What I find strange is that la mif know that Lola was crying the other day, and saw how Maya is hurt. So why they are so sure it’s « over over ». Like Bilal talked about How Lola will be with someone else, Redouane saying that Maya should meet new people.

Can they just say « you could talk and makes things better between the two of you, as you both hurting right now ».

Idk the break up seems so definitive. And imo Lola is appearing as the bad guy because no one seems to know that she broke up with Maya because she didn’t felt loved. Jo witnessing Lola saying hurting things to Maya, Tiff and Max saw the panic attacks…

Also they portraying the relation as toxic, as a spectator it’s hard to root for Mayla relationship since they are fighting since season 7 and don’t seems to know how to communicate.

this is longggg so i did a readmore but i’m on mobile so it might not work lol. i basically disagree with everything here, sorry 😭

“why are they so sure it’s over…why not suggest they talk” they literally already have? whilst maya doesn’t even accept the trailer breakup happened, la mif spend all of ep1 accepting it happened but thinking it’s temporary and can be undone. there’s a clip where max says he doesn’t want them to end up like his parents (divorced) and suggests maya texts lola. then there’s an entire clip dedicated to jo, again, telling maya she needs to reach out. when they discuss it at ping pong, they’re being light and casual. it’s only after ep1, when lola texts the group chat saying it’s over, that they take it more seriously. and what are they supposed to do then? push maya to ignore lola’s boundaries? she’s doing that by herself shsjsks

i don’t think they’re portraying lola as the bad guy. i don’t think anyone’s been shown as the definitive bad guy tbh. yes, maya’s issues are the major cause of this breakup, but i think the narrative’s been empathetic to her by immersing you in her POV. the whole “we know something maya doesn’t” thing works really well with that: we know not texting lola won’t end good, but maya thinks she just needs to offer time/space, and so we feel sorry for her, etc. the clement study clip is the most extreme maya’s been (biphobia, showing up uninvited, being insulting and dismissive). i think having lola react as she did in ep2’s finale was basically their way of balancing the scales of “toxicness” and saying that whilst she’s shown immense growth from s6, she still has a lot to learn: she had every right to be mad (maya just insulted her in public days ago, she’s under the assumption that maya is now interfering with her family by spreading lies), but she could’ve paused when maya denied the thierry thing and heard her out. she could’ve not cut maya off. she didn’t, and i don’t think any conversation they had that night would’ve been productive anyways, but like…they’re both flawed people lol. idk what to say. i think how they both act in arguments is incredibly in-character and doesn’t make them the bad guy. we’re only seeing jo/tiff/max see just the maya side of things bc of the pov format, but we know they’re still friends with lola and, like in the fence clip, are defending her and mostly think maya’s in the wrong. and yet! they haven’t actually taken sides! they’re treating both of them with kindness! la mif clearly don’t think there’s a bad guy either (the point of bilal’s comment on lola dating other people was more about maya’s biphobia imo, and the panic attack tiffax witnessed is also not entirely about her relationship either but that’s another topic lol).

“as a spectator it’s hard to root for them” i think this is an individual thing tbh, bc i don’t find it hard to root for them at all. i mean do i want them back together in this episode? absolutely not lol. any relationship they would have rn would be unhealthy as hell, which is what we’re seeing, and is why they’ve broken up. the show is literally saying love and history isn’t enough: both of them need to work on things, process their issues, seek help, learn to communicate better and exist without each other etc etc before a relationship would work. as for it seeming definitive: i can’t tell the future but i just don’t understand why anyone thinks they won’t be endgame lmao. i mean i wouldn’t even mind that much if they stayed friends and i still think they’re endgame. apart from s1 which was following the eva blueprint, when has skamfr not had an endgame? they brought back the old gen in s7 just to confirm an endgame (arthur/noee) and create another (alexia/new bf) lol. this is the first LI season, and their current most popular couple, and the writers love cheesy romantic moments. even if it’s rushed as hell, even if it doesn’t feel earned and is written terribly, they’re going to be endgame 😭 you’re free to feel however you want about that.
