i love men with neck tattoos

Gunner literally raped Theo……..

First, this is not love triangle not everything is wetsand .second ,Gunner literally raped theo and shot at him.

Actually, I’ve never replied to any comments before but yours made me really uncomfortable. How can you appreciate a toxic relationship and try to make it looks like a healthy one? Gunner was the one that didn’t respect his promise that he made to Theo. It’s totally understandable that Theo doesn’t want to be in a relationship with someone tied with illegal stuff (plus, he was studying in a law school at the time so there was no way he would be fine with it). So Gunner is the only one to blame for not being in line with Theo’s boundaries. More importantly, he RAPED, TRICKED and SHOT Theo, wdym you like their relationship ??? I’m genuinely confused even tough I’m someone pretty open-minded that can understand hot takes. That’s not a hot take, that’s insanity.

Right cause let’s just all ignore the fact that I said “if the author had taken a different approach” as in if the author hadn’t made Gunner a character who rapes, kills and does other illegal stuff. Gosh it’s crazy how I make my words as clear as possible yet the replies are filled with people who don’t even bother to read the whole thing :(

Also can we NOT forget what genre we’re reading? Ofcourse I wouldn’t fucking justify rape but in this fantasy almost all authors make their Li’s start out bad and then they become good. Take low tide in twilight for an example and many other ones. The origin of species? Can’t think straight? Even monster in the mist. This story can literally have so many different approaches. One day the author can decide to make Dylan the bad guy and turn gunner into the good one. Again, I am NOT justifying rape— but let’s just take a breather and think clearly for a second at how these kind of stories always turn out

Are we reading the same manhwa or are you just dumb?

seems you have a fetish alright.

Buh it's not gonna happen like it or not.

If ya not happy about it hit your head against the wall

Maybe just maybe your sense will come back. Don't thank me ya welcome

Since the author didn't choose the approach you're so desperately mourning over, why not just let it go?

The author deliberately made Gunner a rapist to establish him as the villain, yet somehow you think it would've been a good idea for him and Theo to end up together? You even went as far as hoping Dylan would turn out to be a bad person just so Theo could go back to Gunner. What would even be the point of the manhwa then? Is Theo supposed to keep ending up with the people who hurt and traumatized him?

Wow, what a brilliant idea. Maybe you should write your own book.

If this happened in real life, who in their right mind would tell someone to get back together with their rapist? Apparently you would, because that logic makes absolutely no sense. You seriously need therapy.

You’re so fucking stupid that i feel bad for you

It’s just that I’ve been reading on this website for over 6 years and it’s always been the same story. Everytime it’s something involving gangs and drugs, rape almost ALWAYS happen and then the author suddenly gives the rapist some kind of character development and he becomes a good good.
I’m always expecting everything.

I literally said “if only the author has approached this differently.”
Why are we ignoring this specific thing that I’ve said and focusing on everything else
And as I’ve said in my other reply, I’ve been reading these kind of manhwas for over 6 years and it’s been always the same. I just always expect this so it never surprises me

Not gonna lie, you're right that a lot of gang or crime manhwas follow that pattern, where the rapist or toxic ML suddenly gets a redemption arc and somehow ends up with the MC. It's understandable why you'd expect that.

But this manhwa didn't go that route. Theo left Gunner because he was abusive, raped him, and was involved in illegal activities. Then he met Dylan, who's been nothing like Gunner. Dylan actually respects Theo, cares about him, and Theo genuinely likes him too.

So I don't get why you're wishing for Dylan to suddenly become a terrible person just so Theo can go back to his rapist ex. That isn't appreciating a different story—it's projecting other manhwas onto this one and hoping this one follows the same toxic formula. If the author chose to tell a different story, why not just let it be different instead of wishing for Theo to end up back with the person who hurt him?

Nobody is ignoring that part. The problem is what you said after it.

You didn't just say, "If only the author approached this differently." You also said you wished Dylan would turn out to be a bad person so Theo would end up with Gunner. That's what people are reacting to.

The author didn't approach it differently. They made Gunner a rapist and the villain. At that point, hoping Theo ends up back with his abuser completely undermines Theo's character growth and everything the story is trying to say.

And saying you've read these kinds of manhwas for six years doesn't really change that. Being used to toxic redemption arcs doesn't make this one of them, nor does it make wanting the victim to return to his rapist any less disturbing.
