Discussion: Reasons Eric and Sookie should be together...

"The most annoying thing about reading the books, the series and subsequent fanfic stories is how insanely immature Sookie can be. What I keep forgetting is that she's quite young, hasn't had many experieces and is involved with beings that are hundreds of years old. Eric out of all the Supes she's met seems to be very indulgent and patient with her unlike Bill who just seems mostly annoyed and exasperated around her. Bill lived in a time when women didn't have much independence and Sookie is nothing if not independent. It's funny that Eric's approach is suprisingly more modern than Bill's! I think he "gets" Sookie's tendency to be fiercely independent because, as CH said in thebooks, he himself tends to buck the rules. He's not the average vampire and Sookie certainly isn't your average human. It's good match and I hope it works out. "

"completely agree with you, honorable or dishonorable his intentions, Eric has always been honest with her, and sookie has accepted it, he never lied to her. . . When I saw the video "a taste of blood" I traveled a chill in the back and thought ...what the hell is this!!!!!….since when eric treated sookie that way… I really hope allan ball do not intend to turn eric into the villain of the series, in this clip the truth seems to want to put eric as the bad guy … that makes me feel quite sad … well i have to wait and see what happens … =(

this is the video....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OU0j0Y1IFyo"

"Lets not forget Eric tricked her in to marriage, and then gave her his blood when she was unconcious then while she lay on the bed next to sookie who was just unconcious a little while before and Eric is not even given her a chance to relax a few and he had sex with her...y"

"Yes he tricked Sookie into marriage, but the reason she feels secure and relaxed around him is the blood bond they share, but even without it i think Eric could have won her over from bill at some point "without trickery". And the last line of the 9th book leaves you hangin whether her Great grandfather was referring to Eric or Bill---Gotta love these books."

"i def agree with you. they are meant for eeachother.did u read all the book?"

" if you haven't noticed, every night they've had sex, she always feels better. whether that be the blood bond, or him just being amazing in bed, or both. it relaxs her."

" Eric is far more interesting and complex that with any other character. More possibilities to develop the story further.
