The guy was raped. He was taken advantage of. He never cheated physically or emotionally. But it was wrong for ml to lie to fl about the whole ordeal. But given the circumstances i dont i think i would have believed his innocence if i were in the fl's shoes, bcz she already had a hunch.
Now to FL. Imma be honest and say the ml didnt deserve fl. Im not saying fl is bad, but fl is bad for ml since fl has a lot of repressed trauma. She doesnt talk about it or even take therapy and just keeps bottling them up and it just feeds her trauma and insecurity more. The ml is very kind and tolerable for the fact that he never pushed her or pressed her to open up. But like he said, he had to walk on eggshells around her just so he wouldnt push her buttons. Its mentally exhausting to be around a person who has issues, guys. Especially since shes always pushing him away and theyre living a fake exterior of a life, it was bound to crumble.
The fl never loved him. Fl just went on with the flow and became codependent on him. She never saw a future with him. He was just a shoulder to lean on, but even after staying together for so long, fl didnt consider marriage. Whereas the ml is draining himself always having to negate the thoughts of marriage, children or any kind of future. Hell, he cant even bring it up to her cuz hes scared off triggering her. ML also has dependecy issues but its not as sever as the fl with her already added baggages from her family. Honestly, they are better off with out each other. Fl needs to love and be loved and so does ml. But theyre with the wrong person at the wrong time
no, ur right. unresolved trauma where one is unable to talk about is not healthy for both the ppl involved. ofc no one is wrong as individuals but it's only right if the fl can be honest with the ml. however, it's natural to have all the fears of getting abandoned and that is exactly why she should seek help bc her boyf doesn't deserve this treatment. the ml has been such a nice and understanding person throughout, so it was alr tiring him out mentally and while he always set clear boundaries with other ppl approaching him, somehow he should've been stern with the other girl, even more so, considering how she kept being clingy and inconsiderate despite knowing he had a gf. it's unlikely he cheated but was very obviously taken advantage of as from the flashback he called out his gfs name. so, its not cheating cus the whole time he thought it was his gf. but true, they don't deserve each other. it's really draining to be with someone who is insecure to the point of not being able to open up to their s/o. and it must be terrible for the fl having grown up in an abusive family and experiencing a shitty relationship in the past only to find out her current boyf also lied to her.
oh god he forced inwoo to meet his mother and when inwoo reacted like he should, his first concern was how he failed to change him.jiho did not feel any sort of regret as to how jiho overstepped his boundaries. I come from a loving household and i havent seen any toxic shit while growing up and even i know when not to fuck around. People always have different circumstances its always so important to be considerate.
Also fuck jiho why did the first person he run to was his ex-fuck buddy? Now theyre gonna stretch this particular plot and drag on with misunderstandings so much, i just fucking hate how predictable this is. I loved this bcz of its familiarity and how it was so close to realistic feelings but this is just heading towards the same old cliche bl hill. Fuck this man
Omg! The way you said everythng in my heart. I read the raws a while back and during this scene I just can't believe how wrong Jiho did Inwoo. I mean Inwoo is always careful about the fact that Jiho doesn't like being too public and he respects him and doesn't push it, even with Jiho's family, he was so patient and understanding and supporting Jiho.
Meanwhile Jiho goes and forces him to meet with his mother who is literally a source of his trauma. You don't force someone who is not ready to meet their trauma no matter what, anyone who has a brain knows that. You take it slow and atleast talk to them at the very least.
Also I don't think they dragged out the ex-fuck buddy plot too much and from what I remember Jiho ends up going and apologizing. I won't say more since that would be a spoiler but yeah, I really hope Jiho gets a brain soon and sorts it out cause this is just plain dumb from his side.
Exactly and agree.
Inwoo really did a number on jiho by kissing him publicly like, how you like that? Doesnt feel so good having your insecurities thrust upon you, does it. And jiho just ponders about how his plan failed. This really hit a nerve within me. Imo this is just bad writing from the writer, but how can i not expect them to be practical when theyve been so realistic up to this point? Why did jiho not think that he hurt him and why was his first thought about "HIS" plan. Sorry im getting a little personal here bcz i deal with people like these everyday where they dont realize their mistake and they make everything about themselves and begins the self pity. Just address the problem and say it was wrong of me i shouldn’t have done that. He really shouldn’t have made it about himself.
Literally and this isn't even the end of it. He does the same thing once again I think all while thinking that he can fix Inwoo, he can change Inwoo, he can help Inwoo get over it but like if anything, you do not force this sort of thing on another person.
I have social anxiety and just trying to converse with someone is so so hard and causes me so much anxiety meaning I would hate it if someone pushed me like this or put me in such a situation where I'm not comfy and nervous. For Inwoo, Jiho was the one who's supposed to understand and love him and respect the boundaries but the way he did so and then wonders why.
I mean has he never tried to see Inwoo's perspective?! It's so absurd to me.
It's common sense that you do not force a person unexpectedly, out of nowhere to face their trauma or put them in that spot. It's terrifying and if anything Jiho should know that and understand it.
I guess this was the authors way of adding conflict but it doesn't fit with Jiho's previous character-building. Still oh well, angst and stuff â•®( ̄▽ ̄)â•
I'm annoyed that they keep introducing new characters and dynamics and they will take 10-20 more chapters to establish their foundation in the story. are all of these really necessary? i mean yeah, the story must collide somewhere so sunwon is forced to fess up about his identity or he could actually be their god, in a new twisted fantastical way. but everything feels just so overwhelming for me, new characters, new plot development, i hope this turns out well cz i see no way how the author can make things work out of this hotchpotch









Fl doesnt deserve ijun. There i said. All these times she couldve shared her secret, she decided to tell him during a wedding??? He didnt even wanna attend? That was so sick and twisted of fl
