We've been distracted.

[worthyoflove]

Tim is pretty distracting. Tim and Lyla together can be very distracting.

[Nothing Else Matters]

They're awful. Every year I go through a phase where I obsess over them a bit.
and you're not even that nice.

[worthyoflove]

They make my heart hurt honestly, I just long for them to be together. I'm just like you, I'll go through a Tim/Lyla phase and watch all their scenes which then usually leads to another FNL rewatch.

[SouthernSweetieTX]

Everyone should be loved as much as Tim loved Lyla.
Relationship goals.

She was the love of his life.

For sure. I mean Tyra really knew him and listened to Tim, but Lyla was the one.

[stlavin95]

She definitely was the one for Tim.

[worthyoflove]

This is why they're back in Dillon and living on his land somewhere, in my mind. The karmic universe has probably punished Tim and blessed him with only daughters that look just as beautiful as their mother...hope he still has that shotgun lying around.
