Yes, Miles groused a bit about losing his bachelor life with Julian, but Keiko saw that he was pining around, and she cared enough about Miles to arrange for him and Julian to spend some time together again (more than just a pint at the bar after work). She also saw Molly reject Miles - she didn't want to play darts anymore but wouldn't let him color with her either.TBH, I think she was also annoyed by his moping around like a sad dog while she was trying to concentrate on her own work:Keiko: "This cataloging is going to take me another three hours. Why don't you go spend some time with Julian?"Miles: "Yeah, I guess I can spare an hour to play darts with him."Keiko: "Why not make it two?"I get the "TV wife" criticism, and that's a fair point. However, I still just find their relationship to be one of the most genuine, authentic fictional marriages I've seen on TV. Their relationship is neither a fairytale "happily ever after" sort of thing nor a toxic, abusive one. They're just two ordinary people with ordinary foibles, and they love each other enough to want to work through life's challenges together. And so far, at least, they've always come out stronger for it.On a side note: does Keiko ever find out that OG Miles died and she is now living with a version of her husband who came from a few minutes into the future (at the time)?</blockquote>
