#I’m tired of people being so single minded when it comes to gale smh

Saw a tik tok saying Gale was a ‘pick me’ and can I just say- BITCH WHAT. The tik tok was about how he ‘literally said he wishes he could be in more pain so Katniss would love him🙄’ ……WHAT. He said she only notices him when he’s in pain- NOT THAT HE WANTS TO BE IN MORE FOR ATTENTION. This was so cleARLY pointed at KATNISS, who was struggling with her feelings. Gale pointed out something OBVIOUS. Katniss only wanted him when he was in pain because she loved him and couldn’t stand seeing him like that, which got confused as potentially other more ‘romantic’ feelings for him. Katniss is a protector, this is made clear from the BEGINNING. FROM THE FIRST PAGE OF THE SERIES. So this way of thinking makes perfect sense for her even if she doesn’t get it for a while herself. Anyways. Gale wasn’t a pick me. Some of y’all need to think of him as an actual person instead of listing as many horrible things about him as possible just because he was in a ‘love triangle’.
