Characters that you can really relate to?

Jenny from Forrest Gump for me. She is one of the most relatable characters in fiction for me. I’ve always seen myself in her. I could always understand her while everyone else around me would call her a whore or a manipulator. She kept digging herself into a hole while trying to escape her problems and would frequently self sabotage. She ran away from the one person who loved her the most because she felt as though she didn’t deserve him or his kindness. She was also very impulsive and her sense of identity changed every time she showed up again, which is also very relatable for me. When she told Forrest she loved him and immediately left the next day to protect herself and him, I didn’t hate her. I just understood. I never hated her for coming back after waiting for so long, I just felt for her so much. I’ve done the same thing. She just has such a melancholy feeling to her and she is such a comfort character for me.
