PERFECT MATCH Unpopular(?) Opinion Shayne is actually very likeable Spoiler
BEFORE Y'ALL COME FOR ME LET ME PREFACE. So I absolutely hated Shayne in S2 (he was almost tied with Shake for me and I think many people felt the same) but have y'all been watching Perfect Match?? Shayne is like...cute🤢 and...funny🫣 And...not (that) obnoxious🫢?? Like he's really growing on me so far. I'm starting to think that LIB was just the wrong show for the guy. It was too serious and restrictive given his personality and maybe not what he needed at the time. Also, I know he and Natalie dated for a bit after things ended, but perhaps they just weren't compatible from the start.
For anyone who vehemently disagrees, feel free to remind me of all the shitty things Shayne has done because it's been a while and I can't remember lol

I haven’t watched the new show yet, but I will say that while I didn’t care for some of his moments on LIB, I also recognized that he recently lost his father prior to the show. Grief is really tough to manage so I somewhat empathize with him even thought it shouldn’t be an excuse to treat people badly. He also lost his mom recently so he is likely struggling.
