If memory serves me correctly it started when Gemma planted the seed in her head, saying something about well if it wasn't the perfect relationship then that's different, or something to that effect. Only after Gemma said whatever it was; I can't remember the words, but I remember thinking she'd fed Stephanie the perfect excuse to start justifying what was going on, which from then on she added to more and more with excuses as to why suddenly the relationship with Sam had gone from being one she wished to consolidate by marriage to one, suddenly, that needed to be escaped from.”
Sure. I do feel that what happened with Jeremy would not have happened if Sam was "the one" for her, so I feel all that supposed love Steph was expressing about Sam at the start of the show was unfounded. Just my view. I think Jeremy truly meets her needs better. And we know they are some needs!
But, the whole thing is really unpleasant when I think more about it.
I still have a lot of time for Steph, but she has some serious growing up to do. When she made the "knob ed" remark tonight it really made me think of a gobby 16 year old
