"No, there's nothing wrong with us." Oh, hell no~

Their whole relationship is one massive red flag parade, toxic, and honestly exhausting to read. The female lead's life is already tragic from the start- literally, everyone around her fails her. And then she meets the male lead, and instead of things getting better, she becomes even more isolated, more trapped, and more dependent.

What frustrates me the most is that the story could have gone somewhere empowering. Imagine if everything still happens to her, but she learns how to use the man for her own survival, gets her degree, builds a life, and finally breaks the cycle- ... becoming nothing like her mother. That would have been growth.

But no, she never truly gets free.

The male lead is manipulative as hell, and I absolutely hate how the story keeps romanticizing it. And the female lead? The girl keeps coming back. Like girl, run away! I mean she cannot because he has her gps.
