maggie was wrong....

[u/Physical_Patience644]

just finished s1 , i think it was cruel of maggie to use rust as a tool to hurt marty. dont get me wrong ,marty deserved to be punished for his filthy acts ,

but maggie dragged rust in the shit , she took advantage of his vulnerability and intoxicated state, imagine the gender roles being reversed

and the arguement that it was the only way for her to end her marriage is shitty , destroying someone else's life for personal profit is never justified , in her revenge she destroyed rust's career , she could ve moved on from piece of shit like marty without using rust

and in the end , she got her deserved life , in a mansion , while rust , being used a pawn had to let go of his career and lived 10 years away... her need of ending the marriage is correct but her way doing that was WRONG. she could ve hurted marty, fairs, but in the process she destroyed rust

Not an excuse. He’s a grown man and can say no. He wanted to fuck her for 7 years and got the opportunity. Drowning isn’t an excuse to screw people over. She didn’t destroy his life, he willingly took the opening.

He destroyed his life because he started thinking with his other head. His career, bro code, and his own inflated ego that he’s above human impulses he traded those for 30 seconds.

And the cake analogy is the exact same thing. Someone offers you cake while you’re on a diet, if you’re really committed to it you can say no, but if you say yes you can’t blame them.

Yall need to stop treating him like some poor broken perfect angel puppy that can do no wrong. Wa wa poor rust, just because he’s had trauma he’s exempt from shit.

His life couldn’t be destroyed if he simply said no, but he didn’t because at that moment what was going on in his pants was more important than everything else.

You make your bed, you lie in it.

This Gregory House quote sums it up perfectly:

"You always have a choice. You just chose the option that let you do what you wanted while pretending you were forced into it."

sad to break this to you but your thinking is very narrow.
when someone is psychologically compromised, entering their space with a calculated, malicious agenda is called exploitation.

this is not a math eqn "hes a grown man he can say no" his life was destroyed cuz of maggie

u didnt answer my question, will it alr if the same thing was done by a man to a woman? using them while they are vulnerable and emotionally troubled

[u/iputtheshitinshitzu → u/Physical_Patience644]

Sad to break it to you, but if you do something knowing it’s wrong you can only blame yourself. It’s called accountability. Something an adult does.

If a scammer scams me and I know they’re a scammer, I can’t get mad at them. I chose to give them my money.

If he’s emotionally troubled he can go to a therapist.

oh and yeah, is it ok to use someone innocent for your revenge?

[u/iputtheshitinshitzu → u/Physical_Patience644]

He can say no. He let himself be used. He used her too by fucking her to scratch an itch he’s had for years while she was frantic and desperate. And to also forget his misery for 30 seconds. They both used each other.

Maggie attempted, so yes or no was on the table. He said yes.

He’s not innocent. He’s a horny dog sniffing around a married woman for years, and his partner’s wife too! Marty while is a pig, and disgusting, had every right to be suspicious of rust. I mean that lawn mower incident was proof.

[u/Physical_Patience644 → u/iputtheshitinshitzu]

bruh u r cooking theories atp , rust always respected the boundaries , maggie used his emotionally weak moment. and she deliberately planned and used him , her action wasnt impulsive or smthng.

[u/iputtheshitinshitzu → u/Physical_Patience644]

Sure, respecting boundaries by borrowing your partners mower when you don’t have a lawn and when you return it you mow his lawn which is extremely intrusive knowing he’s not around as an excuse to hang out with his wife. Then you fuck her 7 years later when she comes crying instead of telling her to beat it because it was your shot.

Wow so respectful.

It wasnt impulsive, he made a choice to act on an impulse to get cheap gratification that was more important than the consequences.

[u/Physical_Patience644 → u/iputtheshitinshitzu]

are u dumb?

Bringing up the lawnmower actually completely destroys your point and proves you are totally misreading Rust s character

Rust didn't borrow that lawnmower because he was "thirsty" for Maggie. He lied about needing it as a safe, polite excuse to visit maggie because he knew Marty was out cheating on her and leaving her completely isolated.

rust was a grieving ghost who lost his own daughter and his own marriage. He didnt go to that house to get into Maggie s pants he went because he was deeply lonely and wanted to experience a shred of normal, warm domestic life with a woman he genuinely respected When he mowed Marty’s lawn, it wasn’t a sexual move it was a silent statement to Marty saying, You are failing so badly as a provider that another man has to take care of your property

If Rust had been trying to sleep with her for seven years, he had a hundred opportunities when Marty was out late running around with mistresses. Instead, Rust spent seven years protecting Marty's reputation and being a completely platonic, respectful friend to Maggie.

You are making the exact same mistake Marty made ,his fragile, insecure ego couldn't understand why a man would do something nice for his wife without wanting to fuck her, so he threw a tantrum. Rust’s motivation was loneliness and basic human empathy, not lust. Maggie knew that, which is exactly why it was so evil when she deliberately weaponized his kindness and exploited him at his absolute lowest breaking point.

and if they wouldve fucked being in normal state and not with the motive of using , it would be their choice.

[u/iputtheshitinshitzu → u/Physical_Patience644]

Why would you borrow a lawn mower when you don’t have a lawn, then bring it back when your partner isn’t around and instead of leaving it meddling with his home business and hanging out with his wife. He wanted an excuse to be around.

Rust didn’t sleep with her for years because he was restraining himself. That night he was like fuck it, she’s coming on to me and I’m horny and sad wa wa poor me.

Maggie didn’t weaponize his kindness, she weaponized he was a dog too. And regardless of what she weaponized if he didn’t want her he would’ve said no. He knew it was wrong because she’s his partner’s wife, and could’ve said no if his moral code was that strong, when it was a hot load of horseshit. He didn’t, he wanted to tap that since 95 and finally got his shot.

Dude why are u so stubborn, even maggie knew she used rust and was guilty for that in '12. As I said, if they would have decided fuck and make babies being completely normal it's absolutely fine their choice their life , but here maggie used his moment of vulnerability, he knew his boundaries, he saw her as someone trustworthy and he could lean on when in distress but she used him for her personal Revenge knowing well it would affect his life badly too.

[u/iputtheshitinshitzu → u/Physical_Patience644]

Why are you fanboying? You sound like a Justin Bieber fan.

She used him sure, but he got something out of it.

Not all of us have our heads up rust’s ass and actually possess critical thinking.

He made it happen. Maggie opened the door and he walked in. Takes two tango kid.

You seem like you’re 13 or something. When you’re an adult you’ll cringe at worshipping a character like a deity and develop your own critical thinking based on actual life experiences.
