I don't know why mangago hates my comments for this so much the link is for "previews" of future chapters if you get what I mean (i've no idea why my comment from before needs approving so im self-censoring just in case)
Y'all, this is slowburn romance. If you don't enjoy slowburn or waiting for the chapters to update, let the chapters build up so you can catch up later.
Listen up - Robin isn't dumb or an idiot, he's simply oblivious. It can be frustrating to some, but it's not inherently a bad thing. He's kind and caring towards anyone around him and treats everyone pretty much equally. He's somewhat of a people pleaser, clearly - I think it's implied he was never the one to confess first to his past girlfriends, so most likely they confessed and he accepted to date them because that's how he's been taught to do. It may be he experienced some other type of attraction towards them (such as aesthetic) but not romantic. I don't think he's ever had a crush on anyone before, and it's really difficult to recognise something you've never felt before.
How do I know? I got my first crush at the age of 18 towards a friend. It took me months to figure out I felt different about them than my other friends, and multiple more months to realise/admit it was a crush. I always thought before that descriptions of romantic feelings were exaggerated, and they were really confusing to figure out when they happened to me. If me, someone who's been an avid reader of romance since childhood, wasn't able to recognise actual romantic feelings, it shouldn't be surprising that someone like Robin wouldn't either. Again, it's really damn difficult to figure out feelings you've never felt before, especially when you experience them in early adulthood.
(Mangago isn't letting me post this so I'm trying to cut it up to see if that helps. Continues in comments.)
