He’s a little rough, definitely, but I don’t think the FL does things without thinking. She literally had to deal with constant neglect and being overlooked growing up by everybody but her sister. The same sister that FL took what she thought would be too much of a burden on her because she loves and appreciates her that much, and it’s definitely a life she has to adjust to before she feels confident in her position as her own person away from the only position in life she knew: her sister’s protector and shadow. So no, I’m not surprised that she feels somewhat unsettled when she sees her sister and husband getting along, because that part of her that feels insecure next to her sister is still a part of her because she hasn’t had the time to work through it.
She’s not dumb, she’s literally scarred in non-visible ways that she hasn’t been able to address in the short time she’s been separated from her family.
