When Spin goes, I go. After 30+ years of watching GH, it has come to this for me, Spin is THE ONLY character/story on the current canvas that I have not seen done before and done better.
Bradford Anderson & Damien Spinelli is the perfect pairing of character & actor. I love Spinelli's vulnerabilty & his self-doubt. I love that though he is socially inept, without a suave bone in his body, he is kind, gentle, & genuinely cares for people around him, & notwithstanding his ineptness, the people of PC have taken him in & with few exception treat him with dignity.
Spinelli is the moral compass and "truth-teller" of the canvas. As ridiculous and off-base as he seems to some, there is great depth, truth, & insight to what he says. Unlike many in PC, Spinelli understands forgiveness, and he treats women with respect & decency. He sees life is short, and in his own odd way, he tries to honor life's brevity by going after what he wants, regardless of the likelihood of success or degree of attainability. He knows Maxie is "out of his league" by societal standards, but he loves her with his heart, body, & soul. He wants to spend his life with her, so against all odds, Spinelli has plunged headlong into pursuing that. Is he crazy, naive, & stupid, or is he brilliant, wise, & courageous, or some combo of all of the above. The answer is "I don't know," but the character compels me to keep tuning in to find out.
Spinelli is a deeply fascinating fictional character. The character was purposely designed to be misunderstood in much of what he does and says. I realize this character makes many fans feel uncomfortable because he seems so different & so frustrating compared to stereotypical, stock characters. But, how we as individuals interpret Spinelli has as much to do with how we perceive ourselves as it does with what we think of Spinelli.
Like Paris Hilton, I adore purse puppies, but the new purse pussy is to die for! Huzzah for Y&R's Stacy Haiduk, (Mary Jane Benson) for sharing the Daytime Emmy Red Carpet spotlight with her purrrfect co-star Kitty Kitty. MEOW!!!!

What if Maxie IS NOT LYING? Here's an interpretation in small words, logically progressed, consistent with the past year of Spixie & suitable for flow-chart or Power-Point for those requiring visual enhancement.
1. Fact: Maxie has no problem lying. She has said so herself.
2. Lying to Spin at the docks would have been the simplest, easiest, most direct path for Maxie to have avoided her current dilemma.
3. If Maxie is willing to lie now, why didn't Maxie lie to Spin at the docks when he asked her whether she would ever feel about him the way she feels about Johnny.
4. Maxie's non-reply (silence) to Spin at the docks was THE TRUTH, but not the truth proclaimed by JoMax fans. Maxie does not feel about Spin the way she feels about Johnny. Maxie is IN LOVE with Spin, but only superficially physically attracted to Johnny. Spin, like much of the audience, assumed one thing when Maxie's silence meant another. Miscommunication = Lifeblood of soaps.
5. Maxie directly evaded Jason's real question.
6. Maxie THINKS she knows how Spin feels about her, but what SHE thinks is not how Spin feels. Maxie is saying & doing things based on her incorrect assumptions, & Spin is acting on his incorrect assumptions about Maxie's feelings as well. Both THINK they are correct; neither is.
7. Both are acting & reacting based on their own insecurities. Spin is acting based on his belief that he is not hot, in the way he thinks Johnny is. Maxie is acting on her lack of self-esteem believing Spin could not feel as deeply for her as she feels for him.
8. Maxie's comment about "faking the physical" means she is willing to "fake" ONLY physical, superficial desire for Spin, when really SHE feels MUCH MORE; however, Maxie is willing to downplay the depth of her feelings for Spin because now that she has seen Spin's reaction to her with Johnny, Maxie WRONGLY assumes that Spin only wants the physical that Johnny was getting. Jason is correct; that's not fair to either.
9. Underlying ALL of this is Maxie's view of herself. Maxie never believed she would find real, true love, & even if, she did, it would not be returned. Maxie believes her entire self-worth revolves around her sexuality, & she doesn't believe she is "lovable" beyond sexuality.
A careful reading of what has actually been said & done, makes this explanation as plausible as the JoMax interpretation, and at the end of the day, perhaps closer to what will play out on screen.
