But love does not automatically empathy. You can love someone and and completely lack empathy. Those are two very different things. There are a lot of people that have been labeled as psychopaths because they would do whatever it takes for them to have the person they love to themselves. Even loving someone can be interpreted in many ways. There’s never a fixed defition to showing love, as cheesy as it sounds
You're only half right in that regard. Psychopaths are capable of understanding empathy just that they cannot process it fully to comprehend the feeling. They can express love just cannot feel love. Meaning Heejae could be totally capable of replicating a person in love to suit Jisuh's needs as psychopaths are inherently manipulative to be chameleons. psychopath and similarly a sociopaths will go to any measure to accomplish a desire of their own. If Heejae wants to continue to control Jisuh as he's done till now, it is totally imaginable he could take on a different approach as expressing "love". Why people accept his confession at face value for being sincere when he has a track record that proves otherwise truly shows people are not familiar with abusive relationships in real life, but feel the need to encourage them here because hey it's fiction excuse. Also as to why do you people keep pushing Jisuh to be with Heejae when Jisuh as only ever suffered from manipulative emotionally abusive SOs like who even condones such a thing even for a fictional character to experience. Like I'm reading this manga and am unbelievably concerned for the people defending Heejae and question their morality.
The thing is, I don't think Heejae is faking his 'love' towards Jisuh. As much as I hate him, again, as i said in the previous comment "After jisuh left Heejae, we actually see him fall to the ground, feeling hurt (sorta like inner monolgue to show that Heejae actually had emotions)". Inner monologue most likely means that someone's feelings are genuine and theyre not faking it. I'm honestly not trying to defend Heejae, because I hate his guts. But i personally think he genuinely loves Jisuh and wants to change. Just my opinion.
"You're only half right in that regard. Psychopaths are capable of understanding empathy just that they cannot process it fully to comprehend the feeling. They can express love just cannot feel love. " sjdhfksdf thats sort of what I mean by "he can't actually love someone". didn't really phrase it right. I know they can be manipulative, like how psychopaths can have families but they cant actually, you know, 'love them like a real family'. but again, my big point was about how theres a panel with just heejae alone, showing his emotions might be genuine.

I don’t understand why some people are even siding with Heejae like did you even understand this whole manhwa??? It’s so fucking creepy how Heejae just literally played along with this whole thing instead of confronting Jisuh about it. He’s a fucking psychopath and obviously gets off on knowing that he has the upper hand. Idk if this is me being really into psychology but something is mentally wrong with him (especially that chapter where he was young and was with his sister comparing playing cards to life! The creepssssss >.<)
