Honestly finally someone w common sense. It’s honestly irritating at some point when people reduce these characters into some senseless tropes when they’re more than that. Like you said Andrew has deep rooted issues, esp with the way he was raised that plays a role in his future relationship. Nathan knows what he wants and he knows he’s not the type to chase attention of people who don’t want to give it to him, that’s his flaw. Andrew relies heavily on Nathan to guide him on their sexual relationship which would be fine if he was honest but he also kept pushing away Nathan which was his flaw. They both have flaws as characters and they’re both realistic in a sense so idk why ppl keep villainizing Nathan whilst portraying Andrew as a damsel smh
Andrew needs to work on himself. He has been through a lot which has gravely damaged his confidence and a person cannot rely on another person to fix that for them because that relationship is gonna be toxic as hell. I pity Andrew because his love is genuine but he must emerge from his shell because he comes off as pathetic. He does everything to please the person he loves and I think in the future this is detrimental. I was hoping seeing another person take away Nathan would pull him out of his shell but it didn't. I was irritated with both of them tbh but I did see both their perspective and I think it's realistic. Well it's interesting to see what's going to happen next.
