It’s interesting you say that because her behavior aligns with patterns often seen in children who have experienced abuse and extreme neglect. She’s highly reactive, aggressive, loud, and forceful—traits that can develop as coping mechanisms when someone grows up unable to defend themselves. I don’t think she’s selfish at all; rather, she puts up a front. A truly selfish person wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to protect her brother. Instead, she consistently goes out of her way to help those around her and makes a genuine effort to admit when she’s wrong, despite never having learned proper communication from the adults in her life. In contrast, her brother seems more selfish. He remains naive to what’s happening around him because he can’t bear the thought of not being seen as the good guy, even when it puts his own family in danger.
Yes I know that’s why I said she’s not the only victim but she also is way too overprotective, you have to imagine how the brother would feel if he’s not allowed to hang out with anyone. She does too much that it makes her selfish because she thinks she knows better and therefore it has to go they way she wants it to. The brother is indeed naive because he was not allowed to learn about the world. It’s not selfish to try to find love or company from someone, even if you didn’t know they were a bad person.
oh man i accidentally clicked the like button
Anw the brother is annoying yk? he's so conflicted on being so "kind" and " not free" when in fact he can be FREE on his own choice
are u just hating on the mc cuz she's so vocal and unhinged HAHAHAHHAA
No, I’m not hating because she’s “vocal or unhinged”, I hate her because she’s always acting like she’s the only victim and that no body compares to her pain. Although I do find some of her actions annoying. Like I mentioned to someone else the brother acts and thinks the way he does because the sister didn’t let the brother experience anything, he’s literally being keep in a bubble. And if you keep trapping someone they’re gonna think no one wants them and start hating the people trapping them, which is completely valid.
ok but what abt the brother literally staying friends with the asshole who literally publicly humiliated his own sister which was supposed to happen to him. Ofc she’s overprotective, like are you forgetting how many bad endings the brother was supposed to face if not for the sister?? Like and the endings weren’t just bad they were down right horrific. I’m not gonna sit hear and lie, mc def has her own flaws, but so does the brother, and in my opinion he is ignorant by choice. Mc by no means stops the brother from going out and making friends, all she did was try to prevent the brother from meeting the yandere dude because she knew exactly what he would try to do. Maybe she should have actually explained that she was protecting him from bad ppl but how would she even explain herself?? The brother is not being restrained or even isolated, you clearly have never had tough love.
in all honesty i haven't seen her acting like she's the only victim
true
I think you are in a small percentage. She is VERY realistic. Both her selfishness and her reactions from all the things done to her - in her 2nd life and out. Also keep in mind: her pain is mainly from her past life. And only being added to from her second life.
She is the ONLY one suffering that pain. She can’t go talking about it with others. They won’t understand. And the one who DOES is her knight. She can’t even mourn her family properly. Her brother is way more selfish than her. His biggest sufferings is being in a very homophobic world, and daddy issues. Because he isn’t aware of all the bad men who want to use him and his body. Otherwise he is generally liked by everyone he interacts with (who isn’t one of the crazy “male leads”), even household staff loves him more. But he is super shy. And because he isn’t as extroverted as his sister he feels overshadowed. And that’s a him problem. That’s a he lacks confidence. NOT helped by her being overprotective nature, but she is because again she can’t really explain and she doesn’t know how to show love normally. The minute she leaves him alone he goes down dark paths. Really a solid talk between the two would help out a lot.
Am I the only who really hates her and wishes the story focused on the brother?? She is extremely selfish and acts like she’s the only victim and that her feelings/experiences matter more. The only reason I’m still reading this because of the brother.
