POTJ Ep#47 - We have to have a conversation about REYLO
Episode description
In terms of relationships, Rey and Kylo Ren put the “fun” in dysfunctional. In fact, if you take an honest stock of their interactions over the course of the three movies in the Sequel Trilogy, it’s no stretch to conclude that the relationship is downright toxic.
The thing is, how they behave towards one another, towards anyone for that matter, are conditioned responses resulting from past traumas. And looking into both their pasts, we can see that there’s certainly no shortage of trauma for either.
Hurting people hurt people. That’s what’s happening here. “REYLO” can serve as an wake up call for all of us to check in with ourselves regularly so that we can prevent lashing out in conditioned trauma-based responses.
