*But I consider this romance "with exceptions" because Mark is still very much so grieving his deceased partner of 10 years

• Does have a two week separation (where Mark asks Eddie not to call him in an effort to convince him they have no future)
- Both celibate

• Mention of homophobic slurs
• Mark's parents kicked him out when they discovered he's gay
• Death of Mark's partner from a heart attack discussed
• Grief 
• Discussion of racism
• Alcoholism
• Hospitalization of supporting character
