They're probably in touch with their emotions and express them in a healthy way and aren't afraid of intimacy outside of sex and romantic relationships

Would have been pretty cool for me if my parents weren't traumatized angry damaged people

Of course! But in my experience it's not really the norm, highschool is a very dramatic, hormony place, and I'd be willing to bet that blue dot was more likely just the school "dreamboat" which kids of that Age tend to find more desirable than emotional maturity

Take all the shots you want at her. She's with the guy who sexually assaulted my sister while she was underage.

I revel in all the negative shots at her
