Opinion on Max's relationship with Randy

The whole relationship, the premise, the chemistry, everything is sooo off. It feels forced and at times cringe. Idk if it's the actor playing Randy, but everytime he comes on screen I skip the scenes. Their storyline was out of place. Caroline and Bobby on the other hand, or even her with Andy, all of Caroline's relationship were handled nicely and their was chemistry, ones where you root for the couple. Randy on the other hand was so forced and just plain stupid. It also made Max's character look bad actually. Like what are you doing, aren't you smarter than this?
