Haha I conflated the Mindys into one actress. This is what I get for trusting my memory.
I also just watched the episode where Blake/Ross have the fight in women’s lounge at the country club and it certainly solidified my belief they shouldn’t have been a long-term couple. Literally everything they argued about remained their problems on loop for years-Blake’s insecurities combined with Ross’s resistance to placate them makes them really incompatible. I feel like in most of their arguments he’s usually right about the larger issue but he goes about it making the argument in a patronizing way that fuels her insecurities. Here she wants Ross not to represent Spaulding in the Roger/Jenna takeover attempt which is too big of an opportunity for him to pass up with his fledgling practice, but he just goes on the offensive that she’s a spoiled child who just doesn’t understand needing a job. He said something about how he shouldn’t be expected to reassure her all the time, but one of the things that drew him to her was discovering her vulnerabilities. He just seemed to think he can be the white knight and it’s cured, and is personally affronted that it’s not.
I haven’t watched any Ross/Vanessa romantically but I can see that being a much more enjoyable dynamic if they’d let them get back together. Vanessa would not take being patronized to.
