Riftan, that is not the ultimatum you think it is, lmao... If you talk like a psycho controlling husband and then say "I'll forget about you if you leave me", then that makes leaving you a HELL of a lot easier and more appealing...
He's far too immature, he leaves no room for any opinion or emotion that doesn't come from him or agree with him. I honestly don't see how he'd be any suitable kind of partner until he learns to be better. The world doesn't revolve around him.
While I understand that he probably wouldn't have taken it well, I do wish she had at least clued Riftan in to what was going to happen... it's a horrible thing to just drop on someone right then and there with everyone else that your other half has chosen a path that will keep you separated for at least 4 years. A NORMAL person would likely be floored, but you know a dude like that will react so much worse...
i think its because maxi knew if riftan had known even the slightest bit beforehand he would never agree to it. for the plan to work, she needed him to be clueless. as horrible as it is, riftan also constantly kept maxi in the dark about the court and other stuff. had maxi didnt confront him, he would never told her too.









this poor boy is on the verge of prolapse and it's kinda taking me out lmao
