Choosing to add flirting in the scenario teacher & student is absolutely vile no matter the "true age" and all such garbage
Man, that blond hair is a tragedy. He looks so much better in black
Oh my god this is the holy grail of ragebait. Such a powerful piece, makes me me slam my fists on the table and try to scratch my eyes out but also laugh like a lunatic and also just sit there with a vacant stare. Truly not
I've got to say I'm not loving how they change size and morph into wierd body proportions in the last season but I'll forgive it because of the novelty experience that this manhwa provided. 9.5/10 would read again, but damn, Doha, stop with the pressuring and guilt tripping, seriously annoying
Those "intimate" scenes need trigger warnings much more than the scenes with gore.
For the oh-so-mature and grown-up gentlepeople in the comments, I am truly happy for all the welcoming and understanding queer communities you seem to refer to and be a part of. Truly. Now, let us examine the actual case at hand and not your anecdotal evidence from your own lives. A person introduces sb to their hopefully-future-partner as a friend and never clarifies the true extent of their relations (lies), that sb also only describes himself as a friend (lies), after which the main character inadvertantly learns that he was the only fool unaware of the situation they were all in. The person that was supposedly interested in him lied to him, kept key information hidden instead of explaining it and getting a clear start. It is nothing but suspicious. If you've ever seen people on the internet ask for help or advice after learning that their partner has been spending time with a "friend" (including one on one meetings) and just so happened to fail to mention that they had slept with each other, the opinion of the overwhelming majority in such situations is that the partner is not a good person. If you keep in touch with your former lovers or fwbs, it doesn't actually make you any better than people who prefer to cut contact. You are just different. We were very clearly shown multiple times that the main character was a romantic that believed he would spend his life with one person, that never had an inclination to have sex-friends, and valued all of the "firsts" and unique experiences he shared with his partner. It is painfully obvious that for such a person it is in fact a big deal if sb they are involved with purposefully withholds such information. It is not immature in the slightest, it is a breach of trust. There are many people like the MC, like me, who put more emotional value on intimate relations because we don't really see them as something outside of some kind of established relationships or something that doesn't mean anything. It is okay if you are different, but if you know your partner in and out and then choose to deceive them about something so important to them instead of disclosing it, you are simply a bad person.
Honestly, I didn't like the story in general. I found it tepid at best. For a situation in which the ML proclaimed "I am going to make you like me/convince you", it's actually the MC that did all of the heavy lifting. He faced the unknown, had to deal with a looming scary version of the future where he looses his closest and dearest friend, came to terms with reality in which he has been nothing but honest for a decade while his friend actually barely told him anything, and most importantly ruminated himself into falling in love. If you really think about it, has the ML actually made an effort and done something tangible? The MC developed his feelings after acknowledging that 1) well, his friend has been in love with him for so long 2) his friend always stuck close to him 3) maybe they really have been too close for comfort and it ruined all his other relationships 4) there's really no other remotely positive outcome for him in this situation 5) he has become somewhat possessive of the ML, most likely because of their lack of boundaries (which, although unhealthy, can happen between friends and family members, people don't necessarily have to be in love for that to occur) 6) the ML's tall and kinda cute. I accept the outcome presented by the author, but let's just say I remain unconvinced. Additional minus points for the refusal to let the MC top despite the MLs awareness of the fact that his friend is used to something completely different (addressed in the first half of the webtoon).
They weren't fwb when he was introducing him? They were only friends so he was not lying
Also if sm1 makes you that insecure abt being friends with their exes then break up with them, there's no trust in your relationship
Finished it today and agree with uuuu .. i didn’t feel good about ml because of the same reasons.. and introducing your old buddy to your lover and continuing being friends with them is sooo wrong and disrespectful..
and yes ml didn’t do anything at all.. he just sticked to mc and was intimate and that was all his ,,i will try my best” no talking no improving.. kinda sucked
Are you being like this on purpose? If you're friends with your ex, just say it. That's the main point I'm trying to make.
"There are many people like the MC, like me, who put more emotional value on intimate relations because we don't really see them as something outside of some kind of established relationships or something that doesn't mean anything"
if you feel bad that your partner is friends with their ex, it means you don't trust them, so, it's better to break up
But he was literally right not to trust him! Because he lied and said the guy was his friend and never mentioned it was his ex! Is it really that difficult to understand the concept of being honest and transparent?
It wasn't his ex? And he was his friend there's no lie there?
You’re missing a crucial detail: the MC literally caught them kissing in the very first conflict. From that point on, their dynamic was established, and the MC already knew there was history between them.
The ML and the FWB have made it 100% clear that there are zero romantic feelings on either side.
The conflict isn't about deception, it's the MC overthinking, feeling insecure/jealous, having to confront that reality because he realized he didn't know every single detail about his long-time friend, leading him to act evasive out of jealousy instead of talking it out
Wow, this really felt like observing a part of someone's life rather than a typical romance with certain steps to reach the end-goal. Truly a story where things happen to people, people make decision, and life goes on. It's been a while since I've seen a webtoon where characters are actually multifaceted, certainly a welcome change.
"Home" and literally half of the webtoon revolves around stalking, home invasion, invasion of privacy, SA, etc.
Damn that last chapter had to ruin the perception for me. Let people do what they like and what they enjoy and stop 'slamming' for a goddamn moment
