No, they're not technically a couple but we're rooting for them so we're putting this one out into the universe. Fez may be a drug dealer and Lexi may be a goody-two shoes, but it's not like that's a secret. Plus, there's no harm in having a little fun. Maybe he'll even help Lexi loosen up a bit.
Kat may not be in love with Ethan, but we haven't seen him hit or yell at her like some other couples in this series. This relationship is just a fun and frivolous romance, as it should be for these high schoolers.
There's no denying that Jules and Elliot are in the wrong for lying to Rue about their hookup. But in the grand scheme of things, these two seem like a better match than Rue and Jules, who has admitted that she's more comfortable with men than women. It also seems like Jules likes the idea of being with Rue more than she actually likes her. If Elliot is able to physically and emotionally satisfy Jules, then why keep them apart?
While they aren't technically together, don't let Maddy hear that. Since they've gone their separate ways, Maddy has realized she loves Nate in her own unique way and she's started to think that he could be the only man for her. With Nate, it's totally unclear how he feels since his judgement is shrouded by the fact that Maddy has his dad's sex tape. They're matched in their will to protect each other, with Nate even sending a man that Maddy claims raped her to the hospital.
The only positive thing about this pairing is that they're aware how toxic they are, and it seems like that's healthier than lying to yourself.
Yes, Rules is a cute nickname but it's just not going to work for these two. In theory, they could've been good for each other but the reality is that they aren't a good match. Between Rue hiding her drug abuse and Jules' insecurities, as well as her obvious attraction to Elliot, it's clear that this relationship is destined to end.
Cassie seems to think that she and Nate are a better match than him and Maddy, but clearly, she needs a reality check. And though there have been many red flags throughout their so-called relationship, the biggest one is that he was willing to drink and drive with her in the car. That's not love, that's just reckless.
