Julian/Jadzia

Gross. Also of no actual cost. (Or is that value? Sometimes it's hard to tell. Especially in this context. Ehh... I'll go with both.)


Doing your own laundry isn't that bad. Except getting mustard out, which is a pain but still doable And if you set the dishwasher on high, and prewash, it will remove even the caked on stuff.

You do your laundry in the dishwasher?
 
I don't think we've ever been on topic to be honest, but I personally think Bashir is pretty creepy and inappropriate, certainly his habit of making passes at female patients hardly smacks of strong medical ethics. He's socially awkward and inexperienced, making faux pas after faux pas whilst making female after female uncomfortable.

Worf on the other hand, for all his dourness, is a deeply spiritual and cultural gentleman and would appeal to her life experience on those terms.

One of the reasons stated that with Worf, Jadzia would be drawing more on Curzon Dax rather than what makes Jadzia different to the previous hosts.

I do not think Julian is creepy at all because when he had that fantasy in "If wishes were horses", he could not help keep his fantasy quiet as it was out of control. To add to that, Jadzia helped Julian to become more mature throughout the first few seasons though because he was quite annoying at the start.
 
I do not think Julian is creepy at all

Seriously rewatch his interactions with Leeta, Melora and Kira to name but a few and tell me those were appropriate to a doctor treating a patient....

I'll give you a clue from a real world healthcare professional, he'd get struck off long before we got to seven seasons.
 
When I get chance. I will have a look.
But I am still not convinced.

Cool, but in fairness the character is notorious for being creepy around women, it's a well known trope throughout the fandom and I'm hardly alone in saying so.

Out of curiosity, any female input would be appreciated here?
 
Ezri did tell Julian that if Worf hadn't come along, it would have been Julian instead.

I did see that scene from "Afterimage".
I do not think Julian was creepy with Jadzia at all because he valued the friendship and If had not had been for Worf. It would have been them 2. I was really disappointed when I see Dax falling for Worf and I do not watch beyond Season 4 as a result. I know Seasons 5, 6 and 7 had some of the best episodes in DS9 but I would not watch scenes of Dax and Worf though.

I remember her saying that and I suspect Ezri is either insincere, trying to make Julian feel better, or else still confused. Jadzia thought of him as a friend. She decided she wasn't interested in him romantically roughly episode 2. Nothing changed by the time Worf came aboard, and if Worf hadn't come aboard Jadzia would have waited for someone else she was interested in to show up.

However, According to Ezri Dax, Jadzia enjoyed being chased and flirted by Julian though. It no doubt would have happened if the timeline went differently. I really do always wish that they got together and It really was a possibility.
 
She probably enjoyed the game of flirting but felt they didn't have the makings for a relationship.
 
For Julian to work with Jadzia they'd have to go through more phases to redefine their relationship. As it was just a 'Guy who hit on her a lot then matured' it wouldn't have worked.

They could have made it work, but their character arcs would have had to go down very different paths.
 
I wish the writers had done that though.
There was a chance of it in "Babel" when someone wrote a script for Julian & Jadzia to fall in love because the Symbiont goes missing but no they replaced with a piece of crap episode that I do not like and makes no sense.
 
I think Keiko and Miles were a good couple. Married people do have disagreements, at time very serious ones that can't be solved by some deus ex machina. There's give and take involved. The Station is not a good place for a botanist, so when they moved to the station after a few years she took a botany job for a while and then came back. Then it was Miles' turn for a while. Then back to Earth at the end of the show. But they didn't not stop loving each other or split up, they continued to get along on important things. I think that's a better model of a marriage than one or the other giving up their career completely for the sake of the other.

Oh, and it's also a good thing to have close friends besides one's spouse. Looking to the spouse to be the only close relationship one has isn't healthy.
I couldn’t agree more.

It was nice to witness a real marriage on Trek. Not every second is pure bliss. It’s hard, but it’s completely worth while.

Out of curiosity, any female input would be appreciated here?

I wouldn’t want to be alone with him in a turbolift. That’s all I’ll say on the matter...
