Yeah, he is. But here's the thing-- previous companions, at least in New!Who? They have lives outside of the Doctor. Their entire existence and being was not based on being around and traveling with the Doctor.

Rose had a job and a family and a life, so did Martha and Donna! It was part of what made them interesting, whole characters. When the Doctor left them, they had lives to return to. They had this whole characterization and story to them because there was more to them than just "travels with the Doctor" or "is in love with the Doctor."

Amy? She doesn't seem to have any family or job or anything like that to go back to. She doesn't have any pressing matters... or any seeming life at all in her original time. She exists solely to travel with the Doctor. And marry Rory. THAT'S IT. Other than that, she's... what? She's got nothing. No basis for personality, no basis for history, no basis for anything. Her entire character is "this girl who travels with the Doctor and has a romance with Rory, who is her replacement for the Doctor since she can't have him." In other words, her entire story revolves around... men. It's dependent on men. ENTIRELY involved with them. She has NO real agency of her own, no life of her own.

River is much the same-- her entire identity is "in love with the Doctor, meets up with the Doctor at random intervals, lives for seeing the Doctor," etc. We don't know who she is, what else she's done, why we should even CARE. Her existence is basically orbiting around the Doctor.

Pffft.

I almost wish this was tumblr, so I could reblog this post a million times and thusly explain to my friends why Amy as a character is so frustrating. Of course, they also like her because she is "the most beautiful woman ever" so I don't know how well this would go over.
