the thing i like about the relationships in avatar is the girls are allowed to get upset at the guys they like without being seen as the bad guy. katara gets angry because aang kisses her right after she opens up about feeling confused and aang is downright ashamed, mai is angry because zuko is acting too possessive and zuko is immediately put in the doghouse, and suki is upset because sokka is treating her like shes a damsel in distress when she can hold her own and sokka apologizes for it. now we know from the guys point of view they dont mean harm but they did cause harm and therefore the girls have every right to be upset. this is really important for kids to see so they (especially girls) know they can call out behavior they dont like in a relationship and also learn from the characters they love making mistakes of their own.
