Why do they always have to go for my favorite characters, like, can’t you make up some jerk who gets killed instead

Haha, ok! It just sounded confusing to me, since the best friend didn't get killed and (probably?) only had an accident and he's alive, while the actually kidnapped guy currently *appears* to be the cheating boyfriend, who seems to me precisely like that aforementioned "jerk" most of us wouldn't feel particularly sorry for :D
I honestly can't tell if they're all fucking idiots or they actually think fuck buddies between besties is a thing. I, for one, would not fuck my bestie for fun that's for sure, if I even had one...
