Bro Jeremiah really meant what he said when he told Belly that if he kissed her again he wasn't sure he could ever stop.
LOOK AT THAT

i initially didn't want to talk about this scene bc personally i think it's been blown out of proportion but if you want to get real and talk about symbolism, I'll come to play.
For Belly's entire life, Conrad has been "the sun". She idealized him so much that all she could see was him and no one else could compare, leaving Jere in the shadows despite always being there for her (and literally being nicknamed "the sunshine boy")
So many people have tied this shot to that quote "For Belly, Conrad was the sun" and have understood the light here to be the sunlight radiating on Belly and Conrad. But the thing is—despite so many people's misinterpretations of the shot—it (he) is not the sun.
It's artificial lighting. It's not real.
He isn't the person she built him up to be no matter how many times she had convinced herself he was. She just didn't realize it immediately.
When Belly wakes up (that in itself could also be a metaphor), and she is able to think clearly and decide for herself what she wants and what she needs, she chooses Jeremiah. And what exactly happens when she does?
The sun shines on both of them. There is real sunlight bathing the shot because she doesn't idealize him and he doesn't idealize her, they see each other for who they really are and love each other anyway and that's what's real.
it's so important to me that it comes across that the sun shines on both of them. she didn't find a new sun, she didn't choose a different person to revolve her whole life around—she wanted the sun to shine down on her as much as it did her partner bc ultimately, she is now also choosing herself and what makes her truly happy.

am i the only one who thinks that this whole "conrad begging jere to let him be with belly" thing is super immature and toxic? conrad did it because, as he said, belly didn't want to hurt jere. what about conrad himself? did he think it was okay to come home after not talking to jere, leaving him alone to take care of their mom, medical bills, insurance, and other stuff, and just casually telling him how much he loved belly? didn't he see jere hurting? why, just why was he so selfish? i couldn't stand him in that scene honestly. and then when jere told belly about this situation, i thought she would be mad at conrad, because he lied to her about jere being fine, happy, and seeing other people, and he forced jere to "give a blessing". but belly was all like oH wHY diDnT YoU tELl mE I wOuldVe FoUghT fOR uS. oh really? if she knew conrad didn't give a shit about his brother's feelings, if she knew jere was NOT over her, he was not happy nor dating others, she would've taken it as a sign of conrad's love? really? where? it only proves that jere was the real one, because he wanted belly and conrad to be happy, and had to sacrifice his feelings. and the next day after that belly&conrad beach conversation she's like "you know what, jere, i actually want you now". excuse me??? my boy deserves better than that

Quick note to whoever found Conrad ‘cute and funny’ in that car scene from last nights episode. Please re evaluate some things. And this isn’t even coming from me being a Jelly Stan, this is coming from me seeing that his behaviour was childish and manipulative. If you think Conrad was in the right here, please don’t get into a relationship any time soon, because you deserve better than someone who thinks they own you and cares more about making you feel guilty and manipulating you than they do about your own happiness. Just, be careful out there my loves.

"jeremiah forgot her favorite candy!" firstly, some people's parents don't even know their kids favorite candy and it doesn't mean they don't love them or know their child less. and second, you know what jeremiah wouldn't have forgotten? the corsage

TSITP 2x07: The most intense kiss of the show
So hot.
Even the music’s lycris agrees with the storyline.

Love you Susannah and her love to children
But I hated that she was asking and begging belly to baby her grown ass child like she’s some kind of babysitter. “Don’t let him push you away”, so Belly has to run after Conrad all her life and be with him whenever it’s comfortable for him, but when it’s not she should accept it and wait in the corner for Conrad and go back to him again when he feels like it? Instead maybe talk to your child, send him to therapy, actually explain what’s love and how it should be, ask him does he truly love Belly and if he does explain that it’s not okay to hurt people you love no matter how you feel
Also, I don’t like how she just ignored Jeremiah’s feelings toward Belly. The way she said “I knew it I knew it.” Maybe ask them how do they feel about it cause did they think about Jeremiah and the fact that he’s been dating Belly already? Why doesn’t she lecture Conrad that it’s not okay to be with Belly in that moment cause she was with Jeremiah already

the parallel of bellyjere's "do you think you could ever...?" and "do you still...?" is something so special to me
they don't need to finish their sentences bc the other one just knows
