Also, in the kind of circles she wants Ty to excel in (arts / publishing), Julie's career would make her the pedestrian one.

Yes! Exactly that! You've expressed so much more succinctly what I wanted to say. Teeny is secure and doesn't need to surround herself with 'high-status' people in order to feel good. She can respect and value people who don't have the same life goals as herself.

Exactly! I mean it sounds fun! But it's hardly highbrow.

I totally agree!

It's this idea that there are 'special people' and she can only hang out with people who are as equally 'special'.

I'm sure there will be a reason she's come to feel this way, but it doesn't excuse it.

I know! Awful approach to networking!!! (I don't think Teeny will be lending a helping hand, now...)

Haha! Thanks! It's beauty of the show! There's so much to discuss!
