i love seth ( :( i hope he gets a back story) and i wanted them to end up together too but look at it from henry's pov as well.. guy had abandonment issues since he was a kid then here comes sam whom he's so close with to the point where sam's parents and siblings were his family too. that abandonment issues led him to his cynical thinking/view of love which gave way for his choices when it came to sam (choosing not to say anything even when he knew sam was in love with him too, etc. etc.). not to mention his guilt after that accident with sam - guilt because he was selfish (not wanting sam to leave him). sam quit baseball which made the guilt even worse because henry knows sam loved baseball (remember, he doesn't know sam only liked baseball because of him).
the story showed us WHY he did things like that. plus henry even admitted it to himself that he's the one who's been thinking like a kid all this time - with seth and with sam. i think henry's thoughts and actions were human (in terms of being a slave to emotions?) and it made sense to me. tbh i got angry at him esp at that chapter when sam said he knew sam was in love with him (feeling like will when he said theyre really dragging this out) but looking back + their discussion after that, it made sense.
throughout, henry showed us the painful reality of being scared to love & the consequences of that fear and how to get over that fear.
