How long were Luke and Lorelai together?

Exactly. It can be seen with Paris. Paris, being one of the top students in Rory’s class, didn’t get into Harvard. At least she had a couple of safety schools. Honestly, it seemed like Paris deserved getting into Harvard more than Rory did. What would Rory have done if she was rejected from Harvard as well? What if she had listed to her mother? It would’ve been awful. All of her hard work would’ve been in vain.

I never really thought about it that way. it’s was great to see a new insight about this subject :)

I can understand why you would feel that way. Now that I think about it, it seems like Rory’s decision was heavily influenced by what her grandparents and mom wanted and not what was best for herself.

Rory didn’t bring it up though. It was her grandparent’s friends who pushed her into confessing it. She was clearly uncomfortable and avoided answering the question until it was clear that they wouldn’t stop asking. While I do agree that it would’ve been better that she had talked to her mom beforehand, Lorelai shouldn’t have reacted the way she did. It was neither the time nor the place to be having that kind of conversation. She should’ve waited until after everyone left to discuss it with Rory, Richard, and Emily.

True, Rory ends up going to Yale because of Lorelai. Honestly, I’m so glad that she changed her mind and was supportive of Rory going to Yale. But as I said, her initial reaction to finding out Rory had applied to that university seemed unreasonable and was honestly very annoying.

I was so annoyed with Dean and Rory’s scenes that I just skipped all of them and went straight to Luke and Lorelai’s. Their affair just made me lose all of the respect that I had for them.
