You just read my mind. Honestly, if they’re going to try to put romance in the series, either write it correctly or don’t add it in at all. In my opinion/hc, to me Wednesday has always read as a character in the aroacespectrum, and in the series context, she reads to me as graysexual, who barely feels any kind of attraction but starts to feel something for Enid.
The typical love triangle trope and white boy love interests were so painfully cliche and badly written, they soured the series a bit for me. Jenna and Myers were brilliant, and the performance of the 2 boys was just so lackluster in comparison for me, their characters were just horrifyingly bland, there just for the romantic drama. It made no sense.
Why add half-assed written characters just to add unnecessary romantic drama because Wednesday is a teenager? Not all teen series gotta have romantic drama. Not all teens experience romance. I just wished they’d stop with the unnecessary romantic drama with half written characters with no personality.
"I thought you were giving me signals." Wednesday was like a walking pillar this whole time. No emotions, no facial expressions, no signs of liking one nor the other. She contacted both only when she needed a favour or information. There is literally no reason to think Wednesday is interested romantically in any of them . She helped you repair the coffee machine? She saved you from burning without realizing it? Girl shows minimum of courtesy to a boy and he already believes she's in love with him. The only two characters besides her family she shows genuine liking is Eugene (bcuz he reminds her of Pugsley) and Edin.
