Hmm.. I'm assuming that its maybe because I binged the whole thing,

But... this was really just a big fat mess.

I'm not sure what I expected, and I get that this manhwa portrayed a "real relationship", not one of horny fantasy like so many others (not that I mind them, I like those too, just that this one is more of a take on reality). But perhaps, well most likely due to that, I'm just thinking that this manhwa ended up as, really, not much more than a clusterfuck.

I definitely wouldn't call it enjoyable. Most of the time I spent reading through was spent wondering wtf was happening. I didn't even realise that some situations were implications of cheating, until Lauren mentioned it. Hell, if someone asked me what the story was about, I wouldn't be able to say anything, just "um... two guys? in a relationship? no sex? that's a problem...? and then cheating and parental issues? they break up and get back together... the.. end...?" That would probably sum up the whole story. Even now, I'm not sure what happened exactly.

The ending just hit me like... ??? ok??? for the larger half of the manhwa, they're fighting and then suddenly Chip is cheating and then they break up and then they get back together and bam! its the End.

My feelings at the end were just... empty. No suspense, nothing. No excitement, not joy or sadness, just well... just 10/10 a disappointing read.

    On the other hand, I find this so good. Binged read the whole thing too and I am so satisfied with the story and the conclusion. Was really looking forward to smut scenes but sadly, there ain't any but still enjoyed it nevertheless. Not really tryna argue but maybe the key reason why I enjoyed this is because as a guy, I kinda relate with the characters.

    I mean, to each their own. Unfortunately, for me, this was probably one of the most mudane stories I've ever read. But I can see how people can be into that.

    I feel the same. I was rooting for Chip up until he cheated. I get that the author wanted to portray that both were at fault for their breakup, but it ended up feeling... empty for me when they ended up together.

    also, this is a bit late, but I'm a girl. So maybe that's why I couldn't relate lol

    I was hella disappointed. I just realized now, but even communication didn't seem to be a factor in this story at all.

    I don't think because you a guy. I'm a woman and I loved it, unlike the story are pretty far away from usual yaois (I like them too). There's something about real, twisted human being, their weakness, all those things that stuck down yourself.
    I recognized characters I've met in my life and also parts of me.
