Tia is really annoying me right now. There is no good reason for her to reject Perez. Literally no good reason at all. No valid justification. wtf does she mean she can’t cross the line. YOU WANT HIM. HE WANTS YOU. IT’S THAT FUCKING SIMPLE! It always pisses me off when female leads are like this especially when there’s no decent reason why they can’t be together what the fuck. She thinks he and Ramona will be together under what basis??? The past is the past. Live in the present! He obviously likes you! He dgaf about Ramona! He loves you! Not her! Stop being fucking annoying! I know I’m being harsh, but considering how “smart” Florentia thinks she is, she’s being dumb as fuck right now. I’m just gonna drop it till it’s complete bc I’m getting annoyed.

EDIT FOR CLARITY because for some reason people were misunderstanding my comment, and because I can understand a character’s goals while still finding it frustrating!:
I KNOW Tia's main goal is to become family head. I haven't forgotten the plot. My frustration is that she's treating her ambitions and her feelings for Perez like they're mutually exclusive when they don't have to be.
My issues are:
1. They don't have to get married right now to be together. Why is she shutting him out instead of just... being with him while she works toward her goal?!!??
1. The "Empresses can't be family head" rule is changeable. If Perez becomes Emperor (which is the plan), this is literally a problem he could solve. Why is she acting like it's an impossible situation instead of something they could work through together?
2. She won't even communicate with him about it. A truly smart, strategic character would discuss options, not unilaterally decide "we can't be together" based on a rule that isn't set in stone.

I'm not asking her to abandon her goals for romance. I'm asking why she can't pursue BOTH, or at least have an actual conversation about it instead. That's what's frustrating me, not that there's a slow burn, but that the obstacle feels artificial and easily solvable if she'd just TALK to him.
