maybe direct that hatred to the abuser y'all are so weird and i'm beginning to think this is how y'all act towards victims irl

What makes you think that we don’t also hate him lmao
Do realize we can hate both
One for being a fucking piece of shit.
The other for being blind to their situation and not realizing that they need to walk away.
The signs of dislike, manipulation, accusatory behavior, etc are so blatantly obvious in this situation
JK doesn’t follow up after his bad behavior to love bomb/apologize to him
There was quite literally not a single moment where JK was good towards HIM and especially not when they were alone together
Imo Dan has no real reason to like JK at all other than for his naive narratives he creates for JK’s behavior

Ok I hate this story but I just wanna say that a character being written as being blind to a situation they need to walk away from isn't inherently a bad thing. That said the way it's written with Dan is abysmal because we don't feel anything for him besides mild pity for what he is going through 80% and annoyance at his actions/thoughts 20% of the time. He is so bland that most of his thoughts are either directed towards other characters or him self pitying, we barely get to know him as a person of his own accord imo

I get what you’re saying and agree
I didn’t mean to make it seem like people can’t make mistakes and misjudge their situation.
It’s more like what you said near the end, he’s bland and just like JK, he feels so static.
It’s as though he has no *inkling* of how he’s being treated and he feels no other emotion than self blame, THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SEASON. All 53 chapters bruh.
The pacing is what really makes my feelings for Dan the complete opposite of yours, 80% annoyance and 20% pity.
