Poor guy. Have faith in yourself Jooin! If he doesn’t want to show interest then get someone who does. I hate scenarios where others bring down the self esteem of their partners! Whether they are an official couple or not. Heck, my exes and my FWBs have always gassed me up and everyone deserves to be around people who may you feel like you are a freakin 12/10
I’m gonna say it. Tbh the manager does need to man up. Like dude, you don’t owe your ex SH*T. Why on earth should your ability to move on to a new relationship hinge on her petty approval? She was toxic. Hasumi, get some backbone and own up to your own personal emotions and relationships. Because this approach is really rude to the FL who summoned up the courage to confess to you.
The fact that he thinks he needs her approval to move on creates a path of him unintentionally continuing a toxic cycle in the way he handles relationships. No one should allow their happiness to be up to others or dependent upon their approval. The healthiest thing for him to do is take some time completely to himself to get over his ex and put distance between both girls.
It’s unrealistic of Hasumi to think that him achieving an amount of views on a project is going to magically snap his mindset into the healthy state it needs to be to be able to successfully cultivate a relationship. In fact, it’s childish. Both of them are for suggesting/agreeing to it. That is completely dependent upon himself and his own self esteem (and his ability to maintain it).
What’s sad is that he still thinks he owes the ex ANYTHING. He already explained to her how he felt and why things didn’t work. That’s all he’s really obligated to do. Past that, her closure is all on her because that’s internal and only she can give it to herself.
The saddest thing I think is that I doubt the manga is going to own up to that. She probably will let him go instead of him coming to the realization that he owes her nothing.
The mc too, she shouldn’t take so much bullshit honestly. She’s pathetic too. Why? Because this manga plays her attitude as loable.
This girl is pissing me off. Any decent person would see someone trying to be a good and loyal partner to their spouse and root them on. This black haired girl though? Nah. She just like “I’ve been here one hot week. Let’s try to break up the marriage of this couple that has so far been gracious and tried to help me.”
Sighhhh. I hope there is novel magic of unknown forces screwing with her thinking and she’s not really such a terrible person at heart.









Someone spoil me pls. I had to drop when I found out who she ended up with. It’s been awhile. Has there been anything that really redeems him from the past? Like was he controlled by magic and that’s why he was the scum of the earth or was that actually all him? (Because if so, I can’t redeem him whatsoever. She literally got killed for absolutely nothing and in the saddest way possible.)
