Abbott is doing the right thing for Janine & Gregory’s relationship (even as frustrating as it is because we, as the audience, just want them to be together already).
Janine has been less than a year since she broke up with the boyfriend she’d had since middle school, and her only other boyfriend has been Maurice. So much of her life has been shaped by a relationship that she needs a lot of time and growth to understand who she is outside of that.
She’s lived for other people for almost her whole life--her mother, her students, Tariq, etc. If any character deserves to be selfish for a while, it’s her. Let her figure out what it means to put herself first without any hesitation or second-guessing.
Already this season, we’ve seen Janine learn how to have friends outside of work, be independent, and stand up to her manipulative mother--all healing that she needs to do for herself.
Keeping herself single into next season will help her continue to work through her past and discover herself, and it’ll be a real treat to see how she continues to grow. Quinta Brunson has proven she can deliver some beautiful character growth.
I have no doubt that Teddie will get together when they’re both ready--and they’ll both be so much better for all the growth they’ve gone through before they get there.
