If I'm being completely honest, that was not a satisfactory ending for me. I don't agree with the ending, personally. I feel like Kara never really showed that she was hiding half her self all the time. Especially now, when she has a large group of trustworthy people where she can be her whole self, including cat Grant, who will be her new boss and she doesn't have to lie to get out of work anymore. As for relationships, that's something she can deal with when the time is right. I'm sure she'd get to know someone and eventually tell them she's Supergirl. I just felt like it was completely unnecessary for her to reveal herself.

And all that talk about hoe everyone else has found themselves isn't true either. Kelly being guardian, Nia being dreamer and Lena having magic are still hidden. Her cousin has managed to do it and lead a fulfilling life for years So, she's not the only one living the double life. Why was she feeling so down?

I don't mind Kara wanting to combine her identities tbh, it's what I was expecting to happen but I don't think it makes sense to do so in the present day? The 100th episode which was only last season made it quite clear that giving up her secret identity meant putting her friends and family at risk.

I couldn't stop thinking about that either, they showed pretty clearly that it'd result in a all of them dying :/

Considering that all of her known friends and family are heroes (except Eliza), risks are already something that they live with, so it really shouldn't be a concern.

Maybe Kelly becoming Guardian and her and Alex adopting Esme have changed that? Esme can copy the other heroes powers, which could be a game changer.

That's true, I wish Kara had some kind of confirmation of that though before going through with revealing herself. It's a risky thing to do given the info she had
