ok i feel like her behaviour this chapter was kinda shitty tho... They only just recently ...

Huh?? I get that it's difficult for him to open up but to say "What would it actually change if I told you?" to your own girlfriend, who's just genuinely concerned and wants to help you, is pretty shitty lol Anyone in her position would be upset with that sort of response, it's basically your own partner disregarding you and doesn't think of your support as something important. Just because he's going through something traumatic, doesn't mean he gets to talk to her like that.- it's disrespectful. FL did right for speaking up, if anything, I'm happy that she did because we rarely ever see her stand up for herself.


I'm glad that he clarified what he meant, but again, she was well in her rights to be upset. Keep in mind, he hasn't been that great to her from the start either when he kept giving her mixed signals and stringing her along. Even when they're finally in a relationship, it still feels like he's stringing her along. Either way, this is good progress, cause FL isn't being a doormat for him anymore & ML is finally starting to open up.

yea thats shitty to say but literally 1 second after he immediately explained that he meant he doesnt want her to feel burdened by it so no i dont think that sentence was that big of a deal when someone explains themself immediately after...

How often in life does someone just immediately open up abt some traumatic to a new lover? And when youve gotten harrassed with said trauma just moments before you cant always say it in the "nicest way", even though he was IMO saying it in a normal way

Yeah, he explained after but that obviously hurt her...look at the way the panels are drawn - it immediately got dark, her expression looks hurt and there's even one panel that's just black, showing a pause. Just because, you don't think something like that is hurtful or a big deal, doesn't mean that it isn't. Her inner thoughts are also shown, "We're in a relationship. How am I supposed to just ignore this?...Is he being for real right now? He expects me not to care?" This is obviously a big deal to her, it's not fair to dismiss her feelings of this.

Opening up isn't the issue, it's the way, he immediately dismisses her. Right from the start of this manhwa, we've seen FL chase ML, constantly trying to understand his feelings and thoughts but he on the other hand, pushes her away. It's a constant pull and push with ML always doing the pushing. Her pushes her once again, when she tries to offer her support and is asking for him to lean on her for once. Yes, he says he doesn't want her to be burdened by it but he's also still widely pushing her away and once again, dismissing her. There's only so much the FL can be a pushover and a doormat for him. You can't always just expect her to stand and stay quiet everytime he's being dismissive.

They may be new lovers but they're also childhood friends. They have history there and even FL points out that ML wasn't always like this, that he'd been able to share his feelings in the past so why have things between them changed so much? She's his girlfriend and yet, feels redundant in his life. FL so desperately wants to understand him but isn't able to do so, with him being closed off and pushing her. If she doesn't speak up about this now and put her foot down, their relationship will only ever be status quo - surface level. Sure, the FL could've reacted differently but you can say the same thing about ML. If you can understand ML's reluctance to opening up due to his trauma, you can also have the space to understand FL's position.

idk initially i thought same as you, she could've reacted better. but then reading this as a whole & remembering how he's treated her, yeah i get why she's fed up with his ass also idk if i can take another season of her just being a pushover so id rather her be this harsh w him than just waiting & begging for his ass to open up lmao
