tai would actually be hated in real life


i mean come on , the new girl in the group goes from elton to christian to josh with travis in between? no group of high school girls would tolerate that.

reply

She never had Elton or Christian.. Or josh for that matter. She was interested in Elton and Josh but nothing ever happened. Josh probably didn't even know Tai liked him.

reply

the point was that she had a thing for all of them one after the other. never said she had them.

reply

So you are under the assumption that girls would hate another girl for having a crush on boys? Cher was probably the only one who knew about most of them.

reply

She was into Travis at first because they had the same in common, but Cher convinced her that she shouldn't date a loser like him so she tried to set him up with Elton. Cher wanted her to date hot guys. Josh was just helping Tai out at the other party she was at because she was alone and started falling for him. The popularity got way into her head and started acting like a bitch. Cher was just trying to help her because she wanted her to have friends and was new at the school.

Lol this topic in general is hilarious. I'm only going on 23 so high school isn't that far back and I recall myself having a lot of crushes that would come and go and I usually never had the guts to confront most of them about it. That could be said for a lot of my other gal pals in high school as well.

I highly doubt girl's would have hated Tai for crushing on a bunch of girls. That's kind of what a lot of teenage girls do. Hell even if she slept with them, she probably still wouldn't be hated for it unless she blabbed about it to everyone.

I never got the impression that she truly "liked" Elton...she liked Travis first and foremost...even when they were at the party where she was supposed to be trying with Elton, she was still into Travis...she never had anything with Christian and as for Josh, he was an older guy that was being nice to her, she was trying to move on from Elton and trying to put the idea that Travis was not an option...

If she had slept with all three than yes, girls would have hated her. But from my understanding she didn't sleep with any of them.

The only guy Tai really liked was Travis.

Elton was the guy that Cher thought she (Tai) should be dating. You're a popular girl, you date the popular guy.

Wasn't Christian suppose to be gay?

I think Tai might have developed a little crush on Josh but nothing more than that.



If she's dead, it's because she got wasted & offered the grim reaper a hand job

The only one Tai really liked was Travis and MAYBE Josh.
Cher wanted Tai to like Elton and she tried to oblige, but she wasn't really feeling him.
And she was NEVER feeling Christian like that. He was a cakeboy and just a good friend.

And unless those guys belonged to other girls, I don't see a problem with her "liking" or even dating all of them if she wanted to.

Christian and Tai were never a thing. Tai never even had a crush on him, let alone dated him. Cher was the one who had a crush on Christian, not Tai.

Plus, basically what the three posters above me said. I'm pretty sure she always had a thing for Travis but Cher thought Tai should date Elton so she tried to make that happen. Obviously it didn't work. Then Tai had a slight crush on Josh but that didn't last long and she went back to wanting/liking the guy she had probably wanted/liked the whole time anyway, Travis.

This is my signature.

reply

She was only ever really into Travis. Cher got into her head making her think she needed to be with popular/cool guys.

She was convinced into liking Elton although it was always Travis that she liked right from the start. I mean, she did cry over Elton in the restaurant scene, but I don't think she truly had feelings for him deep down.

If she had sex with them, absolutely, the girls would have hated her. But didn't sleep with any of them. In fact, with the exception of Josh, Cher or Dion didn't express interest in any of the guys Tai was after.

Now with Cher and Thai both liking Josh, though, that would have definitely created conflict.
