Naah I feel like the uke is using the seme to get out of his toxic relationship with the red hair guy. idk this feels wrong to me and seeing people commenting about the raws just confirms what i'm feeling reading this

If he really cares about the seme, he should break up with him and wait a while until he can organize his feelings and decide what to do... I mean he broke up with the red hair guy and then jumped straight into a relationship... He didn't even have time to grieve alone and think about the things that happened. That's what's wrong with this story

He's boring and didn't take any action, he waited for Helena to break the engagement first and then confess his feelings to Louisa... He was already thinking that he didn't love Helena and yet he didn't end his relationship with her first. I wanted him to be a real man and take the necessary actions at the right time

Why is he going out alone with this woman who clearly has feelings for him? (and accepting her chocolates too...) I even try to like him but he doesn't make it easy

Nah, in Japan, women are expected to give chocolates to most of the men they work with on Valentine's Day - just courtesy chocolates, but still something. Then the men give some small gift back on White Day. It's a lot more tradition-based than romantic, in many cases - like Ichika and her friends all exchanged friendship chocolates, and Tamaru knew Ichika's chocolates for him were the same ones she gave to the other girls - not special ones.
Now, if a woman is trying to make her feelings known or if they are a couple already, then she would give fancier chocolates or homemade. Yes, there are levels of chocolates when it comes to this stuff in Japan. If Ichika had given Ryo chocolates, she would have had to decide on which type to give him.
Im gonna drop. I don't even know why we're seeing the past of this asshole. Is the author trying to justify the bad things he did? It makes no sense to show this now...
