Jason: Tasha, Monica, or... CONNIE?!?

If it ships, it fits! Think Jennie is a match made in heaven? Think Jason and Tasha are meant to be? Here's where to discuss your OTP!

Read the story, up there ^^ Liz posted it, and all they did was enter a contest together, then a quick trip to the ER...;)

Haha, that story was awesome, poor Jason.
I really don't think Jason and Connie would cope well as a couple.They have more of a brother-sister relationship going. If they lived together on a day-to-day basis,I believe their personalities would clash.

Well, they don't have to be similar to be a good couple. Sometimes people who are very different get married and live together for their entire lives on a daily basis. That doesn't mean there isn't conflict, but if they are committed to each other, it doesn't matter. (like my mother was saying today incidentally. She and dad are like total opposites, and they often have...disagreements of opinion, but at the end of the day, it is love that keeps them together, no matter how rough things get, or not. :) )
Besides, if there's conflict, it makes for an interesting story. :D

Why, thank you Vic. I like to think of myself as a shameless romantic. And I have to admit, it would be nice in many ways if Jason married Tasha. But I have my heart set on Monica.
Ameraca, your opinions on AIO are always very strong and well-thought out. But in this rare case, you're wrong.
You, "don't have to be similar to be a good couple"...
Of course not. Why shouldn't a reindeer fall in love with a purple alien?
We can agree there is in fact a line where dissimilarities become a problem. But it seems you have an incorrect idea of where that line is. You go ahead and assume any difference can be overcome by love. But love can't. Because love is aroused by similarities. J+C proponents never tire of the saying, "opposites attract."
True. But you don't marry someone because you're an architect and your date is a wrecking-ball worker. You marry someone because, say, you love books and someone else loves books. If you adored to write but someone else couldn't understand your passion, would you be likely to fall in love with him?
And of course, relationships have to be based on one particular similarity: Christianity.
Also, Connie left Mitch because their differences held them apart. "I was terrified." Connie earnestly explains to Mitch, who thinks danger is fun.
You do have to have things in common for love to work.
Opposites attract. But similarities hold lovers together.

I have to agree with PF, even though I REALLY want Connie and Jason to get married.

I agree and disagree with your statement, PF.
I agree that you need to have common interests but I don't think you need to be clones of each others interests. We all like different things. I can LOVE crocheting, but I don't expect my future husband to LOVE crocheting just because I do. Or even be interested in it.
He could LOVE football but I'm never going to LOVE football. I can tolerate it, but I'm never going to LOVE it.
I think what really matters is if they have the same belief structure and have the same goals in life. I think Connie and Jason have that.
JASON+CONNIE!

Don't listen to Liz's dirty lies, Pound Foolish is never wrong.
First off, that's right. They do have to have similar goals in life. That's the whole point. Not whether they both like to crochet, whether they have similiar passions. If their lives are compatible. They're not.
Their interests don't connect. Connie's goals and interests: be a teacher, the mall, bowling, romance novels. Jason: danger, intrigue, serious reading.
Liz, it's illogical to think they could get along. Again, Jason has the exact same problem Mitch had. Too different. So how can you possibly say it's not a problem when Connie already confirmed it is?
The differences are there. Any signs of love aren't.
Which is because love is based on uniformity. On similarity.
There's no getting around that. Yes, you can have a lot of different interests. But you have to some interests in common.
By and large, Jason and Connie don't.

But PF, wouldn't you say that Jason's given up those goals by moving back to Odyssey? There's not a whole lot of danger and intrigue in owning an antique shop. Hey, I'm not saying that Jason and Connie should be a couple. I'm just saying that your reason has some holes in it. Plus, I like playing devil's advocate.

Perhaps, Vic. But that's pure speculation until we actually see Jason in 58.. Also, who knows how long that will last. Long enough for Connie to fall madly in love with Jason and for them to start dating in whirl of romance? Not likely.
And if Jason does stick with antiques... how is antiques conducive to romance? Since when does Connie like antiques? Why would Connie suddenly have more in common with Jason because he sells old vases?
Surely you won't contend that Connie is an antiques person. Have you ever heard get excited over a fifty year old piece of China?
If anything, Connie and Jason now have less in common than ever.

Is this a serious question? In my opinion, antiques are QUITE romantic.

... Um... How passionate. Well, remind me to get you an old chair for you birthday.
Anyhow, I know you were partly joking. But for what it's worth, THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT I SAID.

"Oh, yes, Jason. I will marry you. Along with your 18th century swords and 16th vases. All this glorious old treasure. It makes my heart sing. *Falls in Jason's arms*"

Somehow, I don't see this happening... Image

Just for the record, I'm totally kidding with this entire thing. I just couldn't resist a good sarcastic remark. *Whistles*

Well, I guess my parents should have gotten divorced a long time ago, then. Seriously, they have almost nothing in common, except God and us kids and a common house. Oh, and a long history of good and bad times together. They were much more similar when they got married, but then Dad stopped doing the things Mom liked to do. They could have called it quits. But they didn't. Why? Because of Commitment. "Till death do us part" and all that.
I do believe it's best if people have commonalities; personally, I don't want to marry someone who is the exact opposite of me. I want to have a lot of common interests. But the most important similarities are, as you said, Christianity--shared faith. And commitment to each other, no matter what happens. Oh, and Love I suppose might be a good one to throw in there. ;)
I believe Jason and Connie have/have the potential to have these most important characteristics of a successful relationship.
There. That's probably all I'm going to say because I don't want to get into a big fat debate. I hate debates but sometimes I feel strongly about something I have to put in my two (or fewer) cents.

Some people say Jason should get married to Connie. I disagree. Mitch should have started dating that lady who pretended to be Jessica Brown in Something Old, Something New Parts 1 and 2 but the lady married Jason instead so Mitch decided to marry Connie! And they would live happily ever after...

Well, I don't think he should marry Connie, DUH!!
But I think they should make Tasha get saved, and then marry Jason.
Here is my plan:
Tasha is on another secret mission, and she gets captured, and after a series of torturing and things going wrong, she realizes she can't do it alone, and she remembers all the things that Jason told her, so she tries it, she prays and asks God if he is real, to help her, and then miracle after miracle happens and she sees Jesus in a vision, she gets out and finds Jason right as he was about to find her (He heard form the agency that she was caught, and rushes to save her.) and she asks Jason to help her be saved.
Good plan right?
I love it when a good plan comes together. So I want our AIO Focus on the Family representative to take this up to AIO HQ, in Col. and pitch this idea.
So, Get on with it, Davai! as we say in Mama russia!

And not Monica, she has nothing to do with Jason, it just wouldn't seem right.
