Yes that's the thing with Soap Writers, some storylines they like to explore it in depth other storylines like say Aden going to counselling sessons, they like to edit the bits out they don't think is neccessary. But then some people will get upset by that, that they didn't explore it in alot of depth. Sometimes they need to shorten the storyline because they have other things in mind in terms of the storyline.
I don't think it's the characters fault (even though they aren't real ) It's the writers. They are the ones who decide to cut short certain scenes, and they chose what is shown and what isn't (like more than one counselling sesson say at the clinic for Aden).
