User blog comment:Heimdalsgate/Why is Dean vulnerable?/@comment-1975828-20160205110347

"He is weak because she is weak." Sounds interesting.

I don't know. I mean, Dean has been through a lot of bad stuff, even recently, what with the confrontation with Lucifer and his attachment to something he doesn't even like.

He probably feels emotionally weak, tired, of his job and life and he just wants to let go, like Amara promised he could if they became one.

Maybe he's still sick, like you said? But I prefer the idea of Amara's weakness leaking into him.
