When I first started watching Brandon and Mary , I looked at them as a hopeless young couple that could maybe succeed because Steven and Olga where also a train wreck at the start . However though Steven and Olga seemed like they’d have no chance with the constant fighting etc , they put in the work to make their relationship work and their family . They’re in such a better place now ! The more I consume of Brandon and Mary content , I do not see the same hope for them because they don’t seem to understand the concept of love isn’t enough.
