1. Meredith Messing Up With The Alzheimer’s Trial
It is argued that Meredith did the right thing by messing up with the Alzheimer’s trial to help Adele. However, her doing so ruined the whole validity of the trial. Her one decision also got Derek blacklisted from any further trials with the FDA. So, Meredith’s one decision helped Adele but was wrong for Derek and the other participants.
2. Meredith’s Treatment Towards Amelia
After Derek’s death, Meredith was grief-stricken. It was understandable. However, the way she treated Amelia wasn’t right. Meredith often turned cold. It was her personality trait. But this trait isn’t viewed as something nice.
3. Derek’s Family Wasn’t Informed While He Was Dying
While Derek was dying, Meredith didn’t care to inform his family who could’ve at least met him while he was taking his last breaths. Moreover, nobody other than Meredith got to meet Derek. Derek’s family was of doctors. So, they could’ve helped in some way or the other.
4. Even After Mutually Deciding To Give Each Other A Chance, Meredith Was Always Pushing Derek Away
Throughout the third season, we can see Meredith and Derek trying to work it out between each other. However, Meredith continued dating Finn. Secondly, when Derek tried saving her life from drowning in the bathtub, she was not thankful. Derek was giving his 100%, whereas, Meredith was holding back! This shouldn’t have been her attitude if she would have agreed with Derek to work things out. Or she shouldn’t have agreed in the first place.
5. Meredith’s Mistreatment Of Deluca
Andrew Deluca time and again proved how good a boyfriend he is. But, Meredith never acknowledged or valued the relationship, or Andrew for that matter. She always sidelined him for other things.
6. Meredith Was Jealous Of How Cristina’s Career Was Flourishing
Even though they were friends, Meredith was jealous of what all Cristina could achieve and she couldn’t. This led to both of them getting involved in unhealthy competition. One fine day they finally came face to face with each other. Cristina’s reaction was bad, but Meredith’s treatment was worse given the fact of what all Cristina was going through then and Meredith knowing about it!
7. Even Though Meredith Wanted Derek, She Slept With George
Oh, Girl! If you know you want someone, why go with the other one and hurt his feelings too? When George first saw Meredith, he fell for her. The feelings were too strong. However, Meredith never felt the same for him, yet she decided to sleep with him.
