Rafe as a couple. Even though I do not want Sami with EJ, it would make more sense given that they share Johnny and will soon share Sydney. I don't know....maybe if EJ did some major soul searching and stopped his ways, I'd be more accepting of it.

I don't hate Rafe as a character, but I find him and Sami to be uninteresting. I think Rafe would be more interesting with someone like Nicole, but that's just my opinion.

I waited 10+ years for Sami and Lucas to finally be married and I'm still bitter over Sami's stupidity over the "vendetta". Also, they've written Lucas to be immature and stupid, and he doesn't seem to change.

Also, if the writers changed Zach's paternity even after the fans voted it be John's baby, they could easily change the paternity of any of Sami's kids.

As I posted above, I would rather see Sami alone than end up with EJ. He has just done too many horrible things to her and her family to ever have me accept them as a couple. I also was a big fan of Lucas and Sami, but the writers have completely trashed his character. I'll admit I have converted to being a SAFE fan. He treats her better than any other guy ever has, and I liked how their relationship developed. When she went to the saftehouse, I still held out hope for Sami and Lucas - but not so much anymore. Rafe has grown on me, and he is the most intelligent man on the show right now.
