it's not shit his ex said, he was sexually assaulted, multiple times and gaslit. The other thing is that Seo Eunsung is aware of his trauma and chose to still pursue him, he knows what he signed up for. and he can tell there's progress. like a lot of it, it is 2 steps forward 1 step back, this is realistic progress.
I understand that, but like I said the MC isn't ready to deal with that trauma and the hot/cold thing he's doing is unbelievably draining. If this were rl, I'd just advise them to be platonic friends or leave it all alone.
he is not doing any hot-cold thing, he is taking things slow, he said he doesn't wanna shower together that's all???
Read the subtext and his facial expressions. He's withdrawing emotionally after initiating intimacy. Again, I understand why he's behaving that way.. but I'm also acknowledging that it must be hurtful/confusing to deal with, even when you love the person.
yeah ofc??? he needs to deal with his feelings it's all new and hard for him. he is not playing hard to get or hot and cold, he is processing it and eunsung knws it that's why he is patient.
That's literally the situation I'm describing. The ml has yielded ground to accept the boundary line the MC has drawn. But the MC keeps jumping over the line when he feels like it and withdrawing emotionally whenever he doesn't.
no. then what you say is jot what i said :)
I want eun-seong to move on at this point. I know he's not going to.. but this is just ugghhhh. If this were rl, I'd advise the ml to get the hell outta there and for mc to go to therapy.
Taegun is literally hurting the ml cause of shit his ex said and stuff he refuses to work through
