The trailer for the second half of season 5 has finally dropped! There are so many things to be excited about for the upcoming season. One thing that we are dying to find out answers for is what will happen with Lucifer and Chloe’s relationship?! Last season, we left the two on somewhat rocky grounds, Lucifer seemingly unable to say “I love you”. Of course, time froze at that exact moment and we didn’t get any resolve. In the trailer, Lucifer tells her that if he were to say those three words to her, it would be a lie. So what does this mean for them? We believe there are several reasons as to why Lucifer said this and believes the love he would give to Chloe is not genuine. Let’s figure this out together! Here’s a few of our theories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
LUCIFER FEELS UNWORTHY OF LOVE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is our top reason that we think would make the most sense in this situation. As the devil, Lucifer feels like he doesn’t have the ability to love in the same way that Chloe can. Human emotions don’t always come natural to Lucifer. We need to remember that prior to coming to earth in season one, he ruled Hell. Yes, he has come a long way since then, but still. It reminds us of the quote,\u201cIf you can\u2019t love yourself, how the hell are you going to love somebody else?\u201d Lucifer has a lot of self loathing that he is still working through on the show. Even though we as viewers know Lucifer is capable of loving Chloe, he might not feel as though he can until he loves and accepts himself first. A lot of this could go back to his issues with God. Mentally, Lucifer isn’t ready to take that step in saying I love you when he has things he needs to work through, particularly with his father.<\/p>\n\n\n\n HE NEEDS TO WORK THROUGH DADDY ISSUES FIRST<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The trailer kind of confirms this will play a role in Lucifer and Chloes relationship this season. We hear a voiceover of Lucifer saying that he must work out his relationship with his father, if he is to have a relationship with Chloe. There is definitely a lot of trauma to work through with God, and it is so needed. Remember, the whole reason why Chloe was put in Lucifer’s path was because of the plan that God had for him. Hopefully after Lucifer gets some peace from solving his daddy issues, then he can finally focus on his relationship with Chloe and allow himself to be vulnerable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n HE IS AFRAID OF BEING MENTALLY VULNERABLE <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Saying “I love you” for the first time could be scary, so Lucifers fear of giving himself to Chloe completely could be why he feels as though it would be a lie. Maybe he feels the can be that vulnerable in their relationship, especially when he isn’t physically vulnerable anymore. This could also explain why Lucifer isn’t vulnerable anymore around her. Perhaps he subconsciously is shutting her out because he is afraid of admitting his love out loud to her. Although we know from his actions throughout the seasons that Lucifer does in fact feel very deeply about Chloe, saying it out loud is different. And we all know Lucifer isn’t the best at expressing the way he feels to begin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n HE PHYSICALLY CANT SAY THE WORDS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This reason is probably the least likely, but we figured we would mention it. This was our original theory last season, before he said it would be a lie to say “I love you” in the trailer. This could still turn out to prove true, however it would make the explanation confusing and complex. Maybe when Lucifer became the devil, there was some sort of curse put on him where he is not able to love. Human emotions have always proven difficult for Lucifer so it wouldn’t be too crazy to think. The reason why Lucifer says if he were to say those three words, it would be a lie, is because he isn’t allowed to. Notice how he says “those three words”. In that statement he makes, he won’t even say “if I were to say I love you”. Instead he says those three words. Now this could be totally wrong, but it is definitely interesting to think about. Again, probably the least unlikely theory of ours, but speculating is always fun, and you never know! <\/p>\n\n\n\n MISDIRECTION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the theory that we are thinking could be most likely and would be the biggest twist. Perhaps the “three words” that Lucifer is talking about in the trailer aren’t in fact “I love you” but some other three words that WOULD be a lie to him. Chloe could be upset about something more so plot related and not really her relationship with Lucifer. We know from the trailer that there is going to be A LOT more crazy things going on with having God in the picture and what looks to be a war with Michael. Of course when we see Deckerstar talking about “three words” our minds naturally jump to the “I love you” scenario which was one of our biggest questions going into this second half of the season. Perhaps all of that will resolve sooner than we think and there will be another three words that Lucifer may have to utter that would be a lie to him. Having that Deckerstar scene in the trailer definitely creates a ton of speculation but it could also be a misdirection in order to get us all extremely concerned, which we know the Lucifer crew loves to do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n HE FEELS AS THOUGH THEY TRANSCEND LOVE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This honestly could be even more far fetched than Lucifer just not being able to say the words, but hear us out here. Surely as an immortal being, Lucifers definition of love is different than that of a humans. It’s possible that he feels as though saying I love you would be a lie because what they have is so much bigger. This could be reaching a tad, but Lucifers mind has always been very complex as the devil, so who knows!<\/p>\n\n\n\n These are just a few possibilities for why Lucifer won’t say I love you and feels as though if he did, it would be a lie. Our heads will definitely be spinning until we get answers. We do think that no matter what happens, they will work through it and end up stronger than ever. All we desire is for the two of them to be happy! What are some of your deckerstar theories?
