Everyone who is saying she shouldn’t be like that she should understand or the other way around and say it as riftan shouldn’t be like that please remember:
Maxi was abused. Never had validation. Assumes the worst due to conditioning and growing up in an environment were she was abused for doing the minimum of living. She thinks Riftan knows of her abuse but he doesn’t because her father fronted that he was “gifting” Riftan his daughter when really he was just trying to get rid of her to someone who had a rough reputation.
Riftan has never had to express his feelings. He is unaware of Maxi’s abuse and ISNT aware he should be sensitive to it. It’s shown multiple times that he thinks Maxi was spoiled growing up because of the way her father portrayed everything + the fact Maxi never came to the estate when they got married and instead stayed at her fathers (not by her own choice mind you) so he thinks she doesn’t see what he has as good enough. He’s a warrior who isn’t used to truly talking and communicating with others, he’s touch starved and probably thinks physical contact is the only way Maxi will truly understand what he’s trying to convey. He’s a take action ask questions later type of person.
Yes it’s understandable he’s upset and we all know it’s because she could’ve been hurt but no one can blame Maxi for being scared and assuming the worst at the same time.
Both of their feelings are valid.
So please stop with the Maxi/Riftan slander it’s truly just bothersome. If you don’t understand what I’ve stated above then maybe reread the story and actually pay attention.
