I don't get why Fran was with Hannah.  But I don't think that it was evident that he couldn't stand her while they were together.  She did some crazy sh!t when they were together, and he objected to some of that, but generally seemed like a nice guy who was invested in the relationship.  He let a lot slide.  Maybe I'm just not remembering his controlling behavior- I'll have to rewatch his scenes.

When you mention his continuing to argue after the breakup do you mean when they were on the road trip? What she did there would have made a saint see red.  They had plans for the entire summer, rented the RV, everything was hunky dory and then an hour down the road she flips out and acts like he is attacking her when he wants to talk to her to figure out what is happening.  She begs him to leave and after he does she complains about him deserting her.

I realize that in Lena Dunham's summary afterwards she spun it like Fran was the bad guy in that relationship, but that's just crazy defending crazy.  She's too in love with Hannah to acknowledge how horrid she is.[/quote]

I didn't watch the whole notes talk after that episode, but did catch that and was really surprised that she was saying pretty saying much what Hannah was said  Along the lines of, "Hannah realized Fran wasn't really a nice guy."  Ummm...because he corrected a kid's grammar an an English assignment?[/quote]

No, because he wouldn't respect her right to handle her own work as she saw fit. It wasn't his paper to grade or his decision, but he wouldn't accept that even after she explained her reasoning. That is controlling.

And no, not the road trip, the arguing when they returned to her apartment when he was yelling "I'm a nice guy! I never yell! You're making me yell!" and trying to convince her that she'd be sorry for dumping him. That was crazy. Maybe not Hannah-level crazy, but still crazy.[/quote]
