There's so many things I didn't notice when it was one of THE big deals of the 90s that bug me now.

I feel like their relationship involves a lot of low-key toxic relationship tropes/elements that, in to 90's, we had yet to really have a cultural conversation about. We weren't living in a time when we'd all casually clicked on or past 500 think pieces on toxic (or otherwise unhealthy) relationships telling us what to look for, what it means, and how to feel about it. So a lot of the tropes that now seem like red flags for a shitty relationship didn't seem like red flags at the time.

I definitely agree with what you're saying. I remember even my mum, who was overall fairly progressive for the 90s, regularly said things like "he's doing it because he probably likes you and/or is jealous!" when a boy at school was shitty to me. There's a lot of low-level things we just accepted as the way things are that probably weren't getting talked about yet.
