I don't think it's a bad thing, because it's not like it's shallow. It really explores his perspective, how he became that way and how it impacts others in his life. It makes the characters feel more like people.
My point is that if a reader just wants to see two hot dudes kiss with no issues whatsoever, then go read thaaaat. His issues aren't a fault, they're a feature!
Guys the whole story is about his abandonment and attachment issues Like if you took that away from him, it's a story about nothing. God forbid we have interesting characters.
