The year that Emma and Neal first met (2001) was also derived from that one central fact (the Curse having been cast 28 years previously on Emma's birthday), as was Henry's age at the beginning of the series.

Emma being 18 at the time she conceived Henry is also a fact that's been repeated numerous times throughout the series to date, and is supported and reinforced by Henry's stated age at the beginning of the series. His stated year of birth (2001) also supports and reinforces the idea that Emma being 18 when she gave birth to him is a factual 'pillar' upon which much of the series' overall narrative framework has been built to date.

Really? The Curse was cast the night of Emma's birth, and lasted 28 years!? I had no idea! Thank you so much for telling me!

It has never been stated that Emma was 18 when she conceived Henry... probably because it makes no sense. You claim they share a birthday: That Henry was born on Emma's 18th birthday. For that to be true, Emma would have had to conceive him the same day she birthed him.

I am going to unfollow this thread, as it's pretty clear you are not interested in any viewpoint but your own, which you present as fact, even when your own statements are contradictory. Since you are not interested in an actual debate, and I don't have the energy to continue this "I'm right, your wrong, here's more ways my theory can be right but I'm not listening to yours!", I will be moving along.

Seriously, are you AtDoc? Your theory and your way of presenting it are extremely familiar.
