Ugh, I am so sorry for neglecting this comment for so long. My email well right out of my head on that bit.

ITA. I do believe that Ryan/Taylor was a desperate gambit at first, but 1) Autumn and Ben had chemistry like a meth lab, and 2) the writers responded and rose to the occasion with a seriousness. I full-stop adored the message of their ultimate relationship: you can be damaged, but this doesn't stop you from finding your potential Someone. (I also loved how light-heartedly and honestly the show treated Ryan and Taylor going off and growing up with the hope of finding each other again, given how somberly it treated previous couples.)
