Wow, they are both SMASHED! Nice that their off-screen friendship is basically the same as their on-screen friendship. If Adam is not best man, then I guess it must be Paddy.

Is it just me, or does Robert have a problem with looking Rebecca in the eyes?
Love how Victoria just blurted ouut some home truths to Chrissie, and that Lawrence later agreed with Victoria. Just wish that Andy could return soon and this mess will be over. It has been dragging on forever now.
Does this mean Rebecca is Robert's first, and so far only friend?
This was actually the first time that I felt like Robert and Rebecca was only just friends. That she now understands how much Aaron is a huge part of Robert's life, and that she didn't try anything with him. The same way that Robert does not want to loose her as a friend. Other than Aaron, I think Rebecca is the only one that really knows Robert. And she is the only one he can talk to.
Both Aaron and Robert does not have many frinds. I do think just 1-2 friends each would be normal. Aaron has Adam, and Victoria, and now Robert has Rebecca. Both of them have always been lone wolves.

Do I need to create my own, or could I just follow the ones I like, and write posts on them? I'm not good at building/creating stuff online. I Would love to learn one Day. But not today. You register and go to those blogs and on the top right corner there is a follow button, or hover over their name when you see a post and a follow button will also appear. You click and then you follow them. Basically what will happen is that everytime they post/reblog you will see it on your own dashboard when you go to tumblr.com and you are logged in (ofcourse), basically like the same as it is on facebook. If you like/follow someone it will appear on your screen/feed/dashboard/wall/whatever-you-call-it. You can also like and reblog things, if you do then that will appears on your own blog, but you don't have to. If you put tags underneath your posts other people following those tags can see that and they may follow you. So everytime you post or reblog something those followers will see it on their own dash. Making your own blog is not that difficult, They have premade ones, I use those as well. I hope that was a good enough explanation, Tumblr is kinda hard to explain sometimes.

Aaron is still hoping and waiting for the day to come when his mum and dad reunite. Nothing will make him more happy if this happens.
Then he would have Robert,Liv, Chas & Paddy.

The more I think about it the more I can't help thinking that the whole Finn and Kasim story, aside from a handful of decent scenes about grieving and loss, was designed to help justify Aaron beating the hell out of someone and getting no real viewer backlash, the way he would have if he kept beating up cops or security guards. Not only was Kasim himself completely unknown to viewers, just a plot point boyfriend of Finn's, but the attack was framed in a way where viewers could blame the whole thing on Finn if they wanted to. Oh poor Aaron was just sticking up for a mate (even though he himself admitted he blacked out and completely forgot what he was doing or who he was hitting). Finn is in the wrong for calling the cops. Finn is in the wrong for trashing Kasim's house. Kasim doesn't even have a reaction to what Aaron did, even though he was the one who got put into hospital. We can offload our anger onto Finn (who has now "moved on" and will presumably go back to being a supporting comic relief character, at least until this pops up again for Emma's inevitable exposure). Aaron gets none of our blame and all of our tears and sympathy.
If this was the show's plan, then they really should ask themselves why they have to work so hard to make sure Aaron gets no blame for repeated and excessive acts of violence, and why this has become so rote for the character. And I also hope they ask themselves why they felt one of the very few men of color they've added to the show in the last few years needed to have this particular role (and the other was just there to get battered by Cain and have an affair with a mentally ill teenage girl...).
Oh well.
I try not to let this affect my opinion of Aaron THAT much, because I do think some other aspects of the character this past year have been much improved, but it's not easy.

I felt the whole Chas and Paddy was a bit wierd, and out of the blue. Like, there has not been very much about them or their "relationship" lately. And then they just go and have sex.
I liked how Faith was there for Aaron during his panick attack. Love how Faith is just saying what everyone is thinking.
Sure,Liv has Aaron for now.. but that might change if he gets sent down for a longer time. Robert will then have to step up and be the "parent" that she needs so bad.
I do think Liv will start to bond with Robert if Aaron isn't around for awhile. They will have to get used to being there for each other. So far, we have seen glimpses of how much they care for each other, even if they not always want to admit it.
Chas and Robert have also grown closer, and starts to talk more. The best is that she has actually seen both sides of Robert. First the one when he returned to the village, and got married to Chrisse & her Lifestyle. Then, the affair with him and Aaron.. Then Robert accepting himself, and slowly coming to terms with who he is, and wants to be. These days, he is a new person, a person who he himself wants to be. To be with Aaron and Liv.
I don't think anyone really thought Robert wuld change so much. But.. something happened when he met Aaron. It just clicked for them from the start.

Liv was gone for an entire month and we STILL never saw Robert and Aaron alone in their bedroom even just waking up or going to bed or having a conversation in private. Now she's back and they will have no time alone ever again. Ugh.

Oh well. I try not to let this affect my opinion of Aaron THAT much, because I do think some other aspects of the character this past year have been much improved, but it's not easy. I totally get your POV about the Kasim attack, especially when you see that there was no threat of violence to anyone during the argument, so Aaron's reaction was completely unrealistic. Even if you accept that he was lashing out because of his insecurities about Robert, it still comes across as ridiculous. It would have been far more believable for Aaron to have gone off on his own to brood and get hammered. IMO the SW's have a lot to answer for when they create these ridiculous, over the top scenarios simply to create a plotline that puts the wedding in doubt, as that is how it appeared to me. So if that was the intention, it would have been far more believable if they'd used the Robert/Bex scenario as that already exists as a problem between them. And you're absolutely right that Aaron shouldn't get away with what he's done, but lets face it, Emmerdale writers have a nasty habit of making sure that when characters commit crimes, they all seem to get away with it, with the odd exception. The ones that spring to mind are: Saint Andy (yeah, right)!!!! - Deliberately sets the barn on fire and kills his mum in the process (and not knowing she was in there isn't any kind of defence btw) Andy again - Makes a pact with Ross to kill Pete if Ross kills Robert (Er, last time I checked, that would be pre-meditated murder), but their all out free as birds Robert - Pushes Katie to her death (pretty sure that would be manslaughter) Emma - Pushed her husband over a bridge to his death after holding him hostage and drugging him. Not a hint of her getting caught So basically, compared to that lot, I'd say Aaron's tendency for fighting pretty much qualifies him for Sainthood!!! LOL!!! If you don't count Jackson that is, and I don't because he pretty much guilt tripped and emotionally blackmailed Aaron into doing that. I actually hated him for that, a really selfish and cruel thing to ask of someone, especially when it's so obvious that they don't want to do it............

Now she's back and they will have no time alone ever again. Ugh. We saw them having a conversation in private after Aaron beat up Kasim. We rarely see any characters in their bedroom so I don't think that's ever going to happen. Actually that one time with Aaron and Robert during SSW was the only time I ever remember seeing Emmerdale characters in a bedroom, aside from many years ago when we saw Robert and Andy in bed with various women.

I thought the scenes with Finn and Emma on Thursday were by far the best of this story. It's too bad about how poorly done the rest was.

It really is what the story was all about. If only it could have maintained that throughline and the quality of those moments rather than the nonsense we got for most of the story.

During their wedding, Diane looked so happy and proud for Robert. I wish that she Will be there to support him when he needs her when Aaron goes to jail. Also, I'm hoping they will grow close for him to open up about his father.
I don't get why Liv left in the middle of The wedding, and were all those people we never seen before came from?
I so miss having Aaron working at the garage. Loved how they brought back so many comments, and memories from The beginning of their relationship.
Robert, I think loved The moment when they had him drink from The welly. He knows that they have all accepted him into the family by doing it.
Aaron was so proud of Robert to "go into the pub and say it proud". Robert is so comfortable now. He has come a really long way. They both have. Love can do amazing things to people.
Paddy finally realizing how much Robert actually loves Aaron, and accepted it. It was a big moment.
Aaron and Robert dancing and kissing in public like it's no big deal.

Listen, I love reborn and there my obsession, but does the show try not to make them not so sexual. I just wonder if I was the only feeling this way. And I don't want to compare other soap with gay characters that are more affection it and some places I expect a kiss and they don't show them in bed that much. But hopefully that's coming down the road.
I'm not trying to start anything it's just things I notice and just want to know if other feel the same. I still Love Rebron.
