comments pissing me off so much istgg wasn't og eris also crying at some point??? she's "pitiful" to yall but helena is "useless"?
right?? and after living as a commoner she was probably so happy to receive a dress as a gift and wore it happily. only to see that its the same dress which was TAILORED FOR HIS FIANCE??
WHAT IS SHE, JUST AN OBJECT FOR HIM TO USE AGAINST ERIS TO GET HER JEALOUS ?? if he really loved her like he says he does, he would go after her. ugh im so mad at the prince and all the trash men around helena.
i agree. I see nothing bad in her crying because she was alone and wasn't looking to manipulate people those were her honest feelings. Also as you said in her situation its understandable that she will cry.
Tip for people who hate on Helena because Eris is FL: just bc someone is main character doesnt mean that they are always right and this is common thing in literature. Characters are people and they might misunderstand or lie to themselves and we see situation from their perspective but we shouldnt forget to look from our perspective and accept that our FL can be wrong.
Right and we all know, they are both human (even if fictional), so we should treat them both like that. It is exactly like you said, the main character is seen as special and everyone who seems to be disturbing their happiness is deemed as 'bad'. But it's not like the main character is always in the right because of that, or that the other characters are wrong. And even if one is the right, it's still normal to make mistakes.
It just seems that people like to vent all bad feelings on those fictional characters, which I can understand and relate to, but it just ends in reading some real hate and harsh comments everywhere.
