But after all this time, there's still one thing that haunts me every day of my life.

It's not that Heidi clearly chose her relationship with Spencer over her friendship with Lauren...

Or that they straight-up replaced LC with her archenemy, Kristin Cavallari, to keep the show going for two more seasons...

IT'S THE FACT THAT LAUREN PICKED HANGING OUT WITH HER BOYFRIEND OVER AN INTERNSHIP IN ~PARIS, FRANCE~.

BUT YOU DID, LAUREN. YOU DID.

BUT YOU DID, LAUREN. YOU DID.

Now, listen. I'm just as big of a fan of true love as anyone else, and I'll admit at one point in time Lauren and Jason were my OTP...

But alas, she chose what looked like true love over her career.

Even though we never saw any real footage of that summer in Malibu, the first episode of the next season was very telling.

Basically, it's been years since The Hills ended, but LC might never live it down.
