Operation Love Episode 10

finally chasing down the end!

A good point came up in this episode. Rei and Ken know how to argue with each other. They've done it for years. Rei and Tada-san have never argued. I find that if I'm able to disagree with someone safely then I'm a lot closer to them. I have a good friend who I can argue with and get genuinely mad at and he gets mad at me, but I never worry about him walking away from our friendship. We've known each other for 6 years and I've gotten so seriously steamed at him before, but it's never ruined anything or put our relationship at risk. There's a lot of trust there. I see the same with Rei and Ken, but Rei is not the same person with Tada-san that she is with Ken. She can't be as honest with Tada-san, and she never lets herself be mean or unlovely the way she can with Ken. That's why the relationship with Tada-san can't work, no matter how much I like him. Because he is a good guy, just not right for her. I do find it hilarious how long Ken will wait. I mean, literally, until she's out the door, before chasing after her. I swear he watched her for like two minutes straight before moving!
