I agree that Sage was unconfortable at first (and all of us do too) but, what I think is missing here is the timeline of events (and I hope someone who played more Sage route can help me with details): MC meets Sage in the woods and tell his feelings for her, she likes it but explains her situation just out of a relationship, after sometime they decide (by her own initiative) that they should have their first date, camping comes after that, where she calls him boyfriend and they agree on those terms.
Basically you are right.

At the end of episode 8, there is a conversation where it can be seen that Sage had some deficits(?) in her previous relationships. Therefore, he also has a problem with expressing his feelings appropriately.

There are many situations in episode 10 where it is clear that they are in a relationship.

since we speaking about what makes a relationship "official" let me share my opinion
it isnt about the boy and girl decided that they will be the only ones for each other, it is about they decided and they "wear" it infront of peoples.
because if they didnt wear it, they have to hide it. so it cant be official, only secret or hidden relationship

Balla -> marrige and teacher -> not official

Maya and Jojo -> they are 2 -> 1 guy + 2 girl relationship isnt accepted in european (and this why in american too) culture/religion -> it can be an unaccepted but official relationship

Jill -> it can be official ofc.

Sage -> it can be official without any problem

other question Balla and Maya+Jojo are more elaborate, so the bond with them feels like more natural or deeper to me
the same can be said about Rio, Quinn, Lily, Nicole

And that's why in a few discussions ago I said that Jill is the "right" path in the game. Also because she presents the game. But I'm sure her path will have something more especial than others (not sure if good).

I don't mean that her path is better or something (but it is - sorry), but that DPC thought about something special to her when he wrote the main plot. And it is a bit counter intuitive because in a game called Being a DIK, Jill's route leans more to CHICK choices.

The only two paths that I can clearly see some plot twist revelation is Jill and Bella's, and Bella's is a bit predictive that will be either her (ex)husband coming back or finding out he's dead and both might affect their relationship to a break up point, with Jill I don't see a pontential break up, but something mind blowing related to Lynette's family that probably will leads us to actually believe that they were meant to be together - destiny.

I don't see anything like it coming for Sage or JM path. We have the Stephen thing that will affect this both paths, but I don't know. I feel Jill's going to be more special - and truthfully speaking, not because I like her more, that comes to personal matters to be, but because how DPC has presented those characters to us.
I think your right, As Jill was the last added, literally at the last second, I feel that Jill is more canon, then the other LI. I like all LI and it's a tie for me between jill and Josy for my most fav character. At the very least it doese feel and look like for DPC Jill is Canon(For Chick Path), since you can only get her for the chick path

Allow me a dalli_x moment, if you please.

It is cannon to go to Thanksgiving with Maya, and tell Neil about the Josy situation early in the game. That being said, bringing one girl home at a time to ease dad into the idea of polyamory, Josy is a good choice. She is more outgoing with people, Neil knows a bit about the history with her, and it's kind of her turn (in the throuple time sharing) anyway. Maya would just be too nervous at this point.

On the other hand, DPC could make us choose and start a downward spiral...

Thoughts?

I was today years old when I found out if you sleep with Riona during the HOTs party instead of Camila, you find out she has crippling OCD, and that she gets "revenge" in Episode 8 only for it to backfire because she has OCD.
