The first part of Stranger Things 4 is out and already breaking records. The group of adults, young adults, and kids are all separate initially. So the first part of the new season saw them uniting against a new threat that is killing the teenagers of Hawkins. It is full of drama, action, and new adventures. But still, with all these things happening at the same time, fans focussed on the obvious tension between Lucas and Max. They were an item at the end of the last season but this new season sees Lucas trying to talk to Max, who has recently broken up with him. So here is good news for all the fans who ship them- we believe we have figured out why Max broke up with Lucas.
First introduced in volume 2, Sadie Sink’s Max became the newest addition to the kids’ group of Stranger Things. The second season saw her becoming close friends with everyone, especially Eleven, who became her best friend. Furthermore, Lucas developed a crush on Max and decided to act on it. Both of them soon became a thing, way before El and Mike reached that stage. They shared their first kiss at the Snowball Dance of Volume 2, and their shippers got what they wanted. But the following season saw them go through some up and downs, which troubled fans. But the last episode saw them return to their girlfriend-boyfriend stage. Then why are they broken up in the fourth volume? What would have happened in the time between the two seasons that led to this? And most important of them all is it permanent?!
MAX AND LUCAS RELATIONSHIP IN STRANGER THINGS 4
The first episode of the new season saw her going through the trauma of losing Billy again and again. She seems to be having trouble sleeping at night, then having nightmares and poor concentration at school. And all this time, Lucas seems to be struggling to try to talk to her. But he is confused as to how to reach out to her and start a conversation. Meanwhile, Max realizes that her nightmares were the first stage of Vecna’s Curse. And when she is in the final stage, it is Lucas who saves her by making her listen to her favorite song. And he was the only one who knew, so there has to be something horrible that happened to Max during the six months between volumes 3 & 4 that she decided to break up with Lucas.
