I only even mentioned it because I do see this a lot from shippers, but I'm not "discounting" your opinion because of it. I think your opinion is based on a misreading of what was shown in the episode and the movie, not on your shipper status. Frankly, I don't see Sara as being portrayed as any more needy than Sam was sometimes portrayed. Loving someone or caring for them isn't being needy, whether your name is Sam or Sara (or anyone else, for that matter).
But I still think I have a legitimate point of view. I do not like the portrayl of Sara and I do not think their marriage was on a good footing when Charlie died. I think Jack had created an idealized view of their marriage later on that the alien entity picked up on because of his own guilt issues. I think Sara was being awfully pushy and needy when the entity showed up after she walked out. I don't buy the if you loved me you would follow me crap.
Others are free to construe Jack and Sara's relationship however they like, but I personally am glad she was never brought back.
