“Your partner is not your therapist” i something that should be said more. Both in manhwas and in real life.
A lot of people seem to forget that. Even therapists need therapy. Endorsing other people’s trauma is difficult and can negatively impact your mental health, LITC portrays it perfectly. It’s important for partners to be able to lean on each other, but it doesn’t make them your personal therapists. Doing that will not only worsen your own mental state, but your partner’s as well and damage your relationship.
Perfect point! To sum up, everybody needs therapy.
that piece of shit had it coming for along time. in the midst of everything its nice to see something good like his ass getting beaten.
but don't forget, both cirrus and skyler misbehaved. they couldve done so many things in a better way and dealt with it better but they didnt. they are teenagers, they are learning, they are growing, its normal to make mistakes. they need this time away so they can reflect on their actions and do better in the future.
cirrus reached his breaking point after everything he's been going through, from his dad's physical and verbal abuse to his only support in life and the only ones he liked, his dog and skyler almost or completely got out of his life. he's lost. he has no one but candy now, assuming nothing bad happens. hes suffering the consequences of his own actions and has to learn how to deal with it. he has to learn what love actually is. every form from friendship, to family, to food, to hobbies to romantic love and wtv else.
cirrus has to face his past trauma and ope up to someine about it because he cant keep living in fear and keeping it to himself while the ppl around him dont know. sometimes they might do something that might trigger him and he is no sweet boy, he will be angry, he will snap put at you, he will use your vulnerabilities to fight with you creating wounds that go so deep they might cut through you.
it doesnt matter if your partner is your "fated one" or "soulmate", as long as you have that much trauma it wont work, you'll only hurt each other more. your partner is not your therapist, yes they will be there for you but you cant excpect them to heal everything. you need to get help and take a break for yourself.
