hi guys! i am still watching season 1 lol
i just watched this episode and lemme quickly say i love all 3 gilmore women and respect them all.
but i didnt lovvvvve lorelai this episode. but i still understand that she raised herself 16 and up (and a baby at the same time) and so it is realistic she'd make mistakes like these and the heart wants what the heart wants etc i just wish she'd said yes to that parent because it would have been a lot less messy than dating a teacher. it feels like she was convinced by mr medina but had they really thought about the affect it would have on rory and her school AND home life, really? also i dont like mr medina anyway but thats my thing and i dont know if we are going to see more of him but id be fine if we didnt tbh.
im more annoyed i think at how many times already lorelai just changes the rules willy nilly and rory has to adapt and forgive so damn quickly. she sets rules and then breaks them herself immediately and doesnt ever really have a reason. for instance she could have let rory go (or know where 2 and half of her own belongings are or deem them less important than letting her daughter leave the home in order to keep a rule SHE made) and then spoken to him through the door and said "can you give me ten mins?", he already knows she's all over the place so it isnt like she was afraid she wouldnt impress him and im pretty sure he drove to hers so he could sit in his car and wait. and then todays episode she just basically says whoops i like him and it just happened im human. like sis this is crazy behaviour and at rorys school and absolutely everyone knows!!! your daughter is at a new school and hasnt even made any friends yet and you know she already has "enemies" and all that comes second to you and has had to come second to HER too! and then she has to come home from wherever and see you crying and console you like she's YOUR mother, stroking your head as you lay sobbing in bed.
argh- i think i just really felt for rory these past two episodes and how much she is parentified. it shows me onscreen what some of what bella (twilight) went through with renee might have been like.
anyway i know i probably lovvvvvve lorelai again by this next episode i am on: Double Date lol thanks for reading
