I feel like quite a lot of people commenting on this don't know what real life is like... It isn't pretty... It's complicated and ugly and beautiful at the same time. People struggle with living their true lives because there can be extreme consequences for them, so making decisions about how you want to live is not easy... Yes it isn't fair but it is understandable...! I quite love the message here, because nothing comes easy, and life isn't a fairy tale... I mean, don't get me wrong, I love reading fairy tale stories, but let's not forget that these stories show us more truth about the heartbreak there is for both sides of trying to live the life you want... (Oh except the cheating bastard and affair, that's some bullshit)

I never excused any of the behaviour! Saying it's understandable is not an excuse at all.... If you're put in a situation where you have to chose between your family or your partner (as an example), you're going to hurt someone no matter what you chose... And that decision is going to be extremely difficult... choosing who to hurt is not an easy decision at all, and it's understandable, that it takes time and is utter despair to make that choice....

I just want to read about Ian and TJ... not necessarily together... but their stories... I really wish Jo was a better written character.... I don't see why Ian and Jo would actually like each other... To me it's not believable, and not because he's a "good guy".... I don't feel the chemistry or anything really.... The only character with depth is Ian and to some extent TJ... I find myself hoping Jo will go on to meet someone nice in a different story, cause I honestly find him boring to read about....

This is not bad, but it isn't a 9.3 (which is the rating it has, as I'm writing this)
I'm not mad, I spend my time reading this, but it's a low 7 for me and that's mainly because some of the art was nice... It had so much potential to be a great story, but sadly it didn't live up to that at all... but maybe you're not like me at all, in which case, you shouldn't listen to what, I say :)

I can't believe I'm saying this, but there was too much sex..... and too many "I like you"' and "I love you" to the point it felt empty for me.... and yes I know I'm a fucker! Because, I'm thinking this needed some drama.... I'm internally dying, because I can't jump on this fluffy train...and I really want to.... damnit.... Don't get me wrong, this wasn't bad just unsatisfying.... There, I said it.... sorry yaoi Gods...
This is one of those where I'm stuck in-between loving the stories just as they are, even if painful, and desperately wishing that everyone could have had happy endings.... Especially Tokio, even if it shows him moving forward, I just wish he would have gotten it all, but maybe the story wouldn't have been as good as, I think, it is now...
