Yeah, well, I doubt it...

[Urvy]

To me, she plays the soft side in public to hide her true self.

Cindy is just a good mix of what a girl needs to stay cool!

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

I know, right?? That's why she's my fave female character on the show!

[Urvy]

Ask me this friends,

Why do you guys like Cindy? I don't get it, it boggles the mind. To me, she's an unlikeable character due to her actions.

[XstarsandheartsX]

I know you think she's rude and violent, Urvy, but I understand where she's coming from.
A lot of 10-, 11-, 12-year-old girls are like that when they like a guy- I was like that when I was younger. In third grade, I was so mean to this guy I had a huge crush on. I used to chase him on the playground and push him down. I think I bit his arm once.
It doesn't make any sense to be mean to someone that you like, I realize that, but we're girls, we don't have to make sense. I guess it's just because it's an age where you don't really know what your feelings are and you don't know how to show them correctly.

So yeah, I like Cindy. I was a lot like her. And to me, she's a pretty hilarious character.

[Urvy]

Are you sure that's accurate?

[XstarsandheartsX]

Is it accurate that young girls are mean to guys they like?
Well, I didn't say all are, but there are many. Like I said, I was sort of like that. Girls in my classes were like that, my sister (who's 13) can be like that when she likes a guy, and I believe Crys even said in a post that that's how 11-year-old girls are. Even now, my friend Meghan will be mean to guys she has a crush on as a way of flirting.

Obviously, I can't speak for every girl on the planet, but I will say that Cindy is not the only girl who has been rude to a crush.

Does this make her actions completely unforgivable? Maybe not. But I like her because I can relate to her in some ways and her character is just really funny to me.

[Urvy]

I guess that's it, but, I believe there are better ways to seek one's attention other than using despicable acts.

[XstarsandheartsX]

Oh, there are definitely better ways to gain attention.
I don't really think anything Cindy does is "despicable". Rude, maybe. I know she insults him and has hit him a few times, but it's not like she killed his family or injured him so bad he had to go to the hospital.

[Urvy]

I see,

But, I do not like her, or bully girls in general, I tend to see them as cruel and heartless.

[XstarsandheartsX]

That's fine, Urvy, that's your opinion. I just wanted to answer your question and tell you why I like her.

[Urvy]

Well, that's good Aly.

Maybe I can vent on Bully Girls in general in the other shows section.

It's obvious that Cindy doesn't want to act like that with Jimmy, as she said in the N-Men episode. She acknowledges that he's a great guy and doesn't deserve to be treated like that. Thing is, kids at that age don't know how to express their feelings. At least for the most part. Notice the kids in movies and books and shows, and real life who pick on their crushes. I know I did.

Cindy is extremely competitive and prideful. She used to be top of the class till Jimmy knocked her down. Jimmy is arrogant, and at that age where girls must be treated like they have cooties. Naturally these two will butt heads. But when you fall for someone who you're supposed to hate, it complicates things. You deny it and try to keep things at status quo by upping the ante. Note how whenever Cindy and Jimmy start to go into gaga mode for each other, they snap out of it and end up making a rude remark. It's complicated. But eventually they get over it. In Stranded, the two managed to let their guard down and act on their feelings. They got along great.

Cindy is acting like anyone in her situation would. She's stubborn and confused. You're not supposed to fall for your rival. It also doesn't help that she's just a kid. She hasn't had the experience with these feelings like older people might. I honestly think that she might not be the easiest person to get along with on the surface, but she isn't mean spirited or violent either. She has a sweet side, but that isn't it. She's an 11 year old girl just discovering who she is. It's not like that will be who she is forever.

Besides, Jimmy fell for her regardless. If she was that horrible, that irredeemable, he wouldn't have gone near her. He loves that she can match him despite the gap between their IQ's. She's got passion, fire and keeps him on his toes. She knows when to deflate his ego, and raise his spirits when he's feeling down. It might not be the most conventional relationship, but they have time to work the kinks out.

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

I couldn't have said it better myself!

[TrippedUp]

I know this is slightly off topic, but your post counter made me giggle.

DBZ FTW

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

What do you mean, "post counter"?

[TrippedUp]

Your flashing thing below your avatar. The one flashing POST COUNT?! ITS OVER 9000!

[Katia11]

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

Yah, that's my post count rating. Anywho, back on topic! lolz
