I haven't watched Grey's since...late S3? So I may feel differently if I watched it now. But the thing I liked about that was how direct it was. Meredith wasn't pretending to be cool or dignified or the better choice when she said that. There was no pride in it. She wasn't saving face or dressing the situation up to seem romantic.

That's how I like my romantic moments of crisis: raw, plain, a surrender not a production.

I'd have to go back to the episode where she sleeps with George for a refresher, but I do generally recall feeling like Meredith was being blamed for "using" George as though George wasn't a grown-ass adult who knew full-well she didn't reciprocate his feelings and still jumped at the chance to have sex with her. Like, why was it Meredith's job to protect both of them from themselves? (Then again, if the genders were reversed, Guy!Meredith probably would've been shamed for being an insensitive fuckboi and taking advantage of poor, smitten girl!George's feelings for him, so...IDK. But like I said, it's been a loooong time since I saw that episode.)

I forgot that Meredith cried while they were having sex, which definitely makes me even more on her side in the whole situation. CLEARLY the decision to sleep with George was born of messy drunken misery and not, like, callous horniness.

Neither of them should've done it, but people fuck up sometimes, and they both paid the price (the price being that it made them both feel worse not better).
