We have more in common than you think, Nuri

Love Is

thechanelmuse:

Those last 5 mins of tonight’s episode (S1, E9: The First Script) with Nuri reliving her childhood traumas and opening up about it to Yasir shook me… She reverted back to a child. That was too real.

Young Yasir: “We have more in common than you think, Nuri…" 

*both silently crying*

Older Yasi: “Some people spend a lifetime running from their past trying to make sense of it. Looking for a silver lining. Some reason why that shit happened in the first place.” 

Older Nuri: “Sometimes it’s your past that needs healing, so that you can launch into your destiny. Sometimes I ask for a sign to validate that I’m on the right path. That moment, God confirmed that we were meant for each other. Not because we shared a similar experience, but because we made space for each other that night to be honest and vulnerable. We can figure the rest out on another night.”

Son, this show!!!!

Ok let me preface this by saying it may be an unpopular opinion but I don’t hate Ruby- but I cannot stop thinking about the fact that Yasir asked her point blank if she felt like he was using her and with all his guilt he knew he was and at least acknowledged that within himself but she just sat there cool as all like she, even with the leverage and couch, was also not using him right back to keep appearance with her parents. And refused to give him a straight answer.

Yes, he has no other good or safe options for a place to stay but she really laid it all on and made him wanting to go back home to his son about her and what her parents would say while also padding the lie about them still being together and arranging that dinner with them after she’d healed. Like I know Yasir is the furthest in the front of the struggle bus right now so he couldn’t object but I just keep thinking about the line from Wiser Yasir, “There’s a thin line between being loved and being used and guilt is the glue that holds that line together.” And I just..What is her guilt?
