Idk about the bashing of the second wife, but I can see why people focus their comments more on her. The other three are VERY obvious about their issues, and it’s self-explanatory- there’s no actual need to spell it out what’s wrong with them. Most of the hate or bashing of the other three characters happened in the beginning or a while ago when the scenes of them still happened. Now we hardly see the OG FL and her ex husband hence why no one speaks much about them anymore since they’re not relevant to the POV happening now. I do agree that the story revolves around all four characters as flawed people and none being 100% good.
The only reason I focused more on the second wife was because she’s a bit harder to notice her own issues compared to the others. Since she’s displayed in the sort of pitiful way compared to everyone else, I wanted to point out certain low key things that weren’t as obvious to show she’s also flawed.
That’s fair. I did point out some flaws the second wife has as well myself in my last comment. Stuff like how one can’t expect their partner to always put up with her lack of contribution to the marriage and finding a balance with what she likes aka her job and her husband otherwise the relationship would fall apart (which it did lol)
However someone was saying how if the second wife likes her job more than her husband, she should “fck” herself and that she’s a bad person which I really don’t think that even compares to everyone else who were cheating on their spouses. And proceeded to call her a cold person, which was really weird because I know she has some issues to resolve but at the end of the day her husband knew she was someone passionate about her job and overestimated how much he could handle. It sounded like a woman can’t enjoy something that makes her passionate other than a man.
Yeahhh I don’t agree with that person, it sounds like they just projected their own ideal or trauma onto her. Maybe they had a partner who focused more on their work than them hence why they’re mad at her. There’s also women who do have close minded ideas due to being raised in a culture that has women less than men (I’ve personally seen such women criticizing others who don’t fit into their standards like not dressing modestly or having armpit hair, or having guy friends, etc.)
I agree with you
This is story where EVERYONE is flawed. The second wife is literally the less flawed one out all of them. Why am I seeing so many comments attacking only her when her husband cheated on her? I’ve already explained my personal thoughts on their characters but few of y’all are missing the point of what the creator is trying to make.
Fmc feels unwanted in her marriage and is seeking some sort of validation from another person, her husband lied to her about ever wanting kids. Something that was so important to her that it shattered any hope of trying to save the failing marriage.
I’m not going to repeat myself on the second couple but I will add more. The second husband KNEW that 2nd wife was someone who was passionate about her work however he underestimated how much he could’ve handled not being able to see her from time to time. And I called it when I said she was going to accept the offer because if she hadn’t, she would’ve regretted and that would’ve lead to resentment towards her husband. She now acknowledges that she shouldn’t expect her partner to just suck it up and should find someone who can handle her. Someone who has the same values. I’m hoping the same applies to the now ex husband, to not “bite off more than he can chew”
