I'm not saying Lawrence and Condola were perfect/didn't have some bumps in the road like many new relationships do, but he was def still in communication with Condola as season 4 ended - right down to the night he and Issa hooked up and (briefly) rekindled their relationship.

That hookup, and the subsequent curbing of both Condola and Nathan, wasn't some inevitable thing that needed to happen; he and Issa could have just cleared the air/settled their differences as peaceful exes without going there.

In fact, even if they were overcome with attraction, they could've just fucked the one last time and moved on without disrupting their other prospects. This is especially evident given the way Issa did an abrupt 180 on Lawrence after all that fuss and, predictably as per her usual nonsense, made a beeline back to Nathan.

Sorry, but I just feel like if we remove the fact that Lawrence loves/cares for Issa she's essentially been nothin short of a villain in this man's life. The cheating, the using, the inconsistency, etc. Reverse the genders and she's a textbook fuckboy lol
