maybe it’s just me, but i feel like winter isn’t ready for a relationship yet. he’s currently not emotionally well because of all the trauma and PTSD that he’s been bottling up for a long time. i think rather than being in a relationship, he needs more of a friend to confide in. i also think the “feelings” winter has for the ml is more like mistaking care and kindness for love. the ml has been looking out and caring for winter throughout the whole story. i think especially since winter has been kinda lacking that for a while/prevented himself from receiving any sort of assistance from others, the ml is more filling in that missing role for him, rather than being a potential romantic partner. maybe it was the pacing for me that’s making me think this, or just me misinterpreting or misreading, but i feel winter didn’t really get to know the ml before developing those feelings, besides just that he is always willing to help.

the ml i also feel like isn’t quite ready yet either. he seems to lack emotionally intelligence, and i don’t think they would be a good match in their current states. overall, THEY GOT STUFF TO IMPROVE ON/SORT OUT. you can’t care for another person unless you care for yourself first.

(sorry if what i said didn’t make sense loll, just wanted to give my view on things. )
