Ch. 74 freaking broke my heart. I feel so angry for him AND IM ANGRY AT HIS FRIEND. He completely cut him off, not responding to his past texts until now. My poor baby…
This is like readers bias at its finest. People have hectic lives, you can't drop everything at the drop of a hat for one friend.
His friend is literally the most understanding person here because I might have dropped his ass years ago. Especially after the stunt he pulled this time, cheating on my other friend. That's not ok.
My comment is directly focused on the events following Ch. 74, where we are given insight on their college years. A friend does not need to drop everything to support the other but to suddenly go no contact with them is a heartbreaking experience. That is why I expressed my frustration towards the MC’s friend, who suddenly went no contact, despite the MC taking the initiative to reach out
With that being said, I made a past comment regarding the current actions of the MC. Though we know why he acts this way (his trauma and insecurities), he is responsible for all the pain he has inflicted to both himself and those around him. In the current timeline, yes, I agree that his friend is the most understanding and patient of anyone, having stuck with him for all these years. There is indeed not a lot of people who would stick around, yourself and myself included
I’m both so sad and frustrated at Woojin (MC). He is hard wired to accept abuse and his trauma forces him into a self sabotaging cycle of only accepting abusive relationships and situations. He believes he is only deserving of this bc of his innate fear of being alone and abandoned. AT THE SAME TIME, Woojin is still at fault for his own actions - of the hurt he caused to both himself and, especially, on others.
Traumatized people always hurt (purposely or not) the people around them if they’re not actively working on healing from their trauma.
c.73. breaks my heart for Woojin bc his first introduction to “romantic” love and sexual relations is literally just more trauma. I hate his first bf and I’m saying that with my WHOLE CHEST.
We know the outcome but it doesn’t stop me from being stressed
