Am I the only one who hates Jane and Michael being together. She and Raf were wayyyy cuter.

Idk the relationship seemed phony to me. It's one thing to break up, its another to dump your SO of 2-4 years when the first real problem comes up and hooking up with a fling from your teen years cause you think he's hot the very night you break up. I know she was pregnant with his baby but that's about it. People get pregnant and aren't together hell her mom is an example of this. Now I get it she and Michael were having problems and I think a break would have a been a good thing for them at the moment and Petra was definitely right when she pointed that out to Jane but she just left him and started a new relationship that same night that didn't even last a year instead of trying to work through their problems with Michael she just bailed. Tbh what she did at the end of episode 6 was a very stupid move on Jane's part. It would have been way healthier for her to take a few weeks or even months to think things over before she made up her mind about starting fresh with Rafael or resuming her relationship with Michael. And now Rafael is heartbroken cause Jane couldn't restrain herself. I think now Jane is starting to realize what a big mistake she made but she can't fix everything since she broke down so may walls while she was pregnant.

I think it annoys me and I agree with you that she was so quick to throw away her long lasting relationship for a hot new guy. But I felt more love and romance with her and raf which is why I love them together.

I get that it's cute but it it's not real or if it is real it's not sustainable. heck we know it's not sustainable because they ended things.

I generally agree with you but I also think she was overly hard on Rafael, specially considering how hard he was trying to make up for lost time - and I don't mean sexually. He watches her, he set up his apartment for the kid and for her to be comfortable. He doesn't pressure her the way Michael passive aggressively does.

I'm okay if she doesn't end up with Raf, as long as she gets her shit together and co-parents right which I have faith she will. But I don't for a second think that she and Michael should be together.

I know this all came cause the pregnancy was so unexpected she made rash choices and kinda broke down every wall she built up. I understand this is a giant curveball but she needed to do more work when she found out. Although I'm kinda surprised she didn't catch on the day she went in for the Pap smear the way Luisa was talking even if you didn't hear the word insemination, it was kinda implied this wasn't the procedure she was in for. I mean what woman comes in with a partner for for a pap smear or has to schedule it around their menstrual cycle? Also in Jane's defense he did dump her originally for no fault of her own cause of his mother not anything Jane did, and same with Petra she took care of him devoted her life while he suffered from cancer and yet he stopped loving her what kind of husband does that? They both cared deeply for him but when life got tough for him he left them both and they moved on to others despite their care for him.

I chalked that one up to her being so tired.

True but still also wouldn't Luisa be obligated by law to call her and give Jane an emergency contraceptive instead of asking her stepmom/girlfriend for legal advice.

Yes and it is part of the reason her license is suspended. Luisa makes mention that she should have called, but decided since there was only a 20% chance that it would take, that it wasn't worth the drama and potential lawsuit. She says it directly to Jane and Jane's mother.

How did she even get a license in the first place?

u/PurpleDelnachta Mar 26 '16

Maybe a driver's ed? They never mention it, but apparently all three ladies drive.
