Who is Big Mac with?

[Ginger Ale 723]

Well according to me, Big Macintosh is one big susceptible lover. He is interested in more than one mares. I mean, Cheerilee (although they had love potion, they still blush to each other when they come across), Marble Pie and now Sugar Belle? What is going on? XD. Can someone officially tell me what is going on? I mean they explained Cheerilee but what about Marble Pie? They were not even looking at each other friendly. How fast Big Mac forgot Marble Pie to have a crush on Sugar Belle?

He sure is a susceptible lover! And I outta know! 'Cause I spend a night with the quiet Hunk! 

[NightmareLuna800 1,383]

My best guess. The writers saw Sugar Belle, wanted a crush for Big Mac, and put them together. And just pretty much entirely dropped anything to with Cheerilee and Marble. But yeah, he's with Sugar Belle from what I get right now.

Big Mac with Marble Pie was just a moment when they first met and of course it would be awkward, hence the blushing and shyness from both the of them. They were never really in "love" or anything in that nature because it was just a first meeting. Basically since they're cousins too, that would be consider as incest, so I would put that down with the intent of not putting Big Mac with Marble Pie together. With Sugar Belle though, she needed some apples for her bakery and who not better to call than Sweet Apple Acres. Big Mac saw the call and provided her with bountiful apples and in return, Big Mac develops a liking for her and so does she. The intention was to clarify in whom Big Mac would be with and clearly after the potion incident with Ms. Cheerilee, the writers saw to change Big Mac's love interest into a genuine love interest with Sugar Belle instead.

I haven't seen the episode, but I have heard he is now with Sugar Belle, though I also heard that his interactions with her in that episode were very creepy, to the point of stalker levels. If he is officially with her, then I guess it is cool that he is with a character that was nearly a background pony in terms of appearances. Mixes things up a bit and makes it a bit less predictable.

[cmarston1 5,959]

He is now dating Sugar Belle, which is something I am okay with as I hate MarbleMac and find Marble Pie to be unbelievably overrated and boring.

[CT-1138 3,182]

Cheerilee seemed to be more of a passing fling after the effects of the love potion wore off. I doubt Big Mac would ever be with Marble. There's always the possibility of them being related, and even though the relation is very far apart, it's been established that they're long lost cousins so I doubt the situation would ever move past friendship. Sugar Belle seems to be Big Macs girlfriend for right now.

[ManaMinori 4,145]

If "hard to say anything" says Sugar Belle is Big Mac's first crush, then she's his first crush. Its canon. He was never attracted to Marble Pie, and the thing with Cherilee was forced by a love potion, and not really the start of anything. I would think if the show says somepony is BM's first crush, there's no really no other way to interpret it, and its self explanatory that no one else before this "first crush" matters, because no romantic feelings were involved.

 

but I guess not.

[Star Petal 215]

He never dated Cherilee,  they were just good friends. Marble pie was just a temporary crush. That answer the question? This is the first actual "girlfriend" he has ever had. Or rather the first official one. So, we can conclude that he was never "with" the other two to begin with.

Eh, there was only one moment I'd really call creepy. It had some great jokes and the moral about romance was a good one for the target audience. I'd give it a 7/10, nothing special, but definitely worth the watch.

well obviously because the part with Marble Pie was just the fandom overreacting on 2 shy personalities meeting.

what if you're shy and is suddenly put up with someone you don't know?

yes, that would be awkward.

That's a huge overstatement about their interactions during Hearthbreakers.

Although you're right in your conclusions, the show itself points out that Sugar Belle is his first actual CRUSH, which means that not only did Big Mac was never with another mare, but he was never attracted to one before, of course assuming that the love poison doesn't count. 

[Foxy Socks 2,599]

He never had anything for Cheerilee, as that was forced by a love potion, and besides a few cute scenes with Marble, nothing major implied he liked her that much. Sugar Belle and he were obviously in love with each other, so unless they change that, they are together for the time being.

[Hierok 11,831]

That with Marple could be explained with that they are both shy and were in an awkward situation. 

[Lulaypp 2,555]

Though I never ship them, I always believe that Marble Pie had a thing for Big Mac after that bit in Best Gift Ever. It was during the One More Day song where Big Mac have interacting romantically (it was either snuggling, rubbing noses or kissing) with Sugar Belle and there was Marble in the background with a hurt expression. Big Mac had feelings for her is hard to tell.

[Jesse Terrence 2,968]

Canonically married to Sugar Belle, so all ships were sunk.

[The Kaeya Simp 13,988]

Until the marriage of Big Mac and Sugar Belle, I would have thought that Big Mac was with Cheerilee, Marble Pie, *and* Sugar Belle, at once

[Cash In 22,232]

I'm pretty sure he's with Sugar Belle. The guy got hitched and everything.
