was jane ever good for jesse?

i mean, i love jesse and jane, i literally talk about how i'm jane and everything, because i usually go for guys that have either an emotional or physical similarity with jesse. but like was jesse ever good for jane? or was jane ever good for jesse? literally every time i talk about this with my friends it always ends up with them saying that jesse is toxic and me defending them, but now that i'm thinking about it, it was kinda toxic ngl.
but sometimes i also think that jane wasn't good for jesse? it's really controversial because everyone loves jane, but she literally showed him how to shoot up H. also she pretended like her and jesse were nothing in front of her dad. i get the daddy issues (been there, done that) but she shouldn't hurt him, because of her traumas. and even after her dad was gone, she still pretended like it wasn't a big deal. also, she was really greedy for jesse's money even going as far as to call walter for jesse eventhough jesse was (kinda) chill about it. i don't know if she was always like that or if jesse made her that way, but i feel like she could've acted better, or think about her actions before going through with it.
as for jesse, i wonder if he pulled jane back into her addiction, because he himself was struggling with his substance abuse, and maybe jane was actually good but just turned into whatever that is because of the substances. i'm wondering if she would've relapsed even without jesse or if she only relapsed because of jesse. if jane never met jesse, would she have stayed sober? i just think it's like a butterfly effect, because jane relapsed after she got together with jesse and jane's death traumatized jesse to the point where he pulled a bender and only got out because walter forced him into a help program.


idk, i'm just tired, and i want to know what everyone else thinks about it. and even after all the shit i said, i still love jesse and jane, they're literally my parents. i'm just wondering if they were good for each other or if i'm just delusional.

They were horrible for each other. They were not made to be a "me n who" type of relationship, and not only for the obvious "oh she was a recovering addict and he was producing and consuming meth" reason.

Truth is: she never really cared for Jesse.
They never had anything serious in the first place. She never treated Jesse seriously, she always saw him as someone to amuse herself with. Also a reason why she introduces Jesse to heroin.

She knew he was an addict/dealer (as she mentions herself) and just waited for the occasion to get back to drugs (basically the point of her character anyway). Things start to get bad when she relapses. She becomes increasingly manipulative toward Jesse, her dad, and even Walter, completely lost in her addiction and neediness for Jesse/Walt's money.

Personally, I don't think she had daddy issues in the first place by the way. Her dad wasn't hurting her in any way, she just wanted him to feel bad. Her dad was the only one who was actually helping her.

Jesse, on the other hand, was easily manipulable. He lets Jane do whatever to him just like he lets Walt do; he wants to trust them because he loves them.

The only thing I can find him accusable of is not stopping Jane from relapsing, but he was an addict as well. Plus, he can't say no to people.

Generally, they weren't good for each other and that's the point of their relationship.
