I think Grey fans will forever remember those 6 words for the rest of their lives. I know I definitely would. I gasped and went "Oh my god" when I saw that scene. And it was just brilliant and touching. Imagine a girl, standing in front of a guy, telling him how much she loves him and asking him to choose her.
There was just this sense of vulnerability coming from Meredith. She put herself out there. She became emotionally invested in somebody. She knew she might face the cruel reality of rejection but yet she still did it. She was able to love somebody.
Those familiar with the show will be able to identify with what I've said. We know Meredith is dark and twisty, scary and damaged. She has abandonment issues and mummy issues and had to face the brunt of it when her relationship with Derek was found out. She knows, as well as we do, that she's so emotionally scarred that it's hard for her to let someone in. Hard for her to completely trust someone and love someone because she's scared to want him. And even after the wife thing with Derek, she finally realised how much she loves him and wants him that she was able to overcome her emotional difficulties, although not completely.
I know it's just a scripted TV show but sometimes, it just touches you and it's hard to deny that. Somehow, I can't imagine myself saying that but I think I will if I need to. I'm just that much of a sucker for romance. And I hope that one day, someone will say those same words to me.
"Okay, here it is, your choice... it's simple, her or me, and I'm sure she is really great. But Derek, I love you, in a really really big pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me, choose me, love me." - Meredith Grey
