The Office: Michael proposing *Season 7 Spoilers*

"That was the one I was most worried about."

Honestly, I was never a fan of Holly.

Jan was the antithesis of Michael's personality. While you never felt like they were meant for each other because she never really accepted Michael for who he was, there was a sense that she brought balance to the relationship.

Holly and Michael being two, big personalities had that feel that they would destroy the world together.

What I really loved about Michael Proposing and the several episodes leading to his departure, is that Michael exhibits behavior that makes you question how he even manages to make it on his own. It's really quite scary when you see it.

From Classy Christmas Michael is an insufferable jerk, he can't even navigate Scranton on foot by himself, and doesn't understand that gasoline is explosive. But leading up to this we see him learn to accept constructive criticism (Threat Level Midnight), accept that Todd Packer was a jerk and not a good person (Todd Packer), and he even managed to not be self centered and not make last day all about himself (Goodbye Michael).

I don't know if it was intentional, but I think we were supposed to see Michael as this guy that had he left Scranton and the office, he probably wouldn't be alright. But with these several episodes we see Michael capture the love he was always looking for, and transform into a man that we as the audience feel comfortable knowing that this man is going to be okay now.
