Dear Myself...more like Dear Me! Do NOT Waste Your Time!

Hour after hour of heartache and betrayal as well as stupid and selfish acts........
What a major letdown this drama was. Please do not waste your time watching this show. This will mean, I promise you, forty five frustrating hours while you experience the lives of a whole slew of very unlikable people; people you want to shake or slap.
I was pulled into this drama by the initial storyline and the brilliant acting by a number of the main characters. Sadly, at the end i realized we were dealing with the filming impact of COVID and a lousy script. I am also thinking in-time social media reviews also had an influence on the emerging storyline. In addition, the theme and flavour of the first twenty one episodes seemed to be written by a different group of writers then the last ten episodes.
Zhu Li Long, playing Yiming, was the best actor in the show; amazing facial expressions and portrayed the epitome of a spineless lapdog. His character was by far the most disappointing as he fell twice into dysfunctional relationships.
The ending made no sense and was rushed and unfulfilling. There should have been one more episode to wrap everything up.
Only one character seemed to have growth during the drama ,Zhi Zhi, but even that growth storyline was a bit far-fetched with her colouress and gray for 95% of the show and a few scenes near the end where Zhi Zhi has transformed into a fierce professional woman...... in a matter of months.
This is so sad as the trailers and opening episodes held a promise that was never fulfilled. Three days after the final episode and I am feeling tricked.
Lesson learnt..do not propose to your girlfriend in public..you will be humiliated.
