Guys he isn't stupid he's just friendly. Do you really expect him to cut himself off from all his relationships and distance himself from everyone he knows because it makes amane jealous? Even more so amane wouldn't actually like it if rindo didn't talk to anyone but amane because he knows rindo loves to have and make friends and wouldn't want to deprive him of that. Also amane has come to trust rindo enough since that angst arc to know rindo wouldn't cheat on him. They literally are so understanding of eachother don't get angry at rindo
Amane and Yanagi himself knows how Yanagi feels towards Rindo like... It's not Rindo fault but I think Rindo need to set boundaries with people who sees him in that light. Rindo know what Yanagi feels towards him or at least there's this ambiguity with Yanagi so he shouldn't have decided to be all alone with Yanagi just like that...
Just imagine your lover spending time alone with someone who both of you know that this someone have ambiguous feelings for your partner.
I don't really want to put Amane in that spot but Amane is not very stable mentally yet and he can have a break down easily from betrayal/abandon/etc. For me... I'm not expecting Rindo to cut off everyone. I expect Rindo to have a clear view on his boundaries mostly because he is in a relationship where boundaries are important for his relationship to work like with Amane. Rindo has to be careful with the way he keeps putting himself in a situation where other people could take advantage of him or his friendliness as you said.
You can be friendly but still setting clear boundaries between yourself and the others in a respectful manner. Such as "don't be alone with someone who has ambiguous feelings for you". It's not cutting off Yanagi but being aware that you're in a relationship that needs clear boundaries. That's what I would expect from Rindo mostly after all the previous drama they went through (Rindo and Amane) because of this particular reason that is Rindo can't set clear boundaries in any of his relationship.
The way it keeps happening from Rindo is very concerning even more if he wants to stay with someone like Amane.
(NB : I'm sorry for the long reply)
I do agree Rindo has to be mindful because of Amanes mental health but he's a bit slow. Yanagi has never told Rindo that he likes him just that he wanted to give him a tattoo and when Yanagi promised with Rindo that he wouldn't give him one unless Rindo wanted one, for Rindo anyway the whole matter was over. Anywhere, Yanagi has hung out with Rindo multiple times before this but the only reason people are caring about it so much now is that we saw the behind the scenes where Yanagi's wife was promising to give him Rindo. Which yanagi didn't want by the way. It's just now 100% confirmed that Yanagi likes Rindo but although amane knows I don't think Rindo does
You have a point here. The reader knows what's happening behind the scene so it may automatically lead readers to think of it as obvious.
Just some quick question because it's been a long time since I read My Perverted Stalker... Did Yanagi and Rindo were ever left all alone after the attempt of Yanagi to give Rindo a tattoo ? Doesn't Yanagi said to Rindo he ever were interested in him that's why he attempt to give Rindo a tattoo so does it not count as Yanagi having feelings for Rindo?
I don't remember seeing Yanagi and Rindo all alone except when Amane asked for a favor to Yanagi. That's why it felt right mostly but seeing them all alone now after their history which Rindo isn't comfortable about (if I remember correctly), it doesn't feel right for me. Rindo is also aware how Amane is uncomfortable and anxious about Yanagi so I feel like Rindo shouldn't have agreed that easily except if Rindo wasn't aware that Yanagi and him would be left all alone.
So even without Yanagi and his wife's pov I am sure I would feel the same way either way.
In the end I think it's a bit careless and irresponsible for Nora San to let alone Yanagi and Rindo when he, himself, knows what happened between them.
I don't remember exactly if Yanagi's exact word were that he was 'interested' in Rindo but I'm sure that could be interpreted by Rindo as he was interested in tattooing him.
There was a scene where Rindo and Yanagi went shopping together without amane if you want an example of them together without amane being there
Thank you for your answer ! I don't remember well so it helps me a lot! I tried to remember one or two things and I think it's Nora who explains it to Rindo because Yanagi also gave him a tattoo. Nora explained that Yanagi was also interested in Nora (?) So he gave him a tattoo.
But yeah I mean... It can be interpreted that way too. Yanagi doesn't really show his motives which makes him a mysterious character.
Anyway thank you for your kind answer!
he's totally loopy I love him
