marcy

i hope he will not end up with any of these asshole, i hope they regret everything

I'll try to keep it vague in case you don't want spoilers but she's been in her character development era for quite some time. There's been a lot of drama but she's been taking action and actively trying to get stronger in all aspects of her life. The communication between the couple has improved (SPOILER ALERT) and Riftan finally knows about how her family really treated her. But now there's other issues they need to work on. As of now, Riftan is the one that needs to work on himself.

Maxie's character has really come a long way. She's a badass...Riftan, however, has sadly regressed overall as a character. Still worth reading though

I’m ok with spoilers. What did the husband do? Why is he regressed?

Why does the husband need to work on himself? Spoilers are fine

Honestly. Riftan is too possessive and overprotective. He ignores Maxie's wishes all the time for what he thinks she needs without listening to her. He can be borderline cruel to her(verbally) sometimes whenever she goes against him and then does the whole toxic silent treatment thing. Maxie has come a long way, shes strong, powerful, resilient, smart and courageous and she always considers Riftans feelings first. Wheras Riftan, really only considers his feelings, like he loves Maxie but he underestimates her and will disregard/disrespect her if her wishes dont align with his wishes. He has a kinda sad backstory so I am not saying he doesnt have a reason for being the way he is but he better hit some character development SOON or the entire fan base is just gonna write him off as a lost cause.

He's too insecure about his humble status and the fact that he's not noble born. Which makes him blindsided when it comes to understanding why Maxi doesn't really care about those things which makes their communication hit a wall every time. Also he idolizes Maxi to the point where he doesn't see the real her. He's the one creating a wall between them.
