it's not like I knew him

[certainthings]

I don't understand why I was and still am so upset over Cory's death. I didn't know him. I didn't know much about him. I liked Finn, but he wasn't my favourite.

And yet.

I never CRIED when I learned that he died, but have between then and now gotten weepy and heavy sigh sad about his passing.

I'm sure he was a lovely person. But. Can I please stop being sad about him?

I feel ya. I may have stopped watching Glee after the second season or so, but I loved the first season and the character of Finn and esp. Finn/Rachel, then to see it translate from on-screen to off-screen with Cory and Lea was pretty cool to see (I also loved the role reversal from their characters to the actors in terms of their relationship).

And of course, I can't watch that Teen Choice Awards speech from Lea with a dry eye. Nope.

On Glee, Cory played the popular jock and Lea played the outsider, but in reality Cory was a high school dropout and Lea was this famous Broadway actress. I remember when the rumors started that they were dating and people couldn't believe that Lea would be attracted to him as though he was "beneath" her, but none of that seemed to matter to them.
