that is exactly wht I think. I was reading comments and everyone takes mc side. No one saying anything about Richard , I truly wish that Richard and Pascal would end up together.. at least if they had talked. Now Richard is all alone and even blinf he has lost everything he loved. While Pascal is with another guy. 2nd Richard ik he is a good man.but still he is a replacement.. Will Pascal ever realize it.. and what will happen to 1 Richard now? Is be gonna be alone forever?
The intent doesn't excuse the actions. His actions hurt Pascal and people around him. and the worst thing here is his intent itself wasn't just 'he wanted to be with Pascal', he wanted to be the ONLY one he could turn to. That's obsession and it was hurting the mc in many ways. losing his sense of himself and his art being the main thing. Here the harm he caused to Pascal matters, especially when he was doing it knowingly and repeatedly. If a relationship cost someone their identity or wellbeing, walking away is a valid and a healthy response. (please stop giving villain ahh men chances)

I hate the ending cause it felt like he just replaced richard(dark blue eyes) to the new richard. not only that he left him hanging alone and yes i get that his traumatized but for him to leave someone who he loved and the fact that person have helped through everything and yes i get that what richard(dark blue) did to other people was bad but for him to leave him like that not even saying a word or closure or even atleast clearing up the misunderstandment between them but no instead he ran and the fact he said in the end "i don't have to keep running anymore" wdym don't have to keep running anymore bruh you literally just ran away from him and not avoid him and the fact that you fell inlove with someone who had the same face as him like bro nawh the audacity
