I'm normally not for childhood friends stories because most of the time they are not together for no good reason at all and they just keep pining for no reason when they could be together already so the story drags and everything feel so unnecessarily angsty to me, but this one was cute and had an unique twist to it. And I guess the unique story telling also contributed
I see that this story has a very high rating so I'll probably get downvoted as hell for this but... why does the seme need to clarify that he's bi?
I like the cute mutual pining stories as much as the next person, but that's when it's actually justifiable and cute. In this story, the seme threw nothing but straight balls to the uke, always being completely direct in his intentions of wanting to date the uke and being very obvious about liking the uke, but the uke kept doubting which gave room for the seme to start doubting which made this whole situation and then the uke has the audacity to feel sad because he thought the seme was putting distance between them??? YOU WERE THE ONE NOT BEING CLEAR. The one who should be sad is the seme because he thought he had an unrequited crush this whole time. I know the uke didn't have any experience, but even an unexperienced person can understand human words, right? And in the end he "justifies" it by saying that he didn't know if the seme was straight??? WHY ON EARTH WOULD THE SEME CONFESS AND ASK YOU OUT IF HE DIDN'T LIKE MEN???
I mean, I did not completely hate the story, but I can't say I wasn't frustrated and this story is not really that fluffy because of the things I pointed out above.
its human tendency to make assumptions and have a low self esteem . U dont have have to be so frustrated over it. If someone confessed to me my first thought wud be " is he being fr or is this a dare"
Also a lot of guys who are straight sleep with men whilst having a whole ass family. So ofc they have to be cautious
U might be the type of person to not question the other persons intentions but not everyone is like u . Even if seme was direct with his feeling dosnt mean the uke cant question it .
People with low self esteem tend to doubt even the obvious because they don't think they are worthy, and what Reeee said about guys with family hooking up with other guys on the side is reality, specially in a society like Japan.
Also, if you're serious about someone it's important to say your orientation, even though, as a bi man myself, it really pains me all the biphobia gay man usually have, that's why I'm glad this one isn't like that.
Also, the older we are the harder it is to dive into a relationship, specially if we never dated or had painful experiences.
But I totally get your frustrations.
I get it, but it doesn't mean I have to like it. Like I said, I didn't hate the story, it was fine. It's just not my preference.
Also, men who sleep with other men aren't straight, even if they have a family. That's just them lying to themselves.
Exactly but they still die while denying the fact that they are gay . So they ruin a lot of lives
Ouch. Felt personally attacked by this comment as someome who is ten times worse than the uke. AHahAhahaHa
╥﹏╥
Honestly, I relate so hard. My self-esteem is non-existent. I wont trust people who even want to be friends with me...like, you're just tolerating me right? I'll try not to breathe wrong so you don't hate me.
My last..."situationship" ended with us only ever holding hands and hugging and about 6 months of me not believing the other person liked me. And then when they stopped liking me, I realized "oh they did like me." And I got sad. Unfortunately, for people that are single, inexperienced, trauma, and anxiety, the most basic things are giant hurdles in our way.
Admittedly still very frustrating to read about ahahaha
Tbh, I agree with you. I have low self esteem but like. The cues WERE RIGHT THERE. He liked him, his crush CONFESSED TO HIM and theN HE REJECTS HIM WITHOUT COMMUNICATING ANY REASON. I love them but the uke is an idiot.
The moment she met with the doctor she wanted to assist I immediately thought: "wait, their hair is the same. They could be father and daughter, especially since they have such similar personalities." Then I find out he has a missing daughter. Geez, I suspected they're father and daughter after a few seconds but they're still dilly dallying. Also, how obvious is it that the cousin is the reason why the little duke is sick? She came from the future and knows everything about the cousin becoming duke was suspicious, how come she doesn't suspect him right away??? Especially after having heard what the cousin told the little duke when she first met them??? Ugh so frustrating
I'm only on chapter 3 and I already think the cat girl is really annoying. She stole the MC's food on a day that there wasn't enough food, meaning she left MC with even less food. Absolutely no consideration for others. I know she's a kid, but kids that grow up in that environment tend to learn to be more aware of their circumstances
The way MC doesn't realize that Violet in the game didn't have her knowledge so her mother couldn't possibly have had 2 more children and most probably actually died and that's why in-game Violet was like that and the way she's trying really hard to avoid her two friends who sincerely like her is really getting on my nerves, so I think I'm not going to keep reading.
OMG what are they even talking about on chapter 13 and 14. On chapter 13 I can still figure out what's going on by the context but I have no idea what's going on on chapter 14... Are the following chapters going to be like this as well? I can't read something I can't understand
Chapter 3 is so confusing. I don't understand what they're talking about. Bad translations
This story was quite interesting for a smut. I was really curious about what would happen. But seriously the empress dowager is a narcissist and should not have been forgiven so easily. So manipulative, she should've been confined into her own palace. I don't like the emperor's secretary either. He was more loyal to the empress dowager than the emperor himself even though it was the emperor who won the war and united the empire himself. Trashy people
Why are some chapters the same as previous chapters?
