Being with Paxton also made Devi realise that things don’t necessarily get better just because you’re in the romantic relationship of your dreams. She challenged him and pushed him to be his best self, and Devi, who can be a little hot-headed and impulsive, tempered those instincts with Paxton. Relationships, be it friendship or romantic, are all about growth.ĭevi and Paxton got together in a way that made sense. Never Have I Ever doesn’t look at relationships like that.
