I feel bad!

Okay, so I cannot help but feel bad for poor Jake. On Emma Schutte's' blog, she wrote about how she hated Brett. When she said that I had to comment because I thought I was the only one who felt this! I think I feel worse for Jake than anything though. He is clearly in love with Brett. He says he has loved her "a hell of a long time" on page 128, and I just feel so much sympathy for him. It is like he is having unrequited love. The worst part is that it is not even unrequited! She loves him but refuses to even feel anything since she cannot have a sexual relationship with him. She even told him this on page 33 saying "Don't touch me". She cannot stand to have him even touch her knowing that she will never be able to have anything sexual with him. I feel so bad for him! He has to sit there helping her with all of her man problems while he loves her! This has happened in similar situations in movies today such as "Maid of Honor", "10 things I Hate About You", "He's Just Not That Into YOu", and kind of in "She's the Man" . In each off these movies, either a guy or girl must help out the person they are in love with, but they must mask their true feelings. I think this compares with Jake!
