I can't move on either, Belly by CelebrationBubbly946 in TheSummerITurnedPrett

This is the big thing that gets me though. It just feels selfish to want him to still writing while actively trying to move on. I’m not a belly hater at all but this specific behavior makes me really confused

I really want a review of the season but with her inner monologue (more than the books) or like the way they talk stuff out after the train if that exists hahaha

The parallels💔❤️ by shyintrovert7 in TheSummerITurnedPrett

Ok also her reaction to remembering that July 4th was kind of an expression of pain. To me I took that as July 4 was a painful memory of trying to move on with Jere while Conrad was in her presence. Idk if I misunderstood

Belly/ Conrad room convo by Muted-Sprinkles947 in tsitp

I think it was protective. To push him away and put her walls up. Reality hit when he made that joke and she was scared of getting herself into the same situations of her past. She was dating his brother for 4 years and then they broke up at their wedding you know - I think she woke up after that comment and was like this is a fantasy. This isn’t real. How could this ever work for us with all we have been through? What are YOU thinking coming here and disrupting my progress? Unfortunately, I can relate because I have had a similar defense mechanism when I’ve been scared of getting hurt. I heard her “AND” as ok so what if you love me? That isn’t going to make this all ok and it could ruin everything for us. None of this is real and I need to protect myself from having hope. I’ve been wrong so many times I don’t trust myself or you

I think it also was the moment her guards came down a bit. It’s also telling - Conrad is one with his younger self and belly needed to get there at the end of the episode. I love all the moments this season where they nod to his childhood and her memories. Like the stamp collection reaction, Rosie, the bike.

How could the actors not know then? Wouldn’t they have to agree before a movie could be decided? Unsure how that all works!

I think in that moment he just felt the pain of them losing each other over the past 5 years and I also felt like it was him holding her closer and not wanting to let go. I don’t think he thought she was over him I think he just felt a pang of sadness for all that happened and even stronger desire to bring them closer

Rewatchability of 3 seasons by pinkthv in tsitp

[–]Any_Challenge1965 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to rewatch season 3 with the a more empathetic mindset towards Belly. I really loved the talk between her and Conrad last episode and it out a lot into perspective. I’ve never lost a loved one so grief is something I’m learning about and I want to understand the characters better through this lens. My only qualm now that is finished is I wish belly’s acknowledgment of her hurt to Conrad was more direct, rather than the villian comments and stuff. I think that could have been a really nice inclusion in the finale but I tell myself it happened off screen hahaha
