home Hannah Balsley TEWWG Janie & Tea Cakes response I think that their relationship is just another fun love for Janie. I feel that when Janie falls in love it is too quick to even call love, more of a crush. For example, she doesn’t even know Tea Cakes for an hour and is already in love. Another problem that I have with their relationship is that he is much younger than her and has no money. This could lead many people to believe that he is using her. When Joe died she felt free and ready to experience life the way she wanted. Joe never let her do anything that she wanted to do and made sure that she was there to serve her. Janie sees something in Tea Cakes that sets them equal. He treats her as a friend and tells her that she can do anything, unlike Joe who treated her as a maid.
