i have to say the second story royally pissed me off and makes me wonder about the author's state of mind. The fact that the ML liked the MC back the entire time and literally pretended to be useless, rejected his confession, dated/slept with other people, and emotionally strung along and manipulated his friend for years to see just how far he could gauge his friend's feelings for him knowing fully well his friend had never gotten over him is truly disgusting and sociopathic. And he gets rewarded for it?! Yet somehow this is a romance story? Are you fucking kidding me?
