Right? IDK why she thinks this is the more dignified way, this is pathetic.
Also the ML is straight up emotionally abusive imo. Taking advantage of her trauma to hook up, purposefully making her jealous and then blaming her for it to guilt her into sex, every time she tries to distance herself he says/does something that indicates that he loves her only to go back to the same toxic behavior from before.
you’re right. he’s so abusive, i think the only way to deal with him is to leave and make his sorry ass regret but seeing our doormat FL here, it looks like it’s take at least 20 more chapters before that happens
the FL should just confess properly without holding back and lose whatever pride she thinks she still has. either that or just leave without looking back.
