I know i’m on a rant here but, by the way, a woman is not obligated to deal with someone who doesn’t know how to process their emotions or communicate especially when we’re talking about a grown ass man. Both people should be emotionally mature, healed, and capable of communicating before entering a long term, committed relationship. Women do not have to teach grown men how to regulate their emotions, communicate, or treat their partners with basic kindness. That is not anyone’s responsibility. She is your partner, not your mother
The way a lot of people perceive this drama says a lot. Being logical, having common sense, and being emotionally intelligent are three different things. The ML possessed 2 out of 3 of these, and each time he had to be either explained to (through his friends) or shown through reactions (whenever the FL disagreed with him or had to actually meet his coldness with coldness) that there were consequences to his verbal abuse. His character development was quite slow, in my opinion, because he consistently kept doing the same things. I’m glad they had a happy ending, I guess, but honestly, the FL being kind and loving is the only reason it played out that way. She honestly should’ve left his ass for good and met someone better
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who constantly bombards us with the word "toxic." It’s fascinating…
??? being toxic is not a psychological diagnoses. it’s a character flaw or trauma mechanism. and someone behaving imperfectly isn’t the issue bc we are all human at the end of the day no human is perfect. but when someone repeats certain stressful behaviors, words, or have manipulative tendencies , that is indeed being toxic
Why are some people calling this a toxic relationship? 😭 i am only seeing this in MDL so much negativity i…
it was toxic. to say it wasn’t and that it was just full of misunderstandings is ridiculous. especially when certain behaviors and words were harsh and consistent
Absolutely! He wanted her to confide in him about the poaching, harassment and now the promotion. And she has…
yes and bc she’s actually independent and don’t want it to be a power dynamic between them, people are saying she’s emotionally stunted and not considerate towards Luke 😂 like that man is emotionally unintelligent and she has been patient and kind this whole time
Bulan is breathtaking. I would’ve turned into a straight servant upon seeing someone that beautiful. In the novel, Bulan started treating Pheem like her gf instantly. I would’ve been so happy lmao Pheem was tripping 😂 but it’s ok bc even tho Bulan fell first, Pheem fell harder
Flora seems incredibly emotionally stunted. She has the emotional maturity of a child. The girl is so focused…
The reason you feel that way is because he is the one who consistently finds fault in anything she does that he doesn’t agree with, even when she isn’t doing anything wrong. He loves from a place of entitlement. When he’s upset, he acts cold and pushes her away, only to come back and try to make up with her once he’s cooled down. That’s not growth, it’s a pattern.
She isn’t treating him that way, so why would she need to apologize or “reflect”? What exactly is she being inconsiderate about? The only time they seem to have issues is when he isn’t her first point of contact when something happens, or when another man is involved.
He wants to be the center of her world, and he’s frustrated because she’s the first woman who doesn’t beg for his love the way the women before her apparently did. Instead, he’s on the receiving end of that dynamic now.
Painting her as the bad guy simply because she isn’t the one constantly apologizing every other business day, like he does, is ridiculous.
Could she have been a little more empathetic? Maybe. But why should she be expected to be so understanding toward someone who isn’t extending that same understanding to her? He’s a grown man. Why does she have to explain every single detail to him just for him to realize that he’s upset over something that doesn’t even warrant being upset about?
He’s not emotionally intelligent, yet she is and she’s younger than him.
that one person keeps spamming the comments about why the drama isn’t good is a lunatic….. maybe we should collectively just ignore them and let them talk to themselves
i'm refrerring to dramahereboth are red flagsthere's enough reasons to dislike both charactersbut atleast luke…
in the span of 6 years he hasn’t been improving enough. he consistently assumes the worst and says mean and hurtful things just bc he doesn’t know how to speak on his feelings and bc of his jealousy.. especially with someone that doesn’t mind communicating and who doesn’t lie to him. someone like that is exhausting, she hasn’t given him any reason for him to keep assuming she prefers other men just bc he sees her interacting with them. if he don’t trust her he shouldn’t be with her. then to keep realizing after that he is u wrong just to do it again later? it’s not growth, it’s a pattern
the ML temper tantrums when he’s jealous is mad annoying. he smart and stupid at the same time. i love how the FL doesn’t just let him do that and walks away when she feels like it
i’m glad the FL checked the 2ML like boy nobody gaf about your apology??? TF i’m glad she dodged that bullet. he weird and think he’s special when he’s not. why would she want a man who mother decides everything and who’s woman manipulates him… OH and who FRAMED her like if u don’t get out her face. she is too good for u sir
