User blog comment:The Sam Puckett/iLost My Mind did not need a kiss/@comment-3094133-20110816011317

I actully don't think that Freddie's in love with Sam, yet. Please don't kill me, I love Seddie and iLMM, but I still think so.

I believe that he likes her, alot, he obviously can see her as his girlfriend. But he's not in love with her. Maybe he sees potential in her, someone that he could fall for, someone that he's slowly falling for. (I don't know how to express myself better, sorry) I mean, he thought that Sam hated him, so if he had any sort of feelings for her, he would probably push them away. But when she kissed him, he realized that she does not hate him at all, and he could start considering her as something else then just a best frenemy..I mean it's pretty common to date someone you're not in love with, but that you like a little, and then you end up falling deeply in love with that person. :)

Also, Nathan didn't know that Freddie liked Sam before iLMM, he didn't know that he was supposed to portray him that way. (Of course Dan could've told him to act jealous, caring etc. but maybe he didn't think of it either)
