Any comment that starts “I don’t want to be rude BUT...” isn’t worth your time. Anyone who follows you on here and/or Twitter knows you are equally fair to Charity and Vanessa, whether that be praise or criticism. Just keep doing you, there are a lot of us who appreciate what you say and do!

In all honesty I’d never really examined how I react to things that happen on the show or to particular characters. I don’t feel like I’m unfair to Vanessa. However, while I was feeling introspective, I did come to the conclusion that I probably identify with Vanessa more than I identify with the other characters. So, if I am harsher on her than on other characters (which I’m not convinced of), then it’s possibly because I recognise her flaws in myself and am being self-critical. I had written that in one of my responses to the anon, but then decided their question did not warrant a response involving my own psyche. So you can have it instead 😉

What!? Anyone with eyes can see the love you write for both of them! In fic and on Twitter! What a knob!

Anon: Classic attention seeking!

I think we all feel pretty much the same.

At the end of the day the people in charge of Emmerdale are the ones making the decisions, we can try and make sense of what happened but the truth is that we’ll never know why they chose to end Vanity’s story the way they did. I guess they decided to take Charity and Vanessa in different directions and Vanity wasn’t in their plans anymore.

I also relate to Vanessa more than Charity (even if Charity makes my heart pound��). I know the struggle Vanessa has gone through re her sexuality. I came out late (later than Vanessa) and experiences the fear and ultimately the joy of living my truth and finding the love of my life. Thank you for always responding to me, I’m so new to this fandom and to Tumblr that I always think people are going to ignore me!

I can’t think of a better character to identify with than Vanessa. I adore her. She has such a good heart. Don’t get me wrong, she makes mistakes but god she is brave and kind. Respect to you @thegirl20.

No kidding. Also identify with Vanessa more than Charity, personality wise. (Also short - shorter than Michelle by 2”).
