Comment on [Discussion] The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn't a Guy at All - Ch. 109

  Hmm, idk. Looking at chapters 49 and 50, they had plans to go overseas, leaving Mitsuki behind. He says he chickened out and couldn’t do it. That’s when they broke up and she went alone.

  This doesn’t seem like not wanting to commit to their relationship, but rather not wanting to leave everything else behind to make it big somewhere else.

    Yeah, it’s harsh, I agree. I do think that from her perspective she could see that sequence of events as the sign that he wasn’t as committed as she was. Hanging out with Mitsuki is likely dragging up those old feelings from when they broke up.

    Thanks for the chapter reference, I was able to go back and find it real quick.

      he wasn’t as committed as she was.

      At the very least not committed enough to move abroad. But I suppose you could turn that around as well: she wasn’t committed enough to stay. He put his family first, she her dreams. Either one is understandable.

      Yeah probably, hopefully they can work it out so neither has regrets.

    I agree, sure they could have become a family if she would not have moved abroad or if he could have moved with her, so if anything the blame is 50/50. But in general it’s just live, you make decisions that are hard but seem right at the time and I think it’s not really helpful to blame yourself or others afterwards with "could have"s.
