Same. The flights are already changed? So did he just leave and go home and go on the later flight himself? Plot hole FTW.

That's just terribly sad.
Especially with him helping zip up her dress and everything. I just want fic of Brian in the back corner, watching. Never telling anyone he was there, but watching and smiling and being happy. __________________

Yeah, I really never understood that either. He was doing something nice, giving away his trip and wanting to stay for the wedding and yet she tells him to leave. That probably just makes him feel worse about no one really wanting him. And also yeah, Justin could have totally gone later.

It just goes to show, not even Michael and Lindsay really grasp all that makes Brian, Brian Kinney.

so an other example.. why didn't she tell Brian about her plan to marry Guilome? was that his name? I mean he was affected directly with it, because of Gus, and we learn pretty soon that the guy wanted to stop Brian seeing his son __________________

I feel like this is a trap that everyonr gets into with Brian. Believe hia soupuss attitude, but has no about it to believe him when he's nice. And that's a good chunk of Brian's fault, it's worse with Lindsay and Mikey because they're his best friends. __________________

I know - why does she not let him grow and change? Why does she not let him become the person he wants to be? She is always saying but that's not Brian - well maybe this is Brian but you keep telling him it's not and you won't let him be different! |

I love to read the different ways we interpret the scenes! I saw it like Brian offering the tickets to Lindsay bc he really loved her and he was putting her before what he wanted. I don't believe he really wanted to sit through the wedding (did he want to see her and wish her the best before it, yes!). His face when J said he wanted to attend said it all to me. When J said he wanted to go, B said "for Mel and Linds?" as if that would be the only reason for him to go. Linds loved him enough to know that if he went, he'd only be doing it for her and would rather be at the white party.

It is interesting on here how many points of view and discussions we can have It is what makes it interesting and I know I have changed my mind on things or seen things differently since I have been on here discussing things |

[QUOTE=fmaldy24;94332311]So I don't get why she wouldn't let him do that still. Why tell him no and reject his gift? Why not let him do something for her and let him be there for her? I don't know - I just see it as she doesn't give him that chance to keep growing and changing
I think she in turn loved him enough to let him out of going. She realized he would be doing something he really in his heart didn’t want to do (even though he would have). When she says “I love you too” after he leaves, she is acknowledging that his offer was out of love but was putting her needs above his. You know how she repeats to him “no apologies, no regrets” in season 5. She is giving him permission to be his true authentic self which at that time meant he didn’t care about going to weddings. Just a point of view but I love listening to others too bc I also have seen a few things differently both with age and with hearing others’ views. It’s funny that I am the same age as the characters meaning that I was 29 turning 30 when qaf first aired so I see some things in a different light now that i’m older. Another reason that I’d love to see a reunion to tie things up and see how they’ve changed now that we are all 48 or so. |

Wasn'T Brian saying sometime " and we took advantage of opportunities"? so that would be more then once, and he said he would have slept with her to get Gus.. well I would say that probably it would have taken more then one try for that but who knows.. so they sure had a background with trying each other out in Collage.. but sadly we don't get to know more.. since Jack knew her from the time back then, I would say Brian must have brought her home one or two times or took her to meet his parents in any kind of official thing.. so I also guess he "used" her to cover his sexuality in front of his parents.. if it is true and Brian really didn't want to attend the wedding, then we already see a mayor change when Michael married Ben, cause even being Michales best man, he seemed to enjoy both, the wedding, and the celebration he made for them afterwards. Just looking at him laugh and dance.. it was out of joy and not an obligation... so I still believe he was holding up his facade not to show any disappointment in not being there .. and for the gift? I mean.. honestly.. he had enoght money to give them a gift more then the won tickets to Miami.. he could have bought them a trip to Hawaii if it would have been about that.. but in my eyes he was also looking for a perfect excuse not to go there alone and be a part of it without admiting it.. with Linday rejecting it, she took away that possibility for him and he had to leave.. and she must have seen the dissapointment of him, but I guess she missinterpreted it.. I think she didn't see completly through him, like she so often said sh would do __________________
