Wednesday is painfully incompatible with both of the boys but is surprisingly compatible with Enid. Here’s why I think that is:
Let’s start with Tyler. Aside from the OBVIOUS reasons why Tyler would not make a good boyfriend for Wednesday (the fact that their relationship was based on lies, deceit, and manipulation, and the fact that he tried to kill her…)
Let’s talk about why Wednesday would not make a good girlfriend for Tyler, IF Tyler was actually redeemed. Now this is based on the theory that Tyler developed a split personality from the torture that Laurel gave him and the “real Tyler” is still good and separate from monster Tyler. If Tyler is going to fight off the monster and the brainwashing, he needs someone who is patient and compassionate… not someone who is focused solely on punishment and will torture him with electro shock therapy and bring up his mom’s post partum depression in front of everyone.
As for Xavier, he’s made it pretty clear he thinks she’s toxic. Now, sure, he still likes her, or perhaps he likes the idea of her in his head… but once the thrill of the chasing Wednesday wore off I can see Xavier feeling under appreciated. Xavier needs someone who appreciates his art work and his passion. Wednesday is not that person. If they dated I can see the “You’re toxic” arguments breaking out constantly and Xavier would get tired of her being so cold and calculating, and Wednesday would get tired of him being emotional and whiny. It just wouldn’t work out in the long term.
Now when it comes to Wenclair… I know people will argue that Wenclair is toxic and that they are incompatible because they have completely different tastes and personalities. Also since Enid is emotional and Wednesday is cold and calculating, it’s just a recipe for trouble, right? I mean they did have a whole falling out over it, didn’t they?
If Wednesday treated Enid the same way that she treated the boys, I might be inclined to agree. But when it comes to Enid… Wednesday is just different. Not a different person, but rather a warmer, more sensitive version of herself.
Wednesday was more than happy to show her lack of appreciation for the things the boys made her- Xavier’s drawings, and Tyler’s latte art which he said took him over a week to perfect. But when it comes to Enid and her snood, even though Wednesday hated it, she did not want Enid to know. She said she would wear it for a more special occasion, like a funeral. When Enid said “We can wear our snoods!” Wednesday did not hesitate to put hers on. Was that done partly to get Enid to do what she wants? Yeah, sure. But you CANNOT tell me that either of those boys could get Wednesday to wear a snood.
Now about that falling out, it was bad, Enid called Wednesday out on her toxic, manipulative behaviour, but they made up in the end and came to a mutual understanding. Wednesday also seemed clearly more upset after the argument with Enid than she had been after the boys were mad at her. She appeared to actually CARE when Enid was angry with her, even though she tried and failed to act like she didn’t.
As Enid said, “we work. We shouldn’t, but we do.” Enid stands up to Wednesday and mocks her lightly, but she also accepts Wednesday for who she is. Wednesday is also more kind to Enid than she is with most people. Her words to Enid are genuine and heartfelt. Enid brings out a “spark of warmth” in Wednesday without forcing it. And that’s why Enid is the only one I can picture Wednesday being in a healthy relationship with.
