Please read chapter 8. Also, don’t forget that MC and ML are also friends. I agree with you though that the MC is building a healthy distance from his current situation but chapter 8 just kinda contradicts the purpose of it, maybe can be brushed off as a drunken mistake but still, he’s stacking up the events he needs to forget while distancing himself from the current situation. I’ve read bl plots better than this, I’ve also read worse ones BUT this is just such a push and pull but still tolerable.
I’d say maybe people should give this a chance because it seems like the author is kinda new to storytelling and can improve. Besides, this only has 8 chapters as of now.
Oh btw, I’m voicing out my opinions just like how you voiced out yours. I don’t wanna fight ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
Hahaha for sure nw. I love sharing opinions with people, and I love being wrong.
In my opinion tho, I dont see the ML and the MC'S relationship as friends. They "labelled" themselves as friends but they both don't see each other as friends. MC will not treat the friend the same way as the ML, they're totally different to the MC. Just responding to the ch. 8 reaction, u never blame the drunk person for their actions. If they're drunk, there's no consent. Yes he made the first move, but that's his automatic reaction seeing the person he likes infront of him. ML shouldn't be bringing him in a love hotel. That's technically r*pe. MC says he wants to separate but Ofcourse he still likes him, his feelings didn't evaporate. Hence why he wants and needs that distance. Happy Sharing!
I think it's the way he said "I would date a man if it's you" that triggered him. Plus he said that the toxic ML is the same? Ur the same as him then!
Also, he is his friend, most people don't date friends. Some people said that MC going to the military is him running away, I think he is building a healthy distance from his current situation. We should appreciate his proactive efforts rather than staying and allowing the situation to eat him up. Good for him. I hope he come back with a healthier mindset (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
