I just cannot enjoy the MC’s misery

I just do not understand this plot. Are we suppose to collectively gaslight ourselves into forgetting how abusive the ML has been and that he’s utterly an asshole but yes he’s deserving of the MC simply because he’s the love interest? I get that MC has been in fact annoying and pushy, but why not write a clear concise rejection, rather than this dynamic of let’s torture him because it’s funny. This is the same bullshit energy that is the dynamic of Ashita wa Docchi Da! that is so beloved among this community it’s no surprise an author saw the romanticized bs that is Kirara and Ken’s relationship and plots similar to its dynamic and ran with just an extreme for laughs. Abusive relationships are not funny and it truly baffles me this is entertaining to people, it’s just legitimizes them as normal.

    Not be mean or anything cause I get what your saying but this story isn’t meant to be taken seriously and I don’t think that one author is trying to normalize it. Also it says in the tags that it’s a toxic relationship so if it’s not your cup of tea you don’t have to read it. This dynamic might not be ideal but I believe the reason why so many stay and like it it’s cause it’s different you don’t see this dynamic everywhere. Plus this story is a genre meant for a specific audience. I’m just saying don’t yuck someone else’s yum. I mean why shit on a story that is gore and horror or a stalker psychological story. It would be dumb to complain about a how scary one webtoon is and question why a readers likes it when it’s just doing it’s job. I could say more but I won’t. Anyway don’t rock you brain too much it’s fine not to enjoy it just wanted to give another pov. :)
