El hasn't been taught anything like that because it's a TV show and she's a character. If the show presents her as being with Mike because she likes him, then it's because she really does like him, not because she's putting up with a guy she considers mediocre.

I dislike Mike too and think both El and Will are idiots for liking him. They all deserve each other.

I'm not sure I understand your argument. She's a fictional character, so she's not going to have any nuances to her personality as though she's real and we should take everything at face value? That... doesn't seem very logical. For that matter, it's entirely possible to like someone AND remain with them because they're mediocre. I'm not sure you realize that IRL, those two things are directly connected and that's part of the problem.

Ehhh, I think OP's point re: "women are taught..." is about the audience watching this romance play out. We see this extraordinary female character in love with a male character who is portrayed just doing the bare minimum.
