I can get behind Nancy and Mateo too because they both seem like kind people at heart and thinking about their personalities and who they are in general I could see how they are a match. I do have something to say but I’m not sure how it will be interpreted because it isn’t really a complaint just an observation and an opinion. I would like to see Mateo and Nancy develop as people (characters, really) on their own before they got together because we know sooo little about both of them. Of course they can still do that when (if) they get together but I would have liked to know more about Nancy as a person and who she likes in another person and more about her background in general and the same for Mateo. I think we’ll get that again but I would have liked to see them developed a bit more on their own before this? I’m probably the only one who thinks that. Just my two cents. And although I think Nancy and Mateo would be cute, I can’t help but wonder was this always the plan? It doesn’t really matter if it was because I’m here for it and plans change all the time. But I ask because I wonder if every person on the show HAS to be coupled up. There’s no issue with that on my end at all but I wonder why? Nancy and Mateo are cute. Paul and Marjan are also cute (way cuter imo because they’re building them up) but I just wonder? I like Nancy and Mateo as a concept and I know not everyone stays single forever because that’s not realistic especially in a tv show but everyone is hinting at being coupled up and I wonder what’s wrong with not every character getting into a relationship especially with another main character? I hope this doesn’t seem like I’m being mean about Nancy and Mateo because I’m not. The idea of them is cute but I just wonder? I think these two have the potential to be a nice couple but this is just my question and opinion
That's a fair point. I think it's good to start the romantic build up, but I don't want to see that at the expense of their personal growth. We've gotten more Mateo development lately, which has been great, but we haven't had too many serious or main stories from him. He's kind of very much sidelined a lot. The same is true of Nancy, and she's had even fewer storylines about her, so there's still a lot to learn about her. With Paul and Marjan, it's easier because they've been close friends for so long, and they're starting a little later with Nancy and Mateo (plus it seems like they're going heavier on romantic vibes sooner). Also, in general, I don't want to just see Owen's dating life (we've also seen Tommy kind of sort of date but that didn't go well lol), but I think seeing other characters like Marjan, Paul, Nancy, or Mateo kind of dating other people before seeing an established relationship would be good. Just because I think that would ease the just pairing everyone off vibes a little hahaha. But I'm pretty open to seeing whatever the writers choose to do going forward and seeing how the trajectory of all the couples are different.
