This scene is a great example as to why I think a lot of us should have seen that Rory and Dean would never really work out, no matter how many times they tried their hands at being a couple.

Dean is a small-town boy who has no aspirations to change that status, and Rory is a small-town girl with big-city dreams. Both Emily and Richard are right in their assessment of Dean in the fact that he and Rory would never work because he would only hold her back. Dean represents Stars Hollow, a world Rory loves but seeks more than, which is why staying with Dean would be settling, and no granddaughter of Emily Gilmore settles.

That lady behind Dean in the second frame is me....

there is only one thing that I want to point out. It was Rory they corrupted. They made her fall in love with the bad boy and then because of her attraction to said bad boy, Dean ended up getting jealous and honestly, who in the frak wouldn’t? “you love this girl with all your might and being, you are afraid to loose her and it had already happened that Rory lied to you and you two broke up for a bit and then got back together. You’re insecure.” So, in the end the writers fucked up the best relationship on the planet but they also had to because of the simple fact that relationships in High School don’t last. Which is kind of bullshit, because sometimes they really do last. Though to be fair it was just… messed up. all of it.

I completely agree with what you’re saying regarding the corruption of Rory’s character. Throughout the show, we see countless times that Rory very clearly doesn’t know how to handle her feelings or relationships. Thus, she ends up leading people on, destroying her own romances, and even cheating. I think this was a totally the writers trying to overcorrect Rory’s character, as she was such a symbol of perfection that it was almost unrealistic, so they gave her a major flaw, the incapability of expressing her true feelings.

However, despite my not-so-loving opinion of Rory, I still don’t think that she is the only one to blame. I think we definitely see Dean’s character somewhat fall apart into nothing more than a whiny, possessive, and annoying boyfriend, which is not what he was at all. Even when in a similar situation with Tristan, Dean handled himself better.

Why bother with all the medications and remedies?

When clearly the sleep deprivation can not be healed...

And every passing year it only grows worse.

Causing my body to scream in agony.

Just please let me do something. Anything. Because another night of this and I might actually begin to lose my shit.
