General Hospital - MESSAGE BOARDS

Why is Carly yelling at Jax and Olivia but not Jason? I guess Jason can do no wrong.

Don't know if this will explain it or not, cause if you don't see it right off I'm not sure any explanation will do...But first let me ask this...

What would hurt you more, a lie/betrayal by a good friend or the same lie/betrayal by your spouse?

Jason is NOT her husband.

Jax is! I know that if I found that my husband, who had made me promise to ALWAYS be honest with him and promised to ALWAYS be honest and truthful with me, had been lying to me (even by omission) since the day we made our vows and that those omissions had put one of our children in danger, I would be yelling at him too and finding it very hard to forgive...

Yes, Jason kept the info from her too, but in his case it is tempered by the fact that he has proven that he will do whatever it takes to help her and her children including risk his life...

About Olivia, not sure I can explain, maybe it's cause Carly's so mad at/hurt by Jax and is extending her pain/rage onto Olivia because she sided with Jax over her?

Or maybe she's just emotional/irrational (she did just give birth under horrifying conditions, maybe her hormones are still out of whack!)

This is off the subject, but I bet she let's Sonny have it too!

Because she thinks that Jax does not care about Michael as much as Morgan and Josslyn. He knew that Claudia put a hit out on Sonny and that is how Michael got injured. He let Michael be around Claudia knowing this.

She thinks he was trying to save his brother. But at the time Jax knew it was an accident and Sonny provoked the Z's to take action. He did not want the fact that his brother was involved to ruin the reunion of Carly and himself. And he wanted the violence to stop there.

I HATE this storyline. It's so stupid! She forgave Jason in two minutes, she's not gonna have a problem with Sonny either, I'm sure. They always get a get outta jail free card. But she and Jax had just gotten back together (From her sleeping with Sonny) and he found this out. He needed to take two minutes to process it and they found out she had this deadly pregnancy. Of course he wanted to protect the weaker (at the time) members of his family. He always said he was gonna tell her. Jason didn't tell her for the exact same reasons and say what you will but she trusts Jason more than she trusts anyone. This is just a stupid, irritating storyline just when I was enjoying GH so much.

I think the fact of what you expect from a spouse vs bf is very valid but I think there is another point as well -
Jax knew before Carly was pregnant and chose to keep it from her and let her son live in that house with that woman. Jason only had suspisions no actual evidence until the day of the party. Jason very much has the excuse of protecting her and the baby where as Jax doesn't because he chose to lie before there ever was a baby!

She should be mad at Jason too. She accused Olivia of not really being a "friend", well she considers Jason a friend too, and she has known him years longer than she has known Olivia. So someone was right when they said that Jason can 'do no wrong' in her eyes.

I think you answered your own question.
To Carly, Jason can never do a lasting wrong. She will find a way to excuse, forgive, justify, or ignore anything he does.

Jason didn't make her promise to always be honest. Jax on the other hand made such a big deal about honesty and no secrets. I don't blame her for being mad at Jax.
