Ain't Healthy

Sorry, I rarely have this much trouble with a manga, and I don't want to shame anyone who enjoyed it but damn that was an unhealthy manipulative relationship. This my friends is called emotional abuse. I have never had such a strong reaction to a character as I did Hideaki but it was like reliving my own 8 year abusive relationship all over again.

Ridiculous expectations of you that they consider normal -Check

Seriously peeps, abuse isn't just with fists. And it doesn't always come with insults and ugly words. Gas-lighting* is the sneakiest emotional abuse, its hard to notice which makes it one of the most difficult to escape. And just like every other kind of abuse the abuser either isn't even aware that they are being abusive or they have justified it in some way, so talking to them about it is like throw penguins off cliffs hoping they'll learn to fly. Hopeless and unhealthy.

* Gaslighting- Crazymaking, purposefully making someone question themselves or their sanity through manipulation. (Gaslighting can occur in many forms, it can actually appear positive as some forms use praise as a way to win your trust and then use that against you later, like making you feel special and then they threaten your special-ness in some way causing you to act as they please to regain it. Similar to positive reinforcement training used on animals but much more subtle and unpleasant.)
