There's less than a month until the Gilmore Girls revival hits Netflix.

I can honestly say that I hope Rory doesn't end up with any of her ex-boyfriends. I know Alexis Bledel said that all questions about Rory's love life gets answered and yes, all of her ex-boyfriends make an appearance in the revival. However, all of her ex-boyfriends were terrible. I'm not team Jess or team Dean or team Logan. I think Logan was her true love but I don't want them to end up together. Honestly she can do so much better than all three of them. Yes, no one is perfect but all of her boyfriends were actually the worst. I used to be a huge fan of all of them but going back to re-watch the series made me realize how terrible they all actually are.

Even in the early seasons, Dean was horrible. He admits he was stalking her before they started dating, he made her feel bad for wanting to go to the Chilton dance even though he could see it meant a lot to her, he got in a fight with her because he wanted a life and marriage like the Donna Reed show, he lashed out and broke up with her because she wasn't ready to say 'i love you' back (i mean look at what happened with Lorelei and Christopher in high school-can you blame her for being scared?) he got mad when she was trying to get into Harvard and couldn't spend all of her time with him, he broke up with her in front of everyone twice because he doesn't have the decency to make sure their relationship stays between them and not crowds of people, after he broke up with her and she went to the winter carnival with her then-boyfriend Jess, he was being all possessive as if they were still dating. Oh and the time he cheated on Lindsay, his wife, was also not okay. Plus, there was that time he couldn't be bothered to read an article Rory had written and was really proud of.

Jess was just quite possibly the most toxic of Rory's ex-boyfriends. He did the same thing that Dean did when they started dating, and kept going after Rory even when he knew she was dating someone. He out-bid Dean in the basket town auction which wasn't cool. He didn't say anything and just kept the bracelet Dean gave Rory when it fell off her wrist. He belittled Dean every time he had a conversation with Rory. He basically only insulted or disrespected Lorelei and Luke, two of the most important people in Rory's life. Also what about that time Rory agreed to tutor him but he kept not paying attention, goofing off, manipulating Rory into going to get ice cream and then crashing her car and breaking her wrist? That chip on shoulder never let him apologize about anything or feel anything other hatred for everything and everyone except Rory. Also he had serious anger issues-he should've been put in therapy for how often he lashed out. He couldn't make plans or stick to them at all but somehow expected Rory to drop everything for him. HE PRESSURED HER TO HAVE SEX WITH HIM WHEN HE FOUND OUT HE WOULDN'T GRADUATE AND THEN YELLED AT HER WHEN SHE WOULDN'T. He had serious communication issues, he couldn't even break up with Rory. He just left and then kept calling her and hanging up without saying a word. He was controlling and manipulative and just not a good guy.

Logan was constantly leaving at any sign of trouble. He left Rory when she told him she loved him and wanted to marry him but didn't want to leave everything she knew and everyone she loved. She had just graduated for college, she didn't even have a career yet.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
