i came here pretty hopeful because i think a good miscommunication trope is the best thing ever and i saw so many recommendations on social media but was thoroughly disappointed with this. the characters skirted around each other so much it felt like it was dragging on and on... so many of the hardships that MC faces felt artificial and had no impact since the ML just resolved them and none of their "development" moved me. and not to mention ML pretends to be one of those caring semes but is overall just a really shitty and apathetic person --- super skeptical of uke and leads him on for no reason. the premise had an okay hook to it but the story really just led to nowhere, a lot of the plot points werent fully fleshed out and dropped quickly in the middle. not to mention this is prolly one of the only bls where i wasnt interested in the sex at all and skimmed through the scenes, i felt like it wasnt passionate and half the time the MC was pressured to do it (by himself of course, but thats still a problem lol) or the ML was coming on to him. wasted potential.
