Can I know which series?? I agree with you by the way
BB actually has one of the healthiest and best comment sections here in MDL.
Not Me and BB are both amazing in their own way. BB is still the better series for me, but I think that’s always subjective.
But again, BB comment section in fact surprised me by just how lively, healthy and engaging it is. We may have some disagreements, but it’s normal, just as it has happened here too.

All episodes showed very healthy growth over the weekend!
I'm positive for a happy ending too! Especially since it's directed by P'Aof. And GMMTV rarely has sad endings…
Even UWMA (non-GMMTV) with their very sad start, had a kind of happy ending for In and Korn. So if Bad Buddy really choose sad ending, it is really a first, and I really don't think they will do that.
Most importantly this is not mainland Chinese BL drama where the BL couple ended up mostly in sad endings.
I mentioned just below that Pat and Pran has literally lived together in Pran's room since EP 7 ending, since they were officially boyfriends (that's a subtle hint in case anyone missed it)
It has always been their refuge away from the craziness of their friends and familial feuds. Now, even that place isn't safe for them anymore.
That's why I felt my heart break when Pat said, 'Let's get away from here.'
(And I want to thank someone earlier who commented how as contrasted to EP 5 post rooftop kiss scene, Pran laid his head on Pat's chest instead of walking away in sadness. Relationship development goal indeed!)
Can we appreciate for a moment how from EP 8, 9 and 10, Pat has been sleeping (and sitting and even cuddling) on Pran's bed (I should call it their bed) like the proud boyfriend he is?
Always so happy to see that, and every time I always remember the heartbreaking scene at the end of EP 4. Those scenes when Pat slept on Pran's bed reminds me just how far their relationship has developed.
Theory for EP 11 and EP 12. Don't take it seriously!! Just for fun.
Pat and Pran had a very sweet time on their own at the beach. They had an amazing time there away from all the angst and sorrow caused by their family.
Then the parents arrived (somehow they found them), and then began to force them to go back. Pat and Pran didn't want to, and they ran away to the sea, and drowned together as the finale of EP 11 as a most heartbreaking cliffhanger. (Just like what happened to Kwan and Riam, and just like Romeo and Juliet)
Then when EP 12 starts, it's actually just a nightmare for both Pat's dad and Pran's mum, who realised that their stupidity and ego could have led their sons to harm. They went to the same beach, begged for Pat and Pran's forgiveness, and accepted them.
(That is if P'Aof wants to use his supposed 'multiple endings'...)
27000 plus comments, Bad Buddy continues on a roll here.
Thanks for all the comments again, and whatever it is, let us share our thoughts here calmly and respectfully. Let us not overanalyse or be too obsessed over certain details.
I have heard lot if people saying it resembles Romeo and Julliet story. But its confusing for me bcoz i am not…
It’s not really so much like Romeo and Juliet but rather inspired by it.
The feud between families mimic that between the two families in Romeo and Juliet. Two members of those families fell in love with each other and met a tragic end.
The story is kind of similar but mostly different due to the different contexts as Romeo and Juliet took place in Renaissance era with a lot of feuding families while Bad Buddy takes place in a relatively modern day Thailand.

These are the things we should focus on!
Just enjoy the story as it comes to us!

Focus on EP 11 and let's not be distracted by all these.

Keep an open mind as we look forward to EP 11.
