Uke isn't exactly a green flag...

Nikki December 5, 2023 3:01 am

Am I missing something? Seme doesn't seem that bad to me (in the flashbacks anyways). He didn't move to define the relationship, but then, neither did the uke. We've seen nothing to insinuate that he's sleeping around, nothing that show he views uke as below him (like badmouthing him to other friends behind his back), they seem to both be genuinely enjoying their time together, and when uke finally brings up their relationship status, seme clearly draws a line and then asks to end it when uke is unhappy with his answer.
I'm not making any comment about the future kidnapping and egotistical claiming of his kid(def a red flag), but like...sex-friend relationships exist. It's honestly pretty normal nowadays to hook up without being in a traditional relationship. Uke is allowed to be upset and disappointed, but it doesn't immediately make seme the villain. Uke seems really insecure , a little delusional, and gets jealous for no reason. He talks about how affectionate the seme is, how at ease they are together, how their relationship is so great, but then never brings up his concerns until they fester and cause him more harm. Again, doesn't make the seme a villain.

    I’d agree with you on their past, since it was all mutual and they both didn’t official label their relationship. Though I also wouldn’t say the Uke isn’t a green flag or red flag. He’s not amazingly great or bad- he’s just an average person with insecurities and jealousy which everyone has. That wouldn’t make him a red flag as he didn’t harm anyone with such thoughts. The only sorta bad thing I’d say about the Uke is him hiding the kid- but then again I don’t think many would have the confidence to tell the truth to someone who only ever saw them as a fling. The thought of the seme wanting nothing to do with having a family is likely in the Uke’s eyes. Which is not unreasonable with how disinterested the Seme was in anything serious. If he’s too busy wanting to go around and have flings- it wouldn’t be a great look in the eyes of the child to see his dad acting like that.

    Anyways I think most of the hate should definitely go towards the future Seme. Sure he can freely be casual about his relationships but it’s him coming back and basically threatening to take the kid as well as immediately just wanting to sleep with him for fun again without even trying to have a decent conversation. It’s not looking so good for him.

    I agree with you, I don't really consider the uke to be a red flag either. Im curious to find out in the next few chapters what happens next, since they go from 'let's end this' to having sex in heat without the seme knowing who it was and getting pregnant. They might make the seme look a lot worse if we find out he knew about the kid but is only coming back now because it's convenient for him.

    You're right dude. It's MC own delusional mind which cooked up his exclusive relationship. None of ML business.
    If he has right to be sad then ML also has right to reject.
    Neither of them owe eachother anything. MC got too greedy for his own good. Which he even admits in 1st chapter .
    Don't worry he's aware.

    Your analysis is Exactly ON POINT. I had brought this up in my analysis last week (up to the available ch. 7). It was one of the points of contentions. First week was only six episodes so it was a little harder to make judgment, but by ch. 7 for sure we can see that's not how their relationship was. This week's development is REALLY Really heartbreaking...

    But I stand by what I said last week the beta-turned-omega has a lot of insecurities and he's also heads over heels but also scared to say anything. But by the time he did it wouldn't have changed anything. If the alpha had been an ass he could have dragged it on. He's still an ass. Because my heart breaks for Noah. But Ian definitely didn't do anything wrong. I'm going to assume Ian is ok w being friends. But that the now turned omega can't handle rejection and views it as Ian's not wanting anything more than just being friends anymore. I said that the Noah is just a "sopping wet mop of a sorry-ass omega" and this may have not sat well with the naysayers.

    In my previous analysis (up to ch. 7 as of last week) I hypotheised that Noah could have gone to have sex with Ian KNOWING that he had turned ...which then would have made him a bad guy for not letting Ian know ahead of time and then induced pheromones that makes Ian mark him. Just a thought. If it was accidental he still ran away, leaving a bonded alpha.

    Yes!!! Everyone is making him out to be so pitiful when he is being pitiful but mostly on his own. (・ω・)( ⚈⌢⚈)(´°ω°`)(〒﹏〒)

    He's a Self made Victim. Period. Most people in this comment section won't agree with me . But I'll say it again HE'S A SELF MADE VICTIM.
    If Alpha didn't say anything , then who taped MC's mouth ?
    He could have opened his mouth and asked. But no . He didn't.
    Few panels of chapter 8 clearly shows , MC is aware about his relationship. That his relationship is clearly doomed.

    First red flag: ML says he's glad MC is a beta. Which means he want nothing more than a casual relationship.

    Second red flag: ML bites in vicinity of his neck or non-existent glands. Meaning his inner Alpha craves an Omega.

    So yes.... He can act sad , be sad , cry or whatever. But he can't entirely blame Younger Alpha.
    They were adults & they both enjoyed sleeping with each other. It was consensual.

    I understand ppl were saying that Ian seduced him, but seduction is one thing, but he didn't clearly spell it out so that part is his fault. If Noah is inexperienced and couldn't tell then it's different, but he is afraid of rejection.

    I wouldn't say it is a red flag that the alpha said that he's glad that Noah is a beta...in my interpretation (up to last week's available episodes (ch.7)) it could have been that he is only saying that to assuage Noah or console him, or that he prefers a relationship not based on pheromones. Although, now that you've brought it up he probably doesn't want a relationship based on pheromones so that he doesn't get bonded.

    Just because he wants a relationship with a beta doesn't necessarily mean he doesn't want a serious relationship with a beta, in my opinion. Since there are plenty of stories that involves alpha x alpha, alpha x beta, and beta x omega. I'm not sure if Ian's motivation , but it just looks like he doesn't want to be serious with Noah, who is also a beta. It's still uncertain if he had approached Noah and seduced him or became fwb with him because he is a beta, or if their relationship had evolved into that kind of thing on their own.

    Or to be in a relationship based on pheromones because it is being dictated by pheromones and not true feelings.

    Yep but one thing was certain that he dropped hints about him not wanting any serious relationship with MC.
    MC ignored those clear signs. INTENTIONALLY!
