I get how people could think it "worked" out in the end and they're all happy so yay whats the problem-- but god this was 100% predatory. It's an adult completely taking advantage of an inexperienced, underage person. He's piling his own insecurity and lack of accountability or maturity to handle committed relationships on a young guy. It's completely predatory behavior. A good ending is the least of my worries because ML is pathetic. It's hard to be happy about it even if it ended "well".
