“I am so jealous that i will mock her and also put the doubt in there” (:P)
This.
Pretty mild tactics, when you consider what’s been deployed against her before this. Getting her to think about the flaws in her plan, but still leaving her to think about it for herself. Jealous, mocking and bitchy? Yes. Coercive and evil? No.
And that is why Eric will always be the better man. For Sookie or for anyone. He doesn’t seek to dictate. He will point out the fallacies, and he will keep reminding her that there are other options, but he will hold off even exposing Bill’s lies, because to do that would result in deep hurt for Sookie, and that he doesn’t want. Love is a selfish emotion, but there are degrees of that selfishness, and, ultimately, when it’s real, the person you love will be a consideration, not a means to a self-gratifying end. Which is what Sookie has always been and will always be for Bill, and which she never is for Eric.
