what is up with you guys and groveling? I fear you guys aren’t used to real-world scenarios taking place in fiction, because neither of them were bad people, they parted on bad terms, and they reconnected. It’s lackluster but it’s healthy, and I like the trope of absence making a heart grow fonder. Why would you want to see a regular person grovel to make amends for something so tame? they were literally teenagers experiencing young and fickle love, demanding chase arcs and misery out of kids still in high school is ridiculous, and media literacy genuinely has to be at an all time low right now

    Since mine was the lastest one talking about "groveling" I'm assuming I'm in the demographic of people ur talking about too. I'm gonna admit at that time I wasn't in my best mental state when I read and commented here. I agree with all of your points, all of it, the one with the groveling and also the one with the fact he's not a bad person, he's just a teenager going through it. I guess at that time what I felt was lacking, was the "show" part. They indeed told us how he waited for 4 yrs and stuff, I fully understand that, I just wished that we saw a lil bit of it tbh. But who knows, if I reread this again my feelings towards it might have already changed

    OH MY GOD. THANK YOU. I'm genuinely tired of the chasing arc BS. BL readers supposedly want different stories but want everything to got the same way lmfao.
