Poll Terminal DDX?

LOL "sexual dysfunction." Something tells me this ain't gonna be a problem.

Actually, I'm not sure I see *any* of these options as a threat to House/Cuddy. If anything, I think both of their emotional baggage - not John House or Stacy related - but their own feelings of doubt and self worth might hurt them. But really, I think they can get through most anything.

"I think they can get through most anything" tbh I totally agree. Like, I know a lot of people here expect them to break up forever and not last, but tbh I can't think of a reason, other than death, for that to happen. I think they would have a few temporary break ups or something but they are people whose emotions run so deep that I believe would be able to get through anything.

his "need to negate everything"

i guess i could have put 'control issues' but i think he's still learning how to deal with people

[wrapped_wires]

i guess more specifically what i mean to say was his inability to truly say what he means, and he just pretends like the things that matter to him mean nothing. i know he's working on that...

I'm with jhsc22. I don't think it'll be anything related to Stacy, because she's ancient history. Besides, Cuddy is the one that House has wanted for (depending on your point of view) between 6 and 20+ years, and that counts for a lot. He got off Vicodin partly because of her, and he didn't even think about thinking about getting off Vicodin when Stacy came back into his life; enough said. As for John House, the way I see that is that the old man is dead, he's not really House's father, the damage is done, and he's not thinking about that anymore because he doesn't have to see the old bastard. Also, House has been really busy with a lot of other, much more important things since John died, so not that I don't think John is an issue, but I think unless something very specific happens to trigger those memories again, they're locked in a box and House isn't going to open that box unless something makes him

I think that, after the initial infatuation and excitement subside, House will have a hard time "participating" in the relationship as much as Cuddy needs him to. He's essentially a loner, someone who lives for his one passion (remember 'DNR' from season 1?) and usually puts "the puzzle" first. He may be capable of changing his priorities for some amount of time, but not in the long run, because that's against his nature. As Stacy mentioned, she felt lonely with House, because there was no room for her. And House was aware of that, which is why he sent her away. And I think it's going to be the same problem with Cuddy, he might wish that he could change for her, but he most likely won't be able to.

Another possibility: Maybe House will find after a few weeks/months that a relationship doesn't make him any happier than being alone. So he'll still be miserable and additionally feel like a burden to Cuddy, than get annoyed at having to constantly feign happiness, and in the end he'll be passive-aggressive about it and shut her out.

I love this so much. you verbalized my mental thought processes that I didn't know I had.
It's so depressing, but I feel it's exactly this.

I agree he is a loner, but I see this point differently. One of the strengths Cuddy brings to the relationship that Stacy did'nt have is that she is part of his world of medicine -- in fact she is his facilitator and involved in what he is doing to solve the puzzle so unlike Stacy I don't see Cuddy feeling as alone or left out. Also, we've seen that Cuddy really loves and appreciates House's insane genius to be the guy who solves those medical puzzles -- thats why she's so willing to go out on a limb for him, so during those times when he may put the patient and solving the puzzle as his priority, I think Cuddy will understand and frankly, agree with that. The medicine is a bond with them that Stacy did'nt have and maybe could'nt understand.

And I don't see anybody sending Cuddy away. nobody puts Baby in a corner....
