Both are at fault. The MC hated how clingy, attentive, and caring the ML was, all because of an assumption he built up in his own head. Seven years have passed, and a lot can change in that time, uet, he never bothered to actually talk things through withhis lover. Instead, he just let himself dwell on his own thoughts. Honestly, he basically hates everything the ML does. He is fully aware of the ML’s situation, including his awful father and the trauma that came with it. Yet, despite knowing that all the ML ever wanted was a genuine smile from him. Also, the MC CHOSE TO STAY because he loves him and can't bear to let him go. He was the one who let himself stsy in that situation.
The ML is also in the wrong because he let his trauma control their relationship way too much, likely resorting to trauma dumping and similar behaviors. Driven by his own fears, he uses words that deeply hurt his lover. Giving him the benefit of the doubt, it’s understandable why he behaves this way, but it is still no excuse. His projection, wanting his lover to be an Omega because his father was obsessed with Betas, combined with the old man constantly breathing down his neck because of his father's actions, makes his actions clear. As someone whose profession is inclines in the medical field, he is clearly deeply affected psychologically, which explains his inappropriate coping mechanisms. Despite this, he CHOSE TO RECIPROCATE the MC's feelings when he could have simply rejected him and explained that he wanted to protect and treasure their friendship. After all, what is there left to fear when they already managed to mend things after cutting each other off once before?
They really are a match made in heaven. But seriously, just talk to each other, my goodness!
You guys really shouldn't blame one person only.
