Soap characters who didn't sleep with the same people as their family members

Credit to NothinButAttitude for suggesting this topic, and I thought it would be fun. Characters sleeping with the same people as their sister, mother, aunt, brother, father, uncle, or cousin is common on soaps, so can you name some characters who never shared with their relatives?

Sisters Mary & Siobhan Ryan (RH), MJ, Cheryl, & Kathleen McKinnon (AW) Annie & Dee Stewart (ATWT) as well as Meredith & Victoria Lord (OLTL), never swapped spit with the same stud.  And brothers Paul & Steve Williams (Y&R), Cass & Morgan Winthrop (AW), and Mac & Robert Scorpio (GH) have never been to bed with the same beauty. 

 

Honestly, Mary is a bit of a cheat since she died early in the run of the show, and Siobhan had a mild flirtation with Jack, Steve is a priest, and Meredith Lord was institutionalized before she could have many romances.

 

In the "sort of" column, we have (AW) John & Michael Hudson, (because John's affair with Donna was never confirmed on screen), and (DAYS) Bo & Roman Brady/John Black (both because Bo & Roman have never technically been with the same woman, and whatever John & Hope/Princess Gina did in that submarine didn't cause conception). 

 

This tiny list was compiled after an hour of searching soap siblings who were never in a love triangle.  It is very difficult to find soap brothers or soap sisters (ranging from twins to half-siblings) who have not infringed on each others territory.

The whole Spectra clan on B&B never shared any lovers.
Thank God the show never did a Sally/Macy/Thorne, Sally/Clarke/Macy or Clarke/CJ/Random Logan/Forrester woman triangle. (And ditto to a Massimo/Jackie/Ridge triangle back in the day

The only exception might be Macy and Darla who were both married to Thorne, but at least Darla wasn't biologically related to Macy.
Kimberly was briefly interested in Thorne, but that was more or less stalking on her side instead of a romance.

 

Did Felicia and Kristen Forrester ever share any lover? I don't think so, and they were hardly together on screen anyway.

Three more: (digging deep into the recesses of my memory)

Loving - The Donovan siblings Stacey & Noreen and Doug & Mike never swapped partners

Capitol - Trey & Jordy Clegg were never in a triangle

SB - Mason & Ted were the only Capwell brothers who never locked lips with the same lover.

Noreen wasn't around long enough ( in either incarnation), and she was a Vochek, Jim and Merrill's sister. She and Merrill (that lasted even less time than Noreen) didn't share anyone either.  II believe Noreen's main interests were Mike Donovan and DA Warren Hodges (though I may be wrong about Warren).

Agreed, Noreen is a stretch, given her lack of longevity.  However, I would also place Brenda and Julia Barrett in the same category.  Also, I ruled out partial siblings who never met until they were adults such as AMC's Skye Chandler & Hailey Santos, AW's Larry & Catlin Ewing or ATWT's Tom Hughes & Scott Eldridge.

No. I don't think either slept with Eddie. I think Katie tried and may have planted a condom to convince Georgia they had, and I think Eddie kissed Margo (and then Emily managed to convince Tom they slept together and Margo had gotten pregnant by him) but neither did. They made a HUGE deal of Katie being a Virgin when she slept with Simon (which was long after Eddie had left town). 

 

I don't think Lily and Sierra ever slept with the same guy. Although God knows ATWT came awfully close to Craig/Lily at the end. Unless Sierra slept with McCouch's Dusty, which I'm a little vague on. 

 

Carly and Gwen, ATWT. (And props to Jack for never dipping into Carly's gene pool. That's a rarity. Though he and Molly did once seriously dry hump once.)

No, although Brenda sort of flirted with AJ (who Julia had an affair with) before Sonny.  AJ was weirdly jealous of Sonny and Brenda at the beginning.  Julia also was implied to have dated Jerry Jax off screen in the 90's before CRAZY Jerry hit in the 2000's but they never shared men.

    • There was a rumor that Jean will die and that’s probably why she’s back then
    • There has been some confusion about Michael & facial burns. Please see this post: https://bsky.app/profile/shallotpeel.bsky.social/post/3lqkrryu54226 I've chosen to put this here instead of the Classic Thread because it is now with the appearance of recast Michael that this has come up. Different places online, including at least one podcast, remarks have been made about how remarkable it is that he is without facial scarring. Other fans say it was clear from the first that he did not have facial burns. What is included in this post is 2 screengrabs where you can see his face at the hospital & a very quick edit of that day in the hospital. 
    • Put me in the LOVE KMH camp. As a poster alluded to above, her detractors seem to come from people who first experienced the 80s Emily actress. And that's often the case with soaps, myself included. I enjoy the original actor so much that I just never take to the recast. However, KMH played Emily far longer than the original - for almost 20 years - and when she had great material, she was great. I get the sense she didn't like playing the whiny oh-woe-is-me Emily which was all the material she got from about 1996 until she took over the Intruder in late '99/early '00 and got to play a stronger kiss-ass woman who didn't care what anyone thought of her. (Some would call that a bitch but, if a man was in that role, he'd just be called a smart and savvy businessman.) Her relationship with Hal was great. The transformation was done realistically and I thoroughly enjoyed those years the best out of all. Once the writers decided to break up those two, they went back to writing Emily half the time as whiny and pathetic. I preferred when the writers made her stronger.
    • Hahaha - I do. I've always been the type, though, that can't miss anything. I get FOMO, so I'll not skip episodes or fast forward anything. There are only a few TV shows I've dropped because they got so bad vs. sticking it out to the end.  The promise that GL 1997 is better is what keeps me going. I especially want to see the fallout of Blake's lie about her twins and then Annie's descent which I believe won Watros's Emmy.
    • Rita's rape is an episode i constantly search on YouTube hoping one day that it will show up. I always feel like I may have seen it, but I was only 6 at the time and can never figure any of the things I have vague recollection of

        FROM THE VAULT: NON-SOAP DAYTIME RATINGS: HIGHLIGHTS FROM AUGUST 1973 & NOVEMBER 1973:
    • The rape was in 1979 after they were married. Blake was the result of Holly cheating with him while she was married to Ed. I believe she was born in 1975. 
    • No. Ed and Holly were married and having problems. She had an affair with Roger and that's when Christina--Blake--was conceived. The rape happened much later, after Holly and Roger were married.
