do you think jules clocked the undercurrent that nate was referring to her with "you love who you love"? or do you think she thought that was really his response to maddy's departure? i mean, i believe she did. i just wanted your interpretation.
i think she did, yeah. i think both nate and jules are resigned to the fact that they're always going to be kind of in love with each other, but there's too much baggage between them for it to ever come to anything. something i really like about their interactions post-shyguy reveal in season 1 is how they were so open and vulnerable with each other over text, but there is so much ambiguity and so much left unsaid in their face-to-face interactions. they can never get that intimacy back, but they still know each other better than anyone else so when nate says "the answer is too stupid and simple" and "you love who you love" jules knows exactly what he means.
