I was so surprised that it actually ended happily bc I wouldn't put it past the writers to give us a "realistic" ending. Anyways, I loved the fact that you could tell that the MML had definite golden retriever energy while the female lead was colder, yet still super nice. I'll admit, the break-up past portion could've been done differently IMO but it wasn't too bad. It was understandable why they broke up in the past and when all else fails, you can always use the excuse that they were too young to know any better. Either way, both characters made mistakes and deserved to be with each other in the end.
