That’s what I’m saying. They both have different expectations for what their sex life should look like. The MC clearly wants something more on the caring side and is only going along with the BDSM bc he has feelings, not bc he enjoys it. It’s giving “if this is what I HAVE to do to be present in his life” instead of “I WANT to do this with my partner bc he enjoys it and I like it when he’s enjoying things”. Very different connotations.
Also the BDSM “explanation” was ridiculous. Why the hell didn’t ML do all that talking at the start of their “relationship” so that the MC knew what he was getting into, be fr lol, all that talk and still no one knows what’s going on/what the other person is thinking
They’re just not compatible they have to move on to different partners this is not a relationship you can compromise with especially if MC keeps shaking every single time even after he delivered that whole speech and that “:(“ was pathetic why else would u draw that if u weren’t reluctant to go the whole thing feels iffy nonetheless this is one of my favorite manhwas but it’s still frustrating
