100% I know that some people think that Seth is choosing to be with Henry knowing Henry is confused, which could end in heartbreak. I can see how they’d see that. I think the difference here is that Seth doesn’t have the slightest clue that’s he’s playing a game with rules that are changing every day. Can Seth really be choosing to be in a position of heartbreak when Henry gives every outward sign that Seth can continue? Henry is portrayed so oddly. He’s selfish in how he acts, shows little to no empathy towards others (he doesn’t seem to be able to put himself in anyone else’s shoes with regards to their feelings), has no real (true) self-awareness for how his behavior affects others, yet he’s show as almost naive? Like naive enough to go on a trip with a guy who adores him without feeling like he needs to share that he’s been with Sam? Whew. I don’t know if that’s naivety or willful ignorance...
i agree with your take on henry’s character so much. it’s just so frustrating
i’m not a fan of the author’s usual gimmick of making the love interests playing tug of war with henry in the middle, it’s getting tiresome at this point. what’s the point of dragging everything out when we know henry is in love with sam and vice versa? whatre you putting seth in the picture for? entertainment? bcs i’m sure as hell not entertained lmao. i don’t know what kind of game henry is playing, just bcs seth said its okay if hes on the losing side doesnt mean that henry can do anything he wishes to hurt seth? if youre a person known to set your boundaries and choose the ppl youre hanging out with then why don’t you start with seth? yes seth is an idiot who falls for you but you don’t hv the right to play him even more. henry shouldve been honest and stop giving hope. he has the power to do so. he couldve been honest and said we’re better off staying as friends BEFORE agreeing to travel with seth. you said youre tryna make him happy now but it’ll all be over once you rip his heart to pieces anyway so what’s the point? youre indecisive in everything even when you know that youre in love with sam. you hv your answer already so act on it! and peeps who blamed seth for his feelings are idiots, he can only be blamed to the extend of falling for henry, and it’s not wrong for him to fight for his love, is it? the disclaimer that he said early on is not a ticket for henry to hurt him when they could’ve had a clean break in everything. henry knew of his advances but keeps playing along. personally, i find it cruel of him when he’s gonna reject seth in the end. i wouldn’t blame henry if he could just say no in the beginning but he has NO BALLS to do so! haha! anyways pls don’t feed me the bullshit abt henry still being confused and not knowing what to do. he’s a professor who wrote abt feelings and shit in a book but doesn’t understand his own feelings? ironic. imma keep reading this for seth and at the end of it i WILL demand for seth’s happiness and no one can stop me. he’s the only boi out of the bunch who deserves it. period
