When I first read this I thought it had a lot of potential, but what made it so great was the first couple. It’s a shame their story ended as it did, and from my understanding that’s how their relationship will always end.
Now we have this second couple who could be together forever but the seme is so unlikable I can’t even read their story. I’m just waiting for the next couple but honestly I just wish we could go back to the first one. I don’t understand why the author decided to focus on the second couple so much...

I know what you mean.. The first couple ended so fast, it was almost out of nowhere. I have hope that things will improve for the second couple, like the uke finally getting peace and dieing.
I don't really like the seme in the second couple all that much either, but maybe he'll change? I don't know, but i'll keep reading.
I just want the poor uke to get away from that awful demon! (/TДT)/

I don’t understand profs. Motivation. I’m assuming he could have sent Uke abroad a long time ago but has no indentions of doing so... so does he just like that the uke is dependent on him? He definitely isn’t in love with him, nor does he seem very fond of him

i think that as much as the professor insists on not loving jaehyun he has become attached to the dependency, i think theyre codependent whether it be for sex or housing (or both in jaehyuns case) so i think he wants to feel needed, he seems to have a power complex he looks like he wants to have control over everything as well as being seen as someone who has everything

I have a feeling uncle and redheads relationship isn’t going anywhere until uncle fucks up real bad and realizes he’s really hurt redhead or something along those lines. I was all for putting the bratty kid in his place at the beginning, but now it’s a bit annoying the way uncle is handling things. I agree with other comments, it appears he’s going for the hurt you before you can hurt me approach, and seeing how uncle is someone who has been hurt in the past before that really sucks. I really wanted uncle to be this badass character that guides redhead and teaches him how to have a mature relationship, but it seems uncle doesn’t know how to have a mature relationship himself...

I would strangle the uke if I knew him in real life but just as an observer I like it so far! It’s nice seeing an uke that breaks the stereotypical mold. Not just the uke, but a seme is not often characterized as a goofy loner, plus he acts really cute when drunk! I didn’t expect this dynamic so it’s a nice surprise.

Is off. The main couples story was left off on a cliffhanger to focus on this side couple for how many chapters now? It’s not that I hate this couple, but it feels like the main couples story was abruptly cut off because it’s been so long. Its like when an author puts one of their stories on hiatus just when the climate of the story hits because they want to focus on another story...only it’s in the same book.
I know it’s a broken record at this point, but i wonder why the author chose this couple to focus on first and not glasses friends story...like they were properly setting it up and everything. Integrating the cute kid who has a crush on glasses friend into the story of the main couple. It would make since to divert the path of the main couple for a few chapters to focus on them because both of those characters were already apart of the story. I wish we had seen red hair on campus or had a couple of scenes of him at the bar while yuyang was there just so he didn’t show up out of nowhere. This couple really feels like the couples that get the extra one or two chapters after a story ends you know?

So here’s my gripe about yaoi in general. Why is it that the uke is never allowed to move on? The seme is allowed to fuck 1000 different people, have other relationship and so on but for the uke it’s always seme or no one, if they don’t patch things up with the seme they would spend the rest of their lives being alone and miserable dreaming of the days when they used to be with the seme.
So in this manga, when the uke spend all of those years pinning after the seme, and the seme was off getting a girlfriend, and then later marrying her, did he have other relationships? One night stands? Boyfriends/girlfriends?
I wish this answer was a yes, because maybe then I wouldn’t feel so frustrated with Sam all of a sudden deciding to act on these feelings that’s he’s probable had for awhile. He allowed himself to settle with marrying a women he didn’t love because he knew he still had the uke by his side, and had the Uke not shown signs of moving on he would have never acted on his feelings.

While I will agree with you about some yaoi(though I have read plenty where they go with second seme usually not the best choice imo lol), I think this one is different. Henry pining for Sam cannot be put on Sam's shoulders. Acting on one's feelings cannot be put on only one party. I realize it's to put blame on Sam because we get the full scoop of Henry's internal dialogue, where with Sam(and Seth as well) you get bits and pieces then you have to pay close attention to everything else.
The answer is yes, Henry has had other relations(more like f-buddies), one night stands. I doubt boyfriends because he's never been much of a people person. And yeah, you could say Sam allowed himself to settle, but you would then have to say the same about Henry.
Personally I believe that Sam has been preoccupied trying to get back and keep their friendship to even think about his deeper feelings. That's just my opinion/theory based on the little glimpses and references we've gotten into their past. More story remains and I adjust accordingly lol
He’s probable wearing a stab prof vest or some shit
