He's literally the worst. I get how he's feeling but if someone almost died fighting for t...

FR!! HE'S NOT THE ONLY WHO LOST A CHILD!! LIKE HOW CAN HE BE SO INCONSIDERATE??!!

Yall needa read this story again. Every time Riftan is angry, his anger is not towards Maxi. He is angry at himself. From the beginning he felt guilty that he made Maxi marry him, taking her out of the cozy life (he thinks) she had. His anger in the latest chapter isn't at Maxi. It's him, once again, hating himself. That's whole thing in his side of the story. He hates himself because he thinks he ruined Maxi's life by making her marry him.

I really doesnt matter who he's really mad at if he's taking it out on Maxi. You can like the manga and acknowledge that that man is not a good partner in a relationship. He's honestly a dangerous partner

And its still selfish behavior. He's still putting his own feelings, even feelings about himself, over her well-being. He does NOT care about her as a person only as his wife. Thats just how the author wrote him even if theres a reason

But when did he put his feelings over her well-being? Because I remember him fighting with Maxi multiple times trying to convince her to not join the war (cause it's dangerous). You think he's not happy she's alive? Mfker would've probably killed himself from guilt had Maxi died. Riftan does not have the emotional intelligence to hug and reassure Maxi in this moment. And Maxi also doesn't have the emotional intelligence to be able to think about what her recklessness makes other people feel. I don't think you understand the characters you're reading about in this story. Maxi does what she does because she wants to be useful to others regardless of her well-being. And Riftan does what he does because he's concerned for Maxi and feels like everything bad that happens is his fault for marrying her.

We can’t have read the same manga, if I’m to label anyone selfish I’ll give it to max she even acknowledged it herself and felt shame when talking to Idyllia confirming that she was being selfish, honestly out of the two Max posses more of a danger to him than vice versa, max behaves and thinks like an infant hence riftans infantilization to the point even princess agnes points it out, imagine having a partner with no regard for thier personal and well being follow you into war? (Ofcourse it’s all sensationalized because it’s a book but do you even understand how ridiculous that is in and of itself?) and honestly most her worrying and wanting to “help” and be “useful” just comes of as selfish and excessive of course due to her past and trauma, riftan is by no means a saint, but maxi is the most selfish person here so far , the female lead can’t be always right or pitiful or helpless all the time no matter what she does it’s a boring narrative.
