Olivia Pope: Should She Be With Fitz or Jake?

Olivia Pope: Should She Be With Fitz or Jake?

With the return of the television season at the end of January, we all know we cannot wait to forget about our responsibilities and travel on over to Shondaland (aka heaven) and pick right back up with Liv and all her Scandals.

Olivia Pope is the baddest gal on Capitol Hill. Seriously, could the White House even run without her? She is driven, assertive, incredibly intelligent, not to mention a total 10. Along with Olivia's talent for covering up scandals, she is in love with two different men: President Fitzgerald Grant and Captain Jack Ballard. But who should she be with?

Reasons you should love Fitz:

Their chemistry. Oh, my gah, I have never seen something so compelling. Honestly, I would be totally and completely be under his spell.


He was going to give up the presidency for her. If that is not love, then I don't know what it.


He built their dream house in Vermont. That was the most precious and wonderful thing he could have ever done for her.


He always tells Olivia exactly how he feels. Whether he is mad and upset with her, or showering her with affection, he does not shy away from his words.


Jake is part of B613 and he is in command. I don't know about you, but I would not really want to be with someone who tortures people for a living. Who knows what all emotional damage that has caused him.

Liv wants "painful, difficult, devastating, life-changing, extraordinary love." Man, does she have it with Fitz.


Reasons you should love Jake:

Standing in the sun. Who doesn't want to stand in the sun? If Olivia doesn't want to go, don't worry, I volunteer as tribute. Jake said he would give everything up for her and run away, and he followed through with his promise.


Jake is kind and he would move mountains for Olivia, not tear her down. Olivia's love for Fitz has done nothing but hurt her and drive her crazy.


Fitz is way too controlling. If he actually loved Olivia, he would let her go and be with Jake. After all, he is freaking married. Fitz is incredibly selfish; he wants to have his cake and eat it, too.

 Jake is in command. He is not afraid of the responsibilities that come with being one of the most powerful men in our nation, and he  is not afraid of the president. To most people, the president is a very intimidating man, but Jake is never afraid to stand up to him.


Jake doesn't pressure her into decisions. He always lets her have space.


Jake is good for Liv. He wants what is best for her, no matter the cost.


Which ever mega hottie you choose to side with, we can all agree, Liv has the best options anyone could have. Hopefully, she comes to a conclusion this season, so that she can put us all out of our misery that is the Fitz-Jake-Olivia love triangle.

But let's be honest, she probably won't pick, and we secretly love the back and forth.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
