Laura. She reminds me of myself, a sassy no-nonsense black woman who speaks her mind, and that's what Steve like about her. She's not an easy weak pushover like Myra.

It's POSSIBLE Steve loved Laura more because she was a more stronger willed woman than Myra, but Steve never really explained WHY he loved Laura so much he would never consider marrying anyone else. Remember the season 2 episode, "Marriage 101," where each student had to name his or her top three choices for a classmate he or she would want to marry, and Steve put down Laura for all three choices LOL!!
I'll say it again, despite Myra's personality flaws, I am pretty sure Steve would not have regretted marrying Myra, if only he could have gotten over his feelings for Laura (like if say, Laura married someone else whom she was truly happy with and Steve finally wants to move on then). Myra's overbearing behavior would have been subverted forever if Steve finally saw Myra as the one. |

You can keep going on and on about Steve and Myra, but it's not going to change my opinion about Steve and Laura. I still prefer Steve and Laura over Steve and Myra, and that's that. End of discussion.

I still say the writers shouldn't have even created the Myra character (or Stefan, for that matter) if Steve and Laura were really always intended to end up together (which I doubt, the writers may have been thinking maybe they wouldn't have Steve get Laura), or at least cut Myra out after season 5's "Nunsense." After "Nunsense," I'm pretty sure Steve knew full well what it's like to be in Laura's shoes, then he could back off and start dating other women (and it COULD have worked that way, as Steve did lust over other women in later seasons - remember the bug collector and Allison of Laura's sorority), only to have them all fail for some reason just like Laura's dates have all failed, then have Steve and Laura date after season 7's "Dream Date."

I think that they should've kept the Myra character, but just don't make her a damn needy, clingy, jealous, obsessive, possessive stalker at the end, but more like a friend after her and Steve broke up and then she went on with her life with another nerd and probably become a bridesmaid in Steve and Laura's wedding. She would be more like how she was in her first appearance as Ted's cousin. She, Maxine, Myrtle, Greta, and KC would be bridesmaids. That's what they should've done, not make her a fatal attraction type of stalker. They took it too far on that one. Stephan, on the other hand, should've NEVER EVER EVER been created in the first place. That was a dumb move. Steve was perfect just the way he is. Laura should've been working with Steve's as he was with a little improvement in his appearance. He will still be a nerd, and he will still love cheese and polka. This should've been done earlier like Season 6 or 7, not Season 9 when the show was damn near over. Bad timing. Very bad timing.
The writers suck. Whoever wrote the episodes on Family Matters should've been fired. They do things ass backwards. There were VERY VERY VERY few evidence of Steve and Laura subliminally having some feelings for each other, on Season 7, but it wasn't as BLATANT as Season 9. They should've start dating soon after Dream Date. Season 8 would be their courtship and engagement annoucement. Season 9 would've been their preparation for the wedding, and then the wedding day. That will be the true last season. They did the same thing with Fletcher and Estelle. In one episode, Fletcher and Estelle got engaged, and then the next episode, they got married. WTF??? That's too fast!!!!! Poor writing. |

They should have had Myra and Steve just be friends after "Nunsense," if Myra were to remain on the show. It was just plain wrong of Steve to pretend to want to move on with her by going steady with her when he was clearly NOT over Laura later on. That could also serve as a backup plan, in case the writers decided Laura doesn't end up with Steve, then Steve would date Myra again in the last season and become engaged to her, assuming Myra hasn't moved on herself by then. Poor Steve though, if both Myra AND Laura found someone else.

That could happen, but I always thought that it was always the writers' intention to put Steve and Laura together even with Myra in the picture. They should've done it correctly though without hurting Myra. This is my opinion of what they should've done. I believe that if Steve and Laura started dating after the episode of Dream Date, and they fall in love, and Steve broke up with Myra and Laura broke up with Curtis, I don't think that Myra will turn into the psycho, possessive, jealous, fatal attraction type. Mind you, she wasn't as jealous and possessive on Season 7 and 8 as she was on Seasons 5 and 9. She calmed down in those two seasons. In these seasons, Myra and Laura were actually friends, and I don't think that she was mad at Steve and Laura for going to the senior prom together. So if Steve broke up with Myra after the Dream Date episode, it wouldn't be bittersweet, because Steve really did care about Myra, so she wouldn't be possessive as she was in Seasons 5 and 9. It was bad timing, VERY bad timing. And then, Myra would've moved on to somebody else in Season 8 and probably be engaged to that person in Season 9, and Myra will attend the wedding with that new man, and she would probably be the bridesmaid. That's how it should've went down.
You know that I stand by Steve and Laura 100%, BUT it was kind of rushed. The reason I said that is because they should've gotten Steve and Laura together SOONER. I'm not talking about in Seasons 1-4, but Seasons 6-8 maximum when Myra was a little calm and when Laura wasn't as shallow. That's PERFECT timing. Why do they wait until the last damn minute to get Steve and Laura together and have Myra turn into a psychotic, possessive evil person in the last season? I think that they should have both Laura AND Myra in better positions in the last Season. They waited until the last season to pair Steve and Laura up. It was a little forced. Again, I always knew that they intend Steve and Laura to pair up romantically before the last season, but if they would've handle it sooner and better, then it wouldn't looked so rushed. Just like that Estelle and Fletcher engagement and wedding situation. It's the same scenario. |

I still say Steve shouldn't have led Myra on in the sixth season though. If Steve REALLY cared about Myra and wanted her to be happy, he wouldn't have held on to her for four years until Laura loved him back, when he knew full well he'd dump her in a second the instant Laura shows attraction to him. Steve pretty much used Myra, which again, may not have been so bad when he did it in the fifth season, since Myra did agree to his terms, but Myra clearly wasn't happy with those terms anymore when she demanded he go steady with her. He should have just told Myra to be friends so that she's free to date others and find someone who truly loves her for who she is and not just her nerdy interests.
