The moment Iris West, a character from The Flash, said that she had a list of three people she would cheat on Eddie with, I wrote her off as a character I liked. From that moment every redeeming quality she had meant nothing. Yes she’s beautiful, smart loving etc. but at the end of the day, if you are going to chase after the next hot thing that walks by and CHEAT on your husband who you SWORE to love and hold, rich or for poorer, till death, you cross a line with me. I know that at that point in the series they where not engaged, but if that is not the end goal then what is the point of being in a relationship? Just to gratify your flesh? If that is what life is about to you then you need to leave good men alone. Not all men are dogs. Eddie proved that at the end of season 1.

That’s some heartbreaking stuff to be cheated on. Even the thought that the person I love is fantasizing about someone else would drive me insane. At that point, all the work you put into your relationship, all the GOOD women you may have rejected in the past just so you could remain faithful to that one person would become vanity and a waste of time just because she wanted a little bit of pleasure, but then again some women do not care about how you feel, and ultimately may have never loved you to begin with. A wise man once said,” sin may be pleasurable for a moment, but it’ll be pain for a lifetime.”

Faithfulness is fundamental in any relationship, and if you are unable to keep your attention on one man while you are in a relationship then you are not ready for a relationship in my opinion. I could never feel safe knowing that there are three other dudes my girl would cheat on me with. That would drive me insane. And Iris had the audacity to write a list of men she would cheat on him with, That’s just wrong on many levels. If you are a woman, ask yourself this, would you want to date a man who has a list of women he’ll gladly cheat on you with?

If you are a woman, imagine being married to a man you love, even barring his children, while he is lusting after women at his job, and then when you’re not looking he sleeps with them. Yeah he gave in and “made a mistake” as they would say in this modern era, but could you really forgive that? That’s some fowl s***. You don’t “accidentally” sleep with someone. THAT is a break of trust, and that’s why I have trust issues with women. I would be lying if I said I NEVER had lustful thoughts, but at the same token, the flesh and heart are two different things. People act like they have no self control and that they HAVE to think lustful thoughts about attractive people. People choose who they are attracted to, and just as easily as it is to like someone, it is just as easy to despise them given the right circumstance and they cross a certain line. A person can take only so much heartache.

Iris and Eddie were in a healthy relationship and with that comes a freedom to joke about anything.

In HEALTHY relationships, it is common for both people involved to joke about “a cheat” list. The reason being that both parties involved are aware that the other person would never actually cheat on them even if the opportunity were to arise.

It is naive to suggest that couples stop finding other people attractive once they fall in love. Other people do not become ugly in comparison just because your heart belongs to someone else. What actually happens is that you are able to walk in freedom with confidence because you know you have someone by your side that will love, value, and cherish you NO MATTER WHAT!

That freedom brings honesty.

True honesty. The type of honesty that goes deeper than expressing what is pretty and desirable. The type of honesty that will tell you when you stink and need to shower or brush your teeth. The type of honesty that will admit to being annoyed with you or angry with you or hurt. The type of honesty that will stay by your side when you are at your worst and help pull you out of it.

With that kind of honesty comes a willingness to talk and joke about everything because they will tell you everything.

It becomes ok to joke about cheating because the person you are with is so honest and real with you that you have no fear it will ever happen.

How I feel about this character

All the people I ship romantically with this character

My non-romantic OTP for this character

My unpopular opinion about this character

Funny how Candice is always talking about how she’s hearing about things and always saying that she doesn’t know what’s going to happen with this or that or that they haven’t really explored this or that.  It’s like she has no fucking idea what’s happening. Notice how she never talks about the future of Iris on the show. Just look at the episodes; outside of the Linda/Zoom episodes it’s like they film shit without her and then turn around and try to figure out a way to interject her afterwards. The editing is so weird and her presence in some scenes is just superfluous. She has no fucking voice; she never uses personal pronouns like I or me or my. She’s a fucking token black and this show is completely disgusting for it.

I don’t know wtf is wrong with TPTB behind the show (and I’m looking squarely at the one that acts like he lives in DP’s asshole). Every time I read an interview about this show, it’s either Candice rambling about how she doesn’t know about something or it’s him and DP apparently doing interviews together talking about Caitlin. Her sidelining looks deliberate, especially with the way he’s always tweeting shady ass articles that attack her and always talking up DP like she’s Meryl Streep. I don’t even have to say his name because I know everybody knows who I’m talking about. Look at that last crap episode, which I admit I didn’t even watch because I’m sick of watching DP struggle with the material, but they built a whole fucking episode up around her mediocre, special snowflake, closetotheproducer self. Why the fuck didn’t they just hire DP to play Iris instead of baiting and switching people? Would have saved a lot of people a lot of time and energy. I wouldn’t have watched and therefore wouldn’t be annoyed now.

I’m convinced that her only purpose on the show right now is to usher in Wally and then they’ll completely erase her afterwards. I’m actually convinced they’re going to kill her off or something once Wally gets here and they’re just biding their time. Seriously, fuck this show.
