    I think getting old is when you realize that Mulder is completely irrational, his instincts are wrong 99% of the time, and he’s kind of a dick sometimes. Often. He’s so over-invested in his own personal drama that he misses almost everything that happens around him.

    In comparison, Scully is super open minded, if you show her an alien she’ll be like “yup that’s an alien” and immediately start studying xeno-biology. Despite Mulder’s horrible track record she’ll often give his outlandish ideas the benefit of the doubt and try to bear with him.
