I feel bad for Jo. People who think Ian is cheating on Jo aren't invalid for thinking so. They were looking like they were locked in then this. Its kinda manipulative even when you think about it. Everytime Jo and Ian's bodies connected, the conversations they had Jo felt that he was getting closer to Ian. Who wouldn't think so? But now he's being ignored and avoided then Ian links up with tj and in quite literally no time they kissing and he's getting head. If Jo found out about this wouldn't he feel betrayed? Wouldn't it mean all that time they've spent together couldn't even dissuade Ian from tj cz they very quickly fell into old habits. Tj and Ian missed each other and I don't think there's any other explanation that isn't deductive or delusional.

Tj and Ian at this point might as well just try to be together properly without all the bs cz it's clear none of them wants to let go of the other. Ian was genuinely worried where tj was and didn't like hearing that tj left to give him a chance to choose the normal life he wants. But then tj finds out Ian out here killing people and shit and at this point Ian just dragged himself back to the life he wanted to escape. Tj felt he needed to find him after antagonizing another gang. Nietzsche said when you stare into the abyss the abyss will stare back. This really represents Ian's character. Tj and the gangsta life are too much a part of him to just think he can cosplay being normal when he still partake in gangsta activities. I think this could be a way forward for tj and Ian. I think Ian has a fear of being left behind by tj even if he thinks he shouldn't be with him. I think he needs to be honest with himself when it comes to his feelings for tj. Like bro stop thinking too much and just ask yourself why you can't ever resist this guy.

As much as I think what Ian is doing is pseudo cheating I also think he doesn't owe Jo anything. This is why doing relationship shits when you've not labelled your relationship is just toxic. I want Jo to let go of Ian without expecting Ian to reject him cz given how Ian is he'll just make him a forever substitute. ATP this point he's just miserable pining for someone who doesn't put his feelings and even his character into consideration when he does shit.

Please stop slut shaming Ian. He's not a slut for wanting who he wants. This was never going to be an easy ride so if you don't like it just get off.
