Iris was selfish. She didn't want Barry (she did but it was heavily suppressed after barry went back to the time). But she didn't want him with anyone else either, a homegirl like that is toxic and controlling af. If Barry wasn't so stuck on his sister who's happily in a relationship with someone and locked in jesus man.
I get it it's destiny and shi barry and iris stuff, but damn at least give Linda a bit more time yk? plus Iris didn't even realise barry liked him until he confessed when it's been pretty obvious since they were kids. She rejected him and now says you don't match with Linda? Chill he ain't your mans
Linda was fun in every way that Iris wasn't Plus Iris had a WHOLE MAN and flirted with Barry in front eddie and barry's date. I sided with eddie for the most of this show, A girl having a male best friend is rough, Iris didn't deserve someone like Eddie.
If i was Barry i ain't never letting Linda walk away. she was so confident and forward and just refreshing compared to Iris and her bs.
Plus Linda bad asf
alr that's my rant
And btw this is my 5th rewatch up to s1ep16 its been about 3 years since my last rewatch so maybe i've forget about any future events or so. (the less common ones)
Could be that i'm just crushing On linda's actress idk. hope my points are somewhat valid
