Thnks fr the msmnt

Or something.

TV Guide: You don't like to talk about your life, but you're single, right?
Ackles: I'm not married. [Laughs] I've been dating somebody for about a year. She's an actress.

TV Guide: Who is it then?
Ackles: [Laughs] I don't know if I should tell you. She's an upcoming actress. She's not known. She's good people. She comes from a very similar home. Louisiana. We've got that in common. It works well.


Uhm. Things.

She's not known.
--Isn't that just a tad bit insulting? Just a little? I mean as much as I and others love Jensen he's not exactly a big shot Hollywood actor.

She comes from a very similar home. Louisiana. We've got that in common.
--Uhm. What? He grew up in a southern state. She grew up in a southern state. And uh, that's their connection? That's the thing he chooses to say is what they have in common? I'm afraid I'm not feeling the love.

Also, with his "similar home" bit, isn't that how he describes his and Jared's relationship? Only when it's about Jared he doesn't (IMO) come off sounding like a jerk.

In conclusion.

Jensen wants to date Jared. But we already knew that.

Hmm, okay I see your point but I still feel it came across as a bit jerkish. I know there's a good chance that I'm reading it wrong but still. Maybe he could've said, "She's also on a show on the CW" or something other than "not known" I think anyway.

And sure about the whole southern state connection thing but again, he could've added to it a little? "We both love roller coaster rides and eating too much cotton candy." "We're both in a fantasy football pool." Something.

Yeah, perhaps I'm picturing his face as he says it too much or reading too much into it. :) (Random, but didn't she leave One Tree Hill or get written off? I heard something about that, but I wasn't sure if it was true ...)

Sometimes I really DO wish he'd be more open about things. He does have a tendency to come off very closed-off and impersonal but as much as it can be frustrating, I can't hate him for it, not at all. SIGH. Oh, Jensen.

As far as I know she's still on OTH. Her character left for a bit during the last season? But she came back.

I can't hate him for it, not at all.

I don't hate him. Not even a little bit.

I seem to remembering something over the summer, someone spoke to her and found out she wouldn't be back next season, that she'd been written out? Perhaps when she was at Jensen's show in Texas? Hmmm. PURELY speculation, though, 'cause who knows if the source was legit. I'm really not familiar with One Tree Hill, but I know they don't get a whole lot of spoilers - which would have been the first place I looked. :P Haven't spotted a single mention of her or her character in anything I have seen, but that doesn't mean anything. Not necessarily. Huh.

Yeah, I really don't know anything about the whole thing, so ignore me. :P

As someone who's kept up with him since those early "Days" days, I will say that he's opened up MUCH more ever since meeting Jared. So that's something. It used to be like, crickets.

"Jensen it's okay to tell people your name. Honest. Besides most of the people watching the show already know it."

Yeah, I've only known who Jensen is since March 2006 (I watched him on Smallville, but didn't care for his character, and I started watching Supernatural in March '06) , so everything I've seen of him is, well, all together at once. :P

It is interesting to me, though, to read stuff about Jensen hiding in dressing rooms at Days conventions, compared to how he is now. He's definitely opened up drastically over the last two years and that is SO DEFINITELY attributed to Jared.

I'm reminded of that fan report (http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3132514&st=7455&p=6410707&#entry6410707) from Paley, about how Jensen was freaking out, then so damn RELIEVED when he found Jared. (I don't necessarily like the source, 'cause he's kind of pompous, but I trust him not to exaggerate, so I completely believe this.)

"Dean guards Sam. Jared guards Jensen."

And that's it in a nutshell. ♥
