ml: *being the worst husband ever, acting like she's a delicate jewel who knows nothing and can do nothing, bc hes scared* i was scared of losing you so i treated you like shit, ignored you and put up a wall between our hearts
fl: *who was neglected, then mercilessly thrown away tho it was a misunderstanding, just to be kidnapped back without so much as an explanation or conversation* no it was wholly my fault, i was so focused on my fears that i never thought of yours, even tho we both had our fears, since i am your wife it was my responsibility to think of you while you ignored my plees
bffr
"i wanna save my sister that was kidnapped by her husband, so I'm gonna kidnapp this suspicious woman" tf?
it doesn't take a genius to understand that ml was in love with his wife. like he went mad after her death. he became obsessed with the saintess even tho he constantly talked about hus wife before that. he blushes like an idiot everytime he sees her. he said "i just wanted to be happy with my love" not "with you" or "with you, my love". he's the fl's favorite character but shes doesn't know jack shit about him lmao
worst person in this story is the sister.
also what is it with them having one single bad experience with love women or men and letting it define their whole life? as if it's that deep
as always, the fl are mega masochists and the ml are stupid machos. how tf can you still be in love with someone who called you and treated you like a whore? if it had happened to me, even if he was as hot as the core of the earth, the flame of my passion for him would've freezed like an iceberg
I'm sorry, but fl was an absolute bitch and a horrible person all bc of her stupid groundless insecurities. sure you can be insecure, but when you start thinking the worst of ppl bc of your insecurities, you become the bad person.
they were both dumbasses, tho fl was entirely right about him being unreasonable for wanting her to stop her current life to fulfill his dream
the fact that fl has no backbone is so annoying, like wdym you're inviting the woman you assumed was his lover into your house? have some respect for yourself
all those stories are obviously written by americans, bc the way they portray greek/italian/european "traditions" and way of life is accurate to the 20th century lol
also, it's so fucking ableist it's insane, it's not even funny "oh poor me i lost a leg and took 2 years to walk again, i do not deserve your love and presence in my life bc i am weak, so i will cast you aside, but i will come back for you when it's convenient to me. no do not pity me, do not fear me, but i will assume you do and that your love is only pity in the face of my misery. oh poor me" stfu
