This has been bugging me and maybe one of you (or several of you!) can explain this! Marnie and Lewis have a certain relationship, that is fairly obvious to everyone - finding Lewis's "lucky shorts" in Marnie's room strongly hints at the relationship. Both are unmarried, yet for some reason Lewis wants to keep the relationship a secret. WHY?? Pretty sure everyone in town outside of Vincent and Jas (who are probably too young to understand) is aware of the relationship. Gus implies that he knows about it, I'm sure Shane knows about it, someone here referred to it as "the worst secret in Pelican Town", so why does Lewis want the relationship under wraps? Is he afraid someone will use it against him somehow?
Too bad Marnie isn't marriageable. Or at least available once you get her up to eight stars or more. Also too bad Caroline and Robin and Jodi and even Pam aren't either. Farmer Stanley would be more than happy to treat them right and show those Stardew Valley men how to treat their women.
Lewis is a butthole afraid committing to a public fulltime relationship will cut into his MAYORING DUTIES (tm) and afraid someone will try to call him out for dating, and possibly marrying, the only person in the town to own livestock. I can see people (Pierre possibly) leading people against him for "Monopolizing and monetizing milk and eggs against the public"
Where does it say anywhere that their relationship status is Lewis' fault? The fans seem so quick to lay blame and bad mouth him, yet does any evidence exist that it isn't Marnie who's unwilling to commit?
Marnie wants the relationship to become public (6 heart event yo) but Lewis is to afraid of commitment and blames his job.
Good enough, I haven't watched that event through in nearly a year. Probably because I really don't care. If it is in fact Lewis that's holding back their relationship, fine. It's a fictional relationship in a town full of fictional stereotype characters. If it's Stardew canon then so be it.
Yep. Just saw it yesterday. He's a jerk to her in that scene. Then they call you out for watching. Ha!
Yep, he is the reason I kept his shorts and put them in my display at the Summer Fair. I still have them. Maybe they'll go on display again.
I kind of get that impression, but dang it, Marnie deserves better! Marlon's interested in her (based on a festival comment), Marnie should dump the afraid of commitment mayor and go after someone that wants her!
Someone should tell Lewis that mayors are allowed to be in relationships and marry people. He's just kind of odd anyway, though. Marnie deserves better. I wish you could convince them to either stop hiding or break it off.
