the fasten seatbelt sign has just come on

Everything to say about the Jared and Sandy thing has already been said by sockherder here.

Since I don't know the man, though, I can sit back, remove myself from his personal relationship drama[...]

Truer words were never spoken. If you met Jared or Sandy at a con or saw them in passing at a store or hell, even if you work with members of their families you don't know them personally. He's an actor and as an actor I like him. Beyond that, at this point, I DON'T CARE. And we have no right to know so much that we SHOULD care.

If it affects the way you see him as an actor and it affects the way you watch the show, that's fine, stop watching. But we'll NEVER know the whole truth as I highly doubt they're going to post about it to the internet beyond blanket, vague statements. I couldn't be more pleased about that, either. We're not owed anything beyond performances to the best of any actor's ability.

In other news, why does tomorrow have to be Sunday? It should be Saturday all over again. :(

I couldn't agree more. All I care about is that Jared knocks it out of the park with his portrayal of Sam. His personal life, is his personal life. People's relationships fail for all sorts of reasons, and the only people it really affects is them (Well unless you're Henry VIII and you take the whole country with you). Obviously Sandy has given a classy and kind statement. I intend to respect the way she wants this portrayed. As to Jared, whatever happened, it's his business, not mine.

Exactly. And even if we did have the chance to know the details I wouldn't WANT to know because it changes how you see the people. Parts of fandom already backlashed on him when they THOUGHT he cheated. If there'd been confirmation... UGH. I prefer thinking of Jared in the j2 sense in my head. That's good enough for me.
