Never Have I Ever Season 2: what are your thoughts??
I just finished watching the latest season of the Netflix series Never Have I Ever. I really liked the portrayal of the Indian American protagonist Devi Viswakumar in the series. It is always exciting to see more diverse stories with people of various races at their centre. Though I really liked Paxton and Ben alike, Ben seemed a much more compatible boyfriend for Devi. I also missed Devi's cousin Kamala's love story in the season. It feels like Prasant's ideas don't really corelate with those of Kamala's, though they look perfect together. I am also looking forward to seeing what happens between Devi's mom and Dr. Jackson in the next season.
These are my thoughts. What do you think??
Team Ben or Paxton??
Would love to hear from all of you.

(SPOILERS FOR SEASON 2 FINALE)
For anyone who isn't done with it.
Paxton likes her, they could totally work if he wasn't so full of himself, but he still thinks she's beneath him. That look he gave his friends at the dance. All guilty and embarrassed. Like, no. Just no.
I kinda want Kamala to wind up with Devi's teacher, and I look forward to whatever happens with Nalini and Dr. Jackson. Very interesting development.
I want season 3 now. I hate speeding through the whole season and then having to wait forever!
What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

Devi is a full definition of a teenager trying to fit in and not wanting to look too desperate as well but all ger thoughts end you sounding wrong to me. For example; when she decided to have two boyfriends, I mean, how? Even tho she liked Ben more before, he seem to be too invested in Aneesa than in her and alwasy kept rubbing her mistake in her face. Paxton may have been a douche before but still wouldn't have come out of his shell if Devi didn't push him
He would have probably still be thinking he's better.
Kamala's love story is going in the wrong direction for me
She should have asked to speak privately to Prasant instead of running cause he really seems more understanding
I'm also looking forward to see a little progress with Dr Jackson and Nalini

I don't know. I guess I just think Ben acted the way he did because he thought Devi wasn't interested. I mean, his reaction when he learned that wasn't true shows that he didn't think he had a chance.
As for Paxton...
If he could get over himself, he could be awesome. But even his sister knows he's being a ridiculously immature jerk.
I honestly think (assuming we get a third season!) that we'll see how badly Paxton is going to mess things up.
That said, I do think he will improve, and I don't know (or have much of a preference) for who she winds up with at the end. Just that, right now, Paxton is being a jerk, and Ben would be the smarter choice (atm).

As for Kamala, I think that the moment her fiance told her to 'look down, and chin up" instead of standing up for herself, she started having second thoughts. I mean, the guy is not wrong, but maybe Kamala is looking for something else in a partner. I feel like she will end up in some kind of a relationship with Devi's English teacher.
I feel a bit bad about Dr. Viswakumar and Dr. Jackson though.
