Right it rubs in the wrong way because Nina is still not an adult yet.. If she was and they were 5years apart I think I'd be alright with it ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Yeeessssss! Well said. The age gap is nothing. It's doesn't even really matter anyone ONCE ur an ADULT! ur more exposed to the world and more mature and know more about urself.
I completely agree with the weird sleeping n touching of Nina. She's so young! Not even 19 yet. Even if it's normal in that world n that time period, we should still point it out becuz we don't live in that time and we shouldn't accept for the time we live in.
Lol the p.s.
I don't quite get how someone could have sexual feelings for someone way younger than them though;; Maybe it's because I have younger siblings.
It's so questionable to us with decency (or with younger kins, I have observed) but there are sadly a large amount of creeps who fancy minors. It's not by coincidence too, they really actively fetishize it or make is somewhat like a game. I hope our younger friends take the advice kindly because it's also for their benefit.
True! Sometimes we point these things out because sometimes we have impressionable audience whose views are easily affected by content like this. We aren't being fake wokes or moral police just for the heck of it, I hope they take the comments kindly.
Age gaps really don't bother me as long as it's between two consenting, responsible adults.
EXACTLY. Minors are still not mentally mature, and unable to consent to adults (18 up)
I mean 5 years isn't really much if we're talking about age gaps, but what bothers me is that the sleeping in the same bed thing, the occasional weird touches, & King's declaration that he doesn't wanna share Nina with his bro - these all happened when one is still a minor and one is already an adult. I know Nina's mental age is older but nobody knows that but us the readers.
It's quite uncomfortable to think about, but no hate tho. It's fiction & the setting is back in the days, I understand that.
I still prefer Alex tho lol
P.S. to the the minors, if an adult pursues you, run for the hills. Don't use this piece of fiction as a manual of your potential happily ever after. You're not "mature" for your age, they're just creeps.
