I loved that she didn't end up with Jonathan at the end of the first season specifically because the whole "dating the unpopular kid is the ~right~ choice" thing is so overdone & I'm 100% sick of it. Steve is a good dude. If he's not right for Nancy, I mean, that's fine, but nothing about season 2 proved to me that she had any chemistry whatsoever with Jonathan. Couldn't she just have broken up with Steve then remained platonic friends with both of them? Why force her into a relationship at all (especially when the "forcing" involves some creepy old dude trying to manipulate them into sleeping with each other in his house)?

They did a hell of a lot to make Steve the most sympathetic one of the three, though, which is the main reason I'm so confused by it.

Yeah, I still would have been sad if Steve and Nancy's relationship had just not made it for all the understandable reasons related to her grief and them being really young, etc., and I was really crushed by the Halloween episode just because they committed fully to showing Steve's heartbreak but I thought all that was really well done and realistic...and then she takes off with Jonathan and it's all about forcing them together with the intervention of a creepy adult whose pseudo-instincts about their relationship are fed straight out of the manual of Telling Rather Than Showing.
