As someone who has a lot of anxiety and tends to distance themself from others due to scenarios mostly made up in my head, i really feel for the mc. He went more drastic with it, but undoing the thought process of a whole childhood of being abandoned and feeling unloved is really hard to do. I think they'll only get better and better at communicating and both had a lot of growing up to do during this. Proud of them :)
