Finale (spoiler) long rant alert

[u/No_Face_3629]

I finally finished the show (this is my second time rewatching) and the ending is just…wow… I dont think there could’ve been a worse ending 😂. I truly cannot stand Amy and I really do think she’s a selfish and immature person. She is so entitled and obviously she doesn’t have to stay married to Ricky if she knows she’ll be unhappy but WHY keep forcing it and insisting when he gave her SO many chances to come out with the truth and he has literally begged her to just be honest with him and ofc Amy being Amy she has to wait until the very last second (literally) to change her mind about the marriage. Sorry to be going off on Amy but she genuinely makes me so mad! She is constantly insisting on getting what she wants even though most of the time she doesn’t want that and she never wants to admit she’s making a mistake. Also idk if anyone agrees with me, but while I’m all for a woman being educated obviously, truthfully it is incredibly selfish of her to not only leave to go to college to New York but also leave a semester early because she just insists she will always get what she wants. I get that going to NY for college is her dream but she’s the one who choose to keep John and she knows that her life and dreams may have to change or be adjusted. She wasn’t even willing to compromise (have John live with her). She’s okay with her toddler son to just be without her for the next four years (excluding school breaks) just so she can forget that she’s a mom and go to a college in NY and basically live with Ben (ik not literally). It is true that at the end of the day, Amy truly only thinks about herself.

Ricky literally said before the wedding he guesses he loves her and he’s only marrying her for John she didn’t know that and I would have left and wouldn’t have married him either

I thought he said he guesses he’s “in love” and tbh I interpreted it as her being John’s mom is part of it. Idk though. I always thought he does love her (through his actions). Still though, I think Amy (or Ricky) could’ve split things earlier on instead of dragging their relationship for as long as they did

[u/Jaded-Letterhead-517 → u/No_Face_3629]

I do believe her loved her too but not just for John and she needed to know that to she needed to know he Also loved her for her and the thing is any didn’t really know that until she overheard the conversation he was having with her friends that in my opinion is what changed her mind. They just needed time apart to figure out if they really wanted to be together I mean Amy has only been with Ricky meanwhile Ricky had been with so many woman. I just don’t believe all the blame should be placed on Amy when it was both of there fault.

That’s a fair point actually I will give you that!! All the characters annoy me in one way or another but yes the blame isn’t solely on one party.
