[spoilers] Harry and Ruth. The Wonder Years.

[Silktie]

I have a theory based entirely on wishful thinking and eternal optimism, and a little bit on the things NW said in her interview.

Series NW comments on HR relationship in season 9 Spoiler: show

I think they are going to decide to be "work colleagues with benefits", i.e. there'll be some lovin' but no overt commitment to a full-time relationship or any further talk of marriage. I think this because NW said that even though HR realise marriage would never work, they still adore each other and realised there is no use endlessly talking about marriage and hurting themselves further, but that they address the issue in a very grown-up manner. I don't think "grown-up" can be used to describe the sniping we've seen between them to date, which says to me there must be something else ahead.

Right, bring on the cake then.
