Everytime I read romance, whether straight gay whatever, I get so tired of MCs never standing up for themselves or getting themselves out of toxic situations. Like sure they're going to end up together but that dumb dumb needs to be knocked down a peg and not get forgiven just bc they're the lead romantic interest. They need to understand they fucked up and sincerely apologize, preferably with some groveling.
