Yeah, parents do that. Jess reminded Lorelai of Chris, so she was just trying to protect Rory from getting her heart broken. My mom did the same thing to me and me nearing 30 she still tries to over protect me. I think it comes with being a parent.
oh yeah. i understand the anger and her being upset, i do. i just didn’t like how she was so blind when it especially came to yelling and blaming luke for everything and saying that he didn’t have an obligation to his blood family -- who was a jerk to him but he still cared for him -- but he had an obligation to the people in the town instead.
even the rest of the town takes it overboard. like i understand they don’t like jess, but the kid wasn’t the devil and it was an accident. it happens. it’s probably one of the few times i sincerely hate lorelai because she keeps her hate goggles on the whole time. she doesn’t try to see it from anyone else’s point of view after the fact, even after she’s sat down and calmed down.
