Green flag?

also, his behaviour in chapter 75 felt manipulative to me. He saw the father/mother, then used an emotional trick he knew would work (EH himself said that if he had his brother in his arms again he wouldn't be able to let go, even though he thinks that's for the best) so that EH acted according to his trauma of separation, not his reason.
TJ is completely disregarding the fact that EH being suicidal doesn't just mean that "he feels worse without his brother" but "his suicidal behavior could harm his brother and that scares him".
Also, that last look in TJ's eyes looked scary, he's being way too agressive - and disrespectful - to the father/mother, constantly accusing him in an insulting way, using his hight physique with menacing postures (which are not empty menaces from the father/mother's point of view since TJ is a gangster).
... all to say, he seems to only focus or care about being an "ally" to EH, infantilises EH and dismisses his caution with his brother, manipulates him to make sure he'll achieve his goal of "helping" him, basically once again - albeit in a more subtle manner - depriving him of his choices...

I agree TJ is not a good guy but you are being so negative about him

Are you not supposed to be negative to a rapist and manipulator...? I'm confused

i know right?? a lot of people i USED to see in the comments, just.. completely disregard how TJ r*ped EH, talking abt how much they shipped them, blah blah blah. im glad this issue is being recognised rn tho, since i remember how genuinely disgusted i was just scrolling down and reading everything ppl would post lol

and + i just.. dont see the appeal of TJ. from my perspective, he just instantly does a 360º and immediately he's all supportive n shit. im hoping the author doesnt make EH go thru another traumatic experience

That's what I am feeling rn I couldn't handle all the shit I wish I could taken a careful look at the tags and the warnings
