I’m finding these characters insufferable still. Josh is so negative, and I don’t know why I’m supposed to think he is so great. I hate how contrived this conflict is. It’s annoying that Kristen isn’t just being honest with him. It’s just shy of a miscommunication trope, and it’s not working for me.

As always Abby creates complex three dimensional characters out the gate, but this one has started a little unlikeable to me. Had a false start of it a couple days ago because it was such a negative opening tone.
The emphasis on the machismo to make a favorable comparisons to the deployed boy friend is heavy handed and is a little off putting already.
We’ll see how it shakes out; might be a rare miss for me.
