Halfway through: what does it say about me?
I’ve been watching Girls for like a week or so and I’m halfway through, just finished season 3 and I’d like to leave some opinions about each character and in that regard, I’m curious what that says about me because opinions on character arcs here are very contradictory.
For reference, I’m 29.
Marnie - hands down my favorite character. Sure she’s flawed, acts privileged sometimes but she also struggled quite a lot, it’s also not her fault she’s pretty. 9/10 would befriend her.
Hannah - fucking hate her guts, both appearance and personality wise she reminds me a lot of my boss which I hate from the core of my being. I think she’s insecure and doesn’t know what she wants, she can be a bitch. 0/10
Shoshanna - a bit weird, I think she’s neurodivergent, but I get the feeling she goes after what she wants, strong-willed and focused. Awkward but with a great involuntary sense of humor. Organized yet a bit messy in some areas. I can see how she could wear you down, but I’d definitely love to have her around, seems like the kind of friend who would straighten you out if you strayed too much. 8/10
Jessa - captivating but she would drive me nuts with her chaos. Obviously I can see the deep trauma she’s been through but in real life, a person like her would tire me out so much and I just wouldn’t have the patience for it. Yet, I feel she’s got a big heart and for instances when you want to feel *free* you can definitely call her. 6/10
Adam - hot as fuck, not just how he looks, but the way he speaks, his whole character is greatly built, eloquent, well spoken. A bit of a bum though, the kind that thinks he is above regular jobs or becomes pretentious in his creative process and couldn’t live with that. Looks like an animal in bed. 8/10 would hit.
Ray - classic smart weirdo who somehow lost himself and became the pitiful loser. Clearly smart and educated, yet obviously doing pretty bad (living in his mitsubishi) and Shosh was right, he doesn’t aim high.
Elijah - I would vibe with him sooo much and would love to have him as my best friend. Shitty and inconsiderate at times, but definitely my type of person. 9/10
