I feel like the problem with Dan and why people hate him (and Jenny) so much is that they don’t just act like the Upper East Siders. They act like them and then still think they’re better than them in some way because they’re “self aware” and the things they do “are no different than the horrible things they do to each other.” The difference is that the main friend group is always able to forgive each other and come together when it’s necessary. Dan is good at being there for people, but he’s not good at forgiveness. Even when he acts like he’s gotten over something, he still holds onto it and writes about it and exposes people. Yes they’re all guilty (except Nate) for exposing secrets to Gossip Girl for the world to know, but all they do is spill secrets, they aren’t the ones telling the world exactly how they feel about how horrible a certain person is. They say it to their face and then forgive each other. Something Dan doesn’t do. He hides behind a screen and forgives but doesn’t forget.

I don’t blame Dan though Dan and Jenny act the most realistic on this show when it comes to standing up for one another and the reason he isn’t as forgiving as others is because he doesn’t like gossip or being taken advantage of they aren’t use to that environment you’re right but I don’t think hating Dan and Jenny is fair either Blair, Chuck, Serena, and Nate did worse then them. The only thing Dan did worse then them was becoming gossip girl and spreading rumors behind their back that I could understand why he gets hate. I get why Nate punched him as well though.

Also it’s okay if Dan can’t forgive people right away like the others there’s nothing wrong with that and he shouldn’t be hated at all for that reason either

These people all did terrible things to eachother, but its fine, because they're insiders, but Dan writing the truth about them is a big no no.

Exactly! Every single word he wrote about Serena was true. Golden shell with daddy issues - empty, superficial, ready to jump the bones of anyone who shows her some love

It wasn't his story to tell!

dan so called loved Serena and wants her back but does everything in his power to expose Serena. might as well marry Vanessa if you don't like her.

The whole point of him sending that article was because he was like it better to be feared than it is to write a love note on the upper east side.

I'm still sad there was no Georgina Sparks spin off. She was the most entertaining character and Michelle was incredible playing her

Unrelated, but I hate how it can be years after they finished HS, and yet Nate is still dating petty HS girls. This man’s fetish was Constance Queen B’s.

I think they just needed a fresh new face to somehow keep it in high-school and he was the only guy available to date her

Like who? A married guy? Her bff's boyfriend? Much older dude with daughter much closer to her age than him? Ooooh wait... 😂😂😂

as if Serena didn't slept with her bff's boyfriend for a year, had an affair with a married man, and didn't test Dan while having other flings.

Yes, exactly! She should've ended up with Nate instead. Serenata should've been endgame... end of discussion. ❤

Dan always despised Serena.

More I grow up more I understand Bart. His son is a fuck-up, his second wife too and the entire gang act like spoiled brats. Dan actually made a grown-up move and dude gave him respect.
