Unpopular opinion, I think FL and ex could've worked it out in another timeline IF AND ONLY IF the ex sorted his issues with women and makeup. You're telling me 6 years, engaged, and they still have no idea about each other's family dynamics and how they turned out the way they are?
Tho another issue with the ex is his own abusive behaviour, verbally and physically. Throwing her out at night? Being so critical? Controlling? That's an insant no. Then again, I feel like had he really sorted himself out and be more open to where his hatred comes from, there could be a good character development.
Another issue is with pacing. ML has a strong personality and sense of self. He knows what he wants and he's very determined. It's great, because it make his character and his crossdressing interest stronger, but I feel like he's imposing too much on FL.
I think FL needs a break from a relationship period. It's really too soon, especially when she has so many things to do FOR HERSELF. I think a little time apart from all this drama should do her some good.
While I agree on ML's part that we shouldn't rely too much on what other people may think, it's still so rash to have FL jump into a whole new relationship when she just broke it off with her ex of 6 years who is well-acquainted with her family and social circle?!?! Too much personality can also be damaging.
Anyway, I'll see how this goes. I think the pacing is too fast, but maybe it'll redeem itself. Maybe the ex gets worse, maybe it'll turn a 180 or something.
I love the artstyle!! They draw Courtney so well, she looks very mature and regal... She even feels like an empress sometimes. Very fitting for the vibe imo
