tbh same

[@lakeshow-vq1rm]

Betting Issac to bleach her hair and his self centered attitude was disgusting. Him sleeping with best friends and making out with Paige randomly is a major red flag, but him telling Jackie he wish she never came and telling Alex I’ll just wait on her and she’ll come to me and him betraying Alex at the end of the series after telling him he wouldn’t ever do something like that intentionally is irredeemable. I can’t be partial nor will I take his character seriously

It makes me more annoyed that Cole tells Jackie throughout the season that it is wrong for her to date Alex even though she likes cole, but the fact he says that while also leading to Erin for like half of the series while sleeping with her best friend.

Now I know this is a fictional show and Netflix will try to spin this into some kindve good girl change bad boy love story but in this society we live in that hardly ever happens. Majority of the time the bad boy sleeps with her and kicks her to the curb for another chick or just drags her alone much like how Cole did Erin. We value loyalty in women and honesty.

In my opinion, both boys were bad options. Alex saw Jackie as a prize and used her to gas his ego because he felt like his brother was better than him.

[@lakeshow-vq1rm]

@@juniiebuggI disagree. Alex over did the pda but it wasn’t because he thought she was a prize, he did it because he was insecure. And he had every reason to be insecure. How would you feel if you saw your girl making out with your older bro/sis? Things like that have a lasting affect and I’m positive it wasn’t easy to get over especially at the age of 15 which I assume that’s when it happen. Alex treated Jackie like gold. If anything Jackie treated Alex like crap. She lied to Alex and cheated on him. The main problem with Jackie is exactly what you said and that is she treated him like he was an option.

TEAM COLE ALWAYS !!! KEEP WATCHING!! Over Thanksgiving dinner, while everyone was trying to decide what was best for Jackie to stay or go to NY, Cole was the only one who asked "what she really wanted".Jackie's confidence in every conversation with Cole leaves Alex behind. Cole is Jackie's greatest confidant, the best conversations are with them, that's why he spoke to her from the fireplace, they did flirt. The intensity in looking at each word. Unfortunately, Jackie doesn't have that with Alex. It's clear that in episode 5 Cole has already changed, until he sees her kissing Alex. And in episode 6 Alex also threw his relationship with Jackie in Cole's face to provoke him also because of Paige. Alex knows that Cole also likes Jackie from the beginning.

[@bookjunk]

I really liked Alex at first, but he turned out to be just as bad as Cole, just in different ways. They're both such bad (potential) boyfriends. Practically all the romance on this show is terrible: Warning! Spoilers ahead! Alex & Jackie: he doesn't tell her about Paige and then chalks that up to his insecurity, which leads to her having to comfort him. WTF? Then he doesn't call her when Nathan is in the hospital. Nathan, who lives in the same house as her, who is her running buddy etc. but Alex "didn't want to worry [her]". WTF? And then he tells her he loves her and immediately tells her "she doesn't have to say it back" with major emphasis on 'have' as in 'you don't have to, but you really should and why don't you?!' Again: WTF? Jackie isn't blameless, btw. When Cole tells her she's with Alex, because Alex is safe she basically confirms that by telling him that she's with Alex because he doesn't treat women the way Cole does. The bar is low, people. Cole & Jackie: I must be too old for the Cole-effect, because he just comes across as mean and not all that charming. The whole I'm-hurting-so-I-hurt-everyone-I-love shtick is not appealing to me, at all. Plus, he constantly tells Jackie that he knows her feelings better than she does and gets mad at her for flirting with him. I know we all know that she has feelings for Cole, but it's mainly Cole flirting with her and not the other way around. I'm struggling to see what she's doing wrong when she spends almost as much time with Nathan or Danny as she does with Cole. She's clearly connecting with him, but not necessarily in the romantic/sexual way Cole wants. There's very little active flirting on her part, is what I'm saying. Will & Hayley: I wanted Hayley to run for the hills for the majority of their relationship. Even moreso when they have a relationship-ending fight, break up and then get back together only to decide to immediately get married. No problems are fixed, let's get hitched: sigh. But then she turns out to have some sort of secret up her sleeve with that Morgan-text. I can't blame her, because I think Will is the worst. Alex & Kiley: There is zero indication that Alex knows she has feelings for him (she certainly hasn't told him) yet she's quite often annoyed about him treating her like just a friend. Girl, you've friendzoned yourself. Be his friend or tell him you like him. Pick one. Nathan & Skylar: Their relationship issues are more typical teen stuff, with coming on too strong, not knowing how to handle that intensity and therefore avoiding the other person, using the coming on too strong stuff in order to reject someone while actually you're just a little hesitant etc. That's all fairly innocent, but the show then weirdly depicts it as Skylar being in the wrong because apparently someone writing a song for you is always romantic. You are not allowed to feel that's too much too soon. If you don't think that's romantic then there's something wrong with you! Tara & Nikhil: Tara is super into Nikhil, upset when he's leaving, she even tells him off for not asking her to come with him, then she spends one day around Richard and clearly is very conflicted when Nikhil announces his decision not to leave for her. Ugh, whiplash. And then there's the Walter parents, who are doing a pretty good job as parents and not such a good job as partners. She's a prize-winning vet, but half the time doesn't charge people for her work. (This is such a female-coded thing: like she's so kind, but also as if her work is charity or something. It's not. She's running a business. She needs to get paid. In actual money. Even if they didn't have 11 kids to feed!) And he keeps the financial troubles from the farm from her for quite a while. I get both of their motives, but it's not good relationship-stuff. Communication is so important.

I liked, I commented and I done been subscreebed.

she’s an icon. a legend. and she is the moment.

The fact Cole gives off Conrad so much (ex footballer grump, situationship minus the daddy issues ofc, and no real ex) meanwhile Alex only shares the insecurity of jer😂 and he’s actually sweet, too sweet to the point where he’s a pussy but at least he’s not a manipulator lol)

[@marieceline6969]

Okay, so not that I agree with the reasoning, but, I feel like the two brothers pining after you fantasy exists because it feels like an intense signifier of desirability - you’re so hot and interesting that two people can’t help but risk a bond as important as family.

An hour long video?!?! You guys spoil us 😍😍😍

[@demontrash]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@carleytimmerman6451]

Cole is a walking red flag

[@Itzezyyyy]

We love the drama between boys, esp brothers since they hardly have drama irl😂 and either way she’d be part of the family so works out I guess and better than actual incest amirite😂 (also loved the fosters at 14 which was when I also discovered wattpad lmao so it feels familiar along with TSITP😂)

[@simping4fictionalmen]

you guys should really watch the imperfects and deadly class their sooo good xx

[@rachelolivia3541]

If this was a high budget movie the mom would definitely be Jessica Chastain

[@angelinafranov4934]

I love these two! Glad they reacted to this show

[@bethrunkle76]

Cole and Jackie will destroy Alex!!!!!! And potentially the rest of the brother's relationships with each other

[@cheri_17]

The way people are team Conrad and not team Cole when they are same print different font is crazy

[@spacedoutsprout]

Everyone simping over Cole and all I can think of is how he's built like Timon from Lion Kinh

[@andreananan7963]

Seriously they made nice quiet Alex look like a creep and Cole a womanizer all nice and good and wants us to feel sorry for him...urrrrgghhh. These wattpad stories are weird I guess...I wish they made the endgame was alex
