Jeremy explicitly said that there's a wall between Shuri and him that he couldn't (he wouldn't) pass through. Idk about yall but I think that was the answer we were looking for. I'm very certain that he's now aware how he feels too. That's why during the tournament he said that he felt defeated, even tho he won, because Nora could break thru the wall he couldn't even dare touch. Although I agree with u that he shouldn't hold such feelings, but I think that it gave the story and characters more depth (it also breaks my heart to see bby Jeremy suffer). But I'm looking forward to how he'll overcome it and who he'll end up in the future tho!
He loves her and loved her,
in the first timeline he was in love with Yuri and today too. she was his first puppy love for him.
In the first timeline he distances himself from Yuri because of that and he did not go to invest in her in person at him wedding.
In the first line of time he wanted her to go to his wedding, he wanted to mark a before and after in him life. But his fiancee ruined everything.
He had never seen her as a mother, none of them really saw her as a mother on the front line. Nowadays he loves her too but he tells Nora that if she is happy he is happy. And he will support nora.
He doesn't love her like that. That kind of love they had in his first life was not love love. It was love for a parental/Guardian figure. He just her to be there for him at the end when he finally got married. Of course, that also means supporting Nora and Shuri's relationship in their second life.
I think some of y'all are misunderstanding me. Like i don't think he's going to take action on these feelings he has. I obviously get that Nora will very likely be end game. I just wanted the author to make it to where he never had romantic feelings for her at all. Sure they are close in age and obviously it's probably impossible to see as a parental figure. But I was wanting the author to not take a opportunity to make Jeremy gain a unrequited love. Because now I'm just going to be thinking everytime I see the two of them is that he is crushing on his siblings mother. Obviously I'm going to continue reading anyway, I had just hoped the author wouldn't take that path in the story and would go the more pure family route
The author just had to make Jeremy have feelings for Shuri. When he screamed at Elias I was so happy to hear he didn't like her that way. Then bam next several chapters...sike I was lying ( ̄へ ̄)
