Clint as a marriage candidate…

So, I’ve been thinking about this for a while, but for 1.7 clint will be added as a marriage candidate, but his character for marriage just feels weird. He’s 40, and already has a confirmed attraction towards Emily, so it just feels weird. I think I would prefer a new character much over marriageable Clint, but maybe redesign of his story would work for him? Idk

I'm thinking that a story that turns him romanceable has him getting over his baby crush on Emily and trying to learn from his missteps, and maybe managing an awkward but much less creepy courtship of the farmer. But yeah, he needs a lot of growth and a much bigger arc to be successful.

Sandy's issues are mostly external (How to court someone who is almost entirely on another map you can often be late to reach?) But she's a self-confident, self-employed character, her character arc doesn't so far need her to overcome her internal self.

It is quite interesting that the 2 new marriageable candidates are both interested in Emily, which could create a rather interesting dynamic should ConcernedApe choose to lean into that. IMO a logical solution to this is Shane steals Clint's tween crush attention away from Emily, and Sandy finally realizes that being passive will never work. She observes how Clint never did anything to actually try having a relationship with Emily while Shane finally took control of his emotions and life to make his play for Clint's affections.

Sandy needs to do the same with Emily or forever remain just friends.

I can see where you're coming from with that. Personally, I am pretty exited to see what ConcernedApe does with Clint's story. However im worried that the 'trap' Shane fell into happens with Clint. (Having actual character development then ultimately having that mostly reverend in marriage)

I think that the story will mostly go about Clint realising that Emily just likes him as a friend. Them maybe the farmer can come in an give a hand in overcoming that. Also help him be a bit more confident, because I think most of his creepy actions are just lack of confidence (he is nothing like the farmer, professional creep hiding everywhere listening to the gossip).
Plus that way Emily is free for me Muahahahahahah (sorry sometimes I go crazy)
