There is no way in hell we have been robbed of college life , adult life and children I can’t T-T

I think a lot of people are confusing explaining someone’s behavior with excusing it. What federic did was wrong. Publicly flirting with other women especially the wives of his own soldiers, humiliated Kiran and made him the target of ridicule. From both a fake relationship and political standpoint, it was a terrible thing to do.But the recent chapters give important context Frederic wasn’t acting out because he simply didn’t care about Kiran throughout the story he’s shown jealousy, possessiveness, and feelings he constantly tries to suppress. He didn’t even understand why he was reacting the way he was. Now we know that he has been through some sort of sexual trauma and it has completely changed how he views intimacy with men. His anger on the wedding night, his avoidance of physical affection, and his constant push and pull with Kiran all make a lot more sense trauma doesn’t justify hurting other people but it does explain why someone can sabotage the very person they love. Federic’s biggest enemy is the trauma and self hatred he has been carrying for years.
I also wanna say everyone has their own limit to what they are willing to forgive and kiran had to understand that a lot of his anger towards Federic in that moment was from his own feelings for him plus kiran sees who Federic really is and he is allowed to forgive him.
