Do Rue and Jules Break Up?

While Rue and Jules resume their relationship, Rue hides the truth about her frequent drug use from Jules. Moreover, Rue and Jules’ friendship with Elliott complicates their dynamics. Eventually, Elliott reveals Rue’s addiction to Jules, who then tells everything to Rue’s mom. In the fifth episode of season 2, Rue learns that Jules told her mom about her drug use and is furious at her girlfriend. Rue blames Jules for leaving her at her lowest and declares that she regrets meeting Jules. While Jules reaffirms that she loves Rue, the latter ends things between them and asks Jules to stay away from her life.
Will They Get Back Together?
Rue’s addiction has made her feelings for Jules complicated. While she is angry at Jules for ratting her out, it seems like Rue’s feelings are coming from a deeper emotional scar caused by Jules’ actions. Thus, it is hard to imagine the two getting back together unless Rue heals herself completely. Of course, Rue may recognize that she said things she did not mean and apologize to Jules. If Jules forgives Rue and resumes their relationship, it will set the two on a toxic path and upset their emotional state in the long run. Hence, Jules might not be eager to get back together with Rue so soon.

On the other hand, Jules cheated on Rue by sleeping with Elliott. If Rue finds out the truth, it could be the final nail in the coffin for their relationship. Moreover, Jules could feel guilty for cheating and may decide it is best not to resume her relationship with Rue. All things said, there is a fair amount of drama in Rue and Jules’ lives, which they need to resolve before thinking about their romantic future. The two have fought and made up in the past, so another reunion isn’t entirely out of the question. However, it would be best if Rue and Jules remained a part of each other’s life without the burden of maintaining a relationship.
