I’m at the age where my parents desperately want me to find a bf, marry and have children (they’re scared bc I’ve never shown interest in dating before lmao) & I think reading stories like this where the ml is either a huge green flag or becomes a green flag/treats the mc well is making me even more disinterested in finding a bf bc all of the men I’ve met in my life so far are sooooo far off this ideal :’) like I don’t expect ppl to be perfect bc hell I’m not at all but still haha. To my parents’ disappointment I’d rather be single than be w someone who can’t remotely match this level of care :’))











I love given sm :’) ik lots of ppl won’t agree with me, but I just love how realistic natsuki writes them. Ofc, the traditional route in relationships is to eventually live together, share a room, maybe be affectionate all the time? Like I feel like that’s what ppl assume happens. But fr lots of lovers sleep separately, esp if they have diff schedules (like ue and mafuyu). Fights also happen a lot even after establishing a relationship. Yes, there’s miscommunication too which is very frustrating ik but it’s not like life is gonna be perfect and there’s never going to be another moment where you’re not gonna disagree or have differing goals, especially when it’s about things you really care about. Anyway, I wish given would never end
