LOL! That's a bit of a stretch. It's just a TV show. It's not real. So, to say that anyone that enjoys this storyline is supporting rape culture is wrong. If we go with this line of thinking, then anyone that enjoys daytime soaps supports lying, cheating, back stabbing and rape as well. Or maybe it's just a simple indulgence; a guilty pleasure.
I mean, I don't mind the relationship. I liked the kiss because it wasn't hot and heavy and tearing at each other. It was just a simple kiss. The first little spark of romance. I think it was done right. But, a kiss doesn't mean that they're going to get together.
They just admitted feelings for each other. But, now Juliette is back in the picture and Nick is going to be confused about that. Meisner obviously has feelings for Adlind, so I expect him to inject himself back into her life. And she'll realize that it was Meisner that took care of her and got her out alive. SO, Meisner will always be a Knight in Shining Armor to her and is greatful for it. So, this relationship may already be doomed before it even starts. Or, they may be able to fight all of these obstacles and still stay true to their feelings for each other. But, I'm never losing site that this is nothing more than a story.
