This is Ian story. He is the mc. Like do Ian haters not comprehend that? You're reading a love triangle not some simple straight up romance. It's always the "They're grown ass man" Turama don't go away with aging? Especially not when you spend two decades going through it and he's still going through it. He is still actively fighting depression and his drug addiction until these days. Some of you just can't handle love triangle because the moment you read one, you immediately jump into taking side with one of the ML without even following the story or trying to understand the complex situation and relationship that the characters have. It not about them not acting their age. It's about you not being able to handle any sort of conflict or realism in a story especially when the mc doesn't act according to your expectations of what you deem is your standards and morals because you already have a biased opinion for the one you're rooting for. Your whining is not gonna change anything about Jo liking Ian. That is the characters choice and the author choice for their character.
