“Beth was kind of like this long dark tunnel. She was kind of like this little flame at the end of it. He got closer and closer to that flame and thought maybe he could see something and maybe there would be light and it’s getting warmer and warmer… and then someone blew it out.” "If Daryl has a thing for Beth or whatever, I always saw that as, if he did, he didn’t understand those feelings. He might have felt them, but it wasn’t a thing. He was sort of uncomfortable with those feelings, but there might be hope somewhere down the line and then it was taken from him, again." - Norman Reedus
i Dont see them as a couple like...idk I see them as a family but not in a weird way like... I dont see it like THAT kind of love.. u know? like a father/daughter or a siste/brother :(
The beauty that was Bethyl. 🥰the tender awkwardness and sweet innocence of both Beth and Daryl sexual innocence was what made there connection so magical ✨ because it was spiritual, they emotionally completed each other. It was beautiful cause how sensitive and nurturing it was. Beth is everything Daryl needs in a partner emotionally 🖤 she's an open book 📖 who wears her heart 💖 on her sleeve she's completely honest where she stands emotionally. She the only one compatible to deal with a emotionally dysfunctional and stunted Daryl Dixon. She was the only one capable of teaching Daryl how to survive with his humanity. Cause there soulmates. And without her he's completely regressed into state of deep depression There 20 year age gap never 👎 come across as predatory. It was cute ☺️ delicate with Daryl past abuse emotionally and mentally stunting him, he's underdeveloped and is basically the same age mentally as Beth it's a case of Chronology .vs. Biology 🧬 what indicates maturity? Daryl has never experience romantic or intimate relationship. So it was never a case of a older man taken advantage of a younger girl when there both equally inexperienced and on there journey of discovery together. And it's clear he's not having random hook ups, the guy doesn't even like to be touched. he has no experience or awareness of physical intimacy or how to deal with it. it said it all when Beth hugged him season 4 episode 1. And its evident Beth would taking the lead on all physical intimacy's in the begging. if Daryl has experience something sexual it was probably something traumatic like one of his dad's hooker girlfriend molesting him as a child. Some perverted friend of his dad who like to touch little boys. Or Merle forcing pressuring or drugging him into something he didn't really want. Merle idea of helping is pretty much abuse. Daryl in those two episode STILL and ALONE proved he's the type of soul that seeks emotional connection in order to feel comfortable enough to explore physical pleasure and Beth's the same, personality wise there complete opposite but emotionally/spiritually there the same. They seek deeper connects to evolve intimately, they both established there not there siblings Daryl isn't Merle and Beth isn't Maggie there not a free with there bodies cause there different people. Daryl wouldn't initiate physical contact with other characters not until after his character development with Beth he huge Carol and puts his head on her shoulder when they reunite. When other character like Carol or Rick try to touch Daryl they always did cautiously like approaching a wild animal. Beth bulldozes over his boundaries and his force field. She see's who he is she knows him and trusts him implicitly. she has since the day he held Judith, none of his defence mechanism work on her. All his grunts and shrugs. didn’t deter her, he was baffled 😮and intoxicated🥴🤒just by her existence,the beauty and hope she Represented.He was completely mystified😵💫by her. Beth and Daryl are Beauty and the Beast a tale as old as time when you fall in love in the most unexpected of ways and when you least expect it. The scene on the funeral home where she sings to him and he told her to keep playing. was pretty similar to Belle reading to Beast and him asking to read again, with beast having the same struggle as Daryl being cursed he never got the chance to mentally develop properly, hence why all the tantrums and angry outburst. They were as close to a fairytale as walking dead was ever gonna get. They were Rapunzel and Flynn AT LAST I SEE THE LIGHT. 🎇 The story of them in the woods was pretty identical she was doe eyes bright hopeful positive light 💡 that kept pulling him out of the darkness and pushing him forward. And he was the criminal with the shameful past exciting without purpose. Who took her from her tower and showed her she was strong and capable all along.🥺
That was beautiful. 🥺👏🏻 Your comment sums up their relationship perfectly! So sad how it ended and didn’t really get chance to become more, but she gave him something he’ll always remember. Beth saved him. 🥰
This is probably the most in depth description of the relationship of these two characters that I have ever read 😅 And yeah, I think I agree with most if not all of this. I don't know if their relationship was ever going to be romantic/sexual, which is why I don't agree with the ship, but I think you described perfectly how Beth got daryl to bring down his walls and I think she got to touch his soul like noone had before. A beautiful connection these two had and I'm sad we never got to see more of it. I would have loved to see Beth join the group and turn into the absolute badass she could have been 🥲

Too much of a character age gap....... I have been in this situation.... It just feels odd. When you're the older guy.... I mean unless what ever..... I will keep it positive.

He gave away Leah’s knife like it’s nothing he would never let anybody use Beth’s knife. He doesn’t even use it to kill even when he was in difficulties in the burn forest 🌳 instead of going for Beth’s knife, which would’ve been the easy choice he took the hard route. To kill the Walker. And he cradles Beth’s knife, tenderly, when Dwight stole all his stuff and too his crossbow
