Facing what they think is certain death, Nancy admits she hates The Clash, while Jonathan finally fesses up to not applying to Emmerson. He then pulls out an engagement ring, calling it an \u201cun-proposal\u201d as he asks Nancy not to marry him.<\/p>\n

They still confess their love for each other, and the moment initially feels more romantic than final. <\/p>\n

But Matt<\/strong> told People<\/a> that \u201cthey are broken up,\u201d confirming the scene was meant as a breakup the team had planned for a while.<\/p>\n

Many people have shared posts on X\/Twitter<\/a> sharing their confusion over the scene, admitting they didn\u2019t know it was a break-up until reading the People article.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard to recall when exactly that idea came, but I think us \u2014 and the writers \u2014 all felt that Nancy needed to end up on her own and be independent and have an opportunity to find herself,\u201d Matt<\/strong> added.<\/p>\n

\u201cI mean, how many people wind up with their girlfriend or boyfriend that they met in high school?\u201d he said, acknowledging that Nancy and Jonathan \u201chave a little bit more of a complicated relationship than normal high schoolers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ross<\/strong> summed it up as a \u201ctrauma bond.\u201d<\/p>\n

In real life, Natalia Dyer<\/strong><\/a> and Charlie Heaton<\/strong><\/a> are still together, having gone public in 2017.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what happened to Steve, Max, Dustin, and more characters in volume 2<\/a>.
