No, Steve longs for the past in part because it's what he knows. He feels displaced in the future. I prefer the idea of him acclimatizing to the present, too, but it's just plain incorrect to argue that the only reason Steve wanted to go back was for Peggy. Peggy was a big part of it, and I RME at that too, but the narrative has always been clear on the fact that Steve doesn't feel at home in the present.

So he stays because he wants to be in a time that feels more like home to him, and to be with Peggy.

It's not like he has a lot of super close relationships in the present. He has work friends. Very good work friends that he cares about, but work friends nonetheless. Work friends and Bucky. Bucky is really the one glaring problem with the whole thing, as far as I'm concerned.

His whole narrative arch was about making a new home after an unrecoverable loss. Going into the past destroys the whole thing and makes his journey meaningless.

I feel that way, too. But the alternative viewpoint is that you've misconstrued the nature of Steve's narrative arc. I suspect that's what the Endgame writers would say. They clearly thought the end they gave him concluded his narrative arch, which strongly implies they viewed Steve's arch differently than we do. *shrugs*

DA In which case the Endgame writers are idiots.

I would be very interested to know what that could possibly be. The simplest explanation is that they got scared of the gay.

Same here. It certainly looked that way.
