So...4.14 “Code of Silence”

Not counting Oliver, person number 3 knows about William’s existence. Said person encourages Oliver to CONTINUE KEEPING WILLIAM A SECRET FROM FELICITY (supposedly) FOR THE CHILD’S SAFETY.

Now let me get this straight: Barry knowing, Thea knowing is totally cool but TELLING FELICITY WOULD PUT WILLIAM IN GRAVE DANGER?? 

Yeah, because Felicity is not the person who has trusted, supported and LOVED OLIVER QUEEN FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS. Right? She would just tell everyone and put William in danger! RIGHT?

WRONG x1000000000000

Now to the “Oliver can’t tell her because Samantha wouldn’t let him have a relationship with his son otherwise” - explain to me, how EXACTLY would Samantha KNOW if Oliver told Felicity? Is Samantha an Argus agent? Is she psychic? Is she a witch?? 

To those of you who may say that he’s doing what Samantha asks out of respect, well...what respect does she deserve from him, exactly? He might have been a playboy all you want but it takes two to tango. She vanished and told him she had lost the baby. He came back from the dead but still she NEVER said anything and when HE found out she just acted like EVERYTHING was owed to her and that OLIVER was the one at fault.

Oliver is just SCARED. Scared of Felicity’s reaction. I think he still had the chance to tell her and not have the thing blow up in his face (even during this episode) but his fears combined with Thea’s absolutely ridiculous “pep talk” worked against him doing the right thing.

That being said I strongly believe that Oliver and Felicity will work this out with time, like the exceptional individuals they are. I have faith.

Expressing how you feel is not a bad thing. I want to be able to tell someone how I'm feeling but no one seems to understand. I can't just keep it to myself any longer. I live with constant anxiety and depression. I feel so useless and sad one minute and become moody to someone I love and then freak out because I realize the impact I had on them the next. Then the cycle continues and I just feel so sad and terrible about hurting them with my harsh words.

It sucks and just for one day I'd to live normal. Not with these constant problems and to not feel so nervous like I might throw up or just hide. Not feeling like my chest is being pushed down by heavy weight, and not crying every moment that doesn't go right.
