I disagree that he did a 180 with his behavior. He ran out looking for uke when he heard uke was going on a blind date even before he remembered. I think him remembering that uke was his first love helped him confirm his feeling and gave him the courage to confess. Though I do agree that this story can do without the childhood first love trope.
I would've really liked this without the childhood 1st love plot like if the seme gradually came to like the uke or rather realised he liked the uke but now it feels really abrupt
