The outliers in Rory Gilmore’s life is how her father left her mother at a young age and that can be a huge impact for her because she might feel lonely or depressed. During her childhood, she might have felt lonely because she might have wanted to spend time with her dad by going out to the mall or go to the park with him. Another outlier can be Rory breaking up with Dean twice during the first or second season just to be with her ex-boyfriend Jess. Her difficulties in relationships may be another effect of why she might be moody or upset. The major thing that happened in her life was putting down Logan’s marriage proposal after her graduation at Yale college. She thought about her values and how they are important to her than anything else.
