In a post on the r/YoungSheldon subreddit, u/HotCreamx asked “Which friend/enemy do you think had the most impact on Sheldon?” Not only did Paige win the poll, she won it by a landslide, garnering 228 votes with the next highest number being Tam with only 94. “Paige thought (sic) Sheldon how to understand people better and she even made him more empathetic towards her, you can even tell how he cares about her.” wrote u/cookiesanddonutl.
Due to the impact she has on Sheldon, some fans are still trying to figure out why Sheldon never mentioned her in his entire time on “The Big Bang Theory.” If she’s that important, why the omission? There are a few theories. In the r/YoungSheldon subreddit, u/Bison_and_Waffles posed the theory that Paige is going to die at some point, leading Sheldon to not be able to talk about her as an adult. Ana Dumaraog over at ScreenRant has a theory that, somewhere between now and the beginning of “The Big Bang Theory,” something happens with Paige that causes Sheldon to become the broken man he is when he first meets Leonard on the show. It’s possible that both of those theories are true and that something tragic will happen to Paige that causes Sheldon to mostly forsake human relationships in the future… but for now, fans will just have to watch and find out.
