Poe/Finn - Everyone thinks they're boring

Considering their star-crossed lovers epic meet cute and their very different set of cultural norms and upbringing, everyone kind of expects Poe and Finn to be dramatic for some reason.

Their lives are dramatic, sure. But their love life is... normal. Like, if they weren't in the Resistance they'd be that couple with the white picket fence, 2.5 kids, and a dog.

They argue like a normal couple, have very reasonable amounts of PDA, talk about mundane stuff like chores and whose turn it is to polish BB-8. They're not disgustingly cute or swooning into each other's arms or staring at each other like love-struck teenagers. They're functional and in-love and their relationship strengthens them but doesn't define them.

(Basically, watching them be in love is less like the holodrama everyone was hoping for and a lot more like watching really attractive paint dry)
