Thinking about how Jake and Amy and Troy and Abed both did “I love you” “I know” :D

I know Brooklyn 99 has some issues but after watching other sitcoms lately, something I really admire from the show is Jake despite being immature and childish, is never creepy or a douchebag. Like even in the first seasons, when Jake's whole character is about a adult guy who "doesn't know how to grow up" it's never an excuse for him to date someone inappropriately. And this probably shouldn't be a lot, but I've noticed there are shamefully a lot of shows from 90s/2000s where there's a plot where a 30 something guy dates younger- college age girl. For example I'm watching New Girl for the first time, which I don't think is even that old, and there's a whole plot in the first season where Nick dates 20/ 21 year old women because he isn't mature enough to date women his own age. He literally says how amazing it is because "women that age are so easy to impress" and it's just ick. And I mostly liked Nick until that point.

It had me thinking about Brooklyn 99 though, because it would have been so easy for the writers to do something like that with Jake. I even think if he was written by another show, the writers would have done that. But not only does Jake never try dating someone inappropriate, the women he dates before Amy are actually more mature than him. Sophia is the main one I think of. She is arguably more put together and sure of herself than Amy is at that point in the series. It means Jakes growth in maturity over the course of the sure isn't correlated to the woman he dates, and it also means the reason Jake and Amy work so well together is because they fit with each other. Jake could have chosen Sophia and they could have had a decent relationship but he chooses Amy because she's Amy it makes it so much sweeter.

i think there is beauty in soulmates, and beauty in rarity at the same time;

the fact that chidi and eleanor found eachother in every single universe and every single reboot is simply the most beautiful beautiful and epic love story

but i think it is equal beautiful how jake and amy would probably never found eachother if they were in slightly different circumstances, so how beautiful and unlikely that this life ended up happening and it's all they could have wanted.
