Miscommunication after miscommunication, they (specially Max) kept running from each other, never hearing the other out, literally 4 or 5 times Max heard/saw/read something, took it out of context, didnt let Sadie explain herself and ran away, every time they made up they just had sex and barely spoke about the conflict. Oh, and also the cliché where one of them gets sent a link with a photo or something that leaves the other in a bad light from an anonymous source with an ominous "X is not who you think you are". So, complete bullshit all around.
In a less incensed note, the fake dating is barely there, I was reading a pdf that had 700+ pages so at first I thought "oh, the show part is just the very beginning, they will develop their relationship more" but I was WRONG, we truly were supposed to believe these two had chemistry and were falling in love with just a couple of interactions where most of the time they were arguing and the rest they were just singing, and then there's a time jump where they haven't seen much less spoken to each other in a year and when they meet again they're "breathless" and "speechless" and I just didn't feel it, I didn't care for their romance or anything, if only just once I felt excited about them being together, but after the third miscommunication I was just done, it was extremely repetitive and it was supposed to make you believe all the odds where against them but truly they just didn't speak to each other
