It's soooo crazy how when Thornton proposes and Margaret shoots him down like a dog in the street, she thinks to herself "I never liked him. I always acted totally indifferent to him. I never thought about myself and him." But then after they have no interaction with each other for a while after that, she thinks "I miss our antagonistic friendship :/" and then, after that, when she knows that he knows that she committed the unforgivable and shameful sin of Lying to a Police Officer she deadass thinks to herself "It seems so hard to lose him as a friend just when I had begun to feel his value." Like GIRL! The revisionism!!! The self deception! Is the friendship you had with Mr. Thornton in the room with us now?

#north and south #deeeeeeply obsessed rn with Margaret's lack of understanding of her own emotions #especially when she thinks that she totally knows how she thinks and feels and thinks that it's consistent.....#still formulating my opinion but I think she was actually deeply attracted to him and lowkey obsessed with him from the get-go #but that premise was to uncomfortable to consider for more than a pico second so she shoved it deep deep down #and proceeds to act chaotically and inconsistently towards him while thinking she's being very right and rational and consistent #tbf she's very busy trying to hold her family together through tragedy after tragedy using only elmer's glue and prayer...#no time for romantic revelations en esta economia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#Margaret Hale the woman that you are............#txt
