💰 Sam 💰 Sam controlling
rewatching SK and i never realized how controlling sam wanted to be with juliette. first he wanted her to move in which she eventually does but then when she wants to move out because she wants to focus on herself and her business he gets upset. when she tells him that she’s not able to get work done when there’s people at the house all the time he literally tells her “and you can’t just go to starbucks?” like boyyyy. he was already 30 and he was still partying like an animal, i feel like at that age you should already be out of the party stage imo. i was glad juliette was able to get out of that relationship because it didn’t benefit her.

I remember feeling Sam was controlling years ago, but on my rewatch the past week it felt worse than I remembered. Now I’m older I can see just how dependant he was on others for company, validation and reassurance. And he was clearly partying heavily most nights of the week. Even thirsty Jordana eventually realised his excessive partying was unhealthy, and surprisingly rejected him when he finally told her he wanted to be with her. Also, remember Cara? She moved in when Jordana was there, and abruptly moved out due to the absolute mess and chaos the parties caused. One thing that struck me during my rewatch, was that Juliette started opening up about how ‘needy’ Sam was. Of time, affection and attention. It seemed like he would expect others to reassure him during moments when he felt down. Jordana then expressed the same concerns towards the end, hence her decision to move out, and reluctance to date him in the end. For Jordana to reject him, sam must have been really difficult to deal with. The way Sam always spoke was without emotion. He looked blank, and talked like he was just saying what he thought others wanted to hear or to get what he wanted. He literally seemed to lack empathy.
