Man watching these videos just always leaves me thinking that Miranda deserved better friends. Better friends would have recognized and validated the fact that Steve was taking advantage of Miranda and manipulating her into getting what he wanted
Literally I was so shocked when the girls were like “it’s been 6 months you should forgive him” wtf!!!!! If my friend got cheated on, I would have his head
Right? Her friends should have been on her side with the whole child thing. At least Charlotte should have said it was way too soon. Like 2 months in and you're talking about a child???
Samantha was the best friend of the group. And Charlotte told her not to date Steve. Although Charlotte didn't want her with Steve bc Miranda was more successful she had a point
And notice the puppy's bed is on her side of the bed. Remember after Brady was born and Miranda was trying to get away with Carrie and Steve couldn't even watch HIS CHILD for like a weekend???
Yes, this was my immediate thought. How does he support her in her career? We've only seen the time he didn't show up for her because it would be too awkward for him to be the only lower middle class person
Steve really doesn't strike me as a chill guy--he comes off as dismissive. When Miranda is worried about something, he never wants to hear about it. He just shuts her down. At least in these clips we don't hear him say, "Wow, this is really getting to you. What's really going on? Tell me; we can work through it because it's probably not as bad as it seems right now." Even if he knows she's just going to vent for a bit and solve the problem herself. A chill person would be strong enough to take the more stressed person's stress. While Steve can only be chill as long as he never has to deal with anything negative. When it comes to Steve's own priorities, he's extremely reactive. A chill person is confident enough to say, "I know this is silly to you but it makes me happy" or "You have to work? Booo you'll miss seeing my sweet moves" without blowing a fuse. When something doesn't go Steve's way, he can't handle it. If you're only chill as long as you never have to deal with any problems, that's not being chill. Who is the controlling one in this dynamic again? I couldn't permit someone watching TV when I'm trying to have a serious conversation. I can't imagine my husband doing that. We're very low confrontation people so if I even talk to him in a serious voice, gets his attention right away.
Im watching the show with my wife who’s seen it a few times. She told me about Steve and Miranda and saw them as an adorable couple. Until I began pointing out how Steve is taking advantage of Miranda and not respecting Miranda’s home. I’m surprised people think they’re so great because honestly and truly she deserved better.
"Let's hope the baby inherits my positive attitude" WHAT BABY? She just said she doesn't want one right now! So instead of trying to make Miranda see his perspective on having a child and how he thinks it would be a good ideia, he straight up dismisses her wants, like having a baby with him is a given. "I know we are having a baby anyway, so let's hope they aren't a b-word like you, the woman I chose to be their mother"
"Let's hope the baby inherits my positive attitude" said while being extremely judgemental and negative towards your mother-girlfriend who is already doing everything for you......rancid.
“Slowly increasing his piss” is a hilarious way to say “getting progressively more pissed”. 😂 love it, the visual alone… As a fellow polyglot, I love creating new ways to say stuff when it’s not my first language. Love your content!!
Miranda's character is still million times better than Carrie's. Carrie is toxic and narcissistic but miranda strikes me as someone who had to work hard in life who was trained by her family dynamic to always be the responsible one in life and in relationships and while she loved Steve she couldn't ask him to be there for her the way she needs him to be: which is share the responsibilities with her. And he abused that, then more and more she couldn't even talk to him to even ask him that because everytime she does he dismisses her and brand her as not fighting for them. He guilts her by accusing her of not wanting him, whereas she wants him she just needs him to support her as a responsible adult in life because she is aware she has enough on her plate already.
I really dislike the scene with Steve and Miranda at the basketball court, I usually skip it when I rewatch 😬 Miranda should've thrown his immature ass out of her beautiful apartment immediately and forever when he threw his aggressive temper tantrum!!
Men, especially men like Steve tend to fully commit to some idea, sell the house and the last piece of underwear, move across country for that idea, expect their women to cheer them in the process, and then drop said idea completely the next day 😂 They also tend to blame their women for their failure, because "she didn't support me enough to succeed". With men like these you can never win. Not all of your partner's dreams are worth pursuing, especially at the cost of your wellbeing, ladies. As for Miranda, yeah, she could have supported Steve a little more, it didn't cost her anything, BUT Steve is a grown man, not an 5-year-old, whose drawing you put up on the fridge even if it's horrendous 😅 There's a huge difference between support and catering.
her friends really hated her for convincing her that she should stay in a shitty relationship just because she's "difficult". that's as good as she's gonna get mentality.
I'm loving your takes on Miranda's and Steve's relationship. Keep on with the good work. It's lovely to watch you and how you perceive "nice acts" from these allegedly "good guys" out there.
Steve really tried to make Miranda a baby mama, thats dirty. If she would have brought up getting married first Steve would have suddenly become concerned with his fiancal situation 😂
I called a domestic abuse help line and the help this old sounding woman gave me was:"Well women just tend to have more emotional responsibility in the relationship."
SATC got on my radar when And Just Like That came out, and I fell hook, line and sinker for Justice for Steve. Watching your videos, I see why Miranda got burnt out. Sure, he mellowed out over 20 years but man he was a piece of work back in the day! Maybe she understandably never got over their relationship’s original issues
You should have a lot more views. I like your humour and I hope you will take the Miranda and Steve analysis all the way through to And just like that where it all comes to a shit show. To be honest, for years I had thought what most people did that they are a cute couple and I had rooted for them (I'd also always liked Steve), but seeing it in a real light, it is just so obvious that they are such a mismatch and I feel sorry for Miranda. It is terribly sad to watch her in the new series where this all falls to pieces and she completely loses herself. I'm not saying that she should have stayed with Robert (the Nick's doctor) because he had some sneakiness about him, but in a way he was the most suitable "man type" for her.
Lol, speaking as someone with a baby, it makes everything much harder. It can for sure bring you and your partner together, but generally only if you were already in a good place. It's more likely than not to break you up if you weren't. Also, sad to say, but, for people who find farting in front of your partner upsetting, having a baby might not be for you.
I honestly think they did the right thing making Steve the way he was , I think it was intentional because there are men out there that does the things Steve did to Miranda. I’m not an “Miranda apologist” bc she did do a lot of wrong things and the first thing was her being with him honestly even giving him a chance. He was quite literally extremely manipulative and the immaturity is quite literally weaponized incompetence.
I’m currently rewatching the series and it’s become apparent that Miranda does not like Steve for real. Seems like a lot of her motives for the progression of their relationship was out of societal fomo on Miranda’s part. She had no business marrying Steve or having Brady. She was miserable and it showed from start to finish As far as Steve: It’s def giving hobosexual on this rewatch. He came outta nowhere asking to move in so soon and then randomly asking to try for a baby?! With an off and on gf?! Like are you unwell? Lol I was team Steve my first watch but I def see they both were a freakin mess. But I do believe he did care for her overall.
I HATE Steve. He dimmed Miranda’s light the whole time they were together. I (woman) make more than my fiancé and that’s never been a problem or insecurity. We split the rent by percentage of our income so I pay more there, but we take turns paying for dates and honestly I think he pays more often than I do because he wants to. I can always rely on him and (unlike Steve) he never pushes me to do something I don’t want to do and supports my career. What’s important in a relationship is that each person feels supported and valued. If Steve couldn’t feel valuable as a partner if he was making less than his partner that (while pathetic) should have been a deal breaker, rather than shoving Miranda into his ideal woman type.
I've just discovered your channel and i love it. I wish you could talk about the movie "He's just not that into you" i feel you could unravel a lot! Kisses ❤
I believe Steve knew exactly what he was doing the entire time. Personally Steve is worse than big in my eyes, he literally manipulated her from the start by using all her insecurities against her. He knew what to say and what to do to make he do what he wanted her to do
Steve and I would need to have a conversation about hygiene before sleeping together again. 🤮 How is he going to care for a baby when he cant wipe properly?!
Not only do men not know how to wipe properly, very few of them actually wash their hands after using bathroom. That's why there's usually no line to men's bathrooms 😌😏
I just watched this episode and made me so mad, he didn’t take her work seriously, he was so disrespectful and manipulative. She really deserved better, it is good she leaves him in AJLT
What's also frustrating is that you can't force yourself to believe something genuinely. If she doesn't believe this half-court shot thing is legit, and she's not presented anything that will convince her otherwise, she can only *pretend* to believe.
I feel like intent is everything and Steve is like a golden retriever. Everything is fun and great and why are you worried so much? He’s a man child yes, but his mother is an alcoholic, that helped mold Steve. These are also the choices we make in people and within ourselves and he’s just too immature to see how he’s hurting others. He’s not a bad person, he’s just an immature person but kind of makes sense we seem to attract to people who are opposites of us.
agree but it wasnt mirandas responsibility to show him that. at their big age. He would just get defensive anyway. hes not a bad person but its not Miranda's problem he was in such a different phase of his life. you cant date potential
I have to admit that when I was young, i was put off by Miranda' s negativity and I though Steve was an angel because he wanted her so much and was sweet to her. Now , I realise that he was a homosexual who had found a successful women to clean his clothes, take care of him while he makes her arrrive late at work became he wants sex in the mornings.
I don't think fully being yourself and doing all the things nearby to each other is a problem Haha it's not a big deal. Once he's seen our kids come out of me, I don't think one being on the toilet, one in the shower is an issue. Maybe we're alone in that but geez we're married, together 10 years, it does not matter 😂 'romance' is not possible 24/7 if you're going to live with them and have a life together. If you're just dating then sure, have that expectation but don't expect a long term relationship to be all romantic and mystery all the time, youre just setting yourself up for disappointment, in my opinion. Im not saying let it all loose and do w/e, just saying it's unsustainable to be demure all the time 😂
I don't think it is a problem if both partners are cool with it. But just expecting your partner to be ok with it is not alright either. Everyone has different boundaries, and they should be respected if you want the relationship to be healthy. And, as someone who has been in a committed relationship for almost 7 years, it's not necessarily about mystery or romance, just personal boundaries and what you feel comfortable with or not.
I wouldn't say it's an issue for everyone, but in my experience having two bathrooms in the condo has also been pretty awesome. We looked at some places with two bedrooms and one bath, but glad we didn't end up with those.
Man watching these videos just always leaves me thinking that Miranda deserved better friends. Better friends would have recognized and validated the fact that Steve was taking advantage of Miranda and manipulating her into getting what he wanted
Literally I was so shocked when the girls were like “it’s been 6 months you should forgive him” wtf!!!!! If my friend got cheated on, I would have his head
Right? Her friends should have been on her side with the whole child thing. At least Charlotte should have said it was way too soon. Like 2 months in and you're talking about a child???
Samantha was the best friend of the group. And Charlotte told her not to date Steve. Although Charlotte didn't want her with Steve bc Miranda was more successful she had a point
I believe that a friend group is important, but it doesn't mean that she wouldn't take back Steve. We'll never know, every decision is up to us.
Throughout my life, I have experienced several situations where friends dated bad boyfriends, and my opinion didn’t matter to them.
And notice the puppy's bed is on her side of the bed.
Remember after Brady was born and Miranda was trying to get away with Carrie and Steve couldn't even watch HIS CHILD for like a weekend???
Just to remind, Steve broke up with Miranda before important party from work… but yeah… miranda is bad one🙄
I will forever HATE that she let him back in. 😫
Yes, this was my immediate thought. How does he support her in her career? We've only seen the time he didn't show up for her because it would be too awkward for him to be the only lower middle class person
He gave her the out and I think if she’d taken it, she would have been happier long term.
Plus she' s often late at work because he insist on having sex and cuddles in the morning!@@stephysteph8558
Steve really doesn't strike me as a chill guy--he comes off as dismissive. When Miranda is worried about something, he never wants to hear about it. He just shuts her down.

"Oh and I know who to blame for that. Saturn... bish"
LOOOOOOOOOOL
I feel so bad for Miranda. 😭😭😭😭

That's B.S., and I'm a guy.
@Kelaiah01 yeah it's heteronormative, frustrating to women and condescending to men
That woman needs a help line herself
I’ve been bingeing your vids for like a week lol
SATC got on my radar when And Just Like That came out, and I fell hook, line and sinker for Justice for Steve. Watching your videos, I see why Miranda got burnt out. Sure, he mellowed out over 20 years but man he was a piece of work back in the day! Maybe she understandably never got over their relationship’s original issues
Your channel gonna fly high, quality of content, humor, light, sound, editing, everything is very pro!

Steve probably getting evicted from that trash apartment is hilarious and sad.
This just made me angry again that Miranda ended with such an immature man baby

Yes, Big gets a bad press, but Steve was worse imo and Aidan wasn't much better.
I hate Steve, he's so annoying 😂
when you started talking about having to earn it the hard way I was already thinking: is saturn in your chart? Cannot stop laughing
Steve and I would need to have a conversation about hygiene before sleeping together again. 🤮 How is he going to care for a baby when he cant wipe properly?!
Not only do men not know how to wipe properly, very few of them actually wash their hands after using bathroom. That's why there's usually no line to men's bathrooms 😌😏

He's sooooo manipulative OMG!
I didn’t mind she got pregnant but I feel like they shouldn’t have gotten together again. They could have set her up with someone better
I just watched this episode and made me so mad, he didn’t take her work seriously, he was so disrespectful and manipulative. She really deserved better, it is good she leaves him in AJLT
But the years are wasted on a loser....
Miranda deserved so much better than his king baby! If she even remotely admired him as a partner she would’ve at least had fun with it.
Man you're so good at this, love it! I kind of want to see you do Gilmore Girls. You analyze "classics" so well!
You're my favorite Capricorn ❤ Thank you for everything you do!
girl I am SAT. love your videos
What's also frustrating is that you can't force yourself to believe something genuinely. If she doesn't believe this half-court shot thing is legit, and she's not presented anything that will convince her otherwise, she can only *pretend* to believe.
You make a similar video about Charlotte´s life!!

Steve wanted a mother.
"Steve comes in and he makes his stain ... No, where am I going with it.. he spices it up" AHAHAHAHA
🤭🤣
Steven was one of the first HOBOSEXUALS , but he took a step further.
i was #teamsteve my whole until I dated one lol!
Girl has anyone ever told you you look like Cher???? Been watching you for ages and just realised!!
She's prettier than Cher.
hahaha the way i laughed at that blaming saturn part :D
Hot Take: Steve is a vulnerable narcissist.
🎯
"Saturn" Yes.
2:40 that 'Saturn, bitch' ❤❤❤❤
Is it the saturn in the 1st house? I know him well.
He's just a man child who needs a mommy wife, she lost nothing..... 🥴
I have to admit that when I was young, i was put off by Miranda' s negativity and I though Steve was an angel because he wanted her so much and was sweet to her.
Now , I realise that he was a homosexual who had found a successful women to clean his clothes, take care of him while he makes her arrrive late at work became he wants sex in the mornings.
I meant HOBOSEXUAL
I missed you queen!
slowly increasing his piss 😂😂
