uggh i hate the ''but he's only like that with you, he's so sweet with us, give him a chance'' retoric so much!! i hope they're not going to push it too much

beause, so what?? is mc supposed to feel flattered the guy can't control his emotion around him and treats him like shit? is he supposed to feel pity for this poor adult guy who can't regulate his own emotion?
i hate it!! he still has done terrible things to him, why do you feel the need to defend him by explaining how he acts around you. who cares omg

    Pretty sure it’s more of a he’s irrational and not logical when it comes to you. TBH I’m pretty sure they’re only like 22 so most of their behaviour is kind of on par with said age group, in terms of finding themselves, learning how to regulate their emotions etc

    yeah you're right, they're pretty young but i still don't think this retoric makes sense. i really don't see how someone saying ''he only treats YOU like shit'' to a victim of assault helps the guy's case.
    1. it feels like the classic apologist retoric : ''but he didn't do anything to ME'' to defend assaulters.
    2. it kinda puts the blame on MC. everytime the guy sees MC he goes ham, what is MC supposed to think after hearing that it's only with him? it kinda implies that his actions or just him existing provoked the guy.
