HHHHHH WHY ALWAYS THIS KIND OF PEEPS

If you know someone was straight and tell them a joke like that U dont think they'll be offended. It just became a big deal because he doesnt know that the boss is not straight hahahahha... That's bad

the boss is most likely bisexual. he seemed to only dated girls in the past but now he's interested in iro without think twice so i think that's the case

But you're forgetting how the boss initially approached iro was terrible, in fact Iro initially thought the boss was homophobic himself. Of course he's upset that boss for all intents and purposes who's straight and who he likely feels insecure about given their positions, their difference in maturity and experience, looks, etc is with someone like him out of nowhere. Given BL's erasure of bisexual characters the boss attraction will likely be explained as I'm attracted to you because it's you Mr. Iro which is some sort of pansexual if we want to be specific. However because the boss isn't actually attracted to men the way Iro is, if he wants to go back exclusively dating woman as was his truck record,. Iro doesn't have any assurance that eventually their relationship isn't just a phase or a passing whim because the boss is bored of his previous selection of partners. I personally don't like the virgin and playboy or playboy with a past plot for this reason among others. It's just frustrating because the author blantently ignores how unbalanced the relationship is where experience sometimes can be of great importance depending on how the character's maturity is written or the author will resolve the insecurity with more sex which ultimately doesn't address the issue at heart which is the character questioning their self worth within the relationship.

Normally those plot will make the virgin looks stupid and fool about love and will just forgive or forget about the past attitude of the seme. Thou some find it cool if the uke forgave the seme, it's just annoying how stupid the uke to forgive and forget without proper conversation. Normally the seme's way of reconciling would be tempting the uke through sex then will eventually let bygones be bygones

hmm don't expect someone would write reply this long but thanks mate. i personally don't take it that deep because this story core genre is comedy and not psychological, so maybe i don't mind about details? how would you approach your own subordinate--who's just rookie that basically join into your company--without putting any jealousy and suspicion from another workers? he couldn't make a move in the office because another worker would start gossiping that iro joins company thanks to him; let alone asking iro for personal contact. ofc iro would always questioning because he was basically a virgin, but doesn't the boss tried to take time to adjust? from my personal take, it's because they started the relationship from a misunderstanding and the story only be told from iro's perspective. that's why readers put into his shoes himself and not for the other characters. up until now, there's still no flashback arc from the boss' side and the fact that he just dated girls only being told on this chapter. and maybe this is me being curious but why you dislike playboy x virgin trope? i think as long as people don't cheat in their current rls, the past is no matter any else. that's why people have something named communication, to clear every misunderstanding and ease up any insecurity
