“Besides,” Jonathan says, breaking the silence after a moment, “if she doesn’t love Clark Kent, she doesn’t deserve Superman.”
Well, now, isn't that the truth?! Clark's in pain right now, wallowing in rejection, but he ultimately needs to reclaim his sense of self. No one should define themselves in terms of another. After he processes his pain, I hope that Clark will see the wisdom of Jonathan's words. As RuPaul says, "If you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you gonna love somebody else?" Lois and Clark should each be asking themselves that question at this point in your story!
