CBS' online Daytime Forum gets it wrong again, but it's not just Luke and Noah.

While the Fan Panel results of which story keeps bringing viewers back to ATWT has not been posted yet as of this writing, the rest of the main page has been updated and at first glance I was excited to see that this week's poll (from today through 1/18) is about Luke and Noah; however I am frustrated at the framing of the question and made me think twice about voting at all. Here's the link in case as well as the question as posed.

I understand that creative writing not easy and what is obvious to us may not have not ocurred to the writting team as they may be trying to churn out product to keep the show going, esp. with the strike; however.....

So many of us seem to be in agreement that Luke and Noah's "happiness" has nothing to do with whether they are allowed to "move in together" (as currently being framed on the show, which means living with Luke's shotgun carrying grannie) or having them become the next Gwen and Will, who received special legal treatment and were allowed to marry before they were of age!

The show itself put forth the idea of them moving into the dorms, a really cheap and already existing set. I would throw them a bone of not sharing rooms (nor think that they should) to keep things light  and go from not as much as sharing a third kiss to acting like a couple who have dated and know one another so well (including morning breath, having gone to second base, or even spent one night in one bed) to contemplate the next step of sharing quarters.

When AE has a chance to interview the creative team, I would be interested in learning how this "moving in together" is going to work. Will Luke and Noah be allowed to share a room upstairs? Or was the Gnat and Faithless will share another room reference an indicator that Noah (who's been sleeping downstairs) will get a separate room upstairs? If they are not sharing the same room, then why not the dorm?

If I were straight fan or a parent, my answer would certainly be they should under no circumstances live together. Even as a gay fan my answer is the same, but would I be voting against them by essentially responding no to what the poll frames as their "happiness?"

It's only a soap, but the answer is so easy. Send the guys to the dorms with other college age people on the show. They can keep they guys chastity belts in check via roommates and can even introduce any meledramtic weirdness that they want to now possible impose on Noah. Can't they wait for this neediness to take place after they truly act like a couple. The they can have anything as simple as a smile from Luke to another guy turn Noah into Col. Meyer is they want to be nasty. If they don't they can introduce the normal jealousy that may take place when we experience what may be arrested puppy love.
