Good morning, Lumifans!
I agree with your post, BooPea! I don't read or respond to most of the posts villifying Lucas for things he did years ago - things Sami has already forgiven him for - because it all seems so pointless to me. If some people want to choose to ignore that both characters have moved past the anger and are trying to recover from those warring years then they can do that. Imo, nothing Lucas says or does will ever be enough because some people have chosen to hate him no matter what.
In the end though, it doesn't really matter. Sami's forgiven him, loves him, and wants to spend the rest of her life with him.

Hogan loves Lumi and wants them to spend the rest of their lives together.

Corday wants a new, younger power couple and Lucas and Sami are it.

And if the spoilers are any indication -

- there will be plenty of opportunity for Lucas to redeem himself in the eyes of any doubters (who are actually willing to see him for who he really is and aren't deathly committed to hating him no matter what). Sami's going to need him in a BIG way very soon...and he'll be there for her.
