Cute but Sad

It was cute but at the same time I found it a bit sad.

I understand Karl while I also don’t understand him.

Let me explain, I’ve been raised in a family where being gay is not an issue at all, as long as you’re happy, they couldn’t care less. So I can’t really relate to his struggle of telling the world how he feel. However, I know the world is not all rosy and while I can’t relate, I can understand and see his struggling.

Realising you are gay and coming out in front of everyone is definitely not an easy thing to do. Especially when the world is full of persons who won’t and don’t want to understand you.

But at the same time, I totally get how Vlad must feel. How he is ready to offer the world to the person he loves and that person just want to keep him hidden in the closet. I would be heartbroken by that too.

In fact, I get both of their feelings. They are both valid and that’s what is making it sad.

However, despite that, I think it’s a very nice series. No lies, no superfluous elements, no unnecessary drama. Just two guys who fell in love with each other while not being ready for it.
