Colin was nervous.

They said: have a lil drink as a treat

You can tell by the reaction people have to Penelope asking Colin to kiss her whether they ever experienced being a wallflower/insecure fat girl at a party or not.

Because you say it's pathetic, I say it's relatable, no matter how desperate it may sound. If you've never had your insecurity eat you up from the inside (but also the outside, as Portia literally told Penelope that she was delusional for thinking she was gonna find a husband in her third season out) to the point you genuinely, wholeheartedly believe no one will ever love you unless you physically change, then obviously the scene is off to you.

But Pen literally told Colin she felt stupid for thinking she's gonna find a husband (she just started believing what the ton and her mother said) and that she knows no one would want to kiss her. And for a romance girl like her, do you think the thought of never having a kiss, never experiencing that passion, would be easy to bear? I can so relate to being the most romantic of the bunch but also being the loneliest and aching for physical and emotional romantic love.

She is so vulnerable and so real in that moment but y'all gotta bitch about it because it doesn't make sense to you. It doesn't make sense to me either because she's gorgeous, but that's the thing - no one ever told her she's gorgeous and actually meant it. And even if they did, there must be 10 more people who didn't that keep that insecurity in her, specifically her sisters and her mother.

Nicola said this one was for the wallflowers, and it truly is, so if you find scenes like this cringe, you just don't relate to the character enough to feel it and recall moments when you had the same thoughts as her.

Absolutely hilarious to me that the ton is gonna be speculating on why and how Penelope and Colin ended up engaged and there’s definitely gonna be some entrapment/pity rumours going around but the actual truth of it is that Colin chased a carriage down, fell to his knees and went “please please please please please please please”

[justdumbalex]

penelope is a better woman than me, i would’ve lied and said i got engaged just to see if colin would cry

Colin’s face journey as decides he's going to marry Penelope is excellent.

[justdumbalex]

first man to win the wanting to fuck her so bad he looks stupid olympics

[justdumbalex]

Violet: I hear Penelope may be getting a proposal tonight.

Colin: Yeah, from me

Violet Bridgerton is truly gods strongest soldier. Every season she tells one of her children they're in love and every season they scoff in her face before causing seven different scandals to reach the same conclusion.

BRIDGERTON (2020—) S3E2 // S3E3

[justdumbalex]

"I've thought of this moment a thousand times, pictured a hundred different pairs of breasts, an lovely and desirable and full and begging for my attention, but nothing, and let me repeat this in case you didn't quite hear me the first time, nothing comes close to reality."

What I love about S3 so far is how Penelope is seemingly the only person who can actually break this new facade of Colin's. He appears confident and flirty with other women, but when it comes to Pen, she (without even trying that hard, sometimes not at all) makes him flush and causes him to be nervous. It's so damn cute that this man flirts with so many women yet it's his "friend" that breaks this character that he's got this season.

And that's probably why I don't mind him being a flirt - It's clearly only a persona he has.

No matter how many girls he winks at or kisses their hands, not a single one of them makes him run, cry, or break societal norms. His attraction to them is fake, just for show, but it's Penelope that actually gets through to him and makes him crack and become vulnerable, and that's the beauty of Polin 💚

Not both of them sharing this iconic meme 💀

“You are clever and warm and…” COLIN BRIDGERTON CAN YOU FUCKING TRY TO AT LEAST ACT APPROPRIATELY FOR PROPRIETY ‘S SAKE??? LIKE I KNOW WE AGREED THEY WERE CUTE LOSERS TOGETHER BUT THIS IS A LEVEL OF SOCIAL IGNORANCE THAT LEAVES EVEN ME AND MY ND ASS BREATHLESS, SERIOUSLLYYYY WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM!!!???!

[justdumbalex]

Colin is going to be so absolutely fucked by the end of part 1. The dynamic between Colin and Pen is going to 180 so hard. Literally he’s going to have to stand by the wall and watch the angelic Bridgerton-blue-dressed Pen flirt with a man who is everything Colin wishes he was. Debling is wealthy, titled, handsome, smart, kind, and a fuckin TRAVELER?! Like a hardcore traveler with a seriously respectable purpose.

Colin is going to feel so pathetic.

Which is so absolutely necessary. The more pathetic the better. Because it only makes Polin’s connection that much stronger. He has to feel how all those yellow dresses looked (sorry Pen).
