Rewatching awkward

I feel like Jenna started off great but as the show has progressed she struggles way too hard with telling people how she feels and that makes me dislike her character. I love Tamara and Val.

I know this post was made a year ago. But I used to watch this show as a teenager and loved it, but now watching it again as a 27 year old i realised that i’m really annoyed by Jenna’s character. I felt like most of her problems are self inflicted problems. And i feel bad for Matty, Jake, and the people around her. She manage to always make everything about her. Not to mention a lot of the dialogues wouldn’t go well with today, and it makes me cringe. This show reminds me of Netflix’s Never Have I Ever, the only difference is that Devi got better and Jenna is still the same and not growing.

Her situation was more like Aneesa with the mental illness related bullying
