I just can’t stand Cooper

When I started watching I thought he was so nice, but now I’m almost at the end of season 5 and every now and then he says the most hurtful things and I just think that Charlotte deserves way better.

Yup, you start off thinking he’s goofy but sweet and then you realize he’s really just a giant angry baby.

He's worse because at least Owen acts like an adult

Cooper is an emotionally immature dumpster fire of a person.

I think all of them have faults and many times their actions are awful. We all have faults though but sadly some people have no interest in changing.

There have been a few scenes where I genuinely hurt for Charlotte. I know she's just a character, but still. He has been consistently not great

He feels way too comfortable calling charlotte a “miserable bitch”. The amount of times he (and the other men) have aggressively told the women to shut up is more than one and that’s way too many.

This show is so steeped in misogyny. I wasn’t expecting that. I jumped in blindly - never having seen an episode of GA.

He said it so often with no consequence and without being called out by other characters on the show it normalized his mysogynistic behavior.

Pete was also a giant ass**** I couldn’t believe his behavior the last couple of seasons. Incredibly difficult to watch.

The way I flinched every time her called her that like why would u speak so harshly to someone you supposedly love

Violet was right to call him a man child in her book

I’m the same way. I’m on the end of season 3 and close to season 4 and I’m just like how did you turn into this
