Pride Episode 8 Reactions
You gotta FIGHT for what you want in this life. Nobody understands this better than our hero so why ... WHYYY would he let go so easily?! Why won't he fight for his love? The thing he wants most in his life and he lets pride and most of all FEAR of rejection and abandonment hold him back from getting it.
Aki, as a woman I understand her feelings and that she has her own insecurities. At the same time, I'm a bit confused by her because Halu has already told her he loves her. Why then would she hesitate? I guess after going through what she went through with the ex, what she needs more than anything is ACTION not words. But Halu is too full of pride and fear to really SHOW her that he loves her.
I wish she would have fought too. She knows that outside of hockey Halu is very insecure about his place in the world. With a man so emotionally scarred you're forced to make the first move, but poor thing she's so sweet and unworldly ... truly a woman from the last century ... that she doesn't recognize the telltale signs Halu sends her. They're both waiting on each other to be the first to confess.
The only problem for Aki is that Halu isn't yet emotionally mature enough to give her what she needs, and after being burned so badly by the ex, neither is she. Sigh. They're at an impasse and neither is brave enough to take the first step to see what awaits around the corner.
Frustration abounds people, frustration abounds! My blood pressure has gone up 3 notches since I started watching Asian dramas. I swear. And there's no relief in sight!
