Awww isn't Shizuma such a lucky guy? He doesn't need to do anything. He has Minato, who has to teach Shizuma how to be a decent boyfriend. He doesn't need to set boundaries, Minato could suck it up anyways. The dude has a perfect boyfriend who he doesn't even have to gaslight. Minato's own trauma makes him gaslight himself into believing that his totally and perfectly justified concerns are actually unjustified. You're such a lucky guy Shizuma, you can hide all your wrong doings under the "Minato is insecure because of his trauma" rug.
That’s what I’ve been saying. Just because Shizuma was brave enough to take on Minato from the very beginning which I could not do for sure, doesn’t mean that has to be the only thing he brings to the table. Others are saying, we side with Minato because he’s trying as if Shizuma isn’t. Where is he even trying? All he does is talk sweet and somehow still make Minao fall for it. Shizuma knows about Minato’s trauma and insecurities but does nothing about it and does not change his attitude with his boss. He can’t help it because it’s work? Is he getting paid for running errands for his boss, indulging his boss’ quirks of social ineptness, sitting with his boss in a cafe outside of work hours while he’s running late to a prearranged reconciliation date, trying to get to know his boss on a more personal level while thinking in the back of his mind what lies and excuses to tell Minato later, going shopping with his boss, and bringing his boss to date night? Shizuma knows he has an absenteeism problem but does nothing to reflect on himself for it and is just relying on Minato being more understanding about it than his ex just because Minato is more broken as a person and is more attached to him who knows about Minato’s past and has stayed despite it all. He can’t help it again because it’s work? He really should hurry up and set up boundaries. It would help not only his relationship with Minato but also improve his work environment so his colleagues and boss at least respect his approved request for time off and it’s not like he’s the only person there in case of emergency and over-all be a start to improving his work-life balance. As a person, his job should be taken seriously but it should also not be his identity.
Agreed. Minato should break up with him because clearly, communication doesn't get through to Shizuma's head. Having a lover like Shizuma is exhausting. There's a line..how much of a pushover can you be? How many excuses do you have? How much does someone have to wait? BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SAY NO? Minato is the one putting actual effort here for the relationship. How dumb can Shizuma be? I'm praying for the breakup to happen because Shizuma obviously doesn't reflect on himself. I'm so tired Minato has to be the one to put up with him.
I really like the dynamics between the two but all the "pheromone this pheromon that" explanations make it seem like this story is written by an amateur who tries to act like a big shot. Good writers show, don't tell. This is a trademark of unskillful writing. We have such a green flag seme and a cute, funny uke. This story has a great potential of a fun ride. I hope the author improves themselves in the near future.
take your own advice, you yap a lot for no good reason
That's called constructive criticism. I didn't insult or anything. Why are you so butthurt?
sometimes I actually appreciate all this explaning in omegaverse because not every reader is well versed in how these things work out in these abo realities PLUS it even differs from manhwa to manhwa
Eiyoung is easily one of the cutest yaoi children ever, even cuter than Byul. He's definitely my number one and also my main reason to read Waterside Night.
I'm sure I know the Manga, but I forgot, where was Byul from again?
Love is an Illusion
Thank youuu
First, there were only regular alphas, omegas and betas. Then came the dominants and the recessives.
BUT!
It wasn't enough. We had to have THE alpha among the other alphas so now we have hyper dominants. Soon it wont be enough and we'll have the "amazing ultra supreme incredible" alpha.
Lmao
Lmao don't keep giving them more ideas
Hyper dominant alpha pro max
Thank you! I was thinking the same when I read it haha
He might just be able to look at people and get them pregnant who knows
...and it took him only 80 chapters. That's a clever boy :P
I may be wrong but i don't think the brother is a bad person. I think his hands are tied because of the shitty old man (SOM) so he's trying to do everything he can without SOM noticing. He seems to be waiting for the SOM to drop dead so he can actually take care of Dojun.
Can’t wait for the old man to die (▰˘◡˘▰)
Girls, you've been eating steamy BL's like cheap spaghetti but you blush for this?
I get you. I'm so with you on this :D Finally the straight smut we all deserve.
It is what I am.
i cant explain it
Exactly, readers on mangago read the most depraved yaoi possible here: rape, omegaverse, male preg, furries, age gaps etc. But a little bit of straight action, a little bit of titties and they explode lol.
Well, we cant help it, can we...?
Slow burns aren’t really a thing on this site so when you come across a good one what can you do except go crazy
What do you mean you never lied? All those things that you said, you said them to your HARAM, not Yijun. So they were all lies for Yijun.
Frrrr but ofc mc gotta be stupid here and ML is disgusting imo
Boy, if you stay he will eat you alive.
So you should stay. Let him eat that ass.
I get it, it's a complicated situation. The characters don't know what to do, they just can't make up their minds. But the real problem is the author. They really don't know what they're doing and they seem to have no idea where the story is going... And that is why, folks, we as readers feel like we're left in a boat on the sea and we don't have a compass.
I think part of the problem in this case is serialization. In the manga industry there's a push to always put out chapters if something is popular enough and stop when it stops being popular. So authors start out strong with a solid story in mind, but as they get pressured to keep the story going, they lose the opportunity to end it in a concise and satisfying way and just petter out at the end.
