i love steve so fucking much man because HE is just so full of love like especially after season 1 hes constantly giving people so much fucking love dude like he puts his all into his relationship with nancy and he may not be doing everything right but hes definitely trying and theres definitely that love there and then my bitch gets broken up with and immediately rediects his love to this sassy child he just met and then to said sassy child's sassier friends and suddenly not even 48 hours after getting broken up with hes now a single father of 3 middle schoolers (dustin lucas and max because he did meet them first) and is slowly adopting the rest of their friend group (rip mike he had no choice in the matter /j) (also may i remind you these are middle schoolers like as lovely as the party is theyre still middle schoolers aka in probably the worst time of your life aka when you're not that lovely either plus severe traumatic experience like shit ain't easy bro /lh)

my guy spends most of his free time looking for romantic love because to him thats probably the only way hes used to love being reciprocated (and ill die on that hill like i see ya "steves parents aren't actually that bad" posts i hear ya i know i know i used to be more indifferent to that train but the info we do have doesn't point to steve being overdramatic about his dad being an asshole and honestly that'll be a post in itself because i get unreasonably upset about it and thats probably something i should reflect on but ANYWAY) hes constantly looking for what he assumes will be reciprocated love and we see that best with robin because after his confession with robin we don't see him being disappointed in the slightest because hes not actually looking for just romance he just wants reciprocated love and THATS why we see him no longer knowing what he wants in s4 because he assumes hes still on the hunt for romance but hes already found the love hes been really needing (the strong as FUCK platonic love from robin) (also not to discount the love the kids give him because their impact in his life is also huge i just mentioned robins because of how at face value he was rejected but he actually got what he was looking for)

anyway yeah, steve my beloved and his story about giving love and being loved in return <3
