At this stage of Todd's maturation, and with the way TSJ plays him...I really think I am a TnT fan.
Blair is a Witch and Marty Dr Saybrooke is always waaaaaaay bitter towards him.
Tea...i dunno...Tea...''Gets'' Todd.
Todd should Pick Tea to be with Once and For All out of those 3 To Be With.
Thats What I think!!!

Blair apparently does still want him for reasons some of which I think I understand, most which I don't, but really, after all she has been through with this man, shouldn't this be her choice to make? In a way, I think she just made a choice. She decided she doesn't want him if he is determined to go after Tea. What I'm hoping is that if things go wrong with Tea, and he comes running back wanting to take up with Blair where he left things off, that the door will be closed and locked. I think there has to be a limit, even on soaps for how often a woman will put up with her heart being stomped on by a man who just isn't worth it.
And now we come to Tea. I think Tea also has to decide how much she really wants, let alone trusts this man who apparently fathered a child he did not know was his for fifteen years. That means that Tea has kept the truth from him for that long for reasons that to the viewer are still murky at best. Based on Todd and his history with women and especially his recent behavior toward his known teenage daughter, I think she has every reason in the world to be reluctant to tell him the truth. Todd has always had an obsession with the people in his life that he claims as belonging to him, and he has shown that when push comes to shove their feelings do not enter into the equation. From Marty in college with her frightened eyes and a sweat rag in her mouth, to a pregnant Starr being carelessly shoved out of the way, causing her to fall down the stairs, when he was bound and determined to make her boyfriend pay for taking her away from him. Tea herself got knocked in the face when she angered him one time.
Anyway, my issue with your post is that sadly the women and children in Todd's life do seem to belong to him as far as Todd himself is concerned and unfortunately I think too often that is the way the writers see it too, but as I see it, the choice should be left with the women in his life, because they are the ones who have the most to lose from this man.
