Guiding Light - MESSAGE BOARDS

I wonder...I have been reading this thread and on several different posts, people have said that Reva "gave" Josh to Cassie. How can you "give" anyone to someone else? Josh wanted Cassie. Reva didn't give him to her.

She gift wrapped Josh for Cassie. Reva already knows that Cassie has gottahavaman disease.

Yeah, what would SF do without Reva? She is tied into almost every sl. Amazing when you really think about it. No other character has ties like that.

I need her crazt a$$ like a fish needs water.

Reva was really thinking of Josh first, when she hid her Cancer from him. They had just gotten back together, and Reva really wanted their marriage to work. I believe she felt guilty that they had spent most of their life together dealing with some kind of Crisis that SHE was having. She was truly being self-less IMO! She didn't want him to let go of his dreams to build the Veteran's Hospital. He was so excited about making his Daddy proud and finishing what his father was not able to. I for one don't know if I could have wrecked his plans either. The only difference is that I really thought she would end up telling him, not at first though. I could not believe she let it go that long....that was her true mistake. ALSO, IMO, I kept thinking (hoping) that Josh would have tried a little harder to find out what was wrong or up with REVA. That's were the distraction of Cassie came to play. She didn't seem to help the matter at all. Of course it is not all Cassies fault. But come on, I have three sisters myself, and I would never, never, never cross the line like she did.
MY OPINION.

Actually, Reva started the ball rolling when she started menopause. She was having mood swings. Remember, she was flirting with Nate, and told Josh she didn't want him anymore. So, in reality, she was the blame for Josh feeling abandoned. Now, Reva is my fav, but, she was wrong to tell Josh, that he wasn't enough of a man for her. When she got the cancer, she became soft-hearted again, and was thinking she would protect Josh. This was totally wrong. She confided in Billy, not her husband. Josh, would have been there for her, but, she left him out of the picture. Again, she pushed Josh away. In comes little Miss take anybody's man, Cassie, and latched on to Josh. Josh, now feels left out of Reva's life and falls for Cassie. She was always in his face , what could he do? Josh, is now wrong, and of course Cassie could have stopped this romance, but didn't. So, now we have all 3 to blame for this mess and the end of the marriage. But, in the end all will be forgiven between Josh and Reva and I'll be happy again. Whew, I need a drink after that sad tale of woe. Oh, happy days...

OH you see this is where I am torn. I agree with bot Merrymary and Fanagain. I think that Reva started it. But Than again with the cancer she really did have her heart in the right place...and cassie DEFINATLY DIDN'T HELP matters. All 3 are to blame!

My internet service has been down for a couple of days. I just read all these responses and OMG you are all a riot! I am rolling! Thank you so much, I've never had such fun reading an update of old stuff like this.

Sounds like Reva went a little too far and Josh didn't go far enough and Cassie jumped in where she didn't belong.

So thanks again to all of you for such a great welcome to this board.
