LOL James.
To be fair - these chapters are about 1/2 the length of the LTL chapters...
Sara - I don't see it as him telling Clark to fall in love with her, but rather how does he expect the relationship to work - on any level - if he's hanging on to Lana and doesn't really know Lois and she doesn't know him. Getting to know each other much better is necessary for them to eventually love each other the way they need to and Jonathan's suggesting that. I don't think Jonathan expect Clark to snap his fingers and change things, but how can Clark expect things to change if he's avoiding Lois. At least that's how I see it.
More later.
