O.o some good old representation I see. That specific situation is rarely represented in books, although I've been seeing it slightly more often. Women have all the resources in the world for when something like that happens to them, but men really don't get much, if any help in his regard. I hope he ends up overcoming his trauma, not for MC and their relationship, but for himself and his happiness.
SPOILER (⊙…⊙ )
it makes me sad that people are already shitting on the ml but it's understandable since this is the start lol i mean i was like that too when i first started reading the novel
buuuuuut then i read some spoilers and found out that his daughter was actually a result of him being raped by his previous wife that's why he doesn't like touching women :((( that's also why he can't love/dote on his daughter bc of his trauma
