@@Y2JAZZ1 I agree with u. We can't honestly expect his human companions to cope so well with his transformations even tho the same man was always still in there at some point. River goes through the same things and literally adapts in every way naturally and in turn had it so much easier to accept him in every form. We humans only get one life, and one physical image and our eyes have a HUGE roll in who we choose and see when it comes to love, so changing ur lovers or anyone's face, (to a human), is such a drastic change and would take so much more time to get use to and get our brain and heart to realize it's the same person we actually know and love.

Both are great but this isn't true. Rewatch the episode where River meets 10, she never truly accepts him as her doctor. She questioned 10 more than Rose ever did, which isn't her fault but my point is she didn't accept all his transformations as her own doctor.

Elena Monfils it’s not that deep. You’re thinking too hard and are assuming a lot. Davies clearly intended him to be in love with her, as she was with him. This is further shown by the finale of s2 where he was clearly about to say he loved her. Then in s4, they kissed after he told her what he was going to say. It’s very clear that Davies wrote him to be, in the literal use of the term, in love with Rose. You’re really overthinking and are making up random headcanon, when its been shown and proven to be the opposite.

What kills me the most about this scene is that not only has River absolutely convinced herself that the Doctor doesn't love her back, and she's accepted it....but also, how very wrong she is and the fact that Capaldi says a mere handful of words yet you can tell from the sheer emotion on his face that both of the Doctors hearts broke because He's ALWAYS loved her and the fact that she doesn't realize that hurts him...ugh THIS SCENE

@alecbormia4523

Well I think it's also that the doctor just in general has a very hard time expressing his feelings to somebody. He has been harmed so much over his nearly immortal life that I feel like he feels putting himself out there just means he will inevitably get hurt and so by not saying his emotions he's able to deny it to himself. So even though the doctor does love her he never really expressed it before this very scene which I think is what led River to feel that he didn't love her since he would just brush the idea off or not talk about it.

@@borsniel7767 One of the reasons why Smith is a better Doctor is that he could do both. Capaldi can ham it up in certain scenes but there's always a sense that he's out of his comfort zone when he does. He's only in his element when he's doing the more dramatic stuff. Smith can make the Doctor's goofy and off-the-wall insanity look completely natural whilst also being able to convey his serious side with those too-old-for-his-young-face eyes. Capaldi's Season 8 Doctor would have been perfect for the Time War but not for a Doctor who had moved on from that event. Smith captured the Doctor effortlessly in his very first episode while Capaldi spent his entire first season trying to figure out if he should be the Doctor who spends centuries blasting Daleks to pieces and throwing people to the wolves (which he did to Clara TWICE) or a Doctor who's just travelling with the people he loves.

‏‪2:44‬‏ "Hello, sweetie" Hit harder than any other love confession.

"Hush, Mummy and Daddy are talking" I love that. Almost as soon as River recognises Twelve as the Doctor, she takes it in her stride and continues on. A stark contrast from Clara's initial 'I don't see you as the Doctor despite you literally regenerating in front of me' thing. I think it's a nice subtle nod to just how different their relationships are.

I think the problem is that we the audience didn't get to see what Clara went through after the 11th Doctor's regeneration, remember regeneration can be a very dramatic experience for the Doctor, both the 5th and 6th Doctor had psychological breakdowns for example. From our point of view Clara had a wild ride with Doctor and that's it, kinda of hard to relate to her issues in that regard because that is something she should already be use to.
