was wrong of her but I don’t get the sense that the writers were trying
to quick fix their relationship. It feels to me more like they were
representing how relationships play out sometimes. It’s not unusual for
people who are generally decent to do something inconsiderate when faced with
an emotional hardship they don’t really know how to deal with. The
typical reaction is avoidance and I think that’s what the writers were
showing. I could definitely be wrong but this show has a pretty great
track record of depicting relationships realistically. As a result,
characters are gonna make bad decisions sometimes.
