Guiding Light 1997 14/10 pt. 5

Dinah is right. Cassie did come between them and Hart needs to face it. Yeah, ironic to think Cassie ends up married to Josh.

@Robansuefarm lets not forget dinah's dubious nature, sure cassie's prescene caused a stir in thier relationship, but dinah did decieve hart on many times particularly taking birth control pills behind his back

[Robansuefarm]

@gct89 Hart didn't fall in love w/ Dinah's honesty. He liked her scheming and was an equal partner in several of them. And if honesty in a relationship is the measure of success, he certainly didn't trade up w/ Cassie who was lying to him about something or other the entire time they knew each other.

[gct89]

@Robansuefarm yes but dinah's scheming went a tad too far here. i believe cassie was genuinely more of a match to hart than dinah. hart wanted to settle down, dinah didnt that is what ended their relationship, it would have ended even if cassie hadnt shown up

[Robansuefarm]

@gct89 Probably it would have ended. Hart spent his entire time on the show torn between two women. He would have found somebody else. It was a fatal flaw. He might mouth commitment, but he couldn't do it.

[Robansuefarm]

@gct89 My point here though was that Hart was being drawn to Cassie for whatever reason and telling Dinah she was crazy when she called him on it. He reassured her again and again and then ran right back to Cassie. She was the third wheel in their relationship. Dinah might have lied (usually w/ a good reason that traced back to the insecurities of her childhood), but Hart brought a third person into the relationship, but kept denying it.
