I would respectfully disagree that the storylines Raj has been getting are the writers not caring about his character. I think Raj has dealt with a lot with his selective mutism, and a big part of losing that has been demonstrating that not being able to talk to women was never really his problem, it was his own insecurities. Being alone for so long, Raj was left with a lot of time to fantasize and romanticize relationships, and now is experiencing a real ones and finding they aren't always ideal. I think it makes sense that Raj's road has been so messy - it really seems the only way to go when you get a character like Raj.
All to say, that I think it makes sense that Raj hasn't experienced much emotional growth in the last little while. I think it's going to be a long road for him. __________________

I envy your ability to make sense of this situation Brit, I really do. It's just extremely frustrating how his storyline is being handled right now. It's making me lose interest in his character.
Anyway, all I can hope for is for a turning point in this whole situation soon. I really think Raj has spent enough time in his current state and that it's time for some progress to kick in. __________________

I don't have a problem with the Raj storyline. I wouldn't say that I find it fascinating, but it's not bothering me. I think the feelings of the other characters - confusion/disbelief - towards Raj's behaviour, reflect our feelings. It's not a sweet and charming story arc, and it doesn't make Raj look very attractive, but it's one of those messy real life things; things happen that you don't see coming, people act in ways you wouldn't have expected, and you often can't see where things are heading. We'll just have to see how it all plays out.

So how many girlfriends does Raj have right now? Do you think Claire broke up with him?

There's been no indication of that so I think he's still with both women. Including Claire and Emily, he's had about 4 official girlfriends so far, I guess.

Hopefully he'll get back on the right track now.
I liked the revelation that he's single again and hasn't told anyone. It worked well because it fits with everything we've seen so far this season - him spending a lot of time with Howard and Bernadette, and seeing him in bed with Cinnamon last week. __________________

I was kind of hoping Emily's last appearance would be in a halloween episode, where she creeps Raj out after breaking up again, only to have it be her returning something to him. Oh well.

I was surprised Raj said he was single, because Molaro said just a few weeks ago that Raj is still involved with both of them.

Really surprised Mayim isn't familiar with fanfic though... Between being a geek herself, and how Amy wrote fanfic on the show, and the fanfic she read at the Comic-Con panel... You'd think she'd at least have a solid grasp of what it is, even if she doesn't read it herself.

I think she spaced out for a second because afterwards she found an explanation by herself

I don't know if she really ship Raj/Stuart or she just said that to not have to say something about Amy and Sheldon.
I like that they made Raj a strait guy who is not afraid to show his sentiments and likes things that are usually labeled as 'girl things'. Maybe sometimes it's a little too much, but that's the point, you can be a guy and be like that. __________________
