I'm up to the Junior and by this point I strongly dislike her. Significantly more than Manny and Becca, particularly because we're not meant to like Manny or early!Becca. Abbie is annoying and I think she was 90% of the problem between her and Tyler. While I sympathized with Abbie's initial complaint, Tyler isn't a mind reader. He can't fix or talk through a problem Abbie refuses to explain. Abbie not understanding her feelings isn't on the gang or Tyler or Sebastian either. It's straight up Abbie's problem that she let become everyone else's.

I felt the same way when Kaitlyn took her identity issues out on Abbie, the MC and Zig the last year. And regardless of what the gang says or their intentions, Abbie living there does make them sympathize and support her more than with Tyler. Tyler can't hang there and vent while Abbie's there. And anything he says to them can be tainted by their constant exposure to Abbie.

Abbie also should not have taken Kaitlyn's offer for the room, or should have moved back to the couch when she decided to stay longer. She should have made herself as unobtrusive and helpful as possible. She lives in her own apartment, she understands the concept of personal space. The cake thing is also about respect. Abbie has no business, as a guest, rifling through the fridge eating crap unless she was explicitly told to help herself.

I do not sympathize with her here because I haven't made that 'mistake' since I was a teenager. As my mom says, "No matter whose it is, you know it's not yours."
