rory gilmore | nothing new 

"how can a person know everything at 18 but nothing at 22" WITH THOSE TWO CLIPS, MY GILMORE GIRLS AND TAYLOR HEART WILL NOT EVER RECOVER

maturing is realising rory was lost and her family shouldn’t have put so much pressure on her to be the golden child

rory was one of the most human characters we've ever seen in hollywood, she makes mistakes, she can't handle criticism (which isn't constructive), she's been spoiled by everyone but still shows the reality of many people.i could never hate rory gilmore cuz i identify with her, just as many must identify, we get confused and, we don't think we're good at the things we choose to do with life, we're afraid to fail and let others down and let ourselves down, most of ppl feel that...

i used to hate rory for throwing away her opportunities but as a former overachiever that has been a teacher for 5 years and is currently depressed and burnt out i understand her deeply and feel really sorry for her

this is why i could never hate rory, i relate to her too much

it's amazing how many taylor songs perfectly relate to Gilmore characters and then you realise how much Taylor exudes Lorelai energy :0

i'm such a rory defender. she was used to being praised by her mother and by the people in stars hollow, so when she receives one bought of criticism she breaks down and wants to drop out and give up - like it makes perfect sense because she's faced all this pressure to go to harvard/yale and to be the best

as a huge gilmore girls stan and swiftie i could only think about her when i first listened to the song friday, and this edit actually made me violently sob

i used to hate rory until i realized the reason for my immense dislike of her after yale is really because i don’t want to end up like her.

her downfall was so realistic and it absolutely crushed me. and i cant believe people hate her for it or even blame her for it as if her whole life her parents, grandparents and her entire town made her believe shes invincible and can do anything she wants. they praised her way too much and she wasnt used to the harsh reality

I never understood why people hated Rory so much. She had so much pressure on her to be perfect. It’s no wonder she got lost. She should’ve been allowed to be lost for a while.

i understand rory almost too well, till high school i was a girl with big plans and many hopes, i had perfect grades with 0 work and people believed that i was going to rise and succeed in life but in high school, i just lost it, that spark. I lost my focus, my hopes and became a big mess, from a go getter, i became this i don’t know what i become actually or what i will become, i am so lost and i can’t see any way out everything is foggy and dark and i don’t know where i am heading the smart girl who knew everything and got it all planned, somehow ended up knowing nothing, just trying to survive days of long classes, falling behind all the time also seeing that rory never fixed herself after burning out, kinda lowers my hopes i feel like i wont be able to find a way out either

Such a perfect tribute to poor Rory. Wow. I love this more than I can express. 💜

She is also my comfort character. Her greatest flaw however was the inability to 1) take criticism and 2) MATURE. What she needed was independence and time away to actually sort herself out and work on her skills. She would have been a great publisher, not so much a reporter. But she couldnt take in the fact that she had things to improve

i hate how much i relate to her, how known the gifted kid golden child how everyone would say lovely things. and how fast everything falls apart just a blink of eye.

fastest 3 minutes of my life!! this was soo well done and completley fits her. I dont know why everyone criticises her storyline so much when it's actually so relatable. I think its because we all can see ourselves in her storyline but hoped somehow rory would be different and just know how to perfectly navigate life. It doesn't play out like a tv show in reality and Dang your 20s are hard, this really hits home

Why am I sobbing rn this video is why I can never hate on my girl Rory I feel her sm in so many points in her life

1:08 - 1:17 made me instantly burst into tears

i heard this song and IMMEDIATELY thought of rory…i can’t believe you did it 😭 also…atw 10 minute version…i can’t stop picturing the way different lines describe each of rory’s relationships perfectly…

i've seen so many people talk about how much they hate rory for throwing away important opportunities and not realizing the privilege she had, but i just can't hate her. i just can't help but feel for her. ever since she was a young child, she was pressured into being the "golden child". don't get me wrong, lorelai was a fantastic mother in many ways, but she treated rory more like her best friend and less like her mother, and while it's good to have a best friend relationship with your kids, your role as a parent should come first. rory had to think like an adult since a young age, and almost EVERYONE around her treated her like one. they treated her like she was perfect and couldn't make any mistakes, and that kind of pressure on someone who isn't even finished with school yet is horrible. she was forced into acting more mature and didn't have as many opportunities to act like a child. and because of that, she ended up in many situations as a burnout college kid. and i can heavily relate to her. i'm not in college yet, but i have had the stress of being perfect ever since i was little. from everyone around me. i have to get straight a's all throughout my school career, become a doctor, and be the golden child. failure would rarely ever be an option and i always have to be the overachiever. and while i truly appreciate the opportunities i am given, i just can't help but be jealous of everyone around me that doesn't know what they want to be when they grow up. i'm jealous of the non-"gifted" children because i hate that word and wish i wasn't considered gifted because that puts a lot of pressure on me, and i'm only a kid. that's why i can't bring myself to hate rory gilmore, because i relate to her too much. but i'm also scared of failure and possibly going through what she did. i don't want to end up like her, but sometimes i fear i will.

I don’t like it when people say that they hate Rory because she had a terrible downfall. But honestly, I feel sorry for her and still love her. Everyone had high expectations for her and she was just lost, tired, exhausted and overwhelmed. It’s like she had to know everything being so young. That what happens when “the perfect child” stops being perfect. She is just a person, just a human, after all. And I love her no matter what, even at her worst

A lot of people hate Rory so I never comment on anything but I think I can write here. I messed up a lot in my life. I relate to Rory so much. I don't know these people, whether their lives are absolute perfection that they hate Rory so much and criticize her immensely. I love her.she is relatable. She is messy and so was I (probably still am). Anyway she does not deserve this much hate. 💙

I swear, every song of Taylor fits perfectly with Gilmore Girls

it breaks my heart every time i watch the scene from 1:18-1:25 : richard realizing they failed rory.

CRYING! ! ! three of my fav things: Taylor, Phoebe, AND Gilmore Girls.... I will never recover from this era 😭

i got like 1:30 minutes in until i started crying. the line "im ready to wallow" just got me :(

okay this absolutely ruined me!! so good and fits rory perfectly

I used to hate Rory for her life decisions and storyline. But today, I understand her completely. Humans are humans. Not perfect projections. Sometimes we have to lose ourselves to find ourselves again. That's life

gilmore girl + taylor swift makes so much sense. In All Too Well 10 min version towards the end it says "I still remember the first fall of snow" and it always reminds me of Lorelai and the first snow of stars hollow

she had so much pressure to be perfect :( you can’t hate her for making the wrong decisions sometimes

Am I reading too much into it or is there a twist at the end that shows lorelai also afraid of being unwanted by rory?! If so, GENIUS. If not, still so beautiful

This song is perfect for Rory. Beautiful as always

Thats why i like her so much..god shes just a human,no one can be perfect and life is not always goes the way we liked..i can totally understand her downfall .

WOW i had no idea this shit would singlehandedly recontextualize some of my feelings about rorys character and also make me cry, just finished a rewatch too

Oh my god that switch to Lorelai's perspective at the end when she feels like "nothing new" compared to this life with Richard and Emily 😭 I see you kindred sprirt, I see you

How can a person know everything at 18 but nothing at 22 ... 🤧🤧

wow...i didn't even relate the two, but now this song feels like it was made for her :(( thank you for making this!

holy sh*t... this edit HITS hard wow wow wow instant favorite

THIS IS MAKING ME CRY

“How can a person know everything at 18 and nothing at 32….”

I LOVE how so many of Taylor's songs fit GG perfectly and I LOVE your edits

This is the song from the vault tracks that still haunts me the most. Love this edit so much!

WOW this song literally goes perfect with rory 🥺

I feel like everyone hates on Rory but I have so much sympathy for her; not to hate on Lorelei but she did pass on her parents expectations of her onto Rory. All Rory ever wanted was to live up to her mom and grandparents expectations and made her whole life about academia and being perfect no wonder she suffered from burnout in the later seasons and year in the life she didn’t know who she was without following a path given to her

I have watched this an unreasonable amount of times 😂. This is art

this is just perfect ♥️ i literally imagined rory while listening to the song

For everyone who judged Rory, there it is

I haven't watched gg till last year. And honestly I see so much of myself in her. Of course I have never been that calm, collected kid but spend a good portion of my childhood being an overachiever just because there was nothing else allowed, maybe that's a bit dramatic so I can change the word with encouraged instead, for me to do. I was in a strict high school and I've felt bad that I wasn't the genius of the class so I studied for days and weeks even on holidays and I've made myself feel guilty for reading books for pleasure that's how messed up I was. I've crashed during first year of med school when I got super sick then got panic attacks for missing too much and having too much freedom after a prison-like high school life, it got to the point of being scared to leave the house for me to start a treatment for anxiety. It got better next year, but after awhile I just knew i didn't want to study my life away and skipped classes. I've never became a good student ever since but after graduation I've suffered for my lack of motivation/discipline. I don't even read and people are surprised how much I know and how do I not read. I just get on by what I learned before I quit reading so it's a slippery slope, pretending to be a bookworm. I took a different career path instead of what I thought I wanted, I'm just hanging around here not knowing what I want from the future. It's a never-ending cycle of the former gifted child syndrome.

it’s the way. this is so her

This made me sob violently, thanks

Am surprised she didn’t fall short of her goals and her family’s wishes for her long before she went to Yale . I get the grandparents wanted her to her to succeed but Lorelai not understanding Rory taking time off confused me. I loved they showed Rory was human and mistakes or decisions we make in life.

I am a 21-year-old uni student and THIS, this Rory, I understand you.

i go back to this video all the time. i had just rewatched that episode of rory's 21st bday party with all the awkwardness with lorelai and lorelai seeing how much rory has changed or grown without her and feeling anxious about rory's future with this trajectory because she had been there albeit much much younger than rory was atp

What a lost girl. I feel bad for her. I see myself in her and it scares me. (Amazing job editing!!)

this edit is making me look at rory in a completely different light (in a good way)

i'm bawling my eyes out because i relate to her so much

omg i love this so much, this song fits so well with rory 🥺

I've never watched Gilmore Girls before but this is something, I feel like crying even when watching this

great because im crying again

this song, character and edit is amazinggggg!!

Oh god i am so happy that someone made this particular song edit on gilmore girls 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

THROWING UP SO HARD

seeing Rory grow up 😭😭

YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS

This is pure perfection! I’m so glad someone vidded her with this song! Great job 💞

I was waiting for someone to make an edit w this song!!

you’re so right for that

tears have been shed.

the way this is just as much about lorelai as it is about rory

ive never HATED rory. ive related to her. after years after years of being "perfect" i realize that everything comes to an end. things change, and i become burnt out. everyone has made very stupid mistakes in their life, and i get why rory would turn into that. rory should not be hated on the way she is!

goooooosh i love rory so much, this edit is amazing, you are always amazing ❤

Your videos are always so on point, this song is perfect for her in the most heartbraking way. I just love the way you choose scenes that fit perfectly with the lyrics. This video is stunning as always💜

I want to hate her but I can’t 😭 she was brought up to be the perfect academic successor but it was too much pressure and her family’s influence on her, especially her bonehead of a father, and her mom keeping her away from her grandparents has got to have a bad affect on her. She should’ve been a better friend to Rory and treated the people that cared for her and all those boyfriends with respect. I used to not understand what they saw in her but I think she’s a cute passionate girl it’s just pressure and some privilege, too. The privilege of being smart and pretty put her in a good spot but she got so sick of her treatment and pressure she couldn’t handle it. She felt like she couldn’t always be the best and she gave up, making herself a worse person. So yeah I think this song really matches her story I think she was very sweet, smart and determined at 18 but once she got older her personality had a downfall and many people are mad at the writers for “doing her wrong” but I think they demonstrated something we needed to see, and if they didn’t, we wouldn’t understand the pressure on people like Rory and what it can do to people. It wouldn’t be realistic if this didn’t happen.

wow this is beautiful!! i love this song so much and your edits are amazing

I realized I'm just like Rory, except I knew and had everything at 16 but at 18 I was lost and confused, so I decided to take a year or so from school, everyone blames me but I was just so exhausted, now I'm 21 and I'm entering my second semester of college and I finally know what i what to do.

Ugh these are perfect. Why are my two favorite things happening together right now?!

This song is so good for OS Rory. Especially with the AYITL ending when it was supposed to happen at the end of college. Beautiful edit.

you broke my heart with your beautiful champagne problems logan and rory edit and now this!! ouch!! thankyou for doing what you do

this has meEMOTIONAL

this is stunning and the waterworks are coming!!!!

this is so perfectly beautiful

this LITERALLY broke me

I’m not crying you are

I cant this is amazing..

my princess ☹️☹️

i listened to this the other day and thought, i hope someone has made a video for her by now!!!! so glad to have found this

You are the best editor ever and we literally stan the same artists/movies/shows. Taylor Swift x Gilmore girls is all I have ever needed

OH THIS ONE IS PERFECT

all of ur edits make me sob on the floor

The song choice… the edittt……u never miss🥰

plp need to realize that all the pressure plp put on her as a kid made her break when she was older, she didn’t know how to take criticism’s and that’s why she quit yale she didn’t know how to take it and it made her feel like she wasn’t good enough and not worthy of being there

this just hurts, i relate to her sm :(

i literally never comment on youtube videos but i just have to voice my appreciation for this one... i love rory and this song so much and this is so well done, the choice of scenes is so perfect 😭

i cried

This captured and broke my heart in so many ways. This song is perfect for Rory.

this ripped me apart. incredible

oh god this song always hit me. i kind of relate to this. i mean i didn't really have a "peak" in hs or before that. but i did do rather excellently when i was around 17-18 in terms of academics (for a person who had below average grades and failures before) but now at 22, ever since young adulthood/college i feel so lost on what do with my life and all these things i didn't know were out of reach for me and my actual placement in life i become to realize were dire and seem impossible to get out from. this is unrelated to the video i just felt like sharing incase someone feels the same. it's nothing new that ur lost at 22, ur not alone

I think about this edit at least once a week

I'm in such a sympathetic mood today this had me crying

I know it well also reminds me of gilmore girl but more of lorerai specially the part where she mentions snow. Also how hard it hit her each time a relationship ended....this is perfect! Pls make one video w lorarai of the new 10 mins song ;)
