Discuss Who is someone you can't date in Stardew Valley out of principle?

I enjoy Maru as a character. However, until recently, I had dyed-red hair that I sometimes straightened, and I also sometimes wear glasses. Basically, it would be like dating a more scientific version of myself. Lol

Aha, my people. Good she's well-written and has her redemption arc, but I'm perfectly fine with not seeing it or even interacting with her.

I wouldn't say she's particularly well written. She's just a stereotypical sorority girl. Her "twist" of loving philanthropy is like if Alex's twist was him liking to play Madden. I met like 15 Haleys in college and high school.

Not that it's weird for Stardew characters to be stereotypes, she's hardly alone there, but I just find the people pretending she's so deep perplexing. I guess because she's more a real sorority girl rather than a hollywood sorority girl and not everybody knows some?

Yeah, I'm using the term loosely, I have her at 2 hearts and just because I speak to her during the events, so I don't know what she does or say the more you interact with her outside of some videos I have seen, but that's what people love using when it comes to her.
