I feel so bad for Schwartz
Is Schwartz perfect? No. He has cheated and thrown drinks at his girlfriend, as well as his female friend Stassi. That being said, I think Schwartz is an all around good guy. He's polite, he's a good friend, by far the best looking guy on the show, and does a very good job at playing the role of peace keeper in a show full of people who live for drama.
It is so, SO obvious that he proposed and got married not because he wanted to. Schwartz either just wasn't ready for either of these things or knew he never wanted to do them, or just didn't want to ever do it with Katie. The downside of being calm and non confrontational is it makes people walk all over you.
I think Schwartz truly does love Katie, but feels they probably won't work long term. Because he loves her and hates confrontation, he just played along to satisfy her and his producers.
Same thing with Jax. Clearly they have a lot of fun together and love each other in a brotherly way, but Jax has done and said so much about Schwartz and was forgiven s easily because Schwartz is scared of arguing. Jax has done worse things to Sandoval that in my opinion are unforgivable, but at least Tom really let Jax have it for a while before resuming their friendship.
I sure hope that Schwartz gets stronger over time and that if he finds himself miserable in his marriage, he has the courage to leave. More importantly, if Katie wants to start trying for a baby before Schwartz is ready, I really hope he doesn't give in and become a dad before he's ready.
