And in their time together in seasons 1 and 2, I get the sense of some major bonding going on.
Of course, though I still don't like Second Season Rose (Liked First season well enough). The Doctor just lost his entire race, of course he's going to be more clingy with his next companion.
It's not that the Doctor has preferences or that he likes certain people more than others. Everyone does that. What bothers me is the 'True Love, Doctor and Rose fated to be together' thing that bugs me. I don't mind Doctor/Companion ships, I don't, but I don't think Doctor/Rose is the OTP of all OTPs and it feels like everywhere I go, that is shoved down my throat by the truckload.
And it's worse when the main writer/creator is one of them doing the shoving.
I can understand the Doctor being upset about losing Rose but that doesn't excuse the way he treated Martha - brushing her off and keep going on about Rose and how amazing she apparently was. He refused to properly deal with it, made almost no attempts to get over her, and hurt Martha by doing it.

I don't know where this rant came from but I had to get it out. ^^U
