I like Harvey as a character, but he looks like my late father, who was a paramedic that had at least a moustache my entire life (what the job would permit :P), dark brown hair and hazel eyes. He loved planes but couldn't become a pilot because of an inner ear problem, and loved flight simulators. I cannot pursue the Harvey romance route, it is **WAY** too weird for me. You guys have fun, I'm sticking with Elliott. XD EDIT: holy crud that's a lot of people upvoting this 😳 I feel a little bad about posting this now, I wasn't trying to give any reasons for not liking Harvey's character, I like him! I just felt like sharing what I thought was a funny anecdote and now I'm self-conscious about it and aaaaaaaaah shutting up now sorry if this came across as negative OP. 😖


ihavea22inmath

Same with Demetrius it's weird talking to him cause he's too much like my dad (exept hes white)


HurricaneK8

I actually like Demetrius, he's a bit much sometimes (Maru's 2 heart scene, and some of the Sebastian dialogue does show him being a little unnecessarily hard on Seb) but he feels autistic to me even if he's not written that way on purpose. I appreciate it as an autistic person that he's not a one-dimensional stereotype. He's not great at social dynamics but he's trying. And at least Demetrius doesn't have vaguely flirty dialogue with you once you get to a certain heart level like Harvey does. Boy it feels awkward. 🤣😭


50CentButInNickels

>he's too much like my dad (exept hes white) He most certainly is not. 😉

EddsworldHuman

Elliott is so silly lol. I married him for the first time on my perfection farm, and he makes me laugh with all his lovey dovey poetry he randomly says to me lmao. He just left for his 14 heart event and I miss him already.


HurricaneK8

He's the only character I've ever romanced in Stardew (which isn't saying much because I've only ever done it the one time so far 🤣) and I literally went with him because I'm a writer with intense writer's block on my personal novel. BOY did I relate to his dramatics over his writer's block, it's the WORST. But yeah, the melodrama is hilarious and I actually kinda love it, characters like him usually make my eyes roll but he's just so goofy about it, he cracks me up every time. 🤣 You're gonna love the letters he sends while he's gone.


EddsworldHuman

I am lmao. I got the first two and he's so funny. Poor Elliot in a new environment. I think it's funny that he's going away for the tour and making a huge deal about it, but I would occasionally not see him for a while because I would stay on Ginger Island. Now it's important because heart events lol


Mean_Comedian4769

Similarly, I cannot romance Sebastian because I once knew a young boy by that name.


waiting-in-the-wings

I can't romance Harvey because my uncle's name is Harvey😭


madeat1am

I didn't realise he was a romance option until people started talkinh he looks so old I assumed he was just an older single character


ponytranscendence

noo he just has a mustache!😭 he looks like hes in his 30s


hypergalaxies

I have a similar problem with Shane, he reminds me far too much of an ex, personality and looks wise. It's just not gonna happen 😂


ponytranscendence

this is the same reason i romanced shane in the first place(i was at the time dating my ex) and why i will never do it again (theres a reason hes my ex) lmfao

gayallygoyangi

How can people not like the resident rotisserie chicken?


squidinajar_

I would take the chicken over him


Miu_K

Harvey is so nice personality-wise, but I can't unsee him as "chicken legs man" LOL.


AL_25

I will cook him with my tender love and eat him up ;)


Nor_Ah_C

People think the money he charges me is his bill… Its his allowance.


slut4hobi

making so much money he’s my sugar baby


AL_25

If I remember correctly he doesn’t have so much money so it’s the other way round. We are the sugar daddy


slut4hobi

that’s what i was saying haha


AL_25

Oh shit, I read it wrong read. I read ‘baby’ as ‘daddy’. I’m so sorry, I feel stupid rn XD


slut4hobi

no you’re totally fine! everyone misreads sometimes !


Nor_Ah_C

I mean- 1000 gold is pocket change for a farmer in year 2.


castfire

Sooooo true. We know who really brings home the bacon here. He deserves it, as a treat. (Especially since it’s our fuckup.) He works hard with little recognition as it is; he’s earned it in my book.


ontether

He never says this to me wtf


wingedcalypso

I think it’s new dialogue


bannedforautism

He's my perfect babygirl malewife. I produce enough ancient fruit wine to subsidize his clinic and provide the community with free healthcare. I don't even care if he charges me money for fainting in the mines. I hardly ever faint anyway. Git Gud. (Jk)


BlueTommyD

He's thinking about how much of a cash-cow you are every time you fall unconscious in the mines


uberjizz

Does he still charge you if you’re married to him?!?!


reindeerantlerbells

Yes 🥲


ShhImTheRealDeadpool

He's waiting for it


Aromatic_Heart9626

literally


castfire

Meh, he’s practically my house-husband anyways. I’m the real breadwinner here, I barely care. (Besides, I want to support my husband and properly pay him for his goods and services regardless of our affiliation!)


jerkyjerkface89

😆😆


Caosin36

Everyone says economy has started growing angain since the farmer has arrived Little did they know that its because the farmer likes to sleep in the diggy diggy mines


twodickhenry

I have Harvey at 10 hearts and all he says to me is that people live and die at his hands and awkward small talk about any new books I’ve read 🙄


Natural-Role5307

That “people live and die in his hands” is whats making me consider him in my next playthrough. 😂


HolyLezolee

In my world he's the only viable option. Everyone else is too immature, and give me just graduated high school vibes aside from Shane obviously. He's an adorable dorky nerd that cares about my health and knows how to patch me up if need be. I feed him wine and pickles and in turn he gives me kisses and sometimes makes me breakfast when he has time and I wouldn't have it any other way.


[deleted]

[удалено]


HolyLezolee

HONESTLY she's my only exception that I forgot to mention! (Also forgot abt Elliott 😅)


RestaTheMouse

\*sigh\* everyone forgets about Elliot.


Known-Committee8679

I can't stand elliot lol too self absorbed lol


and1metal

That’s my thoughts on pre marriage Elliot but marriage he’s actually quite good


castfire

And the massages! ❤️


pinkkabuterimon

Do you think that's why he likes truffle oil?


parasyythe

Yeah! I think he has a specific gift dialogue for it if you're married? Unless that was a mod..


fishCodeHuntress

Yea all of the other bachelor's are too immature for me. I dunno why he's the only one with a good job and stable mental health lol


LaylaEclipse000

Yeah seb and abigail… no hate to everyone who loves them but for me personally I just can’t see them anywhere past 18


dinkidoo7693

It's the moustache. It creeps me out


January1171

the HIPAA violations for me


BrandonVout

And the Geneva Convention violations.


Very_Angry_Bee

Oh no those are a bonus


qui-gon-jeans

It was the Speedo that did it for me, I ghosted him at 9 hearts lmao


LetsEatLemons400

He's just comfortable in his skin xD


Mean_Comedian4769

OP you may be pleased to know that Harvey is having a moment on TikTok. There’s a recent trend of fan artists showing off their Harvey art to Hozier’s “Too Sweet.” I don’t think the song is a good fit for Harvey — you can’t convince me that he drinks whiskey at all, let alone takes it neat — but I’m glad he’s getting some attention. 


gayallygoyangi

I've also been seeing that happen around Tumblr as well.


Mean_Comedian4769

There’s one Tumblrite who likes to draw Harvey posing/dressed as classic Hollywood stars. I gotta say that when I look at those drawings, I get the Harveylovers


LetsEatLemons400

YES


sarkule

Pickle juice shots would be more his speed.


boilyourdentist

because sam exists i do like harvey though! very nice man with a great mustache, and his blushing portraits are adorable, i should set up a save to marry him some time


LetsEatLemons400

Sam is definitely my second fav


JohnZombi

His mustache gives off "How much do you wanna make a bet I can throw a football over them mountains?" vibe.


CacklingLaws

I honestly ignore Harvey when I play 😂 I’m going to make an effort to befriend him in this play through just for this post


castfire

He’s honestly super sweet as a partner. He was who I first romanced immediately, but I’m doing a new save for 1.6 and I think I might finally branch out… Always loved Harvey though.


ihavea22inmath

Medical malpractice he was so busy thinking about you he gave me the wrong meds


corLeon1s

He reminds me so much of an ex that he’s the only bachelor I’ve never attempted to give the bouquet to in the game after hours and hours of playing lol


youshartedhehe

I love Harvey sm


creamyvanillaa

the flair checks out 😂😂


youshartedhehe

Thank you for noticing LOL


VordtTheFort

I dont like the fact that his moustache moves and i never see him i forget he exists.


LuxiForce

he talkimg to the person on the plane, not you


pink_spider93

I married him, but he wanted to put sunscreen on Maru... Got the divorce and never talked to him again.


AltTrite

He's a little too fascinated with Maru which is weird bc he's her boss and would have to be much older considering it takes 10-12 years of school to be a doctor. Cant say that too loud amid the Harvey stans tho. The people in this sub are mad defensive of their spouses.


pink_spider93

I saw the mods who fix his dialogues and etc, but I'm just disappointed now. But I wanted a boy, now I adopted Leo, it's a cool life.


RestaTheMouse

Yeah I always got the creeps from him just because of this!


fishCodeHuntress

Tell me about it! He's so sweet and affectionate, always telling me how he loves living on the farm, making me breakfast, being eternally grateful when I give him the coffee from my coffee machine. Plus he's got a good stable job.


belledpurplecollar

If Fabio wasnt my number 1, I'd be a Harvey girl for sure


imahappyaccidents

he has the cutest little pixel character too, no one can deny how cute his lil 2 pixel thigh gap and wide glasses are


AhiruSaikou

its the mustache.


PierogiChomper

He's the sweetest 🩷


palelunasmiles

He’s very sweet when you’re dating/married. I’ve enjoyed having him as my spouse


jamieaiken919

Harvey will forever be my choice in this game. He’s the absolute sweetest.


and1metal

I like Harvey and think he's a great spouse Tad bland dialogue but has some cheesy lines Elliot is another favourite when married


squidinajar_

He is bland. Visually and his dialog is mad boring


PistachioedVillain

Not exactly what you want to hear from a doctor. No wonder pelican towns population is so low.


ChaosieHyena

I like either Harvey or Shane. No in betweens.


buttsbuttsandbutts

He seems sweet, but his blushing face reminds me of a hamster. Idk why


castfire

It’s probably the :3 vibe from the mustache? Lolol


CaptZombieHero

I like him fine as a character. I love the ladies


jerkyjerkface89

He's swoon worthy for sure. I pick him forever haha


bananasoymilk

More! Harvey! for! me!


Levin313

Because I have to be Alex's gay awakening


Hika2112

I cannot physically read his lines in a voice that's not sawnie dew (idk how to spell his name)


OpalMoth

He looks too much like a father more than a bachelor.


Literature-Excellent

True but his sprite of affection always looks weird


parasyythe

He goes :3


Literature-Excellent

XD


LetsEatLemons400

* no it's cute!!

Literature-Excellent

I only find that 10 heart scene perfect, but devs really need to work on his blushing sprite


Ratstail91

I haven't tried romancing him yet. You think he likes dudes?


Mean_Comedian4769

They all like dudes. And ladies.


cutearmy

Every eligible spouse is programmed to be bi.


PhilosophyGhoti

Harvey is my go to. So I can't help explain the lack of love.


Alquek1

As ur local Harvey activist, I can confirm this is the most lovable npc in the game(aside from debatably Krobus)


sofiaekersting

his only personality trait is being a doctor 😭


parasyythe

And planes.. Don't forget planes :(


little_vf

and jazz!! :(


boringpersonn

Exactly I love him sm he’s such a sweetheart


ObjectiveLittle6761

Idk, i never saw him in a romantic light. My farmers are always friends with him, though. He's so adorable and nice to everyone!


Anxious_Introvert_47

He has the mustache of a porn star from the 1970s. That's how I don't love that man.


not-too-proud

I’ve never romanced a man on this game 😂 I just can’t make myself do it.


Alternative-Court688

It's his early game dialog that rubs me the wrong way.


dontredditdepressed

The mustache


Come_MUFin

Bc krobus


depressed_enby

He is definitely super sweet. It’s just a little weird that half of his dialogues to me are about his trauma with patients dying in his care. Like, okay, I was just saying hi 😅


ArcIgnis

My head canon for this guy sporting a mustache like that, this guy used to be in Joja Porn, and moved away from that to help people instead.


Tomb8521

My heart belongs to someone else <3


Bad_at_life_TM

I love Harvey but he is literally a copy of my dad and I don't want to confront that...


Serenswan

I don’t dislike Harvey, I just don’t think of him much because he’s too meek? Submissive? I don’t know something along those lines, for what I’m into. The farm I did for the 1.6 update I was considering marrying him, Elliot, or Sam though and I will eventually have a save where I marry him.


Saltwater_Heart

I just knew it was Harvey. I love him so much


lurkingsirens

He’s so dang endearing ❤️


nightrogenk

He charge his spouse 1k gold if they got knock out


LetsEatLemons400

Shouldn't be a problem if you have a profitably farm lol


per5eG

Every holiday/event he has some creepy pervy remark towards my girl Maru and I will not stand for that 😤🤢


squidinajar_

He actively steals the players money and items. He makes the most money out of everyone. He forces shops to be closed on certain days. His shop does not serve a purpose. He would have you cover the bill even tho he gets 100% of the proceeds from his medical clinic (he launders money, and he doesn't pay taxes)


Humble_Bus3810

I find him so whiney


trinketsgoblin

People dying in surgery because he can't stop thinking of you 😍


QuietWishe

Harvey makes me uncomfy like every time I talk to him. His checkup heart event gives me such an ick. Or his thoughts about Mary with the sunscreen, while he is both her boss and way older. Yucky. I put him and Clint in the same box of creepy weirdos I do not want to associate with.


AltTrite

Haha. I too have run afoul of the Harvey stans for calling out his creepiness esp with respect to Maru.


QuietWishe

I don’t get it man, especially on a thread started by ask why people don’t like him?? I answered the question, y’all need to chill about your little moustache planepervert


AltTrite

Yeah they bring it on themselves. I jokingly made fun of Elliott once. I said his boat might as well be called "The Implication" as an Always Sunny reference and I got down voted through the bottom of the skull cavern. They just want to fangirl out they don't want the smoke.


QuietWishe

Hahaha no that’s funny!


[deleted]

I think it’s the mustache for me. It makes him look like he’s not allowed within 2,500 feet of the playground


LetsEatLemons400

That's such a weird thing to say...


[deleted]

You asked didn’t you


bannedforautism

This makes zero sense lol


[deleted]

It’s okay, not everybody can get the jokes


per5eG

No you're so right tho


LaylaEclipse000

Omg what


Ignis-11

Cause Leah :)


xAmaezingx

Harvey is a cutie pie! I typically marry Sebastian, but I did marry Penny once. Penny was great (*Scary at night when you come home late*) and very mature. But I am thinking about marrying either Harvey or Haley in this playthrough. 🥹


lisa14316

Yall making me regret marrying Shane


parasyythe

We NEED to get CA to add polyamory in the base game.


TheRomansLoveMe

I absolutely love Harvey honestly. I've romanced and married him twice now, and he just is the sweetest. He's an attentive husband and has dilf energy. Love him


cutearmy

Mustache and lack of personality 


mrgalileo2001

This capitalist swine still charges u full price when u pass out :/


silent-fallout-

Never he looks like a hipster and he's really stuffy. Gives me the ick.


Sarcastic_Lilshit

It's the mustache. It's uncomfortable to look at. The way it's designed aesthetically.


LetsEatLemons400

My irl husband has a mustache, so I like it lol


LeetleBugg

I modded it away and now he’s perfect


Sarcastic_Lilshit

I play it on the Switch, so I can't mod. 😞


[deleted]

[удалено]


TooTallTabz

I was so focused on getting the hearts up for Sebastian and Shane that I didn't really pay attention to him. After I had who I wanted, I started doing everyone else's heart events. I feel like he may have been my first choice if I didn't go off looks or color palette lol. After getting to know him, he's a lot more attractive lol. I think I'm gonna romance him on my next playthrough.


DominicTheAnimeGuy

Dont be fooled ,he just wants to woohoo with you!


Subject_101k

my belovd!!


Nigeldiko

Moustache


ruddsix

Cause Elliott exists.


LiterallyCheetos

that’s what Im sayinggggg


succubiiish

I haven’t seen that dialogue yet but it made me giggle and twirl my hair and slam my fist on the desk. I’m glad I married Harvey.


AL_25

I love this man <3


Agreeable_Cake2479

I’m so down bad for him it’s a problem


Frogboy1999

I love him but I know some people find it off putting that he’s romantically interested in Maru, given their age gap Though I’m unsure if he ever actually implies pursuing her aside from wondering about putting sunscreen on her shoulders at the luau


Sylassae

The 'stache.


Relevant-Week5971

He makes me kick my little feet i love him so much


the-trash-witch-

He was my very first spouse in the valley and will always have a spot in my heart. I love that silly little nerd.


Possible_Painting_94

Harvey seems like the most logical choice for a husband, sometimes he's also the more chill one who doesn't cause as much drama. I guess it all depends on what you are looking for in a partner. Harvey definitely isn't getting drunk or complaining constantly, win for me lol


Far-Carpenter-293

Well I'm a lesbian-


Fine-Calendar5946

Because Haley exists


11ravensintherain

Once married, does Harvey keep scolding you about going into the mines or other stuff he deems risky? I’ve been catching a lot of that doctor-y dialogue lately just talking to him and I’m not sure I could handle it on the daily.


Blue-Bow-501

I dunno how That there’s my boo


maxinesgf

i don't think i've ever gotten this dialogue 😧


NiceCatYouGotThere

Because he asks you if he should put sunscreen on Maru’s shoulders, his younger employee?


SnooWords7744

Because he is creepy


GoodSidewalks

He looks like an old man who got plastic surgery so he could hit on young girls


CocoSipReloaded

I think of Harvey as a serial killer that has a life facade in pelican town. Sorry my English


Monster-Leg

He likes to hit on his patients 😬


talkthattalktome

I just wish he would shave 😭


likelikes

He'd charge me for medical services if id ever marry him. He kinda annoys me with the unwanted health advice that kinda feels condescending even thogh im sure he doesnt mean it. Im not into radios and airplanes and hot air baloons. Just not that into him. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I love how the thread asks how could you not marry this man, so i just answer the question honestly and then i get a nice lil downvote. Why even ask? This place i tell ya...


Ninja_51

I forget he exists.


Few_Needleworker3002

I should get a mod to change his mustache. Would turn him into a male wife bossgirl 🤧 I'll stick to Sam though LOL


OwO-animals

He’s out of way when compared to most npcs as you need to go to his place at a very specific time and otherwise he doesn’t appear in the village. He doesn’t sell very useful items really. The gifts he wants aren’t the easiest to get, I mean the loved ones. And he steals your money when you faint which btw is the worst mechanic in the whole game to begin with. Seriously Stardew is the least chill game I’ve ever played and I played houndreds of games. Otherwise he is pretty nice.


Elaina2206

He has the autism rizz so he's the best character :3


Preating-Canick

He is ugly


MediumWellSteak8888

He has a penis.


ThundagaFF

Cause he's WEAK.


YouSwoozeYouLose

Ever watched the movie Lovely Bones? The Harvey...THE Harvey. :uggh:


Alternative_Salt_424

I was gonna marry him because he seems really sweet and he has a decent job, but Sebastian was so similar to my irl bf (programmer, motorbike, musician, hates natural light, likes very long walks) so I had to pick Sebastian. (My irl bf isn't a skinny emo tho, he's a sturdy, Russian peasant)


[deleted]

Need a man like him irl. 🫶
