"I really tried to take up the cause for the fans, because I know they wanted it so badly and deservedly so. It was a concerted effort over a number of years."</p><p>"Gilmore Girls" followed young, single mom Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and her daughter/best friend Rory (Alexis Bledel), who live in a small, quirky New England town. Lorelai's past comes back to haunt her when she realizes that she has to ask her parents (played by Kelly Bishop and the late Edward Herrmann) for a loan so she can send Lorelai to a highly regarded private high school.</p><p>Patterson and many of the WB-turned-CW show's stars went on to pretty successful careers. Meanwhile, the fan base for "Gilmore Girls" grew to include its original viewers and a whole new generation of fans who were able to watch the show via DVD, On Demand, and streaming.</p><p>Buzz around the show seemed at an all-time high when a growing TV festival held in Austin, Texas, the ATX Festival, planned to reunite the show's creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and its cast for a panel in 2015.</p><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image"><img src="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/583602b9e02ba71c008b61dd-1067/undefined" alt="gilmore girls scott patterson netflix" data-mce-source="Saeed Adyani/Netflix" data-mce-caption="Scott Patterson, Lauren Graham, and Alexis Bledel on &amp;quotGilmore Girls: A Year in the Life.&quot;" /><p class="source"><span>Saeed Adyani/Netflix</span></p><p class="caption">Scott Patterson, Lauren Graham, and Alexis Bledel on "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life."</p></div><p></p></div></div>"I had virtually given up hope, but then ATX Festival in Austin in the summer of 2015 kind of changed the temperature on the whole thing," Patterson said. "I saw that it might happen and it did."</p><p>At <a href="http://www.ew.com/article/2015/06/08/watch-gilmore-girls-atx-festival-reunion-panel" target="_blank">the festival's reunion</a>, Sherman-Palladino said that a reunion was not in the works, but left the possibility open.</p><p>"It would have to be the right everything - the right format, the right timing," she said of the potential project. "It would have to be honored in a certain way. If it ever came around, I think we would all jump in and do it. If it ever happened, I promise we'll do it correctly."</p><p>Patterson told us he got a phone call from <span>Sherman</span><span>-</span><span>Palladino</span> not long after the festival. In an interview with <a href="http://tvline.com/2016/11/23/gilmore-girls-a-year-in-the-life-revival-secrets-spoilers/" target="_blank">TVLine</a>, the show's creator said she got verbal agreements from the four leads - Graham, Bledel, Bishop, and Patterson - before pitching the show to three outlets, including Netflix.</p><p>Netflix was an ideal creative partner for several reasons. Not only does it stream all seven seasons of the "Gilmore Girls" run, but its programming president counted the show among <a href="http://deadline.com/2016/07/netflix-ted-sarandos-ratings-programming-spending-stranger-things-renewal-1201793706/" target="_blank">the company's most popular offerings</a>. Second, ratings aren't the bottom line at Netflix. Its business is in signing up more subscribers. After all, "Gilmore Girls" was never a highly rated show and <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/2006-07-primetime-wrap-137223" target="_blank">ranked No. 129 on TV</a> during its final season. Those aren't promising numbers for outlets that depend on ratings.</p><p>"I knew Amy and [producing partner and husband] Dan [Palladino] would write good material given the newfound freedom they had with Netflix, that they didn't have to adhere to any deep ratings considerations," Patterson said. "Netflix is filled with very bright people who had a vision for this and how to reboot it."</p>    <div class="margin-top">        <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/most-underrated-unknown-television-shows-on-netflix-2016-10">The 7 best TV shows on Netflix you've probably never heard of</a></h3>        <div>            <div>    <script src="http://player.ooyala.com/v3/6e12e8b3387a44daacfb73afba25a76e"></script>    <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="huZ3ZyMzE6rGxAguTdCEVzFAvdxaEa5B" data-player-variable="ooyalapopvideo" id="ooyalaplayer_popvideo" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div>    <script>    if (typeof RunFunctions === 'undefined') { var RunFunctions = []; }     RunFunctions.push(function()    {         var ooyalapopvideo = OO.Player.create('ooyalaplayer_popvideo', 'huZ3ZyMzE6rGxAguTdCEVzFAvdxaEa5B',{ autoplay: 'false' });     });    </script>    <noscript><div>Please enable Javascript to watch this video</div></noscript></div>        </div>        <script>(function() { function createPlayer() { OO.ready(function() { RunFunctions.forEach(function(ooyalaFunction) { ooyalaFunction(); }); RunFunctions = [];}); } createPlayer(); }()); </script>    </div>

<ul class="summary-list"><li>My mom had me when she was 40 years old. </li><li>I've never thought of her as an old mom despite me being a geriatric pregnancy. </li></ul><p>By the time I was born, my mom was a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/older-mom-have-no-regrets-having-baby-forties-2023-9">fully formed adult</a>, complete with a prefrontal cortex and a closet full of skirt suits.</p><p>It was a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/older-parent-lessons-self-care-age-insecurity-2024-1">geriatric pregnancy</a>. The cutoff is 35, which seems a bit harsh, but my mom was 40, and I was 10 pounds with a big head, which also seems a bit harsh.</p><p>I did not think of her as old when I was a kid, just as I don't now, even though she has allowed her <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/i-stopped-dyeing-my-gray-hair-2-years-ago-2022-9">hair to gray</a> and often refers to herself as "your old mom," usually while placing the top of her hand gingerly on her forehead and asking me to carry something up the stairs.</p><h2>She is a realist</h2><p>She was born in 1960, a year I used to picture taking place entirely in sepia tones. The youngest of three girls, her parents were a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/the-secrets-of-longevity-from-99-year-old-wwii-veteran-2023-10">war veteran</a> and an academic secretary. Her upbringing was decidedly Southern, even though they lived in Suburban Ohio. This was a result of her parents' roots in Alabama and translated into a fierce devotion to church, family, and casseroles — in that order.</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/psychotherapist-when-to-tell-child-the-truth-about-santa">Santa has never existed</a> in our house. I was 6 and sitting in the backseat of her car, forcing my eyes to shift in and out focus on the window when I experienced a critical thought, potentially my first. How could someone make it to every house in the world in one night? "Is Santa real?" I turned my head to her. She hesitated. "No. Sorry." She was sorry. I think it bothered her to admit it. "I don't like to lie to you." She added, as an explanation and assurance. She is not cold or unfeeling, the opposite, really.</p><p>I was not under the impression that my parents were without flaws or personalities of their own, that they were infallible or emotionless in the ways my peers described their own parents. They answered my weird questions and told me stories about their interests and mistakes. Our house was full of conversations, photos, and collected furniture, evidence of their lives before my sister and I came along. I felt like I knew them, which is why their split in 2012 came as a total shock. It turned out I'd been out of the loop, blissfully so. I was unaware of the ongoing conflict between my parents and the strife involved with my mom's ultimate decision to separate.</p><h2>We are close</h2><p>I often compare my teenage years to "<a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/gilmore-girls-stars-where-are-they-now-years-later-photos">Gilmore Girls</a>," but with less romance and more religion. This tends to get a laugh and perhaps more alluringly allows me to dodge some of the classic "broken family" sentiments that accompany a divorce, but even with the qualifiers it isn't really all that accurate.</p><p>At 16 and 32, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/gilmore-girls-family-therapist-wont-watch-with-daughter-2023-11">Rory and Lorelai</a> are both in very formative years of their lives. Their early arguments were goofy squabbles about staying out late or relationship drama. At 14 and 54, our landscape included the same outspokenness and proximity but packed a certain volatility our TV counterparts lacked. I, just out of middle school and my mom, just into middle age, were suddenly alone together, in a life we never anticipated, fuming at the world. Lorelai and Rory were drying each other's tears over a bowl of popcorn, and we were having the emotional equivalent of MMA smackdowns.</p><p>As an adult, I recognize that my mom's willingness to be straight with me about the world was a sacrifice. It would have been easier for her to ignore me and pretend that things would always be OK. Her childhood in the 60s, with two quiet, hardworking parents who were largely emotionally hands-off, could not have been more different than the intensely vulnerable, chatter-filled years we spent navigating our complex family situation during my adolescence.</p><p>Her impressive candor, steadfastness in her faith, and wicked sense of humor differentiated her from my friend's seemingly utilitarian mothers. By allowing me to see all sides of her personhood, she raised me to be a good adult rather than just a good kid.</p>

My mom had me when she was 40. It created a uniquely honest bond between us.

And it's not just because you like the characters.</p><p>After the pandemic corralled us indoors, comfort shows became a coping mechanism for some of us. <a href="https://www.nielsen.com/insights/2021/lol-amid-uncertain-times-consumers-take-comfort-in-nostalgic-comedy-shows/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nielsen Insights</a> reports "Friends," which was one of the most rewatched shows in 2020, acquired over 96 billion minutes viewed over the course of the year, a 30% increase compared to 2019.</p><p>Insider spoke to Raffaello Antonino, a counseling psychologist and founder of Therapy Central, and C.M. Conway, an independent filmmaker and multimedia storytelling consultant, about why we watch the same TV shows repeatedly.</p><h2>We find comfort in familiarity</h2><p>You might watch Pam and Jim's wedding when you're sad, or turn to the rag-tag Dunphy family when your stomach is in knots. That's because, in some situations, TV can help ease our anxiety.</p><p>When <a href="https://www.cabletv.com/entertainment/comfort-shows-survey" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CableTV.com</a> surveyed 1,000 Americans, it found 87% of respondents had a comfort TV show, and three in five of those respondents were anxious, it reported in March.</p><p>Antonino said anxiety is underpinned by a fear of uncertainty — thus, the need for predictability and familiarity can make us feel safe.</p><p>"There is a very simple psychological concept which is that of the mere-exposure effect, which is as simple as you like what you know," he said. "It's 'I watch "Friends: for the 12th time, even though I know every punchline and every joke because the familiarity feels comforting.' That is very, very important."</p><h2>TV shows can help you make sense of your own experience</h2><p>TV shows can help us <a href="https://www.insider.com/the-good-place-finale-series-changed-my-life-2020-1">cope with our own experiences</a>.</p><p>"When we see a character surmounting an obstacle, we say, 'Well, how can I maybe superimpose that into my life and surmount this obstacle in my daily life?'" Conway said.</p><p>Have you ever wondered why you feel better watching Rory move on from Jess after you've been through your own break-up? </p><p>"[TV shows] can be a way for us to vicariously live through characters and then really arrive at the emotional end that they arrive to in the [show]," she said.</p><h2>Watching the same TV shows can be a form of escapism</h2><p>Media-induced nostalgia is caused by remembering or re-experiencing media from the past, according to a 2018 <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0304422X1730284X#preview-section-cited-by" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study</a> by researchers at the University of Cologne and the University of Mannheim. It also influences your psychological well-being.</p><p>"'Stranger Things' is an excellent example where the producers leveraged this nostalgia effect linked with the <a href="https://www.insider.com/best-80s-movies-and-shows-stream-now-2020-5">'80s</a> and '90s that immediately triggers a cascade of connections in our mind that brings us back to a time that perhaps was simpler," Antonino said.</p><p>This escapism was especially important as the pandemic halted physical connections.</p><p>"As we were seeing current events in the world, during the pandemic especially, the world felt a little upended for a lot of people. A lot of people were on lockdown for quite a while, so binge-watching became an activity that could be a way to feel better or to escape," Conway said.</p><p>According to a <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/289559/binge-viewing-penetration-rate-us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2020 Statista survey</a>, 60% of respondents aged 13 to 17 years old and 69% of adults aged 18 to 29 said they frequently binge-watched TV shows or movies in a series in one sitting. </p><h2>TV shows can act as an outlet for our emotions</h2><p>With emotions like anxiety, sadness, or anger, one of the ways that we can regulate that emotion is through an external outlet, like a TV show, according to Antonino.</p><p>"The TV show becomes a safe space where we canalize the energy it elicits that has been kept compressed within us into processing that emotion through the experience of watching the story, the TV show, or a particular character that we are attached to," Antonino said.</p><p>He said it could even be "potentially really helpful for someone's mental health."</p><p>Conway added, "We, as a people, as a society, like knowing it's all going to work out in the end. And really good comfort television shows bring us along a journey that allows us to emotionally experience something safely along with the feeling of, 'It's all going to be OK.'"</p>

This is why your favorite TV shows are so comforting to watch, according to experts

<ul class="summary-list"><li>"Ginny &amp; Georgia" creator Sarah Lampert hasn't spoken to Taylor Swift about the season one joke.</li><li>She says she's grateful Netflix has never given her the note to write "likable" female characters. </li></ul><p><a href="https://www.insider.com/shows-to-watch-like-netflix-ginny-and-georgia-2022-12">"Ginny &amp; Georgia" creator</a> Sarah Lampert told Insider she's still a "big fan" of Taylor Swift, who called out her hit Netflix show for a season one joke that referenced the pop star's dating life. </p><p>The show centers on the complicated mother-and-daughter relationship between the titular characters, who move to the fictional town of Wellsbury, Massachusetts to start a new life after Ginny's (Antonia Gentry) stepfather dies.  </p><p>In the season one finale, which was written by Lampert and the series' showrunner Debra J. Fisher, Ginny scolded her mother Georgia (Brianne Howie) after Georgia inquired about the end of her relationship with her then-boyfriend Hunter (Mason Temple). </p><p>"What do you care? You go through men faster than Taylor Swift!" Georgia screamed. </p><p>The scene <a href="https://www.insider.com/taylor-swift-netflix-ginny-and-georgia-sexist-joke-reactions-2021-3">prompted Swift to take to Twitter</a> on March 1, 2021, calling the joke "lazy," "deeply sexist," and "degrading." </p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet blockquote" data-lang="en" data-cards="" data-conversation="">—Taylor Swift  (@taylorswift13) <a href="https://twitter.com/mims/statuses/1366401657685245955?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 1, 2021</a></blockquote><p>But Lampert pointed out the nuance of Ginny's response, noting that the teenager had just been slut-shamed by her best friend Max (Sara Waisglass) for sleeping with Max's twin brother Marcus (Felix Mallard). So, Ginny's actually "deflecting" her pain onto her mother as opposed to criticizing Swift's love life. </p><p>She said she hasn't had a conversation with Swift ("I don't have her number") but that she and her team "just want these characters to be able to be messy."</p><p>"We write them to be flawed and to purposefully not say the right thing and to act out of emotion," she continued, adding that she's a "big fan" of Swift because, like the singer, she also uses her personal life as inspiration for her art. </p><h2>Negative attention has overshadowed the complex writing within the show</h2><div type="image" title="Sara Lampert" height="3361" width="4481" msid="96819821" hostid="261" sizebytes="493618"></div><p>"Ginny &amp; Georgia" made headlines in 2021 because of Swift. The controversy arguably distracted viewers from noticing the complex female characters Lampert created. The show initially evoked comparisons to the WB and CW <a href="https://www.insider.com/gilmore-girls-fun-facts-2018-10">early 2000s hit "Gilmore Girls."</a> But Ginny and Georgia have secrets darker than Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Rory (Alexis Bledel) could ever dream of. </p><p>"As a writer, a note that you'll often get for female characters is, 'Is this character likable?'" Lampert said. "And I'm so grateful that Netflix never gave that note."</p><p>Georgia is a tough single mother of two, a <a href="https://www.insider.com/sexual-assault-survivors-wait-years-to-report-abuse-2020-12">sexual and physical abuse survivor</a>, and — to protect her children from the same fate — a murderer. Still, it's easy for viewers to root for her. Georgia's brimming confidence and sugary southern charm aside (both of which provide ample cover for her crimes), we can understand the lengths a mother would go to in the name of protecting her kids.</p><div type="image" title="Brianne Howey on season two of &quot;Ginny &amp; Georgia.&quot;" height="1742" width="2322" msid="96819823" hostid="261" sizebytes="85192"></div><p>In the season two finale, the intention behind Georgia's actions gets blurry when she murders her former nemesis's sick husband Tom as an act of mercy. Cynthia (Sabrina Grdevitch) had just blocked one of Georgia's abusers from being allowed to rent in Wellsbury and told Georgia how difficult it was for her and her son to cope with caring for an ill family member.</p><p>Lampert said that Georgia thinks she's alone in the room and is "returning the favor" by killing Tom.</p><p>It's still jarring to watch her swiftly place a pillow on his face and hold it down with resolve — and even more upsetting to know that her son Austin (Diesel La Torraca) is an unintentional witness. </p><p>"I think that Georgia is a character who has not been caught for anything she's ever done," Lampert explained. "So I don't think at that moment she thinks she's in danger of being caught."</p><p>But private investigator Gabriel Cordova (Alex Mallari Jr.) relentlessly watches Georgia and puts enough pieces together to get her arrested for murder in the middle of her wedding reception in the finale. She's having her first dance with her new husband, Wellsbury's mayor Paul Randolph (Scott Porter) when she's cuffed and carted away from her guests.</p><div type="image" title="Scott Porter and Brianne Howey in &quot;Ginny &amp; Georgia&quot; season two." height="2023" width="2698" msid="96819825" hostid="261" sizebytes="156878"></div><p>All of Georgia's wedding scenes are strangely beautiful to watch. Lampert and her team paid careful attention to them, she said, because Georgia's arrest plays a key role in their four-season plan for the show (which is still awaiting a season three renewal).</p><p>A lovely instrumental created by the show's composers <a href="https://scoringarts.com/eventlibrary/the-music-of-netflixs-ginny-georgia/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lili Haydn and Ben Bromfield</a> plays during the arrest, sharpening the shock we see on everyone's faces. Plus "Going to the Chapel of Love," originally recorded by The Dixie Cups, is the perfect song to hear as we watch Georgia stare at her family from the back of a police car. </p><p>It all reinforces the "anti-fairytale" <a href="https://www.insider.com/2023-wedding-trends-that-will-be-popular-planner-reveals">theme of the wedding</a>, Lampert explained. </p><p>"Ginny &amp; Georgia" is its own deliciously soapy anti-fairytale that swaps a perfect role model for a flawed woman who makes mistakes. The hit series wasn't created to celebrate violent crimes (or offend Swift), but to show the wide, messy spectrum of what it means to be a woman. </p><p>"Ginny &amp; Georgia" season two is currently streaming on Netflix. </p>

'Ginny & Georgia' creator is a 'big fan' of Taylor Swift despite season 1 controversy and loves writing 'messy' women characters

The most recent <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhInIOKwGXU">"Fuller House" teaser</a> garnered more than 13 million views in three weeks, and the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNHsA4WIFvc">new Twin Peaks trailer</a> has more than 2 million views.&#xa0;Warner Bros.&#xa0;hasn't even officially announced Gilmore Girls' reboot, but when photos of its freshly painted set&#xa0;<a href="https://twitter.com/caddyglass/status/682451079083196418">leaked</a>, the Internet went nuts:</p><p><div><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>p.s. familiar sightings in the props department/around the lot/painting kim's antiques. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/thisisnotadrill?src=hash">#thisisnotadrill</a> <a href="https://t.co/mAGCs3Bc6j">pic.twitter.com/mAGCs3Bc6j</a></p>- Clara  (@caddyglass) <a href="https://twitter.com/mims/statuses/682451079083196418">December 31, 2015</a></blockquote><script async="" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div></p><p>We're hyped about these reboots because the originals are masterpieces and we're obviously still salty about their cancellations. But we can also look&#xa0;to psychology to understand why we're excited about the shows' comebacks.</p><p>It has a lot to do with nostalgia, or an intense longing for the past, says Krystine Batcho, a social scientist&#xa0;who has studied nostalgia for 20 years. &#xa0;Just the mere thought of a show revamp&#xa0;is exciting, because it represents a new beginning.</p><p>"<span>The possibility of second chances, in itself, is an attractive optimistic belief," Batcho tells Tech Insider.</span></p><p><span><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/09/science/what-is-nostalgia-good-for-quite-a-bit-research-shows.html?pagewanted=all">Research&#xa0;has shown</a> that nostalgia brings us together, and&#xa0;re-watching these beloved shows&#xa0;lets us relive positive memories. But the reboot amps up those feelings, Batcho says.</span></p><p><div><iframe src="//giphy.com/embed/12SXVd8bmXdSg0" width="800" height="450" frameborder="0" class="giphy-embed" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div></p><p><span>The degree of excitement depends on two things: how disappointing it was when the show ended and how much time has passed. Fans were livid when ABC cancelled "Twin Peaks<span>"</span>&#xa0;after only two seasons. Likewise, fans were bummed when "The X-Files" and<span>"</span>Gilmore Girls<span>"</span> ended, even when they neared 10 seasons.</span></p><p><span>When people feel emotionally invested in a show, its cancellation can invoke a feeling of mourning, Batcho says. Basically, something you love died.</span></p><p><div><iframe src="//giphy.com/embed/14qOw2zLzdRFXa" width="800" height="400" frameborder="0" class="giphy-embed" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div></p><p>Now that these shows are being resurrected, they hold the promise of reinstating the original feelings fans&#xa0;had when&#xa0;they watched it. The revamp feels like an upgrade, but only if enough time passes.</p><p>If a show returns too soon, it&#xa0;creates the opposite emotional response, Batcho says.&#xa0;The show&#xa0;needs to be off the air for at least a decade for fans&#xa0;to welcome a reboot. Of course, there are exceptions with some shows with especially tragic&#xa0;cancellations, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/arrested-development-17-more-episodes-in-works-2015-4">like "Arrested Development</a>."</p><p>Who are these devoted TV fans? They're more likely to be people who readily show their emotions and are more sensitive, Batcho&#xa0;says.</p><p>They're also more likely to be extroverts. <a href="http://jcr.oxfordjournals.org/content/37/3/393">A recent study</a> found that the consumption of nostalgic products, including TV shows, satisfied people's need to socialize. Fangirling around these shows physically&#xa0;gives them more energy.</p><p>Part of the excitement of a reboot also revolves around feeling connected around a similar interest, in this case, a TV show. The revamp&#xa0;gives people a sense of community and belonging, even if it's with a bunch of strangers on the Internet.</p><p><div><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Come on, get happy!? <a href="https://t.co/vIzedysz5e">https://t.co/vIzedysz5e</a>Happy another year closer to NEW EPISODES of Twin Peaks! <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/HappyNewYear?src=hash">#HappyNewYear</a> <a href="https://t.co/QkfOAvHyye">pic.twitter.com/QkfOAvHyye</a></p>- Twin Peaks  (@ThatsOurWaldo) <a href="https://twitter.com/mims/statuses/682653238718533632">December 31, 2015</a></blockquote><script async="" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div></p><p class="embed-spacer">In hard times, people are especially drawn to nostalgic media. <a href="http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.2753/MTP1069-6679150201">Research from Northern Arizona University</a>&#xa0;shows people may turn to these shows because they yearn for the past.

Whether it's missing a meeting at work, impulse shopping when you're on a tight budget, or <a href="http://www.womansday.com/relationships/dating-marriage/advice/a2967/8-common-relationship-mistakes-19151/" target="_blank">making a mistake in a relationship</a>, it's totally normal to feel a little down when things don't go how we planned. When it comes to your sexual health, it might be scary to think that mistakes can happen - but it's important to <a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/136705-7-things-you-should-know-about-how-birth-control-works" target="_blank">be informed and prepared</a>. That's why a <a href="http://perfectlyimperfectandme.com/" target="_blank">new campaign from Plan B One-Step®, #PerfectlyImperfect</a>, featuring <a href="https://twitter.com/carlyaquilino" target="_blank" title="Link: https://twitter.com/carlyaquilino">Carly Aquilino</a>and <a href="https://twitter.com/nessnitty" target="_blank">Nessa </a>of MTV's "Girl Code," wants to spark conversations about the pressure to be "perfect" - and it's a good reminder that it's OK to make mistakes in your sex and dating life from time to time.</p><p>"It's OK to make mistakes in a relationship because that's how you learn and grow," Carly Aquilino tells Bustle. "The more obstacles you go through in a relationship, the stronger you become... Perfection is unattainable and frankly overrated. We all make mistakes, whether it be buying a horrible present for your boyfriend's birthday or even having an 'oops moment' when you may have unprotected sex or your birth control fails you. This is why Nessa and I got involved with the 'Perfectly Imperfect' initiative, which aims to spark a conversation about the many myths surrounding emergency contraception and ensures women are prepared in case their birth control plan doesn't go as expected and they need emergency contraception."</p><p>Whether it's a birth control slip-up or a slight addiction with Facebook stalking your ex, we all make <a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/125241-common-relationship-mistakes-based-on-your-zodiac-sign" target="_blank">mistakes when it comes to our romantic lives</a>. When you're in a relationship, there are some mistakes (like cheating) that are <a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/72499-7-biggest-mistakes-you-can-make-in-a-relationship-according-to-experts-because-its-actually-pretty" target="_blank">pretty much unforgivable</a>. The good news? There are plenty of small, <a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/156140-11-common-mistakes-people-make-in-their-relationships-without-realizing-it-how-to-fix-them" target="_blank">fixable mistakes it's OK to make in a relationship</a>- here are five of the more common ones.</p><h2>1. Telling White Lies</h2><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><img src="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/5834ccacdd0895411a8b45e1-889/shutterstock369387872.jpg" alt="couple sad fight cheating relationship" data-mce-source="Shuttershock" /><p class="source"><span>Shuttershock</span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><p>"White lies are OK to make," April Masini, <a href="https://forum.askapril.com/" target="_blank">relationship expert</a>, tells Bustle. "In fact, tell your partner you like the sweater, the haircut or the meatloaf - just to keep the peace and pump up [their] self-esteem. Would it kill you to say his mother's apple pie is amazing when it isn't? Let the white lies go. They're not just harmless, they keep the peace."</p><p>Although <a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/185885-9-ways-to-be-more-honest-with-your-significant-other-according-to-experts" target="_blank">honesty is super important in a relationship</a> and it's better to have a partner with whom you can share your honest opinion, some little things just aren't worth the strife. So don't feel guilty if you're not entirely truthful all the time - when it comes to minor things, sometimes white lies are better than the painful truth.</p><h2>2. Innocent Flirting</h2><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><img src="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/5834ccacdd0895411a8b45e2-1895/undefined" alt="flirting" data-mce-source="Andrew Burton / Getty Images" data-link="http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/jeremiah-constant-a-drill-equipment-salesman-originally-news-photo/174596515" /><p class="source"><span><a href="http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/jeremiah-constant-a-drill-equipment-salesman-originally-news-photo/174596515">Andrew Burton / Getty Images</a></span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><p>Remember in "<a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/195553-the-gilmore-girls-revival-cast-photo-shoot-reveals-a-lot-about-rorys-exes-photos" target="_blank">Gilmore Girls</a>" when Rory was shocked to realize she <a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/67589-ranking-rorys-gilmore-girls-boyfriends-dates-crushes-from-logan-to-marty-to-the-guy-in" target="_blank">had a crush on her hot new TA</a>? She proceeded to announce it to Logan as if she'd cheated on him, then was surprised when he was like, "yeah, that's NBD." What Logan knew (and Rory didn't) is that flirting and developing small crushes is part of human nature - and that doesn't change when you're in a relationship with someone.</p><p>Sure, it might be a better idea to <a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/161029-7-reasons-you-should-flirt-in-your-relationship" target="_blank">flirt with your partner</a>, but it's also nothing to be ashamed of if you sometimes bat your eyelashes at your favorite barista. It's not cheating to interact with other people, even if you happen to find them attractive or have a little crush on them. The only thing that's important is knowing <a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/106305-5-reasons-to-be-excited-about-your-significant-other-flirting-with-other-people" target="_blank">where to draw the line</a>: banter all you want, but don't slip the bartender your number at the end of the night.</p><h2>3. Mild Jealousy</h2><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><img src="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/5834ccacdd0895411a8b45e3-1200/142675994807f9399d896o-1.jpg" alt="checking iphone" data-mce-source="Flickr/CAFNR" data-link="https://www.flickr.com/photos/cafnr/14267599480/" /><p class="source"><span><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/cafnr/14267599480/">Flickr/CAFNR</a></span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><p>Every relationship comes with some level of jealousy. While <a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/163896-11-signs-your-partner-has-unhealthy-jealousy" target="_blank">unhealthy amounts of jealousy</a> can lead a partner to be possessive or controlling, there are also more mild instances of jealousy, which are perfectly normal.</p><p>"[Mild jealousy] can indicate that the partners are still in love with each other enough to care and feel threatened by the idea of [their] partner being attracted to someone else or that someone else is attracted to [their] partner," <a href="http://www.yvonnethomasphd.com/" target="_blank">Yvonne Thomas, licensed psychologist</a>, tells Bustle. "This mild jealousy 'mistake' can actually breathe some life into a relationship that one or both partners may have felt was complacent or stagnant."</p><h2>4. Birth Control Mishaps</h2><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><img src="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/5834ccacdd0895411a8b45e4-2400/undefined" alt="birth control" data-mce-source="Tim Matsui / Stringer" /><p class="source"><span>Tim Matsui / Stringer</span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><p>This is one area where <em>no one</em> wants to mess up. Still, that doesn't mean <a href="https://www.bustle.com/articles/116385-8-birth-control-mistakes-youre-making" target="_blank">birth control mistakes</a> don't happen - and probably more often than we'd like.</p><p>"Many of us are so focused on being perfect the first time around, we don't explore the 'what ifs,'" "Girl Code" host Nessa tells Bustle. "What if something happens and things don't go according to plan? What are my options? This is particularly important when it comes to contraception. Even if you think you are doing everything right, it is important to be informed about your options in the event you need a backup plan."</p><p>Although, in heterosexual relationships, the onus usually falls on women to be 'in charge' of birth control, in reality, avoiding <a href="https://www.babble.com/pregnancy/men-vs-women-who-is-responsible-for-birth-control/" target="_blank">accidental pregnancy is the responsibility of <em>both</em> partners</a>. It's important is that you are able to communicate with your partner about any mishaps that may happen. Missing a few days' worth of pills, though not ideal, is something that can occasionally happen. It's <strong>not</strong> OK to fail to tell your partner this info so the two of you can come up with an alternate birth control plan <em>together</em>.</p><h2>5. Forgetting A Special Event</h2><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><img src="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/5834ccacdd0895411a8b45e5-889/shutterstock418556503.jpg" alt="birthday cake" data-mce-source="Shutterstock" /><p class="source"><span>Shutterstock</span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><p>Although many of us would all like to think we have our sh-- together constantly, sometimes we're so busy that something important slips through the cracks, like failing to put your partner's birthday in your iCal. It might be horrifying to realize a mistake like that and have to make it up to your partner, but at the end of the day, admitting your error is more important than never making the mistake in the first place.</p><p>"As I see it, a one time indiscretion doesn't do the real damage," <a href="http://elinorrobin.com/" target="_blank">Elinor Robin</a>, PhD, LMFT, LMHC, tells Bustle. "The real problems happen when the slights occur as a series over time."</p><p>Try not to be forgetful, but don't be too hard on yourself if you occasionally slip up - after all, that's what flowers and chocolates were invented for.</p><p>"It's OK to make almost any mistake, as long as it doesn't give your partner a sense of being devalued - feeling dismissed, discounted, disrespected, or disenfranchised," Robin says. "So, it's not the mistake that matters: it's the end result [or] consequence of the mistake. The bottom line, no matter what the mistake: you will be able to erase it if you can give your partner a sense of being valued and connected."</p><p>At the end of the day, we all mess up from time to time. What's important is being willing to admit when we're wrong or when we hurt our partner, and working to communicate better together.</p>    <div class="margin-top">        <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/ashley-graham-barbie-2016-11">Barbie made an Ashley Graham doll that promotes body positivity</a></h3>        <div>            <div>    <script src="http://player.ooyala.com/v3/6e12e8b3387a44daacfb73afba25a76e"></script>    <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="plZzhuNzE6hVtS_H-V0t0v_Yu-Ge8Vr4" data-player-variable="ooyalapopvideo" id="ooyalaplayer_popvideo" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div>    <script>    if (typeof RunFunctions === 'undefined') { var RunFunctions = []; }     RunFunctions.push(function()    {         var ooyalapopvideo = OO.Player.create('ooyalaplayer_popvideo', 'plZzhuNzE6hVtS_H-V0t0v_Yu-Ge8Vr4',{ autoplay: 'false' });     });    </script>    <noscript><div>Please enable Javascript to watch this video</div></noscript></div>        </div>        <script>(function() { function createPlayer() { OO.ready(function() { RunFunctions.forEach(function(ooyalaFunction) { ooyalaFunction(); }); RunFunctions = [];}); } createPlayer(); }()); </script>    </div>
