I don't rmb much, so when I came back to reread and started from the part which the green haired guy talked abt how going out with the MC felt like he was doing something wrong, I liked that part. I thought he was just a heartbroken guy who wasn't the right fit for the MC, since MC could become a better version of himself with the ML.. How nice it'll be if they were both in love with each other but just couldn't be happy with each other, so they both moved on to find someone else whom they could be happy with. Unfortunately, the author wrote him as an asshole.
I just wish the ex partners of MCs or MLs aren't portrayed as assholes but as ppl who we'll want to wish happy endings for, which will make the stories more layered, fun and interesting.

Feels like the story ended out of nowhere. The girl that was introduced very briefly to spice things up was gone in two panels. Poor girl wasn't even significant enough to be considered a little side character. Adding her in feels so redundant bcus her only role was to make MC happy when ML rejected prolonging his protection just bcus the girl was scared.
Reminds me of that manga where the abused(?) girl was kidnapped by a guy who stalked her, and she was so much happier with him. If they're happier, even if questionable, can I really judge?
Was about to ask if you're referring to "Kedamonotachi no Jikan" but no that one was just psychological/physical torture and even the happy bits were manipulation
Ah definitely not that. I think the one I'm talking abt even has an anime, but it's been years since I read it so I dont rmb anymore.
Sachi-iro no one room?
Yep!
