I don't think what they have is love based on what I see so far. I know some might say, right person wrong time but I genuinely think that they are not good for each other and that being together would only cause pain and heartbreak for both of them.
To me love is acceptance. It is to show your most ugly side to someone, to lay yourself bare before someone and know that this person will love you despite. It is the root of trust, of friendship, and your relationship with yourself. Love cannot grow if you don't create an environment for it to do so. Mistrust was rooted so deep in Skylar and Cirrus souls and darkness had become so much of a comfort that sometimes, people are just too numb to care. Their situation could be described by the quote "When you are not fed love on a silver spoon, you learn to lick it off knives." They show love the only way they know of. And their effort prove futile in the end.
The first strike of the reason I think they don't love each other is how aggressive and toxic they are when are faced with conflicts or miscommunication. They manipulate each other, lie through their teeth, fist collide and sometimes they would kiss. Love doesn't hurt, whoever told you that it has to is stupid. It doesn't need to be easy either. Communication and trust are a two-way bridge that needs both parties to address the problem that they're both facing. Instead, Skylar and Circus prefer to cut off the bridge. To not address the elephant in the room. Both are too afraid to put everything on the table, to be judged by someone, to be seen. They crave love but are too afraid to take a leap of faith for it. They also have their own issues and traumas relating to parental figures in their life and the way they view themselves. This further proves that they both are not ready for love. You cannot start a relationship from trauma bonding, you just can't. They cannot continue and stare at each other wound till the epilogue yk.
The second strike is their age. Ummm hello?? They both are high schoolers. They are growing, still, a bunch of teenager figuring out their shit, they have a whole life ahead of them, I feel like they are so stuck at the moment sometimes and forgot that world is so much bigger than you think. They have exams, don't they? What do they want to do after this? Which university to go to? What are they gonna study? To take the time to actually sit down and think about their next step as an individual would do them some good. They are both, especially Cirrus, almost emotionally dependent on each other. The recent break-up proves my points. I'm starting to get lazy Hmmm.
To sum up! They are better off without each other. And if I have to see another face-slapping chapter I'll jump. It's not that they are incapable of love, and what Skylar said "How can you love when you never experience it" is cold and stupid. Everyone can love. They just show it differently, some might be nonconventional but they both try, to love each other in the way they know. And I think that's super sweet but... I don't think it'll last. As cold as this might sound I think they are happier without each other.
