personally, no… one of my exes did this for me and i just found it cute! i didn’t even realize it could be attributed to their neurodivergence until you mentioned it for dohu. well for what it’s worth, they told me about it unlike seo just finding it out of nowhere, so i guess that could make a difference. i’d argue it’s also because he has trust issues though LMAO
I guess because I’m also a writer myself I can understand Dohu..though I do think it would’ve been better if he told him straight up at first, that way the impact would’ve been less..but who knows, maybe it would’ve turned out the same way considering Juheon’s past. I do get why Juheon is upset tho. Like you’ve been sincere to this person all the time and then you find out that they initially got close to you only to use you as a reference? Was anything real at that point? It does give way for suspicion. I hope they make up soon tho! And Juheon realises that Dohu has loved him for all these years
Honestly idk if this is really about what Dohu did or about Juheon's family threatening.
I feel like this an appropriate time to ask: READERS, IS KEEPING A DOCUMENT ABOUT YOU A DEAL-BREAKER?
In my opinion, knowing what I knew about Dohu, I wouldn't actually feel weird about it. However, I'm also a writer (mostly fanfic), so I never really found what Dohu did to be all that strange? His major is script-writing, he's a theatre kid and considering his diagnosis, I thought it was all valid.
Yes, I'm viewing this through the lense of the reader but I found myself realising that I'd more or less do same thing as Dohu did, except for the fact my memory is pretty good so the document stuff isn't needed.
Did Seo even know he's a novel writer??? I swear they covered it in S1 but again it's makes the breaking point even weirder? I'm pretty sure anyone with any level of interest in the arts would tell you that real life is a pretty good reference for the fictional world, so again I thought that the break-up would talk about his family forcing them to break up.
HOWEVER, I can also see where Seo is coming from, imagine dating someone for months and they never tell you about a document that had all your interests, basic information, and possible observations. Not long after your evil aunt told you nobody would love you for who you are. Shit would suck emotionally ngl. Finally letting your guard down on for it to be documented, and it's the first thing you see when you open your partner's computer screen...
But again, again y'all have been dating for months at least, shouldn't you know your partner's side hustle? Like CMON, it never came up ONCE??? Like idk, "Hey I work at a café, hbu bbg (let me hit)?" "Oh I'm an author/ghost writer for a few books that's all (sure why not)"
Maybe I need to sleep, I'm college rn, it's 3am and my exams are beating my ass stupid into making this post, I'M PROBABLY WRONG IGNORE THIS
