I thought he said that SO ODDLY, too! I mean...it could be argued that more people would recognize HER than HIM, considering OTH's cultish status, y'know?

And the whole "I'm not MARRIED" line was...hmm. Alrighty, then. :|

I wonder if he was just still really uncomfortable about talking about it? I get that he's shy, but yeah, it sounded a bit jerkish like you said.

I think he said it very awkwardly. I get that he doesn't like to talk about his personal life, that's cool, but... I don't know, he doesn't seem very enthusiastic. Maybe it's just because it's in text format and we can't hear the inflections of his voice or see his body language. I don't know.

But what I do know is that Jensen should date Jared. Or at least make out with him in public.

In conclusion, I totally agree!!

From:

Isn't that just a tad bit insulting?

I kind of saw it as a compliment - he seems to have a lot of respect for people who keep to themselves, aren't out in front of the paparazzi every day. Especially considering he follow its up with "she's good people", like those two statements are related.

And uhm, that's their connection?

Coming from a southern state myself, I can relate. It's really easy to connect with people from similar backgrounds, similar families. But YMMV. I've, er, probably said the same thing about multiple guys I've dated. Even referred to more than one as "good people" based on the fact that they grew up near me (and that they were good people - real southern boys can be so sweet, and that's steroetyping, but I love them, I really do). :P

But Jensen totally wants to date Jared. Who wouldn't?

♥

From:

That's what I was thinking, too. Like if it was a VIDEO interview, maybe he'd be giving that sheepish, adorable grin while talking about her and we'd all coo and go "Awww...he's shy, but he lurves her".

I'm hoping something just got lost in the text. :|

*hangs all over you*

I can stay with you all day? Today is not working out for me.

Didn't someone in another interview also ask Jared if he was married and he just shrugged it off with a "I still check the 'single' box on my tax return but I've been dating this girl for a few years now.."? Jensen's ~~excuse~~ quote sounded much more awkward. =D

From:

A "rider", if you will: Jensen obviously isn't comfortable talking about his love life, which is why part of it came off awkward, and why this is really the first thing he's ever said publicly about her. I love that he keeps things close to the chest, love that he's found somebody who is just as interested in that as he is. Only way a relationship can last in Hollywood, right?

But YMMV.

From:

Yeah. I just. I dunno.

And the whole "I'm not MARRIED" line was...hmm. Alrighty, then.

Hahah. Right? Like tell us more of what you're not. I like knowing the obvious.

From:

But the fangirls have already jumped on her. For good or bad.

Jared + Jensen 4ever *draws sparkly hearts around them* Sorry, were you saying something about a girl? :P

From:

Yeah, hearing it might've been better. Hopefully at least.

From:

well, she DOES have a nice rack though. I can forgive a lot for a nice rack.

From:

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.

<stalks>

That's what I'm thinking. Jensen has a pretty dry sense of humor sometimes, and that bleeds into everything he does. He keeps his emotion on his face, and his tone of voice (*points to icon, melts a little*), not in his words.

Like, if I read some of the video interviews he's done in the past? I don't think they'd read nearly half as adorable as they did on video.

From:

Only way a relationship can last in Hollywood, right?

But what about THESE GUYS? *points to icon*

:D

From:

I think that my mileage is varying. :)

From:

I think that would be lovely, I have a feeling that today might not work out for me either. And lj isn't emailing me comments. *kicks it*

From:

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.

From:

That is very much what happened earlier.

From:

Nope, no girl. :)

From:

or at the very least, KNOCK HER UP WITH YOUR ADORABLE MAN-BABIES!!

No, really, get married.

From:

I do enjoy her breasts a lot more than the Bunny's. Also her hair is better too.

From:

TOTALLY THE EXCEPTION TO THE RULE! *g*

*smishes all over them*

It's funny, though, 'cause Jared manages to be so open about his relationship, without actually giving much away or crossing over into that area where he's flaunting it. And that's just a mark of how open Jared is as a person, in comparison to Jensen.

From:

Yeah, I'm sure it was probably a mixture of it being "text" and him being uncomfortable. Although he needs to get over that, they've been together a year already. INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW ALL YOUR SRS BUSINESS JENSEN.
