madelen

Thanks for starting the new thread, Maz!

That's exactly how I think!

~Maz~

yeah it's just someting about them isnt it madelen? I mean i adore Logan and Im loving RL, but for me Jess was Rory's perfect fit. He understood her and he challenged her in a way no one else did. They were young and they made mistakes, and if they meet up again in a few years, they should realise the mistakes they made as kids don't have to keep them apart, because they still fit together.

rorygirl

they understood each other like nobody else could!

*shiny girl*

You're speaking out of my heart!!!That's why I still hope he's coming back someday and will be the one...could have been inthe fourth season but that was to soon,now in the next season it would be perfect,wouldn't it?

Thanks for starting the new thread,I the title!!!

MariSk8

Yay! You used my title idea

Ok, the "yay" was a little bizarre

madelen

I love R/L together too, but I'm still hoping for Rory to end up with Jess. Like you said, they were a perfect fit.

Yeah. I just reeaallly would like to see them sit down and have a calm adult conversation about all the issues they had.

22 Umbrellas

I can definitely see that happening in the future. I think they just both needed some room/time to grow up separately before they could be in each others' lives.

I never felt one way or the other about Logan. Probably mostly because I quit watching the show before they started dating. But he seemed alright in the finale.

~Maz~

Logan is a great character Susan, and i almost want him with Rory forever, but then i can never let go of my love for RJ. Logan is perfect for her now though.

They def both needed time. Jess was too angry. Rory was too nieve. They needed to grow up a little and learn more about who they were before they could be together and make it work.

So, anyone got any ideas about how they want RJ to get back together? Like when, how etc?

Hot Chocolate

I completely agree with you Maz! I adore both RL & RJ... I'd be thrilled if she ended up with either... they both suit her so well...

madelen

Wouldn't it be great if they met again at Lorelai and Luke's wedding? And then notice that they still have feelings for each other...

Or if Milo doesn't return, I would be just as happy with the show's finale hinting at the possibility that Rory would go find him and try to patch things up. I'll take anything!

-Katie-

So I am writing what may turn out to be a Rory/Jess fic after S5 so if you guys could be awesome and review it on the site, I would be thrilled.

And It All Goes Up The Cherry Tree

madelen

Hey Katie! I just read the first chapter and I really liked it. Would hav reviewed it on the site, but I'm not a member...

Looking forward to more chapters.

Hot Chocolate

Oh I will definatly read that Katie!

*shiny girl*
