Wilson is not being cruel. House is being a jerk as usual, and a crybaby."

I love House. I empathize with him and make excuses for him, and try to contort my thinking into the thinking of those who make even more excuses for him.

And then alieb42 comes along and tells the truth, and knocks sense into me.

YOU ARE AWESOME!

I don't know if House was pouty about it, but he sure was pouty during that scene. House isn't a crybaby in general, but he sure was a pouty baby in that scene.

I think I need to polish up my "House is Wilson's teenaged son" essay and post it.

I missed Wilson rubbing his thigh! Well, he walks in step with House, makes sense he'd subconsciously take on some of House's other movements.

The level to which some fans want Wilson to bend to House's whims actually scares me.
No joke, me too. It smacks of borderline personality disorder. What gets me is fans who assume that the character feels the same way they do - even when the character is saying they don't.
As for Wilson sacrificing himself for House's happiness, I keep coming back to that chilling scene in whatever episode it was where House found out Wilson pretended to talk to his dead girlfriend every night. Because one day Wilson will hold those conversations with House himself. Given their histories, age difference and lifestyles, Wilson will almost certainly outlive House. Then what?
I see what you mean about being pouty, but he didn't COMPLAIN which is what I associate with being a crybaby.
I noticed the thigh rub too, but figured it was an unconscious reaction of the actor's.
