Pretty surprised to see the comments on Lover Boy because to me it's still a great story. Yes the plot is heavy with miscommunication, ridiculously frustrating characters and the toxicity of how Jaeha is a literal walking, breathing red light during the story but has anyone wondered whether it's actually on purpose? If it hasn't hit, it is actually pretty intentional because it's a huge conflict of the story? I don't think at any point in the story that toxicity was portrayed positively: That Jaeha is clearly emotionally unavailable and that their relationship is very one-sided.
I've read enough BLs where the red flags are treated as the 'oh well that happened but not like it was that bad' but this is the one that hasn't done that. The relationship is meant to be intentionally unhealthy at the start so please hold on because the development of the characters is really nice. I'm so glad that it isn't rushed just for the sake of completing the story like so many other BLs.
Personally, a huge hook for me is conflict and I don't really see the point (in these type of stories at least )if a extremely internally conflicted character could just say whatever was on their mind. Jaeha being irrational, self critical and selfish due to his experiences is a great characterization of some very human aspects, that he isn't the typical MC that can power through their sufferings and stick closely to their moral compass. He is anything but that, someone who succumbs and prioritises himself more than anything. Human.
The eventual portrayal of his growth out from the safety that his rigid wiring of irrationality and selfishness gave him, is one form of his character development that I enjoy re-reading over and over. Imo Jaeha is a well written character and it rubs me the wrong way that a lot of people will drop it without giving him a chance.
Yes this had to be this lengthy and to anyone who gave this story and my obnoxious essay a chance, happy reading and sit tight because it's one hell of a emotional rollercoaster :)
I think him and her are gonna work at the same cafe.Pretty sure the women is gonna help telling her off and etc.Love the cafe lady!
I think when they meant forcing trauma they meant it was honestly too early for a person to open up like that.Good amount of people would honestly feel uncomfortable and go ummmm???? But she victim blame again which idk why the author is doing that for and making the fl lead a dick head
While her actions were harsh and she shouldn’t say those stuff at all.I know she’s gonna get a lot of improvement and I’m rooting for her character.But in highschool even in real life kids don’t grow up with sexual knowledge.I know couple people that didn’t know about rape/sexual assault.While people in the comments can get upset.You guys are doing too much tbh.Also a lot even men and women mostly men think that men can’t get rape/sexually harass.But again I can’t wait too see character Growth.

I had to open back my account (I made this one like 2 years ago, but never use it coz i'm a lazy one), so I can say how tired I am with this whole situation. Guys, the author spoke, they don't wanna the uploads anymore, so we gotta respect them, because at the end of the day it's their hardwork and probably their way of income, BUUUUUT I'm hella tired of people on social media (specially on T*kT*k) posting the name of this site. I've been here for a very long time (talking about hella lots and lots of years) and thanks to that I've met a lot of good artwork that fortunally I've been able to support legally.
As an artist myself I know how hard is the earning of money, but as a consumer as well I know the struggle of not having the economy sometimes to buy it. Thanks to these sites, I met amazing works and after reading them I'm way more excited to consume it legally (even though I've already read it). My point is: How can I spend a lot of money if I don't know I'm gonna really enjoy it?
I read a comic on this site---> I like it a lot----> I buy all of the chapters anyway so I can support the author of the work I enjoyed so much.
I'm aware MY economy's stable and I can live from what I love to do, and buy every chapter or merch that I want, but NOT everyone's in the same position, so maybe their way of supporting the author is acquire like 2 or 3 chapters per month, and that's fine as well.
If you do have the economy: BUY THE CHAPTERS! even if you buy even like 1 or 2 per month, don't forget authors actually eat and have to pay lot of taxes lol. If you don't have the economy, ok go ahead, keep reading on illegal sites (anyway, nobody's gonna stop you), but if you do enjoy the work, at least save a little bit of money so you can show the author how much you love the work and subscribe to their patreon, buy at least some merch or some episodes.
PIRACY's not always black and white/good or bad, because we have all consume it at some point of our lives, some even without knowing. But let's remember; ART IS NOT A NECESITY, IT IS A LUXURY at the end of the day.
To find the balance you have to be empathetic with all the scenarios. People sometimes don't have money, and they wanna forget about an awful day with artworks that make them happy. But for artists i'ts not a hobby, it's their purchasing power, and it's tiring and unfair some people don't even wanna spend money on what you put your time, health and hard work every single day. (And L*zh*n takes a high percentage of what you receibe per chapter, so in the end you get almost nothing).
If the author don't want their work here anymore, let's respect their decision and do it without being rude to anyone. There are plenty of free works on legal platforms, or you can keep reading on sites like this, as I said before; your choice.
Also: Plz T*kT*kers stop spreading the site, let people search on their own.
Ya all, I have some news for you guys. Admins are turning off comment sections one by one. Hold your tits and be quite, stop messing around and read your manga/hwa/huas . Creators are pointing on this websites especially on comment section so be careful what you are typing out of anger. It is being recorded, at least I have been informed abt that. Cheers
