Peyton had her selfish moment imo, but the fandom overblows them while trying to minimize and excuse away other characters' selfishness. Especially Brooke's. I always when I see her called selfless because she was very selfish and self-centered, especially in high school. The girl couldn't even control her "but what about me?!? poor me! *pouts/stomps/whines/ cries*" when other ppl were undergoing serious traumas that did not affect her as much or at all.
I agree. PH's friendship should have been worked on more, especially since they both share a deep love for music, that's their link and it should have been made stronger.

On the Brooke side, I think she was kinda immature and selfish in the first 3-4 seasons. I also think she got better in the last part of season 4 and then in season 5 she finally grew up a bit, but she was funny too and gave the show some lightness. I found it really terrible that she threw a party in honor of Keith's death and got mad because Luke was too upset to dance and stuff.

Not saying Peyton is perfect or anything, she also has flaws, but I guess she was more sensitive throughout the whole seasons, and when she was a bit more selfish than usual it was after a bloody long time of sadness and tears, so let the girl be selfish for once!
