Lovely

The whole time I was thinking that adoption should be a good answer for them, but I really liked Hari's take on how having a child should be a choice, not an alternative.
While I don't view adoption as an alternative, but more as a different way to have a child, I'm very happy about how they addressed it and showcase that in Hari's situation it would rather come off as a desperate alternative solution.
I like that they don't view it as something simple or a plan b.

I had to drop it because I really dislike everybody. There was not one single character I cared for, and their love and attraction for each other makes no sense in my eyes. Maybe because it is so short, it just feels like a compilation of cliche scenes in a otherwise less cliche premise, and that simply because the female lead is a divorced mother. However, it is really easy to forget that she has a child, since it really seems like she forgets it herself most of the time. Her relationship wit the male lead just feels like a substitute for her actually child. It's as if she has these maternal needs she has to carry out on someone else or else she'd die, therefor she falls for a man that could really not survive on his own if he had not the money to make people do the most basic daily chores for him. I've seen toddlers being more independent than him. Being scared in the dark just adds further on his character of the biggest man-child that this world has seen yet, only because he treats everybody as if they're less than him, it is not to forget that he is indeed a man and not a child *rolls eyes*. His obviously broken relationship with his mother shall make it clear that he has some mommy issues and that he secretly has been looking for a woman that could fill that void for him, but how convenient that his former housekeeper was a man, so of course he could not realize that.

After thought: why did Anna even think her plan would work? This actually only needed a good talk and all the misunderstandings would've been solved. The succession of her plan should also not guarantee Xixi getting back with her.

ep24: I just don't know what to say. It was too dumb.
There is so much I want to blame Jiaxian for, she is not relatable at all, but I do understand how her mind works. However, it really makes me mad. Everybody tells her how much they like her, but she still would not grew a pinch of confidence.
What I actually don't understand was how she thought it was a good idea to act like Anna's dietician. No matter, how I look at it, it comes of as incredibly sneaky, too. For a character that feels so guilty for everything, I would've expected her to think and empathize more, and to not be aware of her actually acting selfish instead.
I just don't understand how often Xiyi has to tell her, that he broke up with Anna and that she is the one that he chose, for her to finally believe it. Because she never did believe him is why Anna could fed into her anxiety and self-consciousness.

Finally came the moment where I stopped feeling sorry for Anna, I still think she initially did nothing wrong, and that she was treated extremely unfairly by both of them, but really ... I just cannot stress enough that if your bf not only cheats on you but gets someone pregnant and marries them and then partially blames you for the whole situation in your break up??? LEAVE. Xiyi is not actually a bad person, but he really treated her badly, so that's enough reason to leave his cheating ass. There really is no point in holding on to someone like that.

For Xiyi, I sometimes just don't know how his mind works. Honestly. I like that in this version he actually is very decisive compared to the Taiwanese and Korean ones, but boy .... he is really bad at setting boundaries. How did he think it was a good idea to let Anna kiss him on the cheek and throw him a belated b-day party, after she went completely nuts? It was so obvious that it was an act. Which woman with a sane mind and without any ulterior motives would try to be friends after being dumbed like that? Why get drunk with her? To the point that he can't get himself home alone? And what's with the lawyer refusing to nullify the divorce agreement? what kinda bullshit is that??? I'm rolling my eyes so hard I can see my brain.
When he ran after her, he should've just said "I don't ever want to divorce you", that would've de-escalated the situation immediately, because there is no room for misunderstanding. And why would Jiaxian even believe Xiyi would break up with her in that manner? he was two-timing Anna for months because he thought he had to do it face to face.

I do think their relationship still needed a lot of work, especially for marriage, but just because both of them were so dumb is that Anna's plan even worked.

the writer is the one from the romance of tiger and rose, I already loved wait for youth, but if it's just half as good as trotar, I'm gonna be blown away. the trailer also looked very cute

oh my

you did not really spoil me, you can see her in the intro/outro and she was already introduced in ep14. I really already expected it to happen. my "oh no" was for you saying that it get's more boring.

I would never get serious about it. my shipping does never get beyond "it would be cute if they would date", I'm not the kind who get's mad or disappointed if my delulu fantasies don't happen. I say I ship them but I'm very aware they are actors and that's their private life that doesn't concern me.
none one should get bullied online, whether they are getting shipped or not, though

oh no, not yet. why do they always have to include some unnecessary probably unlikable 3rd lead???

damn?? saw each other or reunited as in got back together? you want to tell me that there are 4 whole eps where the leads don't interact with each other??? ooff, I know who's gonna watch that in 2x speed

His wardrobe is overall very nice but they are a few questionable ones.

I gotta say, as for characters this is very relatable and realistic, the plot less, but I feel like they really did a good job giving the characters their distinctive ambitions, strengths and weaknesses.
As much as I love this, I did not need another 6 additional episodes. I thought we were finally nearing the end and I was happy because it reduced the chance of another break up which surely be very unnecessary and annoying, like they always are towards the end.

I'm normally not one of them delulu fans that sees a pairing they like and ships the actors in real life, but damn Johnny and Dilraba have such strong chemistry that I keep asking myself if it's even possible to act like that.

it's been very long since I watched this but I remember the ML to be super incredibly mean to her and that she was suffering in his household most of the time.

ep. 18: Dylan is just so weird in this version? like he is unrealistically nice just like that??? his vibes are all over the place because he doesn't seem like just a friend but also not really romantically interested either??? he did nothing wrong, but I can't help myself to dislike him. It's like he is just passively there, what even are his goals and ambitions??? nobody knows.

also, i wished they'd make Anna unlikable because so far I just feel too sorry for this girl. so far she literally did nothing wrong, she was just ambitious. can't hate a woman who follows her dreams. though, if your boyfriend betrays you like that, you better let him go.

I should dislike the ML, but I can't. He is very likable and I understand him, not that I condone his actions (not at all), but I get why he's not straight forward and all.

I think he was the homeless guy's patient and maybe something went wrong, so the ex received more drugs than allowed and the homeless guy was fired over it. I also think that the ex is probably the reason why the homeless guy isn't with his family anymore, either they're dead or maybe they moved away.

oh my he get's worse throughout the ep.

I'm not even done with ep8 but why is this so scary, y'all??????
her ex is everything I'm scared of omg. I initially thought that he went to prison because of an accident but I would not be surprised, or rather at this point I expect it, if it turns out that he had to go for a straight up murder.

I dunno why but ep 14 was really difficult to get through. I was so incredibly bored, but I really wanna continue for Eleanor Lee.

could it be that her wardrobe is good for a change??????
