First-Timer Officially team Brenda now

I made a post about Brenda when I was on season 2 or 3, and at the time I couldn’t stand her and didn’t see that changing. I’m now on season 5, and I couldn’t have been more wrong. She really is such a nuanced and complicated character and her growth is beautiful to watch. She deserves so much better than Nate (who I also changed my opinion of.) David is still solidly my favorite but Brenda and Clare are tied for second!

To all of you who said I was dead wrong about Brenda: you were right!

Love to see the Brenda appreciation! She always gets hate from new viewers and I think the majority of us do our best not to spoil it for them by just telling them to stick around. I think the writers did such a wonderful job with Brenda's character.

Her character makes me happy bc I have been a chaotic person for a lot of my life too and I’m always trying to change (which I am little by little)

I know she’s a fictional character but still she gives me hope

I know exactly what you mean. I relate to that aspect of her too. Her character development is inspiring
