What's bizarre about this so called couple is how everything was handed to them; they never had any obsticles to overcome like other couples. To me that signifies that this relationship is of a temporary nature. Well, actually, it's an on-again, off-again thing, not even a real relationship. I can only conclude that all this is filler on the way to Ejami.
Great post!!! Rafe and Sami never had to overcome any obstacles. Therefore, they really never had much of a major buildup as compared to EJ and Sami. IMO, this couple was literally forced together because the writers couldn't decide who should be paired with Sami {Lucas/EJ?}. They certainly took the easy road out by pairing Sami with boring Rafe. EJ and Sami have chemistry written all over their faces. If the writers can't see this greatness. Geez, we are in for a major disappointment. Rafe and Sami are dull as dry paint. As for Sami. Where did the love for Rafe come from? I would have to equate Sami's so call love for Rafe as gratitude. Gosh, I simply hate this storyline. Sami knew good and well that EJ is a terrific father. Yet, he is painted as a monster in Sami's eyes. Thus, Rafe is the perfect hero. Give me a freaking break!!!
