I think it's maybe because other red flags are more honest about being red flags. But this red flag is full of underhand tactics and manipulations, he hides the fact that he is red flag all the time, while other shiet MLs at least are quite loud about it - often even proud about it. That helps readers to really know they are red flags.
In away this ML is more like what major red flags are IRL, it's not loud and visible. While other ones are something that happens real, but it's a bit rarer and something that have higher chance to get punished.
This ML will going to get away from it, we don't even know all the ting he did - like many other people who do that stuff IRL - and that is it. No outside punishment by law or other people - but also no inside growth and learning new behavior.
WOW I couldn’t agree more actually. Man yes that’s exactly ittt ugh.
I suppose it’s because it’s too close to what could be reality,too…
It’s so hard finding green flag stories (that I haven’t read already) and
Tbh I have read other red flags, but somehow I can’t seem to like this one ML. He marks the mc without consent, manipulates him so he will sleep with him saying he will remove the mark (he put himself). Then mc goes to see a doctor and the doctor and ml are friends . The doctpr was curious to see who was his friend obsessed with, then me tells him someone has been marking him WITHOUT HIS CONSENT?? And the only thing the doctor does his calling his friend after that?? Not even informing mc who the creepy stalker actually is (of course they are friends). It’s overall disgusting. I tried to read without having it in mind but ughhh. (︶︿︶)＝凸 and i really liked the mc, he stands his ground mostly and works really hard. Really sweet. He is now loving the stalker ugh horrible
