The way Rue is clearly still in love with Jules and wants her to move on from this stupid sugar baby situation with this old guy but Jules just gets so defensive and weird, literally slapping Rue just because she can't stand to hear the truth.

Rue was completely right, old guy would have never left his family and wife for Jules. Sooner or later he would have dumped her either way. He kept her as his toy in this penthouse and only came there to fuck her.

There was no substance, no depth, nothing to hold Jules there. Rue wanted to show her the truth but instead Jules just, once again, acts super immature and childish. Rue didn't do anything wrong in this situation. She simply explained wanting to get back together with Jules, living a better life.

Jules could have simply said she has no interest in being with Rue and end things. But no, instead she gave her false hope by sleeping with her, only to slap her in the end and be extremely rude and entitled.

Rant end.

Okay, I don't quite know how to put this but I'm not too appalled or opposed to the whole Aria and Ezra relationship mainly because of the actors who play them.

Let me try to explain: Their relationship obviously was terrible because of the age gap and Ezra literally using Aria for his book etc. And it's illegal to have a romantic relationship between a minor student and a teacher. It would have been legal if Aria graduated and only then got with Fitz. But this wasn't the case and he knew that she was 16 when they met. I'm not trying to downplay this BUT it was just a bit difficult for me to see her as a 16 year old teenage girl when both of the actors (Lucy and Ian) were grown adults and only had a 3 year age gap while filming PLL.

I know that in almost every movie or show about tennagers/highschool students said teenagers are played by older/grown actors. But when I look at Aria and Ezra I only see their actors, who are adults.

It would have been easier if they casted someone like the actor of Wilden (who's 10 years older than Ian and 13 years older than Lucy) as Ezra.

Maybe that's why I find it a bit harder to see this huge age gap when Lucy looks and acts more grown than her characters age. That doesn't mean that she's a bad actress. She is great at playing Aria and we do see Aria acting more immature and childish than Ezra.

I know it's all fiction and in real life this would be much worse because it would be an actual teenage victim and a grown adult on the other side.

And maybe it would have been easier if I read the books. That way I could have immagined Ari to look like an actual teenage girl.

I don't know if anyone gets what I'm trying to say lol.
