stranger things s3
STRANGER THINGS S3 SPOILER!!! you’ve been warmed
um so i watched stranger things s3 yesterday and i’m fucking crying I HATE MY LIFE I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT HOPPER IS DEAD and can we pls talk about all the mileven content we got wtf i love it so much
-we shared our first kiss together and i still don’t regret it-
“mike..”
“yeah?”
“remember that day, at the cabin. you were talking to max?”
“i don’t think i follow?”
“you were talking about your- your feelings. about your heart.”
“oh- oh, yeah, that. man.. that was um.. so long ago. um.. that was really heat of the moment stuff, and we were arguing and.. i don’t really remember.. what did i say exactly?”
“mike..-“
“i love you, too.”
I’m just trying to demonstrate how careless max is with eleven’s powers. In fact, how careless all of you are! you’re treating her like some kind of machine when she’s not a machine, and i don’t want her to be looking for the flayed when they have obviously vanished off the face of earth. so can we PLEASE just come with a new plan
because i love her and i can’t lose her again!
Mike and Eleven remind me of one of those middle school couples that thought they’d be together forever but end up breaking up over some stupid shit during a school dance.

This post just reminded me of this thought I had the other day- Ik mike is an empty headed dumb dumb and Nancy can be kinda mean but sometimes I just remind myself that both Nancy and Mike don’t really know what actual romantic love is. Their parents obviously weren’t in love so that didn’t teach them shit and neither of them had someone to teach them. Nancys relationship with Steve ended on extremely bad terms and they obviously didn’t really talk about love and it probably didn’t happen with Jonathan as they were kinda constantly busy- And poor Mikes one relationship was kinda on/off in a sense and obviously El has no idea how to possibly explain love as she’s also very new to it. Thanks for listening to my Ted talk :)
i want to see robin and nancy fall in love and have it go so well in the beginning
but i want to see nancy struggle saying that she loves robin and i want robin to take that to heart because she's hardly had anyone in her corner and feels like nancy only sees her as a summer fling and nothing serious
and they have an argument and robin storms out of the wheeler's house and ends up at steve's and refuses to talk to nancy for days on end
meanwhile nancy is losing her shit and practices saying 'i love you robin' to herself in the mirror meanwhile steve tells robin that nancy hardly ever says i love you because 'that's just how the wheelers are'
and then they run into each other on their own late night walks and apologize in tears and nancy says i love you and robin kisses her in return and pulls away to say i love you too
best ships honestly
Stranger Things season 4 ships + “I’m right here.”
okay this is... fair. like really fair. ppl like to say she's stupid, and she's obviously not, which is shown time and time again. and we know this.
BUT, THAT BEING SAID, even though el really does like mike (from what i can tell), mike doesn't like her back (romantically ofc).
mike is like lowkey the opposite of el feelings-wise. he doesn't like el ROMANTICALLY, BUT he wants to stay in a relationship with her, kind of. for some reason he doesn't want to break up, but when they did, he didn't seem to care all too much. HOWEVER, he also really wants el to like him?? he needs her to rely on him, hell, he needs ANYONE to rely on him, bc im guessing personal probs, but i digress.
we see in the car scene that he puts el on a pedestal, which creates a power imbalance in the relationship. all the while, in ca, we learn el isn't being honest with him. so not only does mike put her on a pedistal, everyone around her in ca is showing her she's less than the average person. so there's 1 person who believes she's great, obviously she's gonna lie about how OTHERS treat her because if other people dont like me what if the person i like doesnt like me anymore? which means she's putting up a front the whole time she's around mike.
so now mike is expected to like el's persona/act as well. BUT BUT BUT mike is ALSO putting on an act in ca. i mean, did you see the way he's dressed?? now, that could just be for fun, but i don't know, mike doesn't seem like the type, maybe that's just me.
and on top of that, a major amount of the time they're together they're upset with each other or just dismissive in general. wether it be trivial or not.
so when you put this ALL together, you have el, who likes mike, but also hates him for how he treats her, and then there's mike, who doesn't really wanna get involved romantically with her, but can't stand to see her being independent because he wants her to rely on him.
so this is why most people say that el and mike shouldn't be together. NOT SOLELY BECAUSE el "doesn't understand love."
TLDR: el likes mike but mike doesn't like her back & that's why most shippers in the st fandom are anti mileven
ALSO A POSTNOTE (PS) ABOUT THE TAGS ON THE OG POST:
okay i have a few probs w them mostly because they're.. presumptuous and accusative
um, they're not forced to be together, yes, but you can't deny that at that age they may feel as if they should be, especially when all their friends (except will) are in/ getting in relationships.
next, no one said they had to be experts when it comes to relationships or love, but it's obvious their relationship isn't making either of them happy. el may want a RELATIONSHIP with mike but she doesn't want a relationship with MIKE, if you get what my emphasis emplies. she obviously knows mike doesn't treat her the way a bf should treat his gf, which is shown time and time again, even after she tells mike what she expects, he just doesn't bother, because he doesn't feel that romantic inclination ykw im sayin'?
and no mike isn't BAD for her, per se, but maybe bad for HER. again, pick up what my tones are implying. mike isn't bad in general and it happens to affect her, mike is bad for what eleven is looking for in a relationship. they obviously have different priorities. SO, in that sense, mike IS bad for her.
I’m sorry but-
How tf is El not already an independent individual who can make her own decisions. Yeah she might not know much when she met Mike but that doesn’t negate the way she feels for him even when she couldn’t put her feelings into words yet. She’s not stupid evidently.
So can other shippers stop claiming she can’t be in a relationship because of her limited knowledge of love?? She can be in a healthy relationship with Mike because she feels happy with him. Why take that away just to promote other ships and claim that she will be better alone. Like she wasn’t separated from him enough times in the fucking show.
She is happy and in love with him.
Let. It. Go.

Somebody pointed out this parallel and im losing my mind

why should i have to choose?
don’t get mad at my opinion but i think we all know that byler is never gonna happen in ST5 . will might be in love with mike but mike is in love with el and even if/when will tells mike how he feels about him it will always be a unrequited love. i love will he’s my favorite character in the show and i think he deserves a happy ending but i also know that mike doesn’t feel like that with him and i hate that for will but be realistic.
and im not gonna argue with you people
