True but it’s still love, or was intended be, just not that kind of love. Did you watch Jessica Jones? Did you not, initially, think there was a love interest thing between her and Trish until the actual relationship came out in dialogue? Because that’s how all our entertainment media traditionally presents love, and that’s a problem. The femiverse vibes of that show spun a bit more reality into that piece.

So much breaks when things are not reciprocated. It sucks.
