I have criticisms...some may find it fine, some may hate my guts forever.

Okay, fair warning before you kill me for criticizing the FL. I am not 100%, I am never the truth. What I consider crossing boundaries, another may find fit as a completely innocent and sincere act that should be welcomed without hesitation (to which I don't understand, but everyone has their own views)

I don't like her as of right now, because of one main factor, she keeps crossing boundaries. First off, she's a stranger who just is a guest in the ML's house, who's constantly forcing sweets on him, when he is drawing a line that he doesn't want to be crossed. Yes, he enjoys sweets, but that should not take away from the fact she's crossing the boundary, and he is not happy with that. He can't really make her leave either.

There's this reinforced idea that we should be grateful for everything given to us, however, it shouldn't be reinforced. We should be grateful once we choose to welcome said gift. She's viewing this still as a reader, that the ML is less like a real person but as a Tsundere for her to tame and win over. There are some sincere and cute moments, but scenes like the hotcakes one made me really uncomfortable and kind of frustrated.

The male lead is nowhere near innocent either, while he has clearly established some boundaries, that is no justification for leaving someone to the cold, ever. He may have this unrequited love and may need more time to heal or just be with himself, but you don't have to hurt someone else to do it.

What he did to FL and Hestia was a dick move.
