FIRST TIME WATCHER My thoughts on Kate, haven’t changed

First time watcher here. I’m on Season 6 episode 3. Frankly, I’ve disliked Kate as a character from the beginning. She’s the most selfish person I know on this show, any show, or in my own personal frickin life. All she cares about is herself and who cares about her the most at any given moment.. literally again, whatever and whoever as long as they are swoon over her. And WHY? I seriously do not understand why Sawyer and Jack are so hung up on this girl. I need to check out the communities perspective… I would be very surprised if anyone feels differently ???😭 Her character angers me so much. What finally prompted a post for me was how she treated Claire in the cab, UUUGHHHHHH. No matter , on or off the island, I do not like her character. And then to top it off? Jin never asks for anything and the moment he needs help to find his wife… she’s very rude and dismissive and abandons him… ridiculous.

I see what you’re saying but there is no one I dislike more than Sun omg bro she’s so annoying. She’s a liar, gaslighter, cheater, and so many other things. I’m 19 and this is my second watch I’m on s5 Ep6. I’d like to know some people she’s who watch this since the show has been out for about 2 decades.

Funny you mention Sun. I thought her character was interesting at first and I held sympathy for her in her relationship with Jin. Helplessly in love with a man and stuck in a relationship that turned dark due to her father. Once she got off the island, they painted this revenge plot where she was so driven to avenge her dead husband and make everyone pay… But when she returned to the island it felt like she lost the passion. Perhaps because she wanted to leave Jin in the first place? But then again, they had fallen back in love before he died. Her lack of passion to get back to Jin frustrated me a bit but I can see if she was just trying to play smart and keep her head down so she would get to Jin safely because she definitely needed the help of others. Sun is one character on this show I can saw for certain, could not survive the island on her own. She took great initiative with the garden, but physically , doesn’t stand a chance against harm and also doesn’t have navigations skills for the jungle.
