It's clear that Julian is more in love with Joanna than she is in love with him. And that's how it's supposed to be. That's the only way where a relationship could work for the long-run. I just really wish that Joanna would stop listening to what her mama is saying about Julian and let her guard down......
shareYes I totally agree, a man should show 100% affection first. That's why so many women get hurt they put in all the love affection first and get a shocking and unexpected reaction. I hope that no matter what happens love will conquer and survive between them.

@Janet: Thanks.
shareBoth people have to show each other some affection before anything can work--I don't know where the OP got that from, but it's ridiculous--nobody's obligated to love you unless they want to! Plus you have to learn to love yourself first before anything else,period!
shareactivista, I agree with you. Besides.. what does this have to do with Deception? I'm just curious!! I didnt read the other post because the subject threw me off track a bit. :-)
shareI agree with the OP. My mother told me the same thing when I was a teenager. A man has to love you more than you love him. You want to remain on that pedestal. The older you get, the more you understand this logic.

You want to remain on that pedestal. The older you get, the more you understand this logic.
Anyone who desires to be put on a pedestal wants to be worshiped, not loved.

Yeah,well, your mother was wrong, and didn't know what she was talking about.
shareJanet, I think Joanna does love Julian as much as he loves her. She has a wall up because she has not come clean about why she came there. She is technically living a lie although her heart is truly his. You can tell they've loved each other since they were kids. Damn, I wish we could get more flash backs. I love the actors who play them and the scenes are so sweet.
shareWhat is this love for Julian? He's a womanizing junky who punched his sister in the face. Yet females on this board keep thinking he's Mr. Wonderful?
Jo's mama is right. The woman may be losing her memories but she hasn't yet lost her mind. Julian is a PLAYER and once he finds out that Jo is playing him, he'll toss her a$$ out the door and be right back to his player ways.
A man is supposed to love you more than you love him.
Umm, I have to disagree about the assessment that Julian clearly 'loves Joanna more than he loves her'. lol, I think he clearly put his cards on the table in a way that Will (I don't think) did.
However, I also wouldn't be surprised if Julian dumped Joanna in the near future, only to want her again once she's unavailable. I would need to see more from the character before I buy him as the supreme White Knight you guys seem to think he is. All these characters are pretty flawed & have their drawbacks now.
A man should love a woman more than she loves him? That is a horrible thing to say, and completely devoid of an understanding of how a strong relationship would survive.
It goes both ways, though; a woman who loves a man more than he loves her won't work either, because an imbalance in a relationship gives too much emotional power to one person. The LOVED will eventually bore of the LOVER & break the relationship off..... it's simply not healthy to have a blatant imbalance of emotion.
Thanks, dootmoot, at least one voice of reason!!
I only clicked on this post because of this ludicrous title - wanted to find out if this was some sort of joke or if the OP was serious about this statement!
No wonder relationships don't work if people start on a premise like that....
