Kyle’s over It — why isn’t Summer?
Summer has been holding on to the fantasy of Kyle for way too long on Young and the Restless. It’s like she’s stuck in an eternal loop of romantic reruns, still hoping that her childhood sweetheart is going to suddenly snap out of it and realize she’s “the one.” But let’s be honest, if Kyle’s eyes were going to wander back in her direction, they would’ve done it by now.
Claire’s Got the Spark…and Kyle’s Attention
Instead of pining for Summer (Allison Lanier), Kyle (Michael Mealor) is smitten with someone else, and not just anyone…her cousin Claire (Hayley Erin). Yikes. That has to sting. But watching Kyle trip over himself to impress Claire while Summer watches from the sidelines is starting to feel like watching the same episode on repeat. It’s time for Summer to change the channel.
Skyle shippers will always argue that Summer and Kyle are endgame. And hey, they have been through a lot together – from stolen kisses to stolen companies, and everything in between. But just because they have history doesn’t mean they have a future. Kyle isn’t just into Claire, he’s positively glowing every time she’s in the room. The man has moved on emotionally, mentally, and romantically, and it’s time for Summer to do the same.
Summer, Stop Waiting for a Man Who’s Already Gone
There’s a whole world of possibilities out there for her. Summer is smart, beautiful, and way too fabulous to be sitting around waiting for a man who’s already emotionally unpacked his bags in someone else’s heart. She deserves fresh chemistry, a new leading man, and maybe even a surprise romance that no one saw coming.
Let’s stop pretending Kyle’s going to wake up one day and realize Claire was just a phase. Summer isn’t anyone’s backup plan. So how about we manifest a bold new chapter for her? One that doesn’t include mooning over her ex-husband and competing with her cousin for his attention. Girl, it’s time to move on!
