Was Squirrelflight fair to Ashfur when she realized she wanted to be with Bramblestar?
Be respectful in the comments please.

She literally politely turned him down and wanted to remain friends. He's the one who took it way too personally.

That's kinda hard. She did trick him into thinking she loved him and was pretty rude to him, although he is pretty evil. Dunno, probably no How? Squirrelflight was pretty friendly towards him for the most part, even after she rejected him and even wanted to stay friends with him. Realizing she had feelings for another cat doesn't even come close to tricking him. Her PoV makes it pretty clear that she genuinely liked him.

she was only fair when she rejected him and extended friendship. but part of me is still confused about the "using ashfur to make brambleclaw jealous" argument. has this been confirmed or denied somewhere? like did squirrelflight unconciouslly do this? like she wasnt aware she was doing it, but she was only being friends with ashfur to make brambleclaw jealous? if this isn't true, then let me know the sources! thanks

She was hanging out with Ashfur and genuinely liked him and even considered him as an option for a possible mate someday, but Brambleclaw just happened to get jealous and she found she just liked Brambleclaw more. It was all very unintentional.

She treated him "okay".
Didn't like the idea of her running to him every time she and Bramble had disagreements. But she did turn him down politely.

I didn't like that either, but she treated him fairly and was patient enough with him when she turned him down.

I accidentally selected no, but I meant to say yes. She genuinely considered him as a romantic partner and turned him down as gently as she could. I don't know what she could have done differently.

Hollyfall and 𝓣𝓲𝓷𝓾𝓿𝓲𝓮𝓵 Said everything perfectly. Squirrelflight was fair, polite, and respectful by turning him down. She shouldn't feel obligated to stay with him just because he likes her.

Hollyfall said it best and posted the scene in question with that. I couldn't have said it better and there is nothing to add.

i think she handled the situation fairly well. ashfur handled it horribly and was practically an incel, begging her to love him.

But she kept crawling back to Ashfur every time she and Brambleclaw had an argument. I don't remember exactly what happened, but they were both getting really close, so I can kind of understand where Ashfur was coming from when he thought they were together. Her becoming closer to Ashfur was causing tension between both Bramble and Ash, and it kind of ruined the friendship between them if I'm remembering correctly. She didn't try to hurt Ashfur. But I see where people are coming from when they feel she unintentionally used him. Squirrelflight was in denial with both characters, kept flipping back and forth, only going to Ashfur for comfort every time Brambleclaw got mad at her for something. If it wasn't for Leafpool, this probably would've kept happening. It's like Squirrelflight couldn't make up her mind about these two, but at least she's handled a lot better than some characters who couldn't make up their minds, lol. This doesn't mean I support Ashfur's behavior by any means. I'm just saying I see where Ashfur fans are coming from when they say Squirrelflight used him. It's like how Dovewing used Bumblestripe to move on from Tigerheart, she was stringing him along, similar to Squirrelflight stringing Ashfur along every time she and Bramble fought. Even her own clan thought they were together. I don't want Squirrelflight fans to get pissed at me please, I'm just saying this is why many of her haters think she used him. It may not have been intentional, but I see why some people think that.

crowspirit You can unselect no. Just click the "no" option again and the green check mark will disappear and you'll be able to vote "yes." And yes, Squirrelflight was fair to Ashfur. He was the only one unable to get over it and move on to someone else as normal people do.

She treated him okay.
I'm only saying that just because I got triggered when she said “I never meant to hurt you, but Brambleclaw—well, I think StarClan has destined us to be together.”

I felt like she was being too indecisive. She was constantly going to Ashfur and then Brambleclaw and so on, I don't like it. But she's rejected him nicely and it's Ashfur's fault everything happened.
