Precisely. If one takes the story as written, then Sam obviously doesn't want Jack enough to do something about it. And this is the woman who is a pilot, has a PhD in astrophysics, and stood up for herself in a masculine environment. Sam has faults but being a milquetoast isn't one of them.
And that is FINE in my book. OK, Jack is sexy and maybe she'd like to jump his ass and shag him until he can't remember his name -- but she doesn't want to as much as she wants her career. And Jack obviously doesn't want to "tap that" as much as he wanted to go sit at a desk in Washington. Yeah, whatever. I'm totally cool with that. Really.
I completely hate that the writers play that coy card about ship to cater to current fans. It undermines Sam's character, it makes her look absolutely pathetic when it comes to personal matters, and it leads to things like the Pete stupidity. *sigh*
I think I'm preaching to the choir, though, so I'll just end my rant here. :D
