If Laura is so GREAT the show needs to stop teasing us with Cory and Bradley because this is the angst I live for ! It’s tortureeeee
loool Ikr??!! ALL THE PINING AND THE ANGST. Make up your mind, TMS, because this love triangle will be the death of me. But of course it is like this, because this season has been all over the place. The moment you think you have a character figured out, they throw another curve ball and it changes your whole perception.
And this has been especially bad with Bradley and her relationship with Laura. As I've said before, I don't trust Laura - her conversation with Chip last episode, when she mentioned Maggie, only reassured me she has her own secret agenda. Despite that, and despite their incredibly cringy start, I think Bradley and Laura had some good scenes these last two episodes, that showed us they are/can be happy together. (Although some already pointed how Laura could've dealt better with Bradley's feelings after coming out, but it was a stressful situation for her too imo). How real Bradley feelings are or is she just using Laura to escape her loneliness, *I* don't know, because it has been surprisingly hard to read Bradley this season. I wouldn't be surprised either way. Still, they could be good together.
Having said all that...they certainly don't have the development (and chemistry) that Bradley and Cory have, lol. They have a relationship that was built, first, on friendship - and a healthy and necessary dose of flirting and sexual tension. They went through a lot together and they both care about each other. Yes, Cory did something bad last episode, he broke Bradley's trust in a way that deeply hurt her, but it's not something unforgivable (imo). I think they could come back from it. Maybe not as a couple (yet), but for sure as even stronger friends. He clearly loves her and will always be there for her. It's also interesting that the episode not only ended with them, but with a scene where Cory is the one that managed to offer some comfort to Bradley, that knew the right thing to say to make her feel better.... So, yeah, I have no idea what they are doing to us but... not all hope is lost?
