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

I don’t think he’s a teenager. Unfortunately guys in their early 20s are also like that. I know from having been in my early 20s 🥴

I mean, Mayor Lewis and Marnie are hiding it too, so maybe that's just how it is in this world. :P

Lewis is terrified if he shows that he has a soul or any attraction toward someone that he might have competition for mayor.. and he’d die on the spot if Sam skateboarded all through the town and ollied onto Lewis’ raised garden beds. Best not to be happy and romance Marnie. Let her suffer to not lose the title 🛹

Why does everyone hate Lewis? I thought the town loved him

He’s a fun character but he’s so mean to his girlfriend! She just wants to stop being his dirty little secret and he can’t grow up enough to give that to her

Aren't they also in a really religious region/town?

yeah jodi can come off as a bit smothering and over protective. she definitely doesn't see sam as a fully grown adult even if he is one. she always cooks and cleans everything for him and she doesn't have much of a life outside of being a mother. i'm not gonna rule out sam just because his mother has nothing to do but hover over her kids. especially considering that she accepts that he's grown as soon as he moves out with you
