About my stance on Supernatural drama in fandom  



I am first and foremost a Dean/Jensen fan and a Misha/Castiel fan. I detested what Jared did by calling Jensen out and not calming 'his' fans out on his social media before contacting Jensen, it caused enough drama and craziness among fans that were friends with each other that liked a certain actor. I actually lost a few friends cause of it but got one back. I fucking hate drama like that, we don't know the damn actors. Yes we LOVE them for what they do, yes some of us may of met them. Do we actually know them?

No, I doubt it maybe some fans actually might but lets be honest most of us don't and I highly doubt they remember most of us that pay up the yin yang to meet them for a few seconds for auto or photo, some fans are lucky if a celeb actually does. If you want to play games and hate on a actor just cause two actors had a fight or a misunderstanding without getting the facts instead of going to social media, then please do not add me. I am tired of toxic fandoms. Yes I followed what was going on and I saw that Jared apologized for posting it without contacting Jensen his 'friend' about it first, but the damage had already been done. If you don't like me after this section on my add me post, feel free to unfriend me. Were all allowed our own opinions. And if you want to ruin a good friendship with me over actors then fine so be it. I'm just tired of this drama the boys put behind them coming between fans. If they can make up and get along after a misunderstanding, guess what? We as adults should be able to as well.

So inconclusion. I'd love to add more Supernatural fans. I'm a fan of the show, I don't really care for most actors or actresses, yes I have my favorites. But I'm not totally obsessive over them and what goes on in their lives other then their next projects. I'm just a fan of their work, not their private lives. I don't mind if you are, just don't expect me to comment if you update about their lives that they post on social media, children and what not. I'll only mostly comment on posts you do about their work, artwork of them or pics you post of them.

Am I a Jared fan? No, not really to be honest. No disrespect of him and no it's not me being mean (been called that for not liking his stuff, low and behold I have a dislike of something huh?) or just being a Jensen fan. I've watched quite a bit of Jared's stuff, while I respect him for Supernatrual and his acting. It is not my cup of tea sort of speak, I have not found anything that I've watched that I actually liked of his. Closest I've come to is Gilmore Girls, but not for his acting, didn't care for his character much I liked the girls better. Though I need to continue on that show.

No this is not aimed at anyone on my list (Which is sad I have to put this, but yeah).

We can all agree and disagree and choose actors/actresses over friends you have had for a long while or short while. This post is also to not make anyone upset or angry. It's just me hashing out my views and feelings on the subject. I'm just glad I am finally out of the online main fandom though I still love the show and those who were in it.



For these reasons I am not into the Supernatural fandom anymore aside from the few friends I still have and making graphics for my comm, otherwise that is it. I'm tired of the drama.

If you are still here after that rant and okay and want to be my friend, then please by all means feel free to ask to add me. Though if you do hate Jensen cause of this, no doubt I probably will not add you. But feel free to ask, just to be sure. And again no this is not aimed at anyone on my list. I may even loose friends after this post. But if I make new friends that like SPN, I feel like I should post my views on it. It's been a while and should of done it before. Were all free to have our own opinions on the matter. But I hope to still keep the SPN friends that I have.

I am rewatching Supernatural right now and have since found that I love Dean's character more and Jensen himself as an actor. I have seen Jared's projects more but I do honestly care for him as much as I thought I did. I do think Jared was one in the wrong for how he went to social media before going to Jensen himself. He should have kept it all off of social media in my opinion, but that is how I live my life, you have a problem with someone, you keep it to one on one private conversations. And as a celebrity, he should have said something to his fans about how they are acting towards someone he considers family. But I am sorry you are losing friends over this. this is not something you should be losing friends over. True friends stay through all your different opinions.

I need to rebinge again, thinking of watching the xmas episode this week. I dunno why I fell for Dean first, Sam is usually more my type. Like Stiles in Teen Wolf, though I also fell for Derek. And Stefan in The Vampire Diaries, but then I fell for Damon. Lol. I like Sam, don't get me wrong. I just can't get into Jared outside of Spn, sure he's a great guy but that. That's like taboo to Sam's fans and I get called mean and not trying while I've seen plenty of his stuff, he's just okay to me nothing to write home about.

OMG, finally someone that is a a Jared fan and agrees. That's exactly how I felt but I kept getting called out for voicing my opinion that you have. Agreed, he should of and yes agreed on that. I know he did say something after when it was escalating but I could never find the posts again, might still be up there. It's like he posted that the fandom went ape shit on Jensen fans and then the next day he posted to be kind of something to everyone and he made up with Jensen (if I'm remembering the post correctly). I heard Jensen got death threats? But I could be remember incorrectly. I'm just glad the new show is not loosing viewers cause of this. I just found it really funny when I heard the cry out of Jared fans not wanting Jensen to cameo or anything cause of it's Jared's show and he needs to 'shine' and have his own thing. But low and behold if Jared gets upset cause he wasn't informed or asked to be included in Jensen's project. I was like 'can't have it both ways'. It's why I don't comment on celebs stuff on social media, cause I see and hear them attach constantly on people for their opinions. Bad enough I lost a few spn friends cause of it just for voicing my thoughts on the matter back then.

but nice that your re-watching it. And kudos for giving Jensen a go. I really like both of them, I'm just more lover of Jensen and his work. :) But I have mad respect for Jared (even though lost a little after the social media thing).
