Honestly I dont even get the point of SooWoon constantly withholding info from Seokjo like what's the actual point. SooWoon won't let himself get into a relationship with Seokjo despite harboring feelings for the guy, but is trying to get close to the guy without having to expose himself as well by even not being properly friends either. Like what does SooWoon actually get out of this?
Maybe he just wants to pretemd like nothing happened. Who knows? All we can do is imagine what we would do in his position. Tbh i would do what hes doing even though its stupid
Guilty Pleasure
Um the guy who accused you of knowing what your father did to his father is someone you want to tell the truth to? If he had done that, THAT would have been stupid. Ktbn
Well good on you for SPOILING everything. However my question is valid as SooWoon’s best friend asks the exact same thing minus the new information provided from the recent chapter.
i know this is harsh but after reading A Man Like You with a character like Siwon, i just had to role my eyes when Sunwoo Yeon was drugged like that. I mean you've been attacked multiple times, every times you to be careful and notify your manager of things, you even briefly thought wow this sounds like a bad idea maybe I should tell someone or bring someone with be just be safe. God I tire of utterly stupid cutesy characters and have no sympathy for them. I mean you're dumb as a rock if you've purposely allowed yourself to be a situation which time after time you can't be bothered to learn from.
I see people disliking your comment (dunno if it's on purpose,probably is..idk idc) but I totally agree. These types of characters get very careless. I understand it's a story and not real and whatever but it does get annoying. Him being a celebrity and with everything's tgat happen ed to him...HES GOTTA BE 1000 TIMES MORE CAUTIOUS!!! Fine. Don't tell ur manager but tell SOMEONE.
Exactly. I get the use of it for the plot but more and more authors are making charcters that behave impossibly like a thinking person, especially one who is a celebrity and has and knows the terror of not being cautious. Does it make sense to have the character repeatedly lack common sense? My suspension of disbelief only goes so high before it’s just stupidity. That’s really what irks me when people rely on the excuse of fiction, fiction relies on elements of reality. Human’s don’t have an imagination that magically creates things from
nothing, we are physically incapable as our need to categorize
and make pattern of things is inheritant. So then why make characters who seems to not be able to do so and have anthropomorphic qualities but give them something basic and clear reasoning?! It just makes my head hurt.
but not give them*
Totally agree but let’s hope the Mc reflects on what happened and doesn’t get dumber as the Mc of “a man like you” oh boy I gave up on reading that story.
I did too, I see it in my stream and I’m like, I liked this but stopped reading it for a reason, i will probably go back to it when it finishes just to see the end but idk cuz it got real dumb real fast
I actually thought when he looked at the tea that he would refuse it but nope. My hopes were dashed. I was so happy because I read another BL story and a similar thing happened but the mc refused the drink (which was in fact drugged) but was kidnapped anyway due to another circumstance. It’s still one of my favorites to this day just because the MC’s aren’t stupid and I can actually believe the story
are they confusing hosts with escorts because from my understanding hosts aren't required to have sex or be intimate with their clients. But if it's a licensed sex work where there's the expectations of sex as one of the services then it's legal prostitution/escorting.
I think its more like MC is confused... ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
Hi translator here! There is a fine line between the too and in this particular setting they are escorts with host background. Same with in real life if you go to a host club and you offer money for sex some of them might take it. However in this story the MC is working at a brothel.
Oohh... Thanks for explain
also how do you get downvotes for asking a question?I can't with people on this site.
How does the manga get low ratings for a lame title?I can’t with people on this site.
damn the first time reading a story where the uke completely acknowledges they've fallen for a playboy and know the consequences will end badly. The seme is definitely going to cheat on him likely in the future you can just tell ( his i just have charm and go with the flow of being a homewrecker excuse nailed that; he takes pride in it as you can see) and that really sucks I REALLY hate the whole I love you and I continue to flaunt sleeping with other people in front of you. It might be different because the uke feelings were unknown but even had they been it highlights you really enjoy pleasure and momentary gratification. When you're not in a committed relationship you can sleep with anyone you want, but it somehow cheapens your feelings for the other party when later you reveal said feelings and had been pursuing others the entire time in front of your love interest's face with not even a hint of tactfulness. It really makes the other party feel uncertain about your definition of intimacy and especially how you'll be the sort to want be able have your cake and eat it too, meaning be a man of habit and enjoy the pleasure you've received till now. Actually have seen friends in similar situations and it always ends badly.
Oh! You might be right, but I interpreted it differently. Well, I agree with most of what you say - I never like it in stories where the person is having flings right in front of the person they're supposed to be in love with. What I interpreted differently was that he could see it would end badly. He definitely thought that at first, but I thought that afterwards, although he hadn't built up the trust YET, he was willing to believe the other guy's sincerity and that trust might be built in the future. (And I felt that the line he said about not trusting him forever was more of a cheeky throwaway thought meaning that he intended to keep him by his side wooing him for life.) Maybe that was optimistic of me, but it makes me happier to go with an "it'll all turn out alright" interpretation, hehe.
I kinda agree with you there lol it just shows how much of a good guy (and how whipped he is for his love sighhh) the uke is (￣∇￣") Tho we all know the seme's a good for nothing brat that'll probably cheat on the uke in the future. Can we at least I wanna see the seme gets dumped by the uke or smth sighhh ╮(￣▽￣)╭
i don't know why but i find this so funny. you meet a gigolo. you learn that you teach said gigolo's son. gigolo's son wants you to be his new second dad. ok sounds legit.
Alex is just like the fuck bois I've dealt with and been victim too in my own life and sometimes I forget he's not real and can't truly hate him for being so horrible to DG who doesn't know any better and doesn't know his self worth. In real life I'd hope DG's friend would some how find out about his and Alex's relationship and convince him to leave because Alex is the kind of guy who would emotionally destroy you and not care.
yeah i had the similar issue tho returned the favor in a way enough. It is really hard to swallow his actions when you think it in real life situation as you know this will probably reach a happy end if the author is not planning to torture us.
Really those kinds of people are easy to spot most of the time since they're too quick to trying to charm and pressuring you somehow. Best medicine is usually even if you're interested letting them know they're sh*t but at the moment you're just selfish enough to mind your own fun. Also it's nice to remind them you have no goals to be nice person. This sinks bad when they think they tricked you and they notice the only pride they left is to make you believe they're not. As long as you don't change your attitude you are winner. To me they tried to chase me (some still do), still got them blocked. But it's good to remember people don't change easily. Even if they're obsessed you dunno who's gonna be the next.
sorry for long novel of reply. just me thinking loud as well
also sorry for many mistakes. wrote too fast and 0 proofread
no it's fine. admittedly I am confused as to what you actually wrote but I think I got the gist of it. I just had to have a mini rant because while I really love the art work here, I've dealt with too many Alex's in my life to be sympathetic to their usually selfish and small man self esteem where if they're hurt they resort to hurting others far worse to feel in control. It's a real lack of maturity regardless of how "adult" like they are for their sexual and life experiences. Plus with how mangakas always make the badboy have a sob story, it just so annoying that people are never held accountable for their actions, something that despite is fictional is very very real in relationships between someone like DJ and Alex in real life.
I agree with you. What's worse is that alot of girls are reading this and thinking the behavior is okay. I had a friend who was almost destroyed by a fuckboi. She was just a warm mouth and a wallet to him, but she always went back.
honestly with the direction of this mangaka i was actually really annoyed by their return to the traditional yaoi trope in Chapter 8. Rapist gains pity and affection of the one they raped because they have a sob story that's doesn't exactly equate to why they turned out to be a shit human who inflicts harm on to others but eh they have to be a good guy afterall.... And the mangaka was doing so well too really fucking with the norms in the last chapters. sigh
Thank you. I know I'm not the only one who felt this way
Is there a chapter missing between 4 and 5 because literally then having sex escalated for no reason and virtually no explanation. They didn’t confirm last chapter if their outing was considered even a “date” like wtf just happened
glad they have their happy ending but honestly I did get annoyed a bit when Jaehee decided he could blame his cowardice on Yeonwoo towards Chapter 17-18. I mean you avidly avoided Yeonwoo, your friends, and your responsibilities so that nothing could move forward in your life that's completely on your hands. Plus you know how ignorant Yeonwoo is about interacting with others, while he wasn't completely honest he tried multiple times to talk to you which you ignored, so the whole issue could have been cleared up sooner had Jaehee not acted like your typical avoid all my responsibilities because life is hard character. At least Yeonwoo made more of an effort than you did, so blaming him is uncalled for.
