While I do wish I had more time to connect with the main character and learn what she was all about, I thought this story was particularly personable if you have ever felt like you didn't know what you wanted or needed in a relationship. Kendricks character is basically navigating relationship through different phases of her life... It's very realistic and we have all been there, some heartbreaks, others are cringeworthy, traumatic, funny, and not just romantically either. She touched upon relationships with friends and family in a very relatable way. Her character grew so that by the end of the season, she finally became a more whole person who was happy with herself.

I do think the idea that a woman needs to have a child in order to be fulfilled in life is still a bit antiquated, but her personal journey was enjoyable and relatable. I would be interested to see if this show would make each season about different women or men going through their love lives in their early adult lives and beyond. It would be able to open up the opportunity to see different perspectives from around the world and show us what different types of love look like.
