What did you all think of Seiko's response to Justin?


I was surprised that she was so stern. I know she's a tough cookie, but she wasn't remotely flattered by his feelings for her. You could tell that Seiko really likes Justin, it was in her eyes. But the expression her face was like how dare you bring this up now! I know she likes him, alot. And now that she knows his feelings for her, I bet she won't be able to stay with Cal for long.

I was mad at Justin for what he did to Aysia, because he pursued her. But I did feel sorry for him, he just looked so heart broken. I just wanted to hug him lol...

I really wonder what's going to happen next season. I hope Seiko doesn't move in with Cal because I want her to stay on the show.

Anywho..what did you all think of Seiko's response to Justin?

It was interesting kim. My question is what happened to them in the 1st place? Why did they stop dating, and then what made him think it was cool to to date her girl?!? hmm. I don't think she stopped liking him, but was very guarded in how she dealt with him. Good for her. He was playing games! She held her own and handled it like a grown woman. HTF is he going to get mad she had a dude, when he has a girl?! It wasn't a good look on him! I agree with Sei, he was indeed selfish. I had held him to a higher regard (especially since he always wants to fashion himself as voice of reason-- and always checking others).

Yet, I do believe she was mainly fishing for "him" to reveal his feelings at the party. And when he bit she threw his a-- overboard. Ha! That was kinda spiteful. But he prob deserved it. & I hate to say it, she prob felt good doing it. She may have gotten closure and REVENGE.(been there done that, so shoot me)!

I can't call it. He prob was all "I aint ready for a relationship" or whatever. Then when she gets a dude, he wanna trip! It happens all the time. She fixed his butt, and I can't help but to feel happy for her. That's what his wannabe playboy a-- gets! Too many pretty women in LA, so dudes want to act up, till it's too late. Lots of pretty girls, but not all are "true gems".

OP says Seiko didn't seem even remotely flattered, but I saw just the opposite. To me, she seemed distressed because when she wanted to be with him, he wasn't into it. Seiko's response to Justin was perfectly understandable. She gave him the truth, she did so respectfully, and I could see the love in her eyes while she spoke to him.

If I were Seiko, I'd feel insulted. When both Aysia and Seiko were free and available, Justin made his choice. Aysia didn't have to be happy with someone else for Justin to realize he wanted her. If I were Seiko, I would want to know what was so off-putting about me that I had to move on before he realizes his feelings. Because of that, I couldn't trust his feelings toward me have staying power.

For example, what if Seiko had responded differently and decided to be with Justin and dump Cal? Once he had Seiko, would Justin then lose interest like he did when he she was available to him once before and then leave Seiko broken-hearted?

I really like all three of them - Aysia, Justin, and Seiko. Although I like Aysia and think she and Justin make a cute couple, I still wondered why in the world Justin and Seiko weren't together in the first place. Justin and Seiko just make too much sense together.

Warmfire you hit the nail right on the head!

I do want to know about Justin and Seiko together originally, was that ever aired? I never caught the first season of Baldwin Hills, so I'm not clear on everyone's backgrounds. But they do make sense together.

I'm hoping that after some time and they both see other people, that they will eventually end up together. At the very least you know that they have love for each other, and will be friends unconditionally.

I thought them getting baptized together was so sweet, and just the way they are around each other..you can tell they are close.
