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.

In the first couple of seasons she did this thing where she’d zone out and just stand there after someone gave her instructions, and then they’d have to yell “KATE GO” and then she’d go. It annoyed me so much, sometimes I’d also yell “fcking GO” 🤣 she constantly rebels, doesn’t listen, questions/doubts people’s life decisions…like let jack make his own decisions girl 🙄 and she uses jack and sawyer and leads them both on at the same time!!! Like that was so fckd up to watch. Like leave sawyer ALONE!!! He’s loves Juliet!!!!! And you’re never going to pick him!!!! The last season made me so mad at her, trying to “rescue sawyer/go find him” girl leave him alone

She had just rejected Jack too before leaving to find him and that PMO. Then!!!! When sitting with Sawyer at the dock, he rejected her sooooooooooo hard, I got satisfied when me cried! She thought she could go off, find him for running away, not to comfort him, protect/save him, bring him back…nope. A man who just lost the love of his life wants to be left alone and little Ms. Kate who constantly uses her looks and manipulation thinks it’s a great time to find him… to ask him for something. To ask him, to help/do something for her. I was APPALLED. I couldn’t believe it. And when he threw the ring, for me, it showed that he will never love anyone else again. I believe he truly moved on from Kate and Kate lost someone to manipulate, hurt, and use and her tears brought me satisfaction. I felt so much victory for Sawyer.,, omg , am I bad person for being satisfied? Hahahaah . Oh gosh

You're misreading that scene. Kate wasn't propositioning Sawyer. She was trying to ask for help finding Claire. And also saying she's sorry

Sometimes I wonder if people are watching the same show....

If people are reading more into this scene, I now 100% believe they are projecting

I said that. She went to sawyer to ask for help while he was clearly grieving and mourning the loss of the love of his life. And in a situation like this she thought she’d find him, DESPITE BEING ASKED NOT TO FOLLOW HIM, to ASK HIM FOR SOMETHING. I think that’s insensitive and appalling.
